Helluva Boss

Meet Alice. She's a Serial Killer, Black Widow, possibly cannibal and cultist. In short, she is evil beyond hope of redemption, and most of her victims don't see her coming until its too late. Emphasis on "almost" because Bob does see her coming and has a gun within reach. "When you get to hell, tell them Bob sent you," he gloats before he lets her have it.

He has no idea how right he is. While her damned soul has indeed arrived in Hell, Alice still seethes for revenge and wants nothing less than for someone to murder Bob so he can burn with her. But he's there and she's here, who can help remedy this?

Well, in most cases she would not ask the Immediate Murder Professionals (or I.M.P.s) to do the job, but in this case, that may be the only option.

Helluva Boss is an adult YouTube cartoon created by Vivienne Medrano and set in the universe of Hazbin Hotel, featuring the I.M.P.s, a truly unique Murder, Inc. Operating out of Hell itself, this small band of killers is able, through a special deal with one of the local rules, enter the mortal world and hunt down any mortal a damned soul has a grudge against. For a price, of course. All while making ends meet, dealing with demons (real and internal) while maintaining some semblance of a normal life. Well, normal as fat as Hell is concerned.

The main cast consists of:

It features Brandon Rogers (also co-writer) as Blitzo, Richard Steven Horvitz as Moxxie, Erica Lindbeck as Loona and Marti Noxon as Millie. It had a successful pilot on YouTube back at November 2019. It is also notable for having celebrities voicing minor characters such as Norman Reedus and Mara Wilson.
 * Blitzo (the "o" is silent): The main protagonist, founder and manager of the I.M.P.s known for his pride and shortsighted ego, a demon with many inner demons of his own.
 * Millie: A perky, bubbly, cheerful young demon-girl if you're on her side, but the last thing you'll ever see if you aren't.
 * Moxxie: Millie's loving hubby, often the Only Sane Man of the group, though also the Butt Monkey and Chew Toy.
 * Loona: Blitzo's adoptive daughter and Sassy Secretary, known for her snarky humor.
 * Stolas: The aforementioned local ruler and Evil Mentor to the group, possibly possessing just as much inner angst as Blitzo.

