Let’s learn how to draw Vox Akuma from NIJISANJI EN’s 4th wave today!
Vox Akuma (ヴォックス・アクマ) is a male English Virtual YouTuber affiliated with NIJISANJI EN’s fourth-wave, known as “Luxiem”. Vox was the last of the group to debut. He is the Voice Demon from the past who held great power , and has the power to influence or control others with his voice. Though confident in his superhuman abilities, he looks after those who are loyal to him
Vox is mysterious and suave, but he also has sillier side that likes making crass jokes and doing impressions of characters/people, one of which notably being Gordon Ramsey. Despite how silly he often is, however, Vox can be wise and uses the knowledge he’s accumulated over the years to give good life advice and support. He is flirtatious, notably with Mysta and Ike, and is always willing to give his audience a bit of fan service.
Vox’s fans are called “Kindred”. Vox’s YouTube membership is called “Citizenship”. The demon that hangs around near Vox is a yokai named Oni Giri. Oni Giri was also a moderator in Vox’s chat. He seems to be quite a good cook, enjoying fancier, gourmet dishes. He likes cooking, voiceovers, arthouse film, peppermint tea, hibiscus tea, Ike Eveland.
Step 1
As always all the blue and green lines are just construction lines and will be erased later so do not push on your pencil too much ^_^ I will try to be super efficient with the text so will only describe steps that require some explanation.
Make sure to leave enough free space on paper for next steps. You can see how much space you will need from the size of the paper on this picture.

Step 9
Lighten all the construction lines by “stamping” the kneaded eraser on the paper. Make sure to refer to the picture bellow as you need to ink only some parts of the construction lines.
Step 10
Wait till the ink is nice and dry and erase all the construction lines.
Step 11
To add colors, make sure to sketch the color outlines with the right color or pencil first.
If your goal is to become a real Mangaka and design your own manga characters make sure to try to draw Vox Akuma from memory several times. Always compare the drawing to the original and correct any mistakes you see. Do this till you are happy with the result. It doesn’t have to look exactly the same, don’t sweat the details. The point is that you get the main shapes right and that it looks good. This is the best way to build a huge library of manga shapes in your memory that you can use to draw and design your own manga characters ^-^.
Draw with passion! ^_^
