I think it would have been easy to write Vil as someone who’s shallow, or solely focused on physical beauty, so I appreciate the care that went into his characterization.
His idea of beauty isn’t just about physical appearance, but fairness and hard work and self-improvement. The effort you put into something you love is just as beautiful as what you accomplish. Vil built his career from the ground up, and he despises underhanded tactics precisely because it goes against everything he values.
Vil is critical of others, but he’s only as hard on them as he is on himself. In fact, he may be harder on himself because he knows his own limitations better than others. He wouldn’t be so strict on people if he didn’t believe in their potential. However, his self-critical reflection can be a detriment when the weight of his own expectations crushes him.
Vil keeps a fairly open mind and doesn’t look down on others for shallow reasons; if he dislikes someone, then he dislikes the lack of effort they put in, or people who run away using excuses or just immediately give up. People who fail to utilize their talents to their full potential frustrate him to no end.