"Fizz: That robo-me made us more money entertaining those kids than the ones we sell to get you freaks off, if you know what I mean! Bwa-huh-huh-ha! Patron: Oh, I know what you mean! I have four of them! Fizz: (looks very uncomfortable) Okay, keep that guy far away from me..."
 * Abusive Parents:
 * Affably Evil:
 * Millie acts like a Nice Girl, but is still a hired gun who remains unrepentant of the murders she commits or is an accomplice to.
 * Stolas, sometimes.
 * All There in the Script: The names of the three C.H.E.R.U.B.s are Cletus, Collin and Keenie, but this can only be confirmed by their names in the credits.
 * Amazingly Embarrassing Parent: Uh, Stolas. In "Loo-Loo Land", his rather... explicit greeting to Blitzo causes Octavia to react much like any embarrassed teenager would.
 * Anthropomorphic Personification: Asmodeus is the embodiment of Lust; this suggests the other Seven Deadly Sins might have them.
 * Arranged Marriage: Stolas and Stella, and they despise each other. As revealed in "The Circus", the marriage was arranged by his father and her brother in order to sire an heir, which was successful. The only reason Stella stays with him is because she enjoys tormenting him, while the only reason he stays with her is for Octavia's sake. However, in the same episode, he finally has had enough and tells her off, though this obviously is not over, as she swears to make him pay...
 * Asshole Victim: Most marks killed by the protagonists clearly had it coming.
 * At Least I Admit It: This is a common trend of I.M.P.'s clients. The teacher in "Murder Family" never denies she is a murderer, she just wants her two-timing husband's mistress to suffer as well. In "C.H.E.R.U.B.", neither Loopty or Lyle deny their atrocities or the fact that they committed them out of greed. In both cases, none of them feel any remorse at all and none of them claim their fate is unwarranted or undeserved.
 * An Axe to Grind: When Millie gets angry enough, she pulls out a battle ax, and when that happens, run for cover. In one episode she uses it offscreen to slaughter a group of lumberjacks.
 * Bare Your Midriff: Loona's top shows off a lot of her stomach.
 * Big Bad: Stella is the main antagonist of season 1, and season 2 seems to be on track to make her even worse.
 * Big Damn Heroes: Stolas is clearly not a "hero" but he implements an awesome use of this Trope in "Truth Seekers".
 * Bi the Way: Moxxie is bisexual.
 * Ambiguously Bi: Blitzo and Stolas. Possibly Loona. In "Spring Broken" the I.M.P.s MO is for her (in human disguise) to flirt with victims to lead them to their doom, and seeing as some victims were female, it's possible.
 * Bittersweet Ending: "OZZIE'S" is borderline Downer Ending. Moxie and Millie end up salvaging their anniversary when Millie says she wants to hear the rest of her husband's song, and they wander into the night after the club owner Ozzie kicks them out for knocking out Fizzarolli. Stolas and Blitzo, however, have a serious fight owing to the fact that.
 * Blatant Lies:
 * Bleep, Dammit!: During Stolas' first rant, "fucking" was accidentally uncensored.
 * Bloodier and Gorier: The cartoon is more violent than Hazbin Hotel.
 * Bloody Hilarious: But also a lot sillier.
 * Bondage Is Bad: Stolas is part of the nobility of Hell, and it was hinted at early - and confirmed in "Harvest Moon Festival" - that he is into BDSM, although oddly, he seems to prefer being the submissive. "Truth Seekers" suggests that the "toys" they use include bear traps.
 * Brain Bleach: Stolas gives Blitzo a description of oral sex that is so-disgusting-the-MA-rated-cartoon-bleeps-out-most-of-it, Blitzo (who is, remember, a demon) hangs up on him, then breaks the mobile phone in half, then smashes it to little bits, then liquifies the pieces in a blender. Then he gives the liquified remains to Loona, tells her to drink it - which she does - and then go to the bridge over the freeway and "shit off it!"
 * Chew Toy: Moxxie; seriously, if this guy has dialogue with any named character other than Millie that consists of two or more lines, than the dialogue will have at least one joke made at his expense, and he is also more frequently a victim of embarrassing slapstick violence than the entire rest of the cast combined.
 * Cluster Bleep Bomb: Whenever Stolas has erotic thoughts with Blitzo, expect most of it to be bleeped.
 * Crazy Prepared: Blitzo's desk has alarms for More Coffee, Soiled My Pants, Horny Client, Deranged Client, Client Giving Birth, Ghost, and Stolas. Of course, the series takes place in Hell, where those could all be legitimate concerns.
