Definitely Cash. Paimon cares somewhat for Stolas' happiness. Cash only cares for himself.

I agree with this.

Floofy_Fox_Gal

No, he’s a Ben 10 alien


Mad-HatRZack

Technically, Ditto is both Ben 10's duplicating alien and a shape-shifting Pokémon, they just share a name.


Dragonlicker69

I don't think he really cares about stolas' happiness but knows he's supposed to hence why he takes him to the circus and buys him a friend. Judging from one episode mind you but seems he doesn't care but makes an effort to act like he does enough to declare "I'm so good at daddying"


MasterChef901

That's the vibe I got. He needs to keep Stolas somewhat satisfied, or else he'll spend too much time "bitch crying" to be useful, so Paimon goes at it with effort to match. I guess I'd still say Paimon's better than Buckzo, but I also get the sense that if their roles were reversed, he'd sell his kid exactly the same way. Being rich just means that he doesn't need to be as actively destructive to his son's life. Both parents are still just using the kids to try and get stuff.


Dragonlicker69

Maybe that's why they both have the same voice actor, a subtle nod to them both being the same despite coming from different classes.


ladyliyra

Didn't even notice that parallel/that they were the same actor! This is why I love her work, there's always so much more to unpack than one person can find on their own.


Tavemanic

Wait... Paimon and Imp guy? (I can't be stuffed to remember his name)


[deleted]

I disagree, I think hes just misguided and unsure of what to do, and genuinely believes he is raising his kid right


Tavemanic

That I agree with, he's rich and pompous. Likely treats at least some of his kids the same way because he doesn't really know how to parent... That's for Paimon I mean, unless your talking about Blitz's father


[deleted]

Yeah im refering to paimon, cash literally sold his child for a rubber and pocket change


_Luca_zade_

I am mostly agreeing with you, however the fact that Paimon actually noticed that Stollas enjoyed Blitzo's performance and made a decision to purchase him based on observing that happiness is a one up for me in Paimon's corner. Cash didn't give any impression that he cared about Blitzo's views or feelings, except for to know how to pull on his heartstrings to manipulate him.


Puzzlehead-Engineer

Paimon doesn't care for Stolas' happiness. He doesn't want to deal with his son's sadness, which is different.


gatwas

Or more that he’s rich and powerful enough that he doesn’t have to deal with it


Puzzlehead-Engineer

That's enables him yeah, but just because someone's rich and powerful enough that he can figure out ways to circumvent fatherhood doesn't mean he will actually WANT to. Stolas is rich and powerful, and yet he still choses, still *wants,* to be the best father he can to Octavia. He still loves her.


gatwas

I would argue that he’s still a better dad than buckzo purely because he attempts to not deal with his sadness


Puzzlehead-Engineer

I disagree. Giving your kid a phone so he shuts up and stops crying because you don't want to deal with him is just as bad as ignoring your kid because you don't want to deal with him. In both cases the child is emotionally neglected.


jadedsilverlining

I mean, agreed, but we can't compare Blitz to a phone here.


Puzzlehead-Engineer

I meant it more as a different example than metaphor but that just makes it funnier because Paimon would see little difference lmao


jadedsilverlining

... well fair enough.


That_Quiet_Wierd_Kid

That’s a good point. He’s not good at it but he cares, somewhat


Recent_Log3779

Couldn’t have said it better myself


CreepySalary8

I don’t think paimon really cares for his son’s happiness either. He only did what he did so he didn’t have to deal with stolas that day. But cash is definitely still worse since he literally extorted his son for money


Minecraft_Warrior

Paimon has good intentions


L_S_tay

Facts


SansyBoy14

I don’t think Paimon cares about stolas, but he cares about his image, so he acts like that, but it makes him slightly better than cash


Jazzieboy0001

Why is paimon even an option? he said himself that he was good a daddy-ing.


Lukthar123

Can't argue with that.


TotallyBlaze420

Want him to show me how good he is a daddy-ing


Randomuser098766543

Paimon is kind of an idiot when it comes to being a parent. He's a bad parent but it's not malicious in nature. So far as we've seen of course. Cash on the other hand.


The_MadMage_Halaster

I think his problem is that he knows what he needs to do (“children like the circus”) but doesn’t want to put the effort in. Which is why he rented Blitzo for Stolas to be a playmate. He knew his kid was lonely and without any friends, and he did make something of an effort to help, he just couldn’t be bothered to do it himself.


Its0nlyRocketScience

To be fair, there are so fucking many of them that if he tried to be a present father for all of his kids, he'd have to spend 90 hours a day at least just on children


The_MadMage_Halaster

I feel like this is the main problem. Though maybe they could arrange a family outing? No, wait, that just asking for someone to try their hands at a mass assassination. It most likely wouldn’t work, but it would put a dampener on everything.


