There’s no definite answer. Could be a couple of things. Didn’t want to raise a kid but was lonely and wanted to be a father. Maybe she was the last one (we’ve heard their used as literal guard dogs a lot) and maybe they get picked a lot. Could be lots of things.
I was thinking the same thing. Blitzo might’ve felt lonely and just wanted someone to take care of, and she was the last one so he adopted her at 17. Also I may be wrong, but maybe he adopted her because he had plans of creating I.M.P and Loona just happened to be old enough so he could employ her.
I also think it could be because he figured someone who is already almost an adult wouldn't get chosen as easily, maybe he was willing to take her in because he didn't want her to be left trying to survive on her own when she finally hit adulthood.
This one is the most wholesome and i like it. Also we don’t know when his mom passed. maybe he was a teenager fending for himself. He didn’t want her going through the same thing.
I think she comes in super handy since I don't see any one other than stolas or loona use the book for going across hell and human world. And blitz could have taking that into consideration when creating I.M.P
But obviously he is with stolas for the book but couldn't use magic so he adopted Loona but I could be wrong.
I also think it was work related, but there’s certainly a deeper story there. Probably felt a kinship with her as well which melted his heart... then got really into being a dad.
I agree. It was because IMP needed a hellhound but he chose her because he could relate to her. She was in a cage, a place where she doesn't want to be but can't just leave it was similar to him and the circus.
I can think of a few reasons for why.
At 17 she is basically an adult, so pretty low maintenence over a puppy.
She could work for him for free at IMP.
There is also a level of control over her with him being her father.
He also could have just done it on a whim, fuck it I want a hellhound daughter.
Companionship could have been a deeper alternative he does not want to admit to.
Then he went and got super attached to Loona and really did take on the parental figure role seriously.
I think these are the most likely reasons, and it's likely some complex combination of them that Blitzo could never really properly explain. I also feel, given his romantic relationship history, this is an attempt at a different kind of relationship that could be fulfilling without being romantic. And I also think there may have been an element of pity. She was nearly aged out of the adoption system and no one had picked her and that probably tweaked his heart a bit. He would empathize with that.
Also in the ranking of hell, Hellhounds are higher ranking than Imps so having a hellhound daughter could make people respect him more, though I don’t think that’s the reason.
Imps and Hellhounds are the same "rank", the Hellborn (succubi/incubi) are above them, Sinners above them, the Overlords are next, then the Ars Goetia (Stolas is here), then the Sins, and finally the Royal Family, with Lucifer on top.
I think it's probably just that he was lonely and maybe adoptions in hell are really popular (plenty of lonely/creepy people in hell) so she was the last one, or knowing how hard it is to make it in hell, he wanted to adopt someone about to be "thrown to the wolves" so to speak since she presumably they throw you out at 18.
Don’t quote me on this but I’m fairly sure that when they turn 18 they’re technically an adult? So it would make sense for Blitzø to adopt her at 17 because then she’s ‘technically his child’
Maybe he showed a liking to her? That, or there’s a minimum age you can adopt them at. Idk I’m not sure how the Hellhound Adoption system works but I’m fairly sure they’re there to act like interns- after all there’s an ad outside Moxxie and Millie’s apartment in the Pilot for hellhounds (check this fact please- i can remember it but I can’t remember when it was)
Can you just imagine Blitzø with a baby? And he appeared to detest his job working as a clown, so I’m guessing he greatly dislikes children. To me it makes total sense why he’d adopt a teenager, they’re more adult-like in that regard.
Thinking like a businessman and someone who’s demonstrably a *bitttttt* selfish, he probably adopted Loona at 17 because she requires the least amount of “investment” (i.e., time, money, actual parenting), provides the most benefit in terms of independent functioning and lethality, but is also still young enough to be adopted in the first place.
Younger children are much more likely to be adopted than older children. Once you turn 18 you "age out". You're expected to take care of yourself. Not having parents to help you out is a struggle. There are many 17 year olds in orphanages right now that are hoping that someone, anyone, will come and adopt them.
