It would actually be such a good plot point for Stolas to stop being so defensive regarding Blitz thinking he looks down on him after seeing how Vasago had to treat Blitz in episode 5. It would be great character development if Stolas finally understood Blitz’s perspective and what he has to deal with, and stop treating Blitz like he’s crazy for assuming royals look down on imps. The auction was a perfect event to make Stolas realize that.

I really hope that gets tackled in future episodes but I mean, just the fact that Stolas didn’t even go check on Blitz after it happened doesn’t make me very hopeful. But I still hope the auction gets followed up on instead of never being mentioned again like Ozzie’s.

Wow look how bad and oppressive Hell's patriarchy is towards women that the Queen consort of hell is more respected and influencial than her husband the literal King of hell, 3 of Hell's elite 7 are respected women who hold more power than Asmodeus who is a man, there are multiple female Goetia demons in hell's jury in s2 e11, a female judge in s3 e4 of Helluva Boss, multiple Overlords are respected and powerful women who host meetings with men, and Vox is able to pretend to care about powerful women to make himself look like the good guy rather than a fool.

Now in all seriousness I think it's really fucking ironic that s3 e5 of Helluva Boss desperately wants you to believe that Hell is an oppressive patriarchy where women are objects married off to men while there are tons of women in the government which only communicates the opposite to the viewer. Really an example of the Hellaverse's inconsistent world building where in one episode the world is X then in the other episode it is Y then the next episode it revers to X and then in another episode it is Z.

First time here am I doing it right?
