* BeneathTheMask - His V-Chats on Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses depict him as a SerialKiller, CombatSadomasochist, and PsychopathicManchild all around... with the exception of his interviews with toy creators, in which he presents himself as a happy, nerdy, passably well adjusted human being [[spoiler: this more or less being [[ADarkerMe the real Vangelus]].]] Unfortunately, [[InvokedTrope at the end of one interview compilation, he begins to tear the mask away]]...

* {{Foreshadowing}} - The Subtitles hates it when Vangelus foreshadows things that are less than 10 minutes away. The [[Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy Hot Toys Batman]] review, meanwhile, foreshadowed a review of the Joker that showed up three years later. [[Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses On a different website.]]

* TotallyRadical - Since the name "Vangelus" tends to get taken a lot (due to the musician Vangelis) the actual [=YouTube=] account is "Vange1us", which he insists "shows you're street-smart to the internets, and I'm takin' it back for the kids." Occasionally, when referring specifically to his Youtube channel, he pronounces it "Vange-one-us."

* EveryoneHasStandards - During his "Spreem's Womens" reviews, Vangelus ended up looking at two different figures of [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Yoko Littner]] which both had [[SexSells springy, poseable breasts as a selling point]]. While he's obligated as a reviewer to mention it, Vangelus is noticeably uncomfortable, "demonstrating" the feature as quickly as possible and then moving on to other subjects. The Subtitles are pretty understanding about this, merely looking in the other direction until Vangelus is done and sparing him any of the usual {{Snark}}.

* HerCodeNameWasMarySue: A running gag is his ongoing efforts at fanfiction, which is naturally laden with this. The most significant is his portrayal of Omega Spreem, depicting him as "Omega Supreme's much smaller and cooler brother" who has bedded more women than you can imagine and has at various points destroyed and recreated the universe out of boredom.

* DarkHorseVictory: His (sadly now gone) review of a bunch of Thor figures included a Thor from the original ''Secret Wars'' from the 80s--barely any articulation, a comic-inaccurate paintjob, no cape, and an arm consumed by a "throwing" gimmick that caused the hammer's handle to be bent like a banana and removed a shoulder joint. He was fully expecting it to be the ButtMonkey of the review, since those gimmicks have a long habit of not working, but to his astonishment, the gimmick worked perfectly, with Thor being able to lob the hammer fairly straight and with some force. He spent a chunk of the review just playing with the throwing gimmick and ended up declaring it his favorite of the three (only knocking the lack of a cape), beating out both the Transformer and the ''Marvel Universe'' version.
