Hazbin Hotel FTL Addition

Okay let me repeat what I said here on St0l@s' feat:

The feat is interpreted in the blog like this: since we see Stolas in 2:18 on the Moon and then we see him back at his house near portal at 2:26, he flew from Moon to portal in 8 seconds. Except… he didn’t. His voice sounds the same throughout 2:18-2:26, but if he flew during that time, it would have been silent and becoming louder while he was flying. Secondly, we should have actually seen him flying or getting into the portal, since camera’s POV is a bit behind the portal. Yet he doesn’t come into his house, he is already there.
Thus the correct interpretation as it stands is that at 2:18 Stolas is at the Moon, then there was a timeskip in which Stolas flew back, then at 2:19 till 2:26 we are shown what happened after Stolas flew back. Otherwise the scene doesn’t make much sense physically.

That bird has no horse in FTL args.
This doesn't make sense. Stolas only took this trip to sing a lullaby to his daughter, and that's what's shown. There's no point in having a large time jump between scenes, and it contradicts the purpose of the scene; he can simply sing while flying.
 
My problem with this is that I don't see why we would assume this is MHS+ let alone actual Lighting. I don't see when or how the OP even proved that it was lol? From what I see their main form of proof is this scene where it looks like it comes from the clouds. But to me it is just an artistic choice and even then its hard to see if it comes from the clouds or from above it. Additionally this happens when Vox makes a deal, how do we know this applies to his teleportation? His teleportation clearly doesn't come from the clouds. AND from what Ik Lighting can be faster than MHS?
Oh, and just to clarify, when I say that Mhs+ is the minimum speed for Vox lightning, it's because lightnings with more energy can be faster, and that's accepted on the wiki. We have Zeus in GoW, for example, with a relativistic lightning. So, just like with weapons, it's only the minimum.
 
Logic?in the Hellaverse songs?
By same logic there is no logic in that scene at all so axe FTL either way.

Notice how none of this explains my direct argument about camera never showing us St*las flying and entering the portal despite being right behind it.

Yes, really. But flying is the most plausible and accepted assumption for years.

Teleportation doesn't make sense, as I said before. He had already opened the portal and returned through it, and a long time skip doesn't make sense given the context.

Think about it, Orange, in the end all paths are leading to Alastor's agenda becoming stronger, since Stolas is inferior to him.

People thought for centuries that Sun was revolving around the Earth. Appealing to popularity is not a great argument.

I agree with this.
and a long time skip doesn't make sense given the context.
Why exactly? Why would writers just show us a big long scene where all he does is just return to that portal when the song needs pacing?

No I don't mind FTL return actually, I just dislike this specific feat usage.
 
Stolas didn't use teleportation; the only time in the series he explicitly uses teleportation is when he expels Blitzø from his mansion, and it has both a distinctive effect and sound that aren't shown in that scene.

Yes, Stolas's solo feat could be considered spaceflight speed (even though we have no evidence that Stolas gets fast in space), but together with Emily's, it's consistent.

Emilly's feat is strange, but still, she reached Alastor by a good margin before the MoL beam, and apparently reacted to the beam sufficiently for Alastor to be far away from her after being hit, and only have one wing damaged. On the other hand, it's a rather confusing feat, and alone it wouldn't hold up on a scale, but together with Stolas's feat, it makes sense.

It's also worth mentioning that during the song in episode 2 of HB, Stolas sees planets and the Moon being slowly pulled and destroyed by the star before it explodes as a supernova. Even if, for these objects to reach the star before the lullaby ends, they have to be relativistic at the very least. Although there's no exact calculation for this since I didn't expect Shion to do a summary 1 day after the end of the Mega CRT.

Regarding the lightning feat, it would be at least Mach 30 and at most Mach 3000; it's a good supporting feat, but it would be good to decide on a value and explain why it's there, but again, surprise CRT.

Adam's light, while meeting the requirements to be SoL, has minimal concussive impact (or at least that's what CGMs say), so it cannot have that speed.
Stolas openes a portal to the space and he open it again when he returnes to the room
So its still feels like he use portals to traveling
 
Why exactly? Why would writers just show us a big long scene where all he does is just return to that portal when the song needs pacing?
Orange, Stolas is literally singing in the scene; when he appears in the room finishing the song, he was clearly already in the sequence. It doesn't make sense for Stolas to have stopped singing, flown to the portal, and then started singing again.