 * Creator Thumbprint: Elements of Brandon Rogers' videos appear in this cartoon, such as the frequent use of "asshole".
 * Daddy's Girl:
 * Octavia to Stolas; "The Circus" strongly implies that he is trying very hard to be the loving parent that his own father refused to be. Octavia seems afraid that her dad might abandon her, but so long as Stolas draws breath, he will not let that happen.
 * This is why Blitzo makes Loona his favorite employee and dotes on her, despite Moxie accurately pointing out she's a terrible secretary and employee; she's his adopted daughter, and he wants this trope to happen. "Adopted hellhound" technically, but that's just details. Loona isn't into it; she hates how Blitzo babies her, but admits to Octavia in "Seeing Stars" that.
 * Demon Lords and Archdevils:
 * Stolas is supposedly one with more power and influence than Alastor.
 * Asmodeus is the ruler of the Circle of Lust, and is someone even Stolas is terrified of.
 * Mammon is briefly mentioned as Fizzarolli's boss; supposedly an industrialist who markets a variety of products, such as breakfast cereal and beverages. But as of the end of season one, he has yet to appear.
 * Satan is not another name for Lucifer, but a separate entity, and seems to be revered by imps as a deity. While only referenced to, the best Fan Theory is that he is the ruler of the Circle of Wrath, as most imps live there.
 * The Gluttony and Envy layers have towns called Beelzehaven and Levitowne, so one can assume their rulers are Beelzebub and Leviathan.
 * Denser and Wackier: It's more comedy-driven than Hazbin Hotel.
 * Bloody Hilarious: ...but with far more violence and gore.
 * Didn't Think This Through: Poor Moxie suffers this in "OZZIE'S". He takes his wife to an exclusive couples-only nightclub for their first wedding anniversary and surprises her by serenading her on stage with a sweet song about how powerful his love is. Then the owner and Fizzarolli join in, turning it into a Villain Song with Asmodeus asking What Were You Thinking? Asmodeus runs a nightclub whose entertainment centers on Lust! He admits the song is sweet but killing the club vibes, encouraging Moxie to try again and find something raunchier to perform. Moxie, in Oh Crap mode, simply can't, exposing himself and Millie to further ridicule. Millie has to knock out Fizzarolli to allow Moxie to finish his song, which leads to Asmodeus kicking them out for assaulting his employee. Not that they mind, but still.
 * Disproportionate Retribution: While Blitzo and Verosika clearly have a history of bad blood, the conflict between the two factions in "Spring Broken" started when she took his parking space.
 * Dragon-in-Chief: As of episode 5, Striker seems the most dangerous and darkest villain to date, although he is working for Stella.
 * Expy:
 * Given the "decor" of their house, the eponymous cannibal family in "Murder Family" seems likely based on the Sawyer Clan from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
 * Same deal with the DHORKS who lampoon the Men in Black
 * Early-Bird Cameo: Astute viewers will notice Blitzo, Moxie, and Loona appearing briefly in Hazbin Hotel during Charlie's song at the studio.
 * Equal Opportunity Evil: One of Stolas' good points is that he doesn't share the disdain many upper class residents of Hell show towards the lower class. Naturally, he's sleeping with Blitzo, an imp, but the episode "The Circus" shows him as being courteous and polite towards his father's butler (also an imp) and portraits of Stolas as an infant on the walls of the manor, where he has a stuffed toy that looks like an imp-version of Max (from Sam and Max). Clearly he has never let prejudice or classism cloud his perception of the society of Hell.
 * Even Evil Has Standards:
 * Blitzo is a Mean Boss who insults folks he likes (and let's not get started on what he says to folks he doesn't like) but he won't stoop to personal insults, clearly feeling ashamed when a truth serum compels him to do so.
 * Monster Clown: Fizz doing his raunchy stand-up comedy routine at OZZIE's:
 * Blitzo is a Mean Boss who insults folks he likes (and let's not get started on what he says to folks he doesn't like) but he won't stoop to personal insults, clearly feeling ashamed when a truth serum compels him to do so.
 * Monster Clown: Fizz doing his raunchy stand-up comedy routine at OZZIE's:


