Yeah, got too much to catch up on from all the LVLUP news this weekend, so I'll start w/something in reaction to it. If you're a Morgan follower on YT, here's her reaction to the S3 trailer.

Alastor looks better with women than men. Just saying.
What is Charlie's role?
In the immediate aftermath of season 2, I remember there being a lot of discourse about Charlie not getting a big moment in the finale, of not being able to have the chance to step up and take command, instead having other people come in to fix her problems.
I would like to argue that this is a reflection of Charlie's role in the Hazbin Hotel. Charlie is not the person who is directly causes people to improve, Charlie is the person who will make the space that allows for the facilitation of people to improve.
Charlie tries to directly intervene and help Angel Dust and it goes extremely poorly. Even before that, her redemption exercises that we see in season 1 do not help Angel Dust in any way. Her efforts go even worse in season 2 when Charlie tries to speedrun Angel Dust's redemption--directly meddling and pushing against Angel's boundaries. She is not good at reaching sinners, especially Angel Dust.
But when Husk speaks to Angel Dust, he is able to empathise with Angel and give him the words that Angel Dust needed in that moment. Husk was the person who was uniquely situated to help Angel Dust. We see him continue to do so throughout season one. In s1e6, Husk is constantly reminding Angel Dust of his attempts to grow and keeping him invested in that growth. In season 2, we see Angel Dust return the favour, openly empathising with Husk when Husk is regressing and inspiring Husk to give improvement another go.
We see this again with Baxter. Charlie's interactions with Baxter are quite negative initially, she's pushy and projects Pentious onto him which would be uncomfortable even if Sir Pentiuos wasn't someone Baxter had a complicated history with. But Baxter still improves. Why?
Because Nifty takes the time to give him care that deeply touches him. Sure, it's played for a joke--that he's willing to turn on his employers over something that we haven't seen on screen--but we see him in just enjoying Nifty and other residents' company.
We even see this with Vaggi who grows and matures from someone with a hair trigger temper and a standoffish approach to sinners to someone who is able to call Charlie out when she's hurting the Hotel's residents. She grows from her bonds with the residents of the hotel, it helps her grow out of her military shell. This is what the third episode is all about.
So. Charlie.
Charlie's strength is the space she created. The Hotel is an environment where people can receive support and help. Genuinely, having a physical space to be in where you are away from the negative forces in your life cannot be understated and within that space she has developed a community of people who help each other. Charlie's creation of the Hotel is how Angel Dust and Husk were able to meet each other and the proximity to check each other. It's the same with Baxter, Vaggi, and Sir Pentious (although Charlie had a more direct hand with Sir Pentious). It's not the specific programmes that Charlie runs that people are improving but through the Hotel itself and how the different residents catch and inspire each other.
Charlie's power is community building. Which is why season 2 ends with an angel that Charlie bonded with and worked with, reaching out to stop the Might of Lilith and then being joined by Charlie and the rest of her community. Emily makes that first step because her great virtue is kindness but Emily wouldn't have been there at all were it not for Charlie's gift for reaching out a hand.
It's not an accident that Vox is the villain of the season and his greatest vice is his inability to allow others to take the spotlight and his weapon is defeated by a collective action, one that was not led by Charlie but facilitated by her.
And that is why Charlie didn't get a badass fight scene or something.
Very much agree with this assessment!

Something I really love about Nifftyβs song Clean it Up in S2 is how she does actually give a much more honest view of what the hotel is than Charlie, who while in the midst of her spiral becomes obsessed with the image of herself and the hotel. Charlie wants to present the image of herself and the the hotel (and the process of redemption) as something that is squeaky clean, but the reality is that the hotel is a messy place filled with messy people, Charlie herself included, and it will take a lot to βclean it upβ
"There's an endless stream of trash and filth and hundreds of bugs
If you love the stench of jizz, wait 'til you smell our rugs
'Cause people barf and piss and cum on them a ton
And when they do, I get to go and clean it up (what?)
Hypodermic needles left all over the place
And our rats have grown immune to being sprayed by mace
So I gotta take my knife and stab 'em all in the face
And now they treat me like their queen because I'm covered in rat blood (Niffty, no!)
Magical land, hotel of my dreams
Disgustingest, ugliest building that I've ever seen
And I get to clean it up!"
...which is something Charlie struggles to fully realise in the need to embrace and understand the complicated messiness of sinners, herself, and the process of redemption. It's not clean or neat or tidy. If it was, you wouldn't need to "clean it up"! and despite how much Niffty puts into cleaning the hotel, the dirt and grunge still comes up again and again, it's just part of life, part of people, having to deal with and work on those flaws and less desirable parts of yourself you want to look away from. They'll never go away anymore than the barf and piss that Niffty has to continuously clean off of the rugs. Just like how working on yourself is a constant process, it's not linear or a simple checklist, it's something you have to commit to everyday, the same way you do with, say, cleaning your house. Or in this case, a hotel.
Niffty in the Japanese section also sings about the heart of the Hazbin Hotel and Charlie both, and how the dreams they represent are worth fighting for and will come true one day:
βThe hotel is really nice
Charlie is a very kind boss
I believe she will succeed
βI love it so much!β
And it being sung in Japanese with Charlie saying βcan anyone understand this?!β is so funny and fitting to me. Because yeah, at this point in her character arc the true meaning of the song Niffty is singing about the hotel and what itβs really about would be something Charlie canβt hear or understand, since sheβs temporarily lost sight of herself and her dream in becoming so consumed by her own pride and proving others wrong. So much so that anyone conveying it would seem to sound like they were speaking another language! (there's almost a point I feel could be made about Charlie's foiling with Vox and his ties to the Tower of Babel here)
also sidebar that's kind of unrelated to this mini analysis, but I love that out of all the chibi cast watching and cheering for Niffty, Husk is the most starry eyed and in awe of her. It's so cute. That's his friend! (I also think the sentiment expressed by Niffty in her song is similar/comparable to his song Loser Baby about embracing your flaws/acknowledging your "mess". Niffty just has the addition of actually dealing with/cleaning it up day in and day out, and still holding onto one's hopes and dreams.)
You know, I never thought about Niffty's song that way before. This is a very good analysis for something people are typically too busy laughing at to understand a deeper meaning of. Good job!
I drew Charlie as a pony!!! β¨β¨