Even if there was a time skip of about 30 seconds or 1 minute, it would still be casually relativistic and a mere supporting element to Emily's achievement, and more than that, it doesn't make sense considering he made that trip just to quickly sing a lullaby to his daughter to help her fall asleep.
No I don't mind FTL return actually, I just dislike this specific feat usage.
I didn't want FTL to come back now either, but unfortunately it makes sense.

The portal through which he returns is the same one he opened at the beginning of the lullaby, and it is quite far from the star.

İm not saying he used portal to trwvel between moon and room im saying he probably activated another portal like he did before.
Sorry but this doesnt make sense for me

Okay... but that wasn't shown or indicated, there's only one portal in the entire sequence, and when he reappears it's precisely through this portal.
 
It's just a size inconsistency that appears in 2 sequences, why do you keep mentioning it? Unfortunately, this isn't uncommon in fiction.
Just one inconsistency of multiple in the scene. A star is going ******* Supernova nearby Stolas and both he and Octavia are fine. Unless you're buying Low 6-B durability Stolas and Goetia as a whole, there's other issues for using that scene for anything.

This is why timeskips exist, you know? Instead of showing us all of hours of flight on how Captain Marvel rescued Tony Stark, they just said it happened?
Even if there was a time skip of about 30 seconds or 1 minute

Emily's achievement, and more than that, it doesn't make sense considering he made that trip just to quickly sing a lullaby to his daughter to help her fall asleep.
Songs work like this all the time in Hazbin: it doesn't make sense for Alastor to have heard Vox's "I'm gonna make you wish that you stayed gone" to make a retort in the end, them physically "fighting" in Stayed Gone while being in two separate places, Lucifer and Alastor just fighting by playing violin and piano looks kind of off - we are in a MUSICAL, this happens ALL THE TIME.

So we are of two radically opposed opinions lol.

The Low 6-B calculation doesn't make sense because he wasn't even hit by the explosion, and Stolas was protecting Octavia, himself, and the rock they were sitting on with a purple barrier.

Time skips have to make sense within the context of the scene, and they're usually obvious. There's no indication of a time skip in the scene, and it wouldn't make sense to have one.

It's kind of like both have technological manipulation and are very fast, so the fight between Alastor and Vox in Stayed Gone makes sense. Not to mention that you're comparing two songs with reality manipulation to one without; Stolas is just singing while the end of a star system is happening, which makes sense in the scene and with his powers. They aren't the same songs, so this comparison is meaningless.

Edit: Actually, Stayed Gone makes sense with Alastor and Vox's powers. Lucifer frequently displays powers he used like hell's greatest dad and literally goes to the circus dimension with Charlie in the following song, and Alastor has matter manipulation and created forest in his room with a servant, so even those songs make sense.
 
The Low 6-B calculation doesn't make sense because he wasn't even hit by the explosion, and Stolas was protecting Octavia, himself, and the rock they were sitting on with a purple barrier.
This is basic telekinesis or levitation. This is a forcefield. We are not operating by Star Wars logic.
Gurren Lagann has Lordgenome be visible compared to Tengen Toppa Lagann....THE GALAXY SIZED MECHA
MF that Gurren Lagann, they throw galaxies and universes at eachother and shit.
 
Time skips have to make sense within the context of the scene, and they're usually obvious.
And it is obvious, we don't see Stolas enter through that portal despite camera being from its POV, so he logically is already in the house.

with his powers.
Uhhh, are we talking about these powers?
at least 8-C, possibly higher with Magic

They aren't the same songs, so this comparison is meaningless.
This all does not answer how Alastor got to know that Vox started his song with "I'm gonna make you wish that you stayed gone" to retort in the end, and just saying "different songs" doesn't help your case either, this is exact same verse by the same damn Vivziepop, her principles are the same.
 
This is basic telekinesis or levitation. This is a forcefield. We are not operating by Star Wars logic.
You're just assuming it's just levitation/telekinesis; you'd have to prove that the purple aura isn't protecting them. And just because Octavia created a giant shield against a dragon doesn't mean Stolas or even she can't create bodily barriers. Not to mention this is the second episode of Helluva Boss, so the barrier's appearance might be simplified.

