The momentum continues in Hazbin Hotel’s second episode of the season, ‘Storyteller’, which showcases the most captivating and headbanging song of the series thus far. This doesn't detract from the storyline and character development present in this episode focused on Heaven, where Sir Pentious copes with the starkly different environment compared to Hell.

‘Storyteller’ serves as a great companion to ‘New Pentious’. While Charlie battles with her survivor’s guilt and attempts to redefine herself from a warmongering angel killer to a being focused on redemption, Heaven is abuzz with the notion that redemption might be attainable, alongside fears of a potential retaliation from sinners due to the numerous Exterminations Heaven secretly authorized. The powerful themes explored in this episode are substantial and engaging, allowing the overall narrative of the season to progress in intriguing directions for what’s ahead.

Redemption is undoubtedly central to these themes as Pentious’ arrival is met with skepticism by most in Heaven, while Emily and a few other angels express excitement about the possibilities. Sir Pentious becomes the show’s first character to receive a flashback, revealing his life on Earth as a reclusive and socially awkward scientist who witnessed Jack the Ripper commit his first murder without reporting it to the authorities. This flashback adds depth to Sir Pentious’ character and motivations from the previous season, hinting at why he is the first sinner to be redeemed and welcomed into Heaven.

It is also poignant that Pentious can only think about his friends in Hell and yearns to reunite with them. A notable background moment occurs during the song ‘Like You’, where Pentious is seen destroying various items that he later incorporates into his ill-fated device intended to return him to Hell. Alex Brightman and Shoba Narayan shine as Pentious and Emily, with her vibrant positivity—akin to Charlie’s—serving to uplift him.

A significant aspect of the episode is the deeper exploration of how Heaven functions, with its overt brightness and positivity clashing with the conflicting politics of its council. Amid their feelings of betrayal regarding the Exterminations and fears of Hell’s resurgence, the introduction of Adam’s song Abel—voiced by Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump—highlights his new position as the leader of the Exorcists over Lute, suggesting that Heaven may be facing more internal strife than it has in a long time. It’s compelling to witness Sera grappling with her own inner conflict and guilt after permitting the Exterminations, viewing it as a regrettable necessity for Heaven’s security. Her acceptance of redemption and acknowledgment of the souls lost adds depth to this stoic character, and her solo, ‘Sera’s Confession’, performed by Patina Miller and Liz Callaway, serves as a powerful ballad reflecting her journey.

Yet, the standout moment in ‘Storyteller’ belongs to Jessica Vosk in Lute’s emotionally charged rock ballad ‘Gravity’. This track could be the best in the series, highlighted by its powerful lyrics and stunning animation, with Lute's choreography and striking visuals captivating the audience. Scenes such as her imaginary Adam passing through her knife or her walking up a wall evoke the image of an angry caged bird, making ‘Gravity’ a memorable scene. Vosk’s vocals convey Lute's rage and sorrow exceptionally well, engendering sympathy for her. Although redemption is a focal point, it’s clear that Lute will harbor no regret for her actions and will persist in eliminating every sinner she encounters.

‘Storyteller’ is an outstanding episode filled with remarkable character moments, thematic depth, and impressive songs. ‘Gravity’ is compelling enough to be enjoyed outside of Hazbin Hotel, showcasing its rock and emo influences. With these two episodes, this season of Hazbin is proving to be unmissable. 

Rating: 9/10