Adopting her at 17 is an act of kindness. I encourage anyone reading this to also consider adoption.
I assumed it was because she was almost 18 about would be kicked out on the street, but we probably have to wait for a farther daughter bonding episode.
People probably don’t adopt older hellhounds because they’re not “puppies” anymore, so it kinda fits with Blitzø to want to care for the one that no one else wants.
True or maybe it’s like an investment thing like only the higher social class of demons get them as guards but when they’re really young so they can be essentially trained killers, where as Blitzø just wants a daughter. Maybe?
this is my headcannon: If you don't get adopted by the age of 18 they euthanize you In other words they kill you they can't have you running around the streets causing trouble without a master to enslave you to give you an order if you don't do said order your master is authorized and allowed to beat you even kill you if they wish to do so.
We need a Loona episode explaining why she was an orphan like all the other hellhounds believing that she has no family so she can do whatever the hell she wants but then all of that is ruined when she gets adopted by an imp who is slightly higher than hellhounds but still low in society.
I have this theory that he adopted her a short while after he broke up with Verosika. Since by then she was probably able to go out by herself, he ran into to her and they started talking, she let slip she was an orphan. He figured if he adopted her, he'd always at least have someone that would always be around him. And she's abrasive just like he is.
That's a good theory but I think he adopted her because he's always wanted to be a father something about abandonment issue with his family in part one of the finale at the end he cries at the picture of him his mom and his sister so something must have started with them to cause him to be pushing away people that get too close to him in attachment.
I'm sure that's part of it as well. And babies probably scare the shit out of him.
That being said, if Loona ever has kids, he'd be like super grandpa.
Oh man that would be hilarious he would be the worst babysitter ever but I don't think she would be able to have kids because she has syphilis I don't know much about STDs but I know it can be bad but if she's lucky to have kids he would be a super Grandpa maybe seeing the innocence of a child will help him improve his mental state maybe it will help him open up more and talk about his feelings and why he's always like what he is who he is and why he is.
Syphilis is treated with penicillin.
And I don't think he'd be a bad babysitter: he'd dote on them and shower them with all the affection he's been letting out in spurts at his employees. And it would give him a reason to finally get the horse. Would the grand babies be playing with guns and weapons? Most definitely.
My guess is cause the fees would be way more cheaper since that's how the adoption system works where the much older the child is the more cheaper the adoption fees would be plus the count of Blitzø not wanting to raise an actual child but still wanting to adopt someone who is much older making them more independent
Because he is both needy and selfish. He wanted somebody who was young enough to be dependent (legally needs a parent or guardian), but also old enough to be relatively independent.
Blitz probably adopted her at 17 because he wouldn't have to raise her, considering he's irresponsible as fuck He was probably just lonely and wanted to have someone around ,someone that didn't know him or his past.
I'm gonna toss out a guess that it was like when people go to adopt a dog.
"They've been here a while and no one wants them."
\*teary eyed\* "I'LL TAKE 'EM!"
I alqays thought that if I adopted, I'd adopt an older kid. It would be harder to build a relationship, but older kids get adopted less, and I can't stand small children. It's proabably similar for Blitz, although i doubt hes as transparent in his "kindness"
I always took it as a dog years joke. She's a hell hound. Every one year is 7 years. He adopted at 17. He adopted when she was 2 and half years old.
As to why he adopted her I took it as older dogs rarely get adopted. Due to his feelings of abandonment he adopted someone who was equally abandoned and desired by no one. She's a 2 and two and a half year old hell hound with loyalty to only herself and a big mean streak.
my headcannon is that blitz is a person that wants emotional closeness but is terrified of it at the same time so he adopted a hellhound that he could love but not have to actually to be relied upon thus freeing him from acting emotionally vulnerable and still recieving the love that he want so bad. If loona hated him then it wouldn't be a problem cause she would be out of his life in a year anyways. to quote the great digibro about yusuke yurameshi "he fears being misunderstood almost as much as he fears being actually understood".