 * Oh course, one could reason that just because he promotes a product doesn’t mean he has to like it.

"Agent One: Good god why are we only using weapons from Japan's Edo Period! Agent Two: Hey, the Edo Period was badass and you know it!"
 * Evil Mentor: Stolas, mostly via being Blitzo's funder and the reason they can travel to and from the mortal world.
 * Eyes Do Not Belong There: Stolas has an extra, smaller pair of eyes above the "regular" ones. Oddly, these extra eyes appear on the brim of his hat whenever he wears one.
 * Horny Devils: Blitzo's former girlfriend - now hated rival - Verosika Mayday, possibly. She seems to be the leader of a cabal of both male and female tempter-demons, and Blitzo calls her a "Succu-bitch", but their exact designation is not stated.
 * The Fagin:
 * Fan Disservice: Whether you are gay or straight, the idea of Blitzo with Stolas is very unsettling.
 * Fan Nickname: Less a nickname than an alternate spelling, many fans have taken to using "Blitzø" to draw attention to the unpronounced "O" in Blitz's name.
 * Fighting a Shadow: The jester that appears in "Loo Loo Land" is not Fizzarolli, but a robot duplicate that the corporation that owns the park is marketing. The actual Fizzarolli doesn't appear until "OZZIE'S".
 * From the Mouths of Babes: The kid in the pilot is surprisingly sweary.
 * Fun With Acronyms:
 * The I.M.P.s are the Immediate Murder Professionals. A Meaningful Name, seeing as they are indeed imps, a sub-species of demons.
 * Their angelic rivals the C.H.E.R.U.B.s are this too, although it is not revealed what it stands for.
 * The D.H.O.R.K.S. too; again, no clue as of their first appearance what it stands for, but one can assume the "D" stands for "demon", given their goals.
 * Genius Bonus: Asmodeus has three heads - much like the mythological figure he is based on.
 * Gone Horribly Right:
 * Gosh Dang It to Heck: Moxxie tries to keep his language clean.
 * Heel Face Door Slam: At the end of "OZZIE'S," Stolas is remorseful about the fact that he didn't up for Blitzo when Asmodeus started insulting them both in song form, namely the accusation that Stolas is only using Blitzo as a demon sex toy and squandered his stable marriage. This was after he dressed up nice for the date and says it's wonderful to have a proper night out together. Blitzo has no room to talk, since he only invited Stolas to have a date and get into the club, skipping the line, and didn't defend him either. That's why he doesn't call out Stolas for his lack of defense. As an apology, Stolas says they don't have to have sex when inviting him inside the manor, but talk about what their relationship actually is and what they both want out of it. Blitzo thinks it's a trick and says he's going home.
 * Hell Hound: Loona is a Furry version. As is one-shot character Vortex from "Spring Broken".
 * Hellevator: Demons travel from one Circle of Hell to another via means of an elevator that's works more like a train. It's the size of a theater, with similar fancy decor.
 * Hero Antagonist: The C.H.E.R.U.B.s and D.H.O.R.K.S. could be considered this, although both truly push the limits of what can be considered "heroic".
 * Hidden Depths:
 * Blitzo started to get this in "Spring Broken" with the revelation that Loona is his adopted daughter.
 * Stolas' first two appearances portrayed him as little but a pervert and Depraved Bisexual. Then came "Loo-Loo Land", where he is revealed to have a daughter whom he deeply loves, and is trapped in an unhappy and loveless marriage. Subsequent episodes seem intent on exploring these depths even more.
 * Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: While this depends on the definition of "villain", the show has some antagonists who might qualify:
 * Verosika. Breakout Character, maybe, but as a Horny Devil, not very competent. A leader of a group of other succubi and incubi, Verisika figures a group of hormone-crazed college students on spring break are easy prey. She's right, and easily tempts them into an orgy of bestial lust, but makes the mistake of doing it on a public beach. The end of the episode sees Blitzo's crew - who were very careful to leave no witnesses to their evil deeds - fleeing back to Hell while the police surround Verosika and her group, likely leaving a lot for her to explain to whatever Overlord she's working for.
 * The D.H.O.R.K.S. are this when you think about it. This group fancies themselves demon-hunters, yet they got their asses handed to them by four imps, the weakest subclass of demon. Stolas lets the two leaders live because he feels everyone else will just regard them as crazy Conspiracy Theorists, although the final scene shows he might be wrong...
 * Large and In Charge:
 * Stolas is thin, gaunt, and gangly, but more than twice as tall as Blitzo. Even his daughter stands head-and-shoulders over most of the main cast.
 * Asmodeus is obviously above Stolas in the infernal hierarchy, and almost twice as big.
 * Ludd Was Right: Hilarious lampooned in "Truth Seekers", where it's clear that the reason the D.H.O.R.K.S. aren't doing so well against the I.M.P.s is due to their reliance on archaic weapons:


