Some personal thoughts on Pentious and Cherri's future relationship - maybe not developing as many think?

Just want to say upfront: I also don't think the writing for Cherri and Pentious's dynamic is flawed; on the contrary, the main point of this post is to explain that the complexity of their relationship is actually underestimated.

Simply put: I believe Cherri and Pentious are unlikely to actually get together in the canon storyline.

Here's some of my reasoning and evidence: That official 'Sk8er Boi' post (See Pic 1): Remember during the season, the official account posted about Cherri and Pentious using "Sk8er Boi" lyrics? That song's about a girl missing out on a guy because of peer pressure. The lyrics fit their situation almost too well.(See Pic 2) It's a song about missing out and not being right for each other, not a happy ending. Makes you wonder if that was a hint.

The Valentine's keychain animation (See Pic 3): Yeah, they got a Valentine's keychain, looks like canon, right? But check the official promo video again – the animations are different for each couple. Chaggie separates a bit and snaps back. VoxVal splits far apart then rejoins. Only CherriSnake fully separates and stays separated. Could just be animation, could be a hint...

The actual plot and Vivzie's style:

Okay, about that kiss... : This feels important. Vivziepop has strong feminist themes in her work, she says so herself. And let's be real, a public confession + non-consensual kiss isn't exactly respectful. Even in the heat of the moment, I have a hard time seeing her writing that as the start of a healthy, endorsed relationship.

They fundamentally want different things:

Cherri: Loves being free, one-night stands, no strings attached. No sign she's just coping like Angel. And she was super against taking care of Niffty in S1E6 (while Angel stepped up, pic 4). Seems like a clear critique of the "all women want to be mothers" trope (kudos for that, like Millie's reaction in HB S2E12, pic 5). Cherri hates taking care of kids. It's core to her character.

Pentious: We spent basically a whole episode (S1E3) on how crucial the Eggs are to him (pic 6). He clearly wants a stable, long-term thing. His happy place seems to involve settling down with his "kids." Pentious needs his kids. (Whether he's a good dad is another messy topic).

So... what this likely means: For them to work in canon, Cherri would basically have to ditch her entire lifestyle (clubbing, flings) and probably become a stepmom to the Eggs. For a creator who constantly pushes back against the "women are naturally maternal" idea, that feels super unlikely as a plot point. It'd be like a hardcore "childfree cat lady" suddenly deciding her life's purpose is marrying some dude and having babies. It just doesn't fit Cherri.

Basically:

Putting it all together – the hints, their clashing personalities/needs, and the creator's known themes – I just don't see Cherri and Pentious becoming an official canon couple.

Again, zero shade on fanfic or shipping! Just talking about where the actual show seems to be pointing. Curious to hear what you all think!

terribly underrated post

ужасно недооценённый пост

Thank you for your recognition! I actually noticed these things a while ago, but since Season 2 is still far off, I didn’t want to start any ship wars. I know people just want to have fun shipping, and I don’t want anyone leaving negative comments under fan artists’ work.

Still, I think it’s important to bring this up — both as analysis and to show that the animation team clearly knows what they’re doing.

If you’re interested, I recommend The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy and Invincible. These feminist-influenced adult animations follow a similar pattern: female characters are never treated as passive prizes for male characters’ unrequited feelings.

Pentious is my favorite, and because of that, I’m well aware of his flaws. So when even Charlie’s VA, Erika Henningsen, praised him as amazing and said Cherri is lucky*, I found it oddly telling.

It reminded me how bold this creative team is — after all, this is an A24 production, and if you know A24, you’ll know they never play it safe — they’re capable of anything. Everyone praises Pentious, but few talk about Cherri’s strengths or how she and Pentious will overcome their clear differences. It almost feels like her perspective is being intentionally left out — which, coming from Vivziepop’s team, likely isn’t an oversight but part of the narrative itself. That absence might be the very thing we’re supposed to notice. *I’ve always wanted to find the original source of this video, but unfortunately, I only saw it quoted by another user. I don’t really want to bother them, but if you need it, I can send it to you privately.

Mae Catt’s Cyberverse Q&A

Here’s a neater version of some key Q&A responses from Mae Catt’s Cyberverse stream.

Please note: not everything is verbatim, and also note that Mae Catt said “Don’t take things I say as the end-all be-all.” She’s a big supporter of fanfic writers!

This Q&A session contains spoilers for Season 3 of Cyberverse. For a (somewhat) more comprehensive transcript, please refer to this post.

Since Vivienne Medrano’s season 2 of Hazbin Hotel has been leaked and is being sold by Russians hackers from within. Aren’t you worried that someone might hack, download, and publish all of TADC episodes, scripts, and Ref. Sheets?

If it happens, it happens. Still not changing anything about the story.

I have a feeling I’m going to get attached to this little fucker

He’s such an goofball I love him

I absolutely didn’t go back through and edit this at all and hardly any of this is verbatim but I tried to take notes on some of what Mae Catt said during her stream if anyone is interested!

EDIT: Here’s a cleaner post with most of the Q&A.

Came here to traumatize everyone who sees this,

So I've seen people say Baxter helped Sir Pentious make the egg bois so this is my own little theory on how Baxter helped Sir Pentious make the egg bois (this is a joke by the way😭)

So we all know male snakes can't lay eggs right and we know Sir Pentious is a male snake and he has eggs as his minions

So how does Sir Pentious have these minions well he use to be business partners with Baxter right? And most people headcannon Baxter as trans (ftm) because only female angler fish have the light

And well if Baxter was born female we all know female angler fish can lay lots of eggs

And we all know there used to be A LOT of egg bois until a lot of them died...

So what if-

SIR PENTIOUS HIT THAT AND BAXTER ACTUALLY HELPED SIR PENTIOUS MAKE THE EGG BOIS!?😨😨😨😨 (Baxter really lost custody to all the kids in the divorce 😭)

Thank you for your request!It is a coupling between Baxter and Pentious.The difference in physique is the best🫶 🐟🐍

Emily's VA leaked Hazbin season 2 script

Does someone want to explain to Vivzie why it's bad to do the things that land a person in jail or Hell? That the capacity for good doesn't mean shit if you're out there murdering hitchhikers, and that some people actually don't deserve a second chance -- that it isn't safe or fair to their victims for them to be given one?

Viv didn't encourage people ship the person who assisting Sir Pentious in making eggs and Pentious, and I'm curious why.

Hello everyone in the Hazbin Hotel fandom, I truly hope you're all doing well. There's something I've been really eager to understand.

During a livestream, Viv mentioned that another character assisted Sir Pentious in the technological "mass manufacturing" of the Egg Boiz. Some might perceive this as a kind of ship, but she quickly added that she wouldn't encourage that. I've been wondering WHY exactly?! I don't recall ever seeing her say she doesn't encourage any particular ship?😭This is driving me crazy. Could it be because the character assisting Pentious in making the eggs is related to him by blood or kinship? I can't think of any other reason for now.
