A minor detail that makes Stolas's childhood even sadder is that none of his seemingly multiple siblings showed up to celebrate his birthday and apparently none of them play or read books with him either. You'd think he'd be on good terms with at least one of them, but apparently not.

Vivzie has claimed her story wouldn't be deeply rooted in real life, but thiz video has proven how much research her team devoted and it is beautiful.

Was Stolas' song to Octavia really that literal? It always struck me more as just showing her theatrical visions of a possible and rather extreme future, just for the sake of calming her after the nightmare- no matter what kind of nightmares she has, no matter what happens to him, to Hell, to all of existence itself, she will still be alright.

Even if Stolas is giving an actual prophesy in his song "you will be okay" in S1 Ep2, it is NOT shown with that star's destruction. Vivzi has confirmed that it wasn't a illusion or vision, but instead Stolas had teleported to a dying star system. His knowledge of Astronomy would give him knowledge of what stage a star's life is, so he would know if a random one was being destroyed that night and the grimore allowed him to teleport to it.

Anyone else theorizing that Blitzø might've only got with Verosika(my bad if spelled wrong) cause he might've known about the crystals and attempted to take them from her too? Could've been the same situation he's in with Stolas repeating itself now. Blitzø also said that his job was killing people before stealing the grimoire, maybe breaking up with her required Blitzø to find another way to earth aka Stolas' grimoire.

Can we just talk about the fact that normal peahens (female peacocks) are actually brown with iridescent green feathers on their necks? Stella and her brother are actually based on the rarer white form. (My family has raised many peacocks throughout the years) Edit: I didn't see the other comment correcting them when I posted this

Something funny about being a catholic and watching Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel is that, I actually haven’t heard of many of these demons 😅

You mentioned something about Stolas being reborn if he were killed that jogged an interesting bit of thinking. I don't think Octavia's name is actually Octavia. I think that's a nickname! As Octavia is the designated heir to take over if Stolas dies, I believe her name is also Stolas, and she's the eighth demon to be born to the role (hence the nickname Octavia). That would make Dad Stolas the seventh, which is a rather significant number.

What might be cool and hint that Stolas isn't as shortsighted or naive as he seems, Andrelaphis (or whatever) being promoted to Stolas' position only for Stolas to ominously go "good luck staring into the abyss, I would not blame you for blinking" would hint at a larger thing Stolas hasn't told the rest of the family.

I don't think Stolas sleeping with Blitz hurt Stella but may have hurt her social standing and that's why she wants him killed

I have a prediction with how Stolitz will turn out this season, with what we saw from Asmodean crystals it appears that Stolas is young to make one for blitz so he doesn’t need to see him for the book anymore to get to earth, stolas will do this because he doesn’t want to force blitz to do things he doesn’t want to do and it appears from his perspective that blitz doesn’t really like him in that way anymore, while blitz actually does but can’t process emotions correctly, which means when stolas gives him the crystal itll come off as stolas really thinking he was just an “impish little play thing” and feel awful that his feelings were validated and then out of anger and resentment he takes Striker up on his deal again to kill stolas because it’s blitz so ofc he misinterprets stolas’ feelings and both are too in their own heads to actually talk about their feelings, this then causes some big climax where it either leaves them completely broken up, stolas dying only for blitz to find out what he actually felt, or blitz finding out before stolas is killed and then backstabs Striker, which then in turn causes them to FINALLY talk and work things out, I put my money more on the last option, this will probably be no where near the exact way it goes but it’d be cool if any of my ideas get shown

I don’t think the entire thing is birds. I think high power familys make up lots of them thus the birds. But there’s more different ones like how stolas father can turn into different things before picking an owl.

My idea with the heir and the ranks is, unless killed by angelic weapons they get reborn but with each "Kill" they lose one level of rank till they are so unimportant and powerless they can be marked on the annually "Extermination List". That at least would explain why they need heirs if they still could get reborn. Every rebirth costs power. And Power is something you either get granted by given/taken from others or being born with.

If Beelzebub is a "Queen" of the Ars Goetia as Bael/Baal, it would certainly fit well with what appears to be a bee/honey theme for her realm and products.

just realized that the reason stolas probably invited the imps to the harvest moon festival is because he probably heard stella call about the assassination and trusted blitz would protect him

That star dying that Stolas & child Octavia saw was not tied to her birth. Vivzi confirmed that Stolas used his knowledge of the stars to know what star was dying in current time then opened a portal and teleported there to witness it as he sung his lullaby to his daughter.

One thing that we need to keep in mind when doing speculation on helluva boss is that it does not exist in a vacuum. It is set in the same world as hasbin hotel and runs parallel to it. Stolas said in his song to his daughter that the seven rings would collapse but she would be okay. We know that Charlie is seeking to find a way to redeem sinners and they may find it possible to redeem a demon as well allowing them into heaven so it could be possible for Octavia to be safe in heaven when hell begins to collapse (possibly caused by Charlie’s plan succeeding to well). Thoughts on this theory?

Honestly I like the idea that each demon would owned certain territory in each specific country’s depending on certain family’s. Also it make sense why Stolas is a bird, since it’s likely His father randomly chose what species his son was going to be or chose a bird likely due to fate.🤔🐱

Actually. Asmodeus is described having a rooster tail and rooster legs in some descriptions. So, making a rooster inspired design is kinda accurate. Not sure were his dragon steed went tho
