THANK YOU your criticism of fizzarolli is spot on! i never understood why blitzo has a close childhood friend that he performed with whos life he ruined in the fire that he reconnects with later in life (and also has connections in the lust ring) but also a sister that he performed with whos life he ruined in the fire that he wants to reconnect with later in life (and also has connections in the lust ring)
vivziepop, if you removed the childhood crush thing, these would be the same character.
THAT'S WHAT IM SAYING YOU GET IT!! YOU GET IT
sure, their personalities are different, but their functionality in blitz's story is so similar it baffles me. a big issue both these shows have is the redundancy of some of the cast. you can delete fizz and reassign his roles to other characters and have everything work fine - even the stolitz parallel in fizzarozzie could be re-attributed to like, bee and tex, who blitz knows through loona (those characters are both relevant to loona as well, so two birds one stone, less characters cluttering everything up), and the whole 'failed romantic arc' thing… verosika is right there. so blitz could also know bee and tex through her...
furthermore, BARBIE AND VEROSIKA LITERALLY APPARENTLY KNEW EACH OTHER WHICH IS LIKE, THE CONNECTION IS RIGHT THERE WHAT ARE YOU DOING ITS RIGHT THERE WHY DID WE MAKE A WHOLE NEW CHARACTER!!! WHY DID WE MAKE A WHOLE NEW CHARACTER AND THEN THIS RIDICULOUS CONVOLUTED REASON AS TO WHY THEY WERE IN THE SAME PLACE AT THE SAME TIME IN OOPS!!! VIVZIENNE POPSICLE!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!! WHY ARE WE STILL INTRODUCING ALL THESE REDUNDANT CHARACTERS WITH 1 MILLION OVERLAPPING TRAITS!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
#helluva boss critical#ask#this is an aside but the romantic aspect of fizz always felt out of place to me#because the circus felt like it was kind of meant to represent blitz's family#bridges literally burned. he was born and raised there.#literal family symbol on his big fuckin melon. ep that introduces his shitty father.#and then pivot to go 'ok so heres his childhood bestie and crush!' instead of. his sister. in the ep his childhood was shown#blitz wanting/missing a family is important to him except when the narrative forgets about that#which is why i would keep barbie over fizz if i could write one of them out#she feels more thematically relevant#im actually quite lukewarm to her as a character lol#when are they gonna introduce moxxie2 who's a bit ruder but has a mob boss father and works under blitz#(its not moxxie though its a new character. this is a different essential character guys)