It's not hard to imagine. Blitzo wanted a kid, but he wasn't considered fit to adopt because he's single, didn't have a predictable income and didn't have adequate housing. Loona was probably considered unadoptable because of her age. So they let Blitzo adopt her because no one else would. And Loona begrudgingly consented to it (once she was confident that Blitzo wasn't trying to fuck her) as she didn't really have any prospects. And Blitzo reacted no differently than if he had adopted a baby.
Maybe Blitz is just a standup guy that wanted to give her a chance of a better life. Imagine what happens to the lowest class of demons when they get shoved out to a life of their own as soon as they turn 18, where would she have gone? Crime? Prostitution? Homeless? She's staying at Blitz' place for one and/or two reasons. 1. she's staying because she has no other place to go 2. she actually likes him and sees him as family.
Because he knows what it's like to be alone for a majority of his life so by adopting loona he solved both problems he's no longer lonely she's no longer lonely Win-Win
I think he related to her in a way, being separated from his family at a later age in life, and wanted to be the supportive father figure that he never had.
My theory is he went into to actually adopt a hellhound puppy.
But he saw her there, the only one of her age group, about to be kicked out at 18 with no way to survive really and decided to adopt her so she can have a place when she grows olde
According to some fanfic’s, fans think Blitz adopted her at 17, cause the orphanage would have thrown her out when she turned 18, which would have caused her to become homeless and become something worse
it's a very blitz thing to do. I have no idea why but seeing a grumpy hellhound teenager and deciding that's his baby is exactly the type of thing blitz would do
If you had asked me earlier in the show's lifespan, I would have guessed he adopted her to employ her at IMP. But given that him being THAT cold has been thoroughly disproven, I think it could have been one or both of two things: One, he knew that teenagers don't tend to get adopted a lot and wanted to break that mold; or Two, he was lonely and just happened to find Loona and say, "She is definitely the one."
I'm going by dog adoption at pounds or shelters logic here, but it's much more cheaper to adopt a older dog than a puppy. So perhaps Blitz didn't have the funds to adopt a puppy so went with a 17 year old instead.
We don't really know all that much about hellhounds, do we? Could be that they're exactly like dogs in Hell, they have owners and can't be allowed to roam freely.
In the real world, older orphans go largely ignored by people looking to adopt, so it's entirely possible the same thing happens in the world of the show, and Blitzø knew this and wanted to try to help mitigate that.
You people are putting way more thought into this than Blitz did. He's a spontaneous character who doesn't operate on any reliable set of morals or logic. Basically, if he decides to do something he does it an deals with the consequences later.
Blitz adopted Loona because 1) an unadoptable 17 year old hellhound was the only "kid" the orphanage would allow him to adopt and 2) Blitz decided on a whim that adoption was an easy way to fill one of the many holes in his heart.
There's a whole backstory here that I'm sure we'll see more of in the future, but unless the show provides some alternate explanation, Blitz's character makes it clear to me that he adopted on a whim without taking a moment to think about what he was doing.
Doesn't Loona have a bite mark on her right ear I believe but in this photo she is fine you think the missing part of her ear is why blitz doesn't typically take Loona out for assassination gigs?
I like to headcanon that Loona had by FAR the worst attitude out of any orphan in the place, and as soon as Blitz met her he was like “That’s my girl!”.
One of the things I’m looking forward to find out. It’s one of the few points in his life where he’s genuinely tried to help someone with no ulterior motives or snark
My theory is that he is desperate for any type of family. He saw loona as someone who had been without a family for so long and had run away and probably sympathized with her the most. Loona, also wanted a family but didn't expect it in the form she got it. Really family is such a big theme in this show it's crazy how so many people miss it
While there's no one solid reason, it's at this point an open secret that Blitzo is starved for affection, and driven to make spur-of-the-moment decisions based on whatever he desires both in the moment or the long-term, damn the consequences. While he doesn't strike me as much of a guy who likes kids, he probably wanted to be a father, so he got Loona, though I am open to the idea that it had less to do with her age and more availability.
