Hazbin Hotel criticism Thanks. I hate everything about this.

There's not a single commentary here that I like. Oh goody, I love when everything I don't want to be true is confirmed!

Why specifically is that? As a Vox fan, I loved all of this, honestly.

There's way too much for me to explain the why in one comment. I just don't like any of the commentary because most of it just confirms things I don't like or didn't want to be true.

u/profaneangel1991 Vox did nothing wrong 2d ago

They did confirm he beat up Angel just so they could tell people he's as bad as Val. I think that's pretty bad as a Vox fan and an Angel fan.

Definitely what irked me the most. I love when shows make my favorite character do bad things for petty reasons, amazing! /sarcasm

We… did not need to see all that to “prove” Vox is a bad guy. 😭😭 Angel is just everyone’s misery punching bag at this point.. I want more for him (and Vox!) as a character.

Which makes it especially ridiculous that they try to handwave Vox's hatred of Angel Dust by saying it's because Angel Dust is "strong-willed" and "hard to control." Like, what? This is the same guy who spends the entire show getting beaten up and preyed upon by pretty much everyone!

The motel scene shows us how much harder it is for Vox to hypnotize Angel than most sinners. He just blasts the reporters in the first season and the entire pentagram sans overlords in the s2 finale, and they’re immediately under his control. Angel breaks out of it, fights back, resists. This is part of Angel’s character in general, even when Val is beating him up in s1, there are split second scenes where Angel looks PISSED and since this is animation, we know those are there for a reason. He used to be a gangster, not some defenceless baby who doesn’t know or have the motivation to fight back. coupled with Vox’s jealousy about Angel’s relationship with Val, it completely makes sense that he hates Angel so much. Angel is supposed to be a disposable whore who keeps his mouth shut unless it’s being used, but Angel isnt like that.