 * Although, to be completely fair, the D.H.O.R.K.S. do use very modern technology for everything else, and put up a pretty decent fight; they would clearly have won had Stolas not appeared to give the I.M.P.s backup.


 * Mean Boss: If you need proof that Blitzo ain't a nice guy, in "Murder Family", he tells Moxxie (who nearly messed up the whole job by feeling undeserved sympathy for the mark) that he'll rape him and Millie if he pulls a stunt like that again.
 * Morality Pet: Loona for Blitzo; it makes more sense when we learn she's his adopted daughter. He dotes on her and defends her carelessness on the job to Moxie.
 * Ms. Fanservice:
 * Loona's got a lot of sex appeal going for her, thanks to her skimpy goth ensemble and grumpy devil-may-care attitude. And if you aren't a furry or otherwise aren't into anthro characters, her human form is just as, if not sexier than her usual wolf girl form.
 * Verosika too; she's quickly become a fan favorite with a lot of viewers hoping for reconciliation between her and Blitzo.
 * Murder, Inc.: The main cast.
 * Noodle Incident: Several, most of them Black Comedy examples. For instance, in "The Harvest Moon Festival", Millie's parents object to her competing in the Pain Games, as the last ones resulted in 15 funerals; Millie protests, claiming she only caused 9 of them.
 * The Nose Knows: Loona is able to track prey or her co-workers this way.
 * OOC Is Serious Business:
 * According to Loona, if Blitzo tells you to do something without using any innuendos, euphemisms, or swear-words, you'd best do what he says because he is dead serious.
 * Most of season one has Stolas dialing Blitzo for booty call and grimoire negotiations, flirting with him at the worst times. "OZZIE'S" has Blitzo call him for once, and Stolas lightens up on hearing his "thrust" call him out on a date. He dresses up nicely, and throws off Blitzo by asking how his day went when the latter is spying on Moxie and Millie, because Stolas has never had a normal conversation with him. Why is Stolas unusually attentive and treating Blitzo like an actual boyfriend? Stella officially moved out with partial custody of Octavia, they've proceeded with the divorce, and it is finally registering for Stolas that his old live is over.
 * One Woman Army: Millie. In "Truth Seekers", Blitzo claims it would take a "roided-up hippo" to stop her when she's angry, and in the previous scene she's already proven it, slaughtering half the security in the facility where Blitzo and Moxxie are being held captive.
 * Only Sane Man: Moxie is this of I.M.P.; his wife Millie is certainly competent at killing and bodyguard duties, but she's less willing to question Blitzo's methods. The pilot has him call out Blitzo for spending all their funds on one commercial. In the first episode, he questions the wisdom of shooting a mother while she's serving dinner, while her family could get caught in the crossfire; sure this leads to them getting busted, but Moxie made a good point. The second episode has him call out Blitzo for starting a fistfight with an animatronic and setting all of Loo Loo Land on fire rather than do the job they were paid for: protecting Stola and Octavia. He may find Loo Loo Land creepy but saw how happy Millie was.
 * Owl Be Damned: Stolas and his family are tall, human-shaped demons with owl-like features and feathers.
 * Paper-Thin Disguise: In "C.E.R.U.B." the I.M.P.s use several disguises apiece, but almost all of them are pretty bad.
 * The Peeping Tom: Blitzo has been known to do this to Moxxie and Millie, and does little to hide it. His interest in their sex life is rather... disturbing. They both give him a What the Hell, Hero? about it in "OZZIE'S" when attempting to defend their sex life by describing it as a means to make "missionary" sex exciting; Moxie stands horrified onstage, while Millie is plain enraged. Notably, when Fizzarolli and Ozzie start on Blitzo and Stola for their relationship, Millie stops the song not to save them but to let Moxie finish his sincere love ballad.
 * Pet the Dog: "Ozzie's" starts with Blitzo in an unusually good mood after a successful hit on lumberjacks. He offers to take the team out for drinks to celebrate. Then he ruins the moment when Moxie politely declines and says he made plans with Millie, saying he'll come with them on their anniversary trip.
 * Pointy-Haired Boss: Blitzo can accurately be described as "Michael Scott with a few screws loose". He's an utterly incompetent leader, but he makes up for his shortcomings with his skills in other fields, which in his case are murder and pursuing profitable venues.
 * Politically-Incorrect Villain:
 * Blitzo isn't afraid of casually calling Moxxie "retarded".
 * Also, Stella seems less upset by Stolas cheating on her than she does by the fact he's cheating with the lower class.
 * Asmodeus is as bad as Stella, mocking Stolas - in public - for sleeping with an imp. Granted, he mocks Stolas for not thinking of the consequences, and sleeping with Blitzo whom Fizzarolli and Verosika describe as selfish.
 * Pounds Are Animal Prisons: A Flashback shows that not only are animal shelters in Hell like this, but orphaned hellhounds like Loona are kept in the same facility; clearly, hellhounds are considered only slightly better than animals in Hell's Fantastic Caste System. Ironically, however, as bad as the place was, Loona was a month away from being "aged out" when Blitzo found her there (as in, turning 18, where she would have been released and abandoned) and was terrified at the thought of leaving, knowing she would likely starve.
 * Professional Killer: The main cast, though seriously, in most cases you'd be better off hiring someone else.
 * Precision F-Strike: Moxxie does this infrequently.
 * Questionable Consent: At first implied with Stolas and Blitzo's relationship, that Stolas treats him like a toy in the pilot and first episode and that Blitzo sleeps with him to gain access to the Grimoire that his business needs to function. We find out later that their relationship is more complicated than that, and Stolas actually does have feelings for Blitzo.
