Vox is Even WORSE Than You Think

Vox the CEO of Vox Tech Enterprises deao leader to the overlord group the v's and bitter rival to Alistair quickly became one of my favorite characters in hasman hotel I just knew from the moment this guy started talking I was going to enjoy every moment he was on screen now that's good television but no matter how much this guy entertains me there's no denying he's a complete scumbag as a person within the show's universe and context it feels like not enough people seem to actually recognize just how bad this guy is because he's typically overshadowed in this regard by his business partner slri with Benefits Valentino so I wanted to use this video to discuss why I think Vox is such a well- constructed villain in the grand scheme of hasb hotel and to explain why he's even worse as a person than some of you may believe like with the Alistair and Lucifer videos I did recently let's take a look at vox's design first while not directly stated anywhere it's likely vox's design was meant to intentionally parallel the likes of alist not only due to them being bitter Rivals but the way they use their brands as overlords fitting into the same category of expression through some kind of form of Technology alist being the classic old style radio while Vox takes the more moded route using TVs the internet and apps on a cell phone this combined with having a literal TV for a face a hat sporting antennas and a Wi-Fi signal can even allow Vox to directly connect to other electronics from very far range this is something I'll go into more detail on in a little bit and just like how alistair's voice has a bit of a static effect to it to make it sound like he's speaking over the radio all the time vox's voice will sometimes have different effects to it albeit not as often as Alistar there are some instances where vox's voice will sound like audio coming out of an actual TV this usually happens when he's mad well think about it what did you just say then there's more rare cases like sound effects you'd hear in game shows will come out of his head great idea now that's why they pay you the big bucks it's always nice when details like this are put into characters his name seems to either be a reference to the Latin word for voice being Vox or a combination of the words voice and Ox either or Works to fit as design and business Endeavors as well with it being so focused on technology and the progression of Technology despite being confirmed to have died in the 1950s there seems to be a decent amount of fans that are confused about the choice to give Vox a flat screen TV for a face when flat screens weren't even invented in the 1950s yet well it wouldn't surprise me if the reason Vox was chosen to die in this time period was because in real life the 1950s was the time period where television began to act as the main medium used to affect the Public's opinions on the world which is something Vox does himself to the extreme through not only his own technology but to other Sinners and face to-face interactions too to keep them buying his products no matter how bogus they may be also if you look closely during Vox and Valentino's interactions in episode 2 radio killed the video star a picture of Vox and Valentino shaking hands can be seen on Val's desk with Vox sporting a typical fatback TV for a head insid picture those TVs of course being the ones in style back in the 1950s so it seems Vox being the tech obsessed guy he is was even able to change his own head to keep it in line with the times if you think about it having a fatback TV for aead when you're running a tech company that's trying to market the most upto-date tech probably wouldn't be the best look for the Press wouldn't you say like mentioned before Vox spawned in hell around the 1950s and quickly Rose to power as one of Hell's most notorious overlords founding the tech company voxe that s/m markets a wide variety of products from vaj Tech Vox tube the vone and Vox Tech Angelic security just to name a few most of these names being parodies of real life products but rewarded as puns with Vox or the other V names all of these different products allow to control a very large Market in Hell's Pride ring arguably having the most control over the general consumer Market in the pride ring or at the very least pentagram City though because Vox is just an Overlord which makes it borderline impossible to have further influence outside of the pride ring the likelihood of Vox ever reaching the same Heights with his business as Mamon Azie or the other seven deadly sins would be extremely low to not possible at all even still the amount of influence he's able to have on just this group of Sinners is quite a large group in itself eventually he formed very close business Partnerships with Valentino who is a very big name in the adult entertainment industry and velvet a young social media influencer and fashion designer the relationship formed between these three was more than just business now known as the business group the v's these three overlords quickly became close friends with one another sharing an entire building together to conduct the respective business and check in on each other regularly Vox and Val in particular forming a bit of an intimate relationship on the side something that wasn't explicitly outlined until episode 8 and seems to be very casual no strings detached kind of thing just off the fact that Vox chooses to closely associate with these two people on a close friend basis and you know main business partners I think that already says a lot about his moral code and how he views those who can't help him make money or keep power Valentino is horrible for obvious reasons velvet is arguably the least defensive but she's still pretty bad mostly off the fact that she helps produce a love potion that Valentino sells and uses on his own employees to get them to behave don't really think there needs to be too much elaboration on why selling a drink that's basically a legal rofy equivalent is horrible Vox is fully aware of all of this and allows it to happen under his watch he's the big boss of this whole operation his love for money and power seems to have no bounds even showing no problems with the idea of having Valentino shoot and presumably kill their lowest earning employees using the lives of other Sinners as some kind of sick game to cheer up his temper tant from throwing lover but I'd say vox's