In short, Hazbin Hotel is an adult animation that, for some reason, has not yet been banned from Scratch. For you to get a sense, I did a quick search and look at what I found:



It is ridiculous how an adult series can be spoken and commented as the prints below without restriction or punishment. Unlike other suggestions that I did, you can see that clearly, the target audience are adults, not children of 7!

Some screenshots:




Note: I watch Hazbin Hotel, it's a very good series, but I only recommend over 15 ~ 18 years to watch the series.

Most likely not. Especially with that rating, unless maybe you're just using the characters and not re-posting the show?

For some reason, Hazbin Hotel is a word that shows no project when researched, but with Helluva Boss is the opposite (Helluva Boss is a spin-off of Hazbin Hotel)

It's either they didn't get an index, which takes a while, or are banned because it was from a 17+ show. So I'd suggest not using it.

So long as any Hazbin Hotel content posted on scratch follows the guidelines, it could be allowed. Report anything hazbin hotel related that doesn't follow the guidelines.

I'd say only use the characters and not the show itself.
Since its MA, It's an absolutely-not for Scratch.

Those games might be NFE'd, or the series' name is one of the blacklisted ones that don't turn up any results.

The creator of the show specifically stated that they do not want kids watching it.
Scratch is for all ages, so no. It is not allowed.

I'd say no, because the series are mid the content is incredibly, how do I say it… not OK for Scratch's audience. Maybe the characters are fine, as others have stated, but I would suggest not using the show in general to prevent your project from being probably NFE'd. Encouraging others to watch it, I would be certain is a big no.

Nothing comes up when I search it with a hyphen at the end, and I would doubt that the Scratch Team actually managed to NFE every single one of them. There are probably just no projects made about Hazbin Hotel.

Because the Scratch Team is not aware of it.

But what does it take to get the Scratch Team to notice Hazbin Hotel?

Like, are we going to have to do a protest or something? I made a post very similar to this in the suggestions section.

Please do not do that. That will not solve anything. Protesting will only make it worse.
If you feel that Hazbin Hotel breaks the guidelines by it's mere mentioning, please use contact us to email the ST about it. If they feel that Hazbin Hotel content on scratch indeed breaks the guidelines, they will take the appropriate action.

In the meantime, report any Hazbin Hotel content that you feel breaks the guidelines.

If a fan project/studio doesn't feature any inappropriate content, then yes, it's allowed

That particular fandom, among others that are popular among kids but not for kids, has been a lot harder to push out kid spaces in general. It's best you report it when you come across it so the ST can take a look and send a notification if needed.