 * Reality Ensues: Plenty in "OZZIE'S":
 * Sure, Stolas was in an unhappy marriage with a woman he didn't love, and sleeping with Blitzo gives him the closest thing to true love despite Blitzo's belief that their interactions are transactional. Doesn't change the fact that he cheated on his wife, and their daughter Octavia has to deal with the emotional fallout when Stella learns about Blitzo. Asmodeus explicitly calls out Stolas for this in his Villain Song, that he gave up his family for a "thrust". Octavia says that thanks to her dad prioritizing a random squeeze over stability, she feels like she can't trust him anymore. When Stolas and Stella divorce, Stella retains partial custody of their daughter because of said infidelity.
 * Asmodeus and Fizzarolli also point out that Stolas and Blitzo don't have a healthy relationship as it is. Fizz and Verosika assert that Blitzo only cares about himself and won't reciprocate in a relationship, how he treats the people he claims to care about like shit, including romantic partners. Blitzo can't deny this, considering he invited Stolas on a date purely to enter the club and spy on his employees, when Moxie put his foot down and said Blitzo wasn't invited to their anniversary. Stolas also buries his face in a menu in embarrassment when Asmodeus calls Blitzo his "thrust," confirming that he doesn't know how to communicate that he wants more than a carnal relationship. If he had been able to assert himself the way Moxie and Millie did, Blitzo may have been more likely to talk things out with him at the end of the episode.
 * It doesn't matter if you're defending your employees; describing their sex lives in detail to a public crowd is gross misconduct. Moxie ends up in Heroic BSOD in "OZZIE'S" when Blitzo attempts to defend his and Millie's lifestyle from the King of Lust Asmodeus, horrified to learn his boss was stalking him, and Millie shoots Blitzo a Death Glare from the audience. As a result, when Fizzarolli turns his attention to his former friend and current rival, the most Millie does is knock out the clown but she and Moxie leave Blitzo to deal with the emotional fallout.
 * Red Light District: Fittingly, the Circle of Lust is like this. Asmodeus (or "Ozzie", as he's called by the locals) rules the place and makes it clear that expressions of love are not welcome or wanted unless they lead to sex and debauchery.
 * Reptiles Are Abhorrent: Striker is a rattlesnake-themed cowboy demon assassin.
 * Rock Me, Asmodeus: Literal example. Asmodeus' introduction coming with a Villain Song in a fancy nightclub in the Circle of Lust, the layer of Hell he is the ruler of.
 * Running Gag: "Blitzo - the O is silent."
 * Sex for Services: Blitzo's relationship with Stolas, more or less. Stolas is letting Blitzo use the tome that allows Blitzo access to the human world in exchange for sex acts which are likely best left undescribed. Although, there are plenty of hints that they might have genuine feelings towards each other.
 * Sir Swearsalot: While everyone in this show cusses, Stolas' language can be so dirty that much of his dialogue is bleeped out in at least two episodes, and this is a show where "fuck" is not bleeped out.
 * Shown Their Work: Asmodeus is a demon with three heads, much like he is often depicted in folklore.
 * Southern Belle: Millie has that accent and is quite charming.
 * Talking the Monster to Death: A Perspective Flip example in "Truth Seekers", where Blitzo and Moxxie (who are the "monsters") are caught by the The D.H.O.R.K.S. and try their best to Be as Unhelpful as Possible in order to drive them nuts. It almost works.
 * Take That: It likes poking fun at insurance with Blitzo saying "The fuck is insurance?"
 * Token Good Teammate: Zigzagged with Moxie and overlapping with Only Sane Man; he is willing to commit murder if it's his job, but the pilot has him wracked with guilt and remorse over shooting a child by accident, . In the first episode proper, Moxie questions why the image for target practice is a family, because why would "innocent" children be a paid target?
 * Tome of Eldritch Lore: Stolas' Grimoire, possibly. It seems to contain information of prophecy, astronomy, and astrology relating to the mortal world, although for now, it's primary use is opening portals, able to do so to Earth, elsewhere in Hell (as Stolas did in "Harvest Moon Festival", and to other worlds and realities ("Lu Lu Land".)
 * "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Blitzo and Moxxie get this from their respective subconscious in "Truth Seekers", although Moxxie's subconscious is easier on him.
 * Unholy Matrimony:
 * Subverted with Stolas and Stella; they clearly despise each other and Stolas is not a faithful spouse. It is hinted their marriage was an arranged one.
 * Played straight with Millie and Moxie, possibly the only couple in the history of animation to overlap this Trope with Sickeningly Sweethearts.
 * Villain Protagonist: Blitzo and his crew tend to be the lesser evils of each story, but are still demons who kill for profit.
 * Winged Humanoid: Verosika, although whether they are functional or not is as-yet unknown, as she has not been seen using them to fly.
 * Wouldn't Hurt a Child:
 * Downplayed with Blitzo, who won't unless he's contracted to do so.
 * Loona is a different story, having at least once kicked an infant in a crib simply because she was angry.
 * Zigzagged with Moxie. The thought of hurting a child is enough to make Moxie hold his fire and debate the ethical ramifications of such an action, and the pilot has him overcome with guilt when he shoots a preteen by accident. While he does fight one in the first episode to rescue himself, he reassures the family that they weren't the target, so he'll use their phone to call the police and let the "Earthly" authorities handle their punishment. This way they get a shot at redemption. When.