desire for power or rather to make sure he can stay in the high ranks in hell is evident through his rivalry and deep hatred for Alistair although it seems more of the specifics about their past will be explored in season 2 right now at the very least we know there was a point where Vox tried to convince alistor to become a close business partner of his presumably on the same level of partnership as valid velvet however Alistair being the prideful individual about Old School radio and hater of advanced technology he is refused vox's offer resulting in a fight between the two where Vox almost lost by the end obviously neither of them like each other but Vox clearly holds more animosity toward Al than Al holds towards Vox this kind of hatred is a mixture of professional and personal hatred upon finding out Alistair returned after his 7-year after since Vox basically had a mental breakdown feeling extremely threatened over the idea that alistair's radio broadcast could overshadow his own TV programs Vox instantly went on the offensive here trying to suly alistair's name in any way he could think of I hope had Ace still one of the best songs from season 1 by the way Alistair does retaliate but is simultaneously so unfazed by the whole thing calling Vox out on his overly insecure nature and poking fun at his constantly evolving formats Fox Falls for this Hook Line in Sinker losing his temper so much he Short Circuit and loses his signal to help influence his side of the story I cannot wait to see more of this explored next season because even now with season 1 being over the dynamic of doing these two characters is still my favorite in the entire show perhaps their involvement with each other again will be stemmed from the newly acquired deal Alistar made with Charlie in episode 7 because Vox did say in his meeting with Valen velvet that one of their top priorities now is making sure no deal is made between those two good job and making sure that didn't happen by the way guys as for a flashback even if it's one of the those no dialogue kind of flashbacks like we got with blitz and Fizz from hell of a boss I'd eat that up episode 8 explores this hatred for alistor further but in a much more comedic fashion vo is constantly watching the hasbin Nel Alliance gear up to fight Adam's Exorcist but instead of cheering for their nobility to fight against those who have been killing Sinners for years he's laughing and hoping for their downfall even getting aroused over Alistar getting beat by Adam when the war was in full swing I am so hard right now like this vo not realized that if the hasb been Alliance does lose then there's a chance Adam Loot and the others could pull up to the v tower and get rid of them I'm pretty sure those three don't have access to Angelic steel so there's no way they'd win against that Onslaught and to give Vox some credit he did seem impressed when Nifty was able to kill Adam it's not like he sees Adam as some potential ally or something it's just that he hates Alistar and everything he Associates with so much he'd rather root for the leader of the group who's killed thousands of his kind for ages it's some Next Level right there and the first thing Vox plans when he's under the assumption Alistar has abandoned the hotel after losing to Adam is to capitalize off of Hell's disarray with the V business hoping he and his two besties will be the only ones running hell or at the very least the entire Pride ring once they start working Vox really is the worst kind of CEO these kinds of evil CEO characters aren't really anything new per se but this kind of character rarely gets old to me because of how real it feels tons of media will parody these kinds of Shameless business owners who don't give a single damn about the consumers or their workers just wanting to make their own Pockets fat yet these kinds of execs still exist in real life and are very prominent and pulling the strings and depending on the company making things worse for everyone but themselves but the scary thing about Vox is the cers he's marketing to seem to have no clue how bad he is if anything they think he's the model CEO who does genuinely put the people's needs first he seems to mainly sway The public's opinion through his hypnotic Powers a power that seems like it's able to be implemented into the technology he sells to so no matter how bogus one of his products may be Sinners will continue to buy since well they've basically lost all sense of free will the moment they come into contact with just one product they buy one and now they literally can't help but buy more the fact that this business slogan seems to be trust us just makes it all the more chilling and kind of disgusting like the guy literally sells a drone product that's advertised as peeping on your neighbors to be a fun time I get it's hell and some of the freak centers probably SE no problem with that but come on dude I do wonder if siners purchasing these products or at least specific products of higher value or how Vox is able to make deals get people souls and stay as powerful as he does like if a sitter buys a certain product but are required to sign some kind of agreement before or they can leave the store with it or it could just be owning The Souls of the employees that work directly for Vox Tech like that one guy who was confused about the Angelic security Simply Having guys like that under the same kind of Soul contracts as Angel and vals but to add on to his exploitations of the masses even further Vox uses his technology to spy on others if he pleases those Vox tech security cameras are everywhere I highly doubt he's using those cameras to prevent crimes from happening either he's doing it to spy on people in the worst ways possible it's how he had eyes on the extermination war and it wouldn't surprise surprised me if he was watching everything that went down in the club with Angel and Val so despite my love and appreciation for Vox as's character and his role as a villain in hasb been Hotel there's no denying this guy is just downright awful thank you guys so much for watching let me know in the comments what you guys think of Vox do you love him hate him love to hate him I'd love to know your thoughts if you enjoyed this video don't be a stranger to hitting that like button down below and subscribing for more content like this in the future but for now I will see you guys next time peace out take care bye-bye [Music]