ORRRRRRRR we go by what is shown, in that it keeps a rock and two people on said rock in place while everything falls apart around it, and call it Telekinesis.

Oh, and the lighting comes from the EXPLODING PURPLE STAR IN THE BACKGROUND.

I am evoking Occam's Razor: to assume it's telekinesis and lighting takes less assumptions than assuming it's a barrier as all other barriers from people using that power do not have a simple purple glow to them.
 
For another example in the same verse, This is Alastor trying to look cool, This is Alastor making a barrier.

Both glow, both have entirely different purposes and showings.
 
And it is obvious, we don't see Stolas enter through that portal despite camera being from its POV, so he logically is already in the house.
The camera doesn't show Stolas in the room, even though we see the scene from Stolas's point of view; the camera doesn't just follow him. During the song, there's literally a scene with the POV on the surface of the star watching the moon being destroyed.
Uhhh, are we talking about these powers?
Yes, with its ability to create a portal to mortal space and fly, and not tier.
This all does not answer how Alastor got to know that Vox started his song with "I'm gonna make you wish that you stayed gone" to retort in the end, and just saying "different songs" doesn't help your case either, this is exact same verse by the same damn Vivziepop, her principles are the same.
Because it's a duet, and it needs to be that way to match (and Alastor doesn't need to know that Vox started with Stayed Gone to say Stayed Gone), not to mention that this has nothing to do with a time skip in Stolas' lullaby, just because both are vivziepop songs doesn't mean they have to follow the same pattern, that's a false equivalence.
 
This is Alastor trying to look cool
Huh what are you talking about? This looks more like..

Yes, that's fair, and telekinesis can be used to protect the body like a barrier, as Mob or Tatsumaki do, what's the problem here?

Oh, and the lighting comes from the EXPLODING PURPLE STAR IN THE BACKGROUND.
No, why isn't the star's glow on Stolas represented that way in the other scenes, and did you forget that you agreed with a CRT that says Stolas is on the other side of the moon even though that doesn't make sense?
For another example in the same verse, This is Alastor trying to look cool, This is Alastor making a barrier.

Okay, but that's not Alastor, right?
 
The camera doesn't show Stolas in the room
Because it is initially straight in the portal, then it zooms out into the house.
even though we see the scene from St*las's point of view
We don't, actually, the point of view is from portal. There's a reason St*las appears from third POV, not first in the scene.
During the song, there's literally a scene with the POV on the surface of the star watching the moon being destroyed.

Yes, with its ability to create a portal to mortal space and fly, and not tier.
Just because he can teleport to space and fly doesn't mean that he has to be at FTL lol.
Because it's a duet, and it needs to be that way to match
So you DO concede that musical shenanigans that contradict logic exist.
(and Alastor doesn't need to know that Vox started with Stayed Gone to say Stayed Gone)
He deliberately repeats same line and mentions status quo. You are not convincing me this is just a convenient coincidence, no.
not to mention that this has nothing to do with a time skip in Stolas' lullaby, just because both are vivziepop songs doesn't mean they have to follow the same pattern, that's a false equivalence.
It does, it shows how Vivz is willing to throw away logic just for a song to work. This combined with physical evidence of Stolas not flying to the portal just sets the timeskip in stone.
 
Yes, that's fair, and telekinesis can be used to protect the body like a barrier, as Mob or Tatsumaki do, what's the problem here?
Now prove it works that way for Stolas.
No, why isn't the star's glow on Stolas represented that way in the other scenes, and did you forget that you agreed with a CRT that says Stolas is on the other side of the moon even though that doesn't make sense?
You realize how luminous a star is when you're that close to it, right?(Ignoring that the entire scene is bathed in purple, of course) Also, I do agree he was on the other side of the moon.

Look where the solar flares and shit are coming from. Plus more proof the star is what's making the light.
Okay, but that's not Alastor, right?
Whenever a barrier is being made in this verse, it is explicit. Need proof? Any time a force field is created across the entire series. Octavia's barriers are explicit, Heaven's barrier is explicit, Emily's barrier is explicit, Alastor's barriers are explicit.