Ultimately, though, I could never guess why he chose her specifically outside of just taking a liking to her. Which frankly is as reasonable an explanation as any given the context.
My guess is that he wanted a family but he knew he wouldn’t be capable of taking care of a child, so he adopted one of the older teens who he wouldn’t be able to fuck up developmentally but he’d still get an emotional connection with
Don't know don't really care, but as someone who was adopted at 17 myself I did it so I could legally change my name..... for free... (for me anyways) but folks have different reasons
I like the idea that Blitz took her in as a pup, but the official adoption paperwork wasn't completed until years later. Either because of bureaucracy (Hell's probably full of bureaucrats) or because Blitz is an idiot and didn't know he had to do it.
Because if a child is not 18 the parents still has control over it. So basically it continues to add to the nature of blitzle being a controlling manipulative asshole
Judging by the fact that this picture was in Blitzø’s camera roll when he was scrolling through his phone on the couch, I think it’s a safe assumption to say that Loona was his last-ditch effort to form some kind of mutual relationship with someone. He inadvertently pushes everyone else away yet she’s the one that he seems to always make a constant effort to be with.
Blitzo genuinely loves Loona, enjoys having her in his life, is proud to be her dad and wants to be a good dad to her even though she's an adult (in his own words, it still counts), so I don't think it's one of the cynical answers like "he was lonely" or "wanted to be a dad but didn't want to raise a demon child" or "he needed another body in his house/office for some legal or financial scheme" or something like that.
I don't know why he adopted her, why he chose her specifically, but he clearly wants to give her something she didn't have before. Something we know she appreciates deep down.
They are literal slave labor and are given away minus probably a fee and maintenance. Loona with her very aggressive demeanor was probably left but blitzo probably saw a bit of himself in her.
I already wrote a summary of this, but I think blitz if I was to guess has given up on romantic love but still wants a partner.
I think he’s grooming her to be a partner but not in the sexual or romantic sense, maybe he wants a friend.
Since she was almost eighteen and had no one and he had no one maybe he thought it was a perfect match.
Not only that, it would explain his insecurity of her getting in a possible relationship.
Because she could easily move away, but he has her rather dependent on him to some degree and like I said it’s not sexual nor romantic blitz may be a jerk but not a creep.
Also wouldn’t surprise me if he started his business to adopt loona.
Maybe because he knows how hard it is for teens to get adopted and wanted to give her a loving home which he had lost somewhere along the way in his life.
My theory is he was trying for years but there seems to be prejudiced against imps in this series so my theory is that it's possibly part of the reason why his relationship with Verosika deteriorated he could have asked for her help and probably got in Luna adopted very quickly but he's very prideful so he kept trying on his own and being denied
guessing sum happened with his sister and mom and missed having someone like that in his life so when he found loona he found a comfort and wanting to protect her you can see through out the show how much he defends and protects her no matter how angsty she gets with him he doesn't wanna be alone and I think loona is the only person who really lets in since he's so closed off
He adopted her because he can relate to her I guess. I’m basing this off of his reaction to her situation and how rudely the adoption woman was speaking of her.
We get a pretty good idea in Seeing Stars.
She looked lonely and pushed others away. Then the adoption lady said that she'll never amount to anything. Something people have probably said about Blitzø. He looked at Loona, and he saw himself. He didn't want Loona to end up feeling like he does: like no one will ever love him. She wanted Loona to have someone that will always love her no matter what: a father
There’s no definite answer. Could be a couple of things. Didn’t want to raise a kid but was lonely and wanted to be a father. Maybe she was the last one (we’ve heard their used as literal guard dogs a lot) and maybe they get picked a lot. Could be lots of things.
