Intro Helluva Boss Season 1 Episode 5: “The Harvest Moon Festival” The episode opens with Stolas inviting Blitzo to the Harvest Moon Festival in the Wrath Ring. Stolas, as always, flirts heavily with Blitzo, who reluctantly agrees to go, dragging the rest of the I.M.P team along. Upon arriving at Millie’s family farm, we’re introduced to Millie’s parents and siblings, a rugged and traditional family deeply rooted in Wrath Ring culture. Millie’s parents warmly welcome everyone except Moxxie, who they deem weak and unworthy of their daughter. Their disdain for him is clear, especially when they compare him to the other men present, including a newly introduced character, Striker, a charismatic and highly skilled farmhand. Striker quickly makes a strong impression, participating in festival games and easily outshining everyone with his combat skills, strength, and charm. Moxxie, feeling insecure and humiliated, struggles to keep up in the competitions. Blitzo, however, is impressed by Striker and bonds with him, further alienating Moxxie. As the festivities continue, Striker reveals himself as more than just a skilled farmhand. Moxxie, investigating Striker’s room, discovers a powerful angelic rifle—an extremely rare weapon capable of killing high-ranking demons like Stolas. Realizing Striker’s intentions to assassinate Stolas, Moxxie attempts to warn the group, but Blitzo dismisses his concerns, believing he’s just jealous. Striker eventually captures Moxxie and tries to convince him to join his cause, claiming that demons like Stolas oppress others for their own gain. Moxxie refuses, and Striker prepares to kill him. Before Striker can finish the job, Millie arrives and fights fiercely to save her husband. The confrontation escalates into a chaotic battle, with Striker’s true intentions revealed to everyone.