Stolas ain't using a barrier. End of story.
 
Because it is initially straight in the portal, then it zooms out into the house.
I just rewatched the scene; the POV is completely still while the star explodes and Stolas appears.
We don't, actually, the point of view is from portal. There's a reason St*las appears from third POV, not first in the scene.
So there is nothing to indicate that Stolas is in the room before appearing on screen.
Just because he can teleport to space and fly doesn't mean that he has to be at FTL lol.
The point is that Stolas singing a lullaby to Octavia during a supernova and flying towards the portal makes sense given his powers and the context.
So you DO concede that musical shenanigans that contradict logic exist.
Yes, when necessary, and it wasn't in Stolas' music, so it doesn't matter.
He deliberately repeats same line and mentions status quo. You are not convincing me this is just a convenient coincidence, no.
I don't need to convince you of that; from the moment it's a possibility, your argument loses strength.
It does, it shows how Vivz is willing to throw away logic just for a song to work. This combined with physical evidence of Stolas not flying to the portal just sets the timeskip in stone.
It's basically a matter of which assumption makes the most sense given the scene: another portal in the room or teleportation would be visible or indicated by the sounds; flying wouldn't be necessary.

And you still haven't explained how this time skip fits with Stolas singing a lullaby to her daughter to get her to sleep quickly; it doesn't make sense for Stolas to spend several minutes or hours just doing that.
 
I don't need to convince you of that; from the moment it's a possibility, your argument loses strength.
"Could, possibly, but never is"

Yeah you ain't convincing me of much and I just realized why. And I am neutral to the thread, I just vehemently disagree with the bum bird song being used for anything.
 
Now prove it works that way for Stolas.
Prove why it wouldn't work; he's already levitating himself, Octavia, and the rock without them being affected by their surroundings, so there's no reason why it wouldn't work. Therefore, it's a plausible assumption.
You realize how luminous a star is when you're that close to it, right?(Ignoring that the entire scene is bathed in purple, of course) Also, I do agree he was on the other side of the moon.

Look where the solar flares and shit are coming from. Plus more proof the star is what's making the light.

Yes, Stolas was hit by more light, and the light magically became darker and purple...it all makes sense (I'm being sarcastic).
Whenever a barrier is being made in this verse, it is explicit. Need proof? Any time a force field is created across the entire series. Octavia's barriers are explicit, Heaven's barrier is explicit, Emily's barrier is explicit, Alastor's barriers are explicit.

Stolas ain't using a barrier. End of story.
Yes, all those barriers were created with different visuals from each other, and later in the series. And none of them showed telekinesis (maybe Octavia, but I don't remember).
 
"Could, possibly, but never is"

Yeah you ain't convincing me of much and I just realized why. And I am neutral to the thread, I just vehemently disagree with the bum bird song being used for anything.
Ok 👍

But what exactly does that change? We disagree on this point anyway, and this CRT is kind of dependent on that lullaby to function.

Because that requires MORE assumptions than just saying "It's basic telekinesis". Occam's Razor does the goddamn griddy on this shit. You are ADDING assumptions, so my point, that it's telekinesis, is more correct.
Yes, all those barriers were created with different visuals from each other, and later in the series. And none of them showed telekinesis (maybe Octavia, but I don't remember).
They're all different colors. That's about the main difference between them beyond who's doing it.
Ok 👍

Remind me, dear blue name, whose CRT made the verse FTL in general in the first place? Because I'm pretty sure it was mine.

Yes, but your argument that it's telekinesis doesn't prove that it can't be a barrier, and that it doesn't make sense in the context of the scene.

And why are we discussing this? It was decided in the CRT that you voted in favor of Stolas not being affected by anything from the star; it simply doesn't matter.
They're all different colors. That's about the main difference between them beyond who's doing it.
It also has texture and integration with other powers, such as Alastor being able to manifest shadow tentacles through his barrier, while Octavia's can expand to push and destroy the Dragon, being modifiable (curiously similar to telekinesis), but anyway, that doesn't matter.
Remind me, dear blue name, whose CRT made the verse FTL in general in the first place? Because I'm pretty sure it was mine.
Great, but this is the same CRT that was debunked, and that's why we're here talking about a bird singing a lullaby in space during a star system collapse.