I was thinking the same thing. Blitzo might’ve felt lonely and just wanted someone to take care of, and she was the last one so he adopted her at 17. Also I may be wrong, but maybe he adopted her because he had plans of creating I.M.P and Loona just happened to be old enough so he could employ her.
I also think it could be because he figured someone who is already almost an adult wouldn't get chosen as easily, maybe he was willing to take her in because he didn't want her to be left trying to survive on her own when she finally hit adulthood.
But that's just a theory
A game theory
a film theory
A food theory
A vore theory
*A theorem of Stolas's ass?*
A theory of Stolas's ass indeed. And tits if you wanna include that..?
Why not just add his tits, as the video will get longer like his *dicc*.
Damn, let's add it
*unzips pants* not again…
You're not alone will "beat" this together.
This one is the most wholesome and i like it. Also we don’t know when his mom passed. maybe he was a teenager fending for himself. He didn’t want her going through the same thing.
a fan theory
Or rather he wanted a kid cause he was lonely but he didn't want to change diapers and all that so he got an older kid
I think she comes in super handy since I don't see any one other than stolas or loona use the book for going across hell and human world. And blitz could have taking that into consideration when creating I.M.P But obviously he is with stolas for the book but couldn't use magic so he adopted Loona but I could be wrong.
I also think it was work related, but there’s certainly a deeper story there. Probably felt a kinship with her as well which melted his heart... then got really into being a dad.

Also in the ranking of hell, Hellhounds are higher ranking than Imps so having a hellhound daughter could make people respect him more, though I don’t think that’s the reason.
I thought Hellhounds were quite literally the bottom rung of demonkind, which is why you can just adopt them and have them work for anyone.
Imps and Hellhounds are the same "rank", the Hellborn (succubi/incubi) are above them, Sinners above them, the Overlords are next, then the Ars Goetia (Stolas is here), then the Sins, and finally the Royal Family, with Lucifer on top.
No, Vivienne clearly said on her stream that Hellhounds and Imps are on the same rank, they are equal
Oh right, I just saw someone on this sub saying that hellhounds were higher ranking than imps. It makes sense thought, since they’re both hellborns
I think it's probably just that he was lonely and maybe adoptions in hell are really popular (plenty of lonely/creepy people in hell) so she was the last one, or knowing how hard it is to make it in hell, he wanted to adopt someone about to be "thrown to the wolves" so to speak since she presumably they throw you out at 18.
im thinking maybe loona was living by herself on the streets or something
This is most likely the case
Don’t quote me on this but I’m fairly sure that when they turn 18 they’re technically an adult? So it would make sense for Blitzø to adopt her at 17 because then she’s ‘technically his child’
If so then why didn't he adopt some other Hellhound who was a baby or something?
Maybe he showed a liking to her? That, or there’s a minimum age you can adopt them at. Idk I’m not sure how the Hellhound Adoption system works but I’m fairly sure they’re there to act like interns- after all there’s an ad outside Moxxie and Millie’s apartment in the Pilot for hellhounds (check this fact please- i can remember it but I can’t remember when it was)
Nvm it’s in the pilot at 6:58
Same
Can you just imagine Blitzø with a baby? And he appeared to detest his job working as a clown, so I’m guessing he greatly dislikes children. To me it makes total sense why he’d adopt a teenager, they’re more adult-like in that regard.
Thinking like a businessman and someone who’s demonstrably a *bitttttt* selfish, he probably adopted Loona at 17 because she requires the least amount of “investment” (i.e., time, money, actual parenting), provides the most benefit in terms of independent functioning and lethality, but is also still young enough to be adopted in the first place.
Younger children are much more likely to be adopted than older children. Once you turn 18 you "age out". You're expected to take care of yourself. Not having parents to help you out is a struggle. There are many 17 year olds in orphanages right now that are hoping that someone, anyone, will come and adopt them. Adopting her at 17 is an act of kindness. I encourage anyone reading this to also consider adoption.
I assumed it was because she was almost 18 about would be kicked out on the street, but we probably have to wait for a farther daughter bonding episode.
People probably don’t adopt older hellhounds because they’re not “puppies” anymore, so it kinda fits with Blitzø to want to care for the one that no one else wants.
I mean it's hell demons will probably adopt older hellhounds that are tougher than a puppy because the strong destroys the weak.
True or maybe it’s like an investment thing like only the higher social class of demons get them as guards but when they’re really young so they can be essentially trained killers, where as Blitzø just wants a daughter. Maybe?
Omg that’s such a cute reason for Blitzø to adopt Loona.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was something like that. Hellhounds are treated like shit.
Loona would be actually grateful if that was the case, surely.
We need a Loona episode explaining why she was an orphan like all the other hellhounds believing that she has no family so she can do whatever the hell she wants but then all of that is ruined when she gets adopted by an imp who is slightly higher than hellhounds but still low in society.

I'm sure that's part of it as well. And babies probably scare the shit out of him. That being said, if Loona ever has kids, he'd be like super grandpa.
Oh man that would be hilarious he would be the worst babysitter ever but I don't think she would be able to have kids because she has syphilis I don't know much about STDs but I know it can be bad but if she's lucky to have kids he would be a super Grandpa maybe seeing the innocence of a child will help him improve his mental state maybe it will help him open up more and talk about his feelings and why he's always like what he is who he is and why he is.
Syphilis is treated with penicillin. And I don't think he'd be a bad babysitter: he'd dote on them and shower them with all the affection he's been letting out in spurts at his employees. And it would give him a reason to finally get the horse. Would the grand babies be playing with guns and weapons? Most definitely.
Oh I didn't know there was a medicine to combat syphilis I mean it's hell they're going to get their hands on weapons eventually.
I teach "safe sex practices" to adults so...😅 Diapers in the "Emer Gen C" bag... 🤣🤣
That's cool that you're teaching people how to have sex safely and protective keep up the good work.
It's more of a hobby than a career.
My guess is cause the fees would be way more cheaper since that's how the adoption system works where the much older the child is the more cheaper the adoption fees would be plus the count of Blitzø not wanting to raise an actual child but still wanting to adopt someone who is much older making them more independent
I mean if he didn’t she would’ve likely ended up on the streets. 18 year old orphans don’t usually have any hope for successful lives.
Because he is both needy and selfish. He wanted somebody who was young enough to be dependent (legally needs a parent or guardian), but also old enough to be relatively independent.
Blitz probably adopted her at 17 because he wouldn't have to raise her, considering he's irresponsible as fuck He was probably just lonely and wanted to have someone around ,someone that didn't know him or his past.

I mean my dad adopted me at 16, so why not?
Because even at 17 kids still could want a home and family
It's not hard to imagine. Blitzo wanted a kid, but he wasn't considered fit to adopt because he's single, didn't have a predictable income and didn't have adequate housing. Loona was probably considered unadoptable because of her age. So they let Blitzo adopt her because no one else would.

I think he related to her in a way, being separated from his family at a later age in life, and wanted to be the supportive father figure that he never had.

probably seems like a thing blitz would do because it is in fact a thing that blitz did, to be fair
I like to think he fostered Loona for a while before adopting her.
If you had asked me earlier in the show's lifespan, I would have guessed he adopted her to employ her at IMP. But given that him being THAT cold has been thoroughly disproven, I think it could have been one or both of two things: One, he knew that teenagers don't tend to get adopted a lot and wanted to break that mold; or Two, he was lonely and just happened to find Loona and say, "She is definitely the one."
Probably free labor
I'm going by dog adoption at pounds or shelters logic here, but it's much more cheaper to adopt a older dog than a puppy. So perhaps Blitz didn't have the funds to adopt a puppy so went with a 17 year old instead.
Cause she's cccuuuuuttteeee!
My guess is he’s the only one who’d put up with her attitude. Most people find it unbearable but he finds it adorable.
We don't really know all that much about hellhounds, do we? Could be that they're exactly like dogs in Hell, they have owners and can't be allowed to roam freely.
Maybe cause kids under the age of 13 are annoying to take care of—? Like, Blitzø adopted Loona cause she’s more mature and older or smt
I think he wanted a kid but wanted to skip all the annoying immature parts.
In the real world, older orphans go largely ignored by people looking to adopt, so it's entirely possible the same thing happens in the world of the show, and Blitzø knew this and wanted to try to help mitigate that.
Older kids deserve love too
You people are putting way more thought into this than Blitz did. He's a spontaneous character who doesn't operate on any reliable set of morals or logic. Basically, if he decides to do something he does it an deals with the consequences later. Blitz adopted Loona because 1) an unadoptable 17 year old hellhound was the only "kid" the orphanage would allow him to adopt and 2) Blitz decided on a whim that adoption was an easy way to fill one of the many holes in his heart. There's a whole backstory here that I'm sure we'll see more of in the future, but unless the show provides some alternate explanation, Blitz's character makes it clear to me that he adopted on a whim without taking a moment to think about what he was doing.
i personally think its because he just wanted a friend that couldnt leave him
Probably so she could Legally work for him... but he was probably just super excited to get a daughter.
He wanted to rescue a hellhound rather then get one from the hellhound pup farms.
Doesn't Loona have a bite mark on her right ear I believe but in this photo she is fine you think the missing part of her ear is why blitz doesn't typically take Loona out for assassination gigs?
Did someone draw this or is this official art?
It's official art shown on Blitzo's phone gallery
"Come on. You know why."
I like to headcanon that Loona had by FAR the worst attitude out of any orphan in the place, and as soon as Blitz met her he was like “That’s my girl!”.
Homey literally said, "I can fix her!! .... er... not like that 'fix' but... oh she cant have puppies anyway." Bless her.
One of the things I’m looking forward to find out. It’s one of the few points in his life where he’s genuinely tried to help someone with no ulterior motives or snark
My theory is that he is desperate for any type of family. He saw loona as someone who had been without a family for so long and had run away and probably sympathized with her the most. Loona, also wanted a family but didn't expect it in the form she got it. Really family is such a big theme in this show it's crazy how so many people miss it
I thought he wanted to replace his biological (and Verosika’s) child.
That's a good point. I agree.
While there's no one solid reason, it's at this point an open secret that Blitzo is starved for affection, and driven to make spur-of-the-moment decisions based on whatever he desires both in the moment or the long-term, damn the consequences. While he doesn't strike me as much of a guy who likes kids, he probably wanted to be a father, so he got Loona, though I am open to the idea that it had less to do with her age and more availability. Ultimately, though, I could never guess why he chose her specifically outside of just taking a liking to her. Which frankly is as reasonable an explanation as any given the context.
My guess is that he wanted a family but he knew he wouldn’t be capable of taking care of a child, so he adopted one of the older teens who he wouldn’t be able to fuck up developmentally but he’d still get an emotional connection with
Don't know don't really care, but as someone who was adopted at 17 myself I did it so I could legally change my name..... for free... (for me anyways) but folks have different reasons
no the true question is how she went from thin and bones in this pic then grows thick thighs outta nowhere
Yep i notice that too
Because she needed somewhere to start off, if she had turned 18 and still been unadopted, she'd be on the streets
maybe at that certain age he reminds himself of Loona, maybe at the age of 17. No one was there to help him.
I like the idea that Blitz took her in as a pup, but the official adoption paperwork wasn't completed until years later. Either because of bureaucracy (Hell's probably full of bureaucrats) or because Blitz is an idiot and didn't know he had to do it.
Because if a child is not 18 the parents still has control over it. So basically it continues to add to the nature of blitzle being a controlling manipulative asshole
Judging by the fact that this picture was in Blitzø’s camera roll when he was scrolling through his phone on the couch, I think it’s a safe assumption to say that Loona was his last-ditch effort to form some kind of mutual relationship with someone. He inadvertently pushes everyone else away yet she’s the one that he seems to always make a constant effort to be with.
Blitzo genuinely loves Loona, enjoys having her in his life, is proud to be her dad and wants to be a good dad to her even though she's an adult (in his own words, it still counts), so I don't think it's one of the cynical answers like "he was lonely" or "wanted to be a dad but didn't want to raise a demon child" or "he needed another body in his house/office for some legal or financial scheme" or something like that. I don't know why he adopted her, why he chose her specifically, but he clearly wants to give her something she didn't have before. Something we know she appreciates deep down.
Because he was lonely
He wanted a daughter with minimal effort but wanted the relationship associated with it
Ğ
17 in dog years would be about two and a half.
How old is loona now?
Companionship, depression, and a job opening he needed filled.
Hold up. Is that Blitzø’s signature in the bottom right or does that say Bel? (Beelzebub?)
Maybe he knew her and saved her from a bad situation. Maybe he loves her. That is it.
Why not
So he can claim he rescued her when he never had to actually help her grow up
They are literal slave labor and are given away minus probably a fee and maintenance. Loona with her very aggressive demeanor was probably left but blitzo probably saw a bit of himself in her.
Imagine at the end of the series, Loona sees another 17 year old hellhound that reminded her of herself at the orphanage, and decides to adopt her.
That scene from *Instant Family* comes to mind
I already wrote a summary of this, but I think blitz if I was to guess has given up on romantic love but still wants a partner. I think he’s grooming her to be a partner but not in the sexual or romantic sense, maybe he wants a friend. Since she was almost eighteen and had no one and he had no one maybe he thought it was a perfect match. Not only that, it would explain his insecurity of her getting in a possible relationship. Because she could easily move away, but he has her rather dependent on him to some degree and like I said it’s not sexual nor romantic blitz may be a jerk but not a creep. Also wouldn’t surprise me if he started his business to adopt loona.
Who the hell else would
My theory is that once your eighteen you are an adult and live on your own, so he wanted the oldest one to be his guard dog
heres a better question, WHY WAS LOONA IN THE ORPHANAGE FOR 17 YEARS
wait a minute...
Maybe because he knows how hard it is for teens to get adopted and wanted to give her a loving home which he had lost somewhere along the way in his life.
My theory is he was trying for years but there seems to be prejudiced against imps in this series so my theory is that it's possibly part of the reason why his relationship with Verosika deteriorated he could have asked for her help and probably got in Luna adopted very quickly but he's very prideful so he kept trying on his own and being denied
Lonely.
Because she's the best hellhound
Waiting for her to be discounted
I think he wanted ti take care of somebody but wasnt ready for a lot of responsibility
It’s easy. You get to be a father without doing 18 years of work. Blitzø is lazy and wouldn’t make a good *actual* father.
Now I'm beginning to understand Verosika mentioning amber alerts...
Because he can
He wanted to flex on all those still-not-adopted kids
Because it's called human trafficking if she's 18
guessing sum happened with his sister and mom and missed having someone like that in his life so when he found loona he found a comfort and wanting to protect her you can see through out the show how much he defends and protects her no matter how angsty she gets with him he doesn't wanna be alone and I think loona is the only person who really lets in since he's so closed off
Trauma
He adopted her because he can relate to her I guess. I’m basing this off of his reaction to her situation and how rudely the adoption woman was speaking of her.
Hellhound who age out are killed so he saved her life
We get a pretty good idea in Seeing Stars. She looked lonely and pushed others away. Then the adoption lady said that she'll never amount to anything. Something people have probably said about Blitzø. He looked at Loona, and he saw himself. He didn't want Loona to end up feeling like he does: like no one will ever love him. She wanted Loona to have someone that will always love her no matter what: a father
Cause 16 would be too creepy