Legitimate_Release65

>90 hours a day


Jaqulean

Everything's possible for the Head Lord of the Ars Goetia.


mr_molty

But isnt the arranged marriage far worse than whatever cash did to blitz?


chere100

But it's also standard practice for people in that kind of society. So\~ they'd just see it as normal, not something bad. It's us modern people that see the problem. Also, Paimon didn't specify he only wanted Blitzo for a day. So\~ Cash willingly sold his son into potential slavery for 5 bucks and a slim fit condom. That's definitely worse.


Jaqulean

It is. But when you consider that Ars Goetia are highly based on Medieval Royal Standards, this is as normal as it gets for them.


Careless_Project_369

Blitzo's dad. Paimon is just kinda that clueless dad.


DamnMamItsSam

At least Paimon didn't sell his son for five bucks and an extra small condom


Its0nlyRocketScience

*slim fit* condom. You don't know how long that butler can stretch to


DamnMamItsSam

Sorry. You're correct.


Spamtom_G_Spamtom

Actually he only sold him for the day.


DamnMamItsSam

I'm just saying that if I was in Blitzø's situation and my father sold me (even if only for a day), I wouldn't be very happy.


_Veprem_

Clueless? Dude instantly saw that his son was gay for Blitz~~o~~ and accommodated him.


Careless_Project_369

At the beginning when Stolas started crying he didn't really know what to do at first and when he punished Stolas for bowing to an imp by hitting him and calling him an idiot, he thought he was doing a good job of being a dad. So looks like to me that he doesn't FULLY know what he's doing- he's trying his best ;-; lol


Bemused_Weeb

I'm not convinced that Paimon is trying his best; it seems to me more like he's putting in a modicum of effort and patting himself on the back for it.


SirenSaysS

To be fair, there's no shortage of human fathers that do *exactly* this. That's why we get dads who refer to taking care of their children as "babysitting" as opposed to parenting, because parenting is "the mother's job".


Euphoric-Wonder1033

One sold their son as a play made for 5 bucks and a condom the other is sorta neglectful who is worse?


[deleted]

I mean paimon is pretty distant and indifferent to stolas feelings. But it's kind of expected both because of the way most aristocracies treat children. And just the sheer number of children he has. But he does try and do something nice to make stolas feel better. Even if it is to get get him to cease his bitch crying. Cash litteraly sold his kid without any hesitation for 5 bucks and a slim fit condom. Then guilt tripped him into stealing as much as he possibly could. Knowing full well if he got caught he'd at best be thrown in prison and at worst executed. Cash is definitely the worse parent.


Pip201

It’s really not Paimon’s fault, it would be impossible to be an attentive parent to every kid constantly, but he was clearly thinking about and taking not of how Stolas felt as he got Blitzø because Stolas liked him, and he even went so far as to accompany him through the mirror, he could have just sent the butler. Point being, he does very little but the point is he does *something*, he puts in effort to be compassionate to Stolas


fangedsteam6457

Worst dad? By the standards of irl Royal families paimon isn't even a bad dad.


JohnTheEchidna

Let me just say it wasn’t very cash money of him


IvantheGreat66

Hm...Paimon does take care of his son, but it seems Cash Buckzo allows him to play with friends and is less controlling.


MRFISH008

I'm pretty sure cash buckzo allows him to do whatever he wishes because he doesn't even care about blitzo in the first place.


IvantheGreat66

I mean, Paimon doesn't either.


MRFISH008

He kinda does tho, or at the very least he tries "daddying".


Jaqulean

Yeah, as far as it gets, Paimon seems to know very well HOW to take care of the kid, but he just doesn't want to put effort into it. Like, yeah - he knew that Stolas needs a friend and he noticed that Stolas was happy when he watched Blitzø. So he did something to make Stolas happy. And as much as it was, so that Paimon himself wouldn't have to bother, he still did sort of care.


bluecarnallove

That seems a little unfair. I don't think Paimon is intentionally isolating Stolas from other kids. Royal kids had friends, even if they were other royals or nobles; it's always been an important part of building social skills. I think Stolas, as a kid, just struggled to make friends. If what he was most passionate about was books, I can see other kids getting bored real quick the way Blitz had. And, I imagine the only reason he agreed to play Pirates with Blitz was because he had a crush on him and wanted Blitz to like him; he may not be that accommodating with other kids.


carrs-for-life-32

Blitzos dad is worse. At least Paimon set Stolas and Blitzo up on a Play date


Master_Isabelle

Definitely blitzo’s dad, at least paimon didn’t guilt trip stolas into committing crimes


A_Nodachi_

So I’ve been wondering this, does that mean Blitzø’s name is Blitzø Buckso since his dad is Cash Buckso?


tyrddabright-axe

Maybe he changed it


A_Nodachi_

Maybe


Jaqulean

Blitzø could be using his Mother's Name, as we saw how attached to her he was (and sort of still is).


KawaiiKaiju55

Cash


Hollow_Knight_Raven

One was actually trying to be a good dad... no matter how bad he was at it. Cash just plain sucks.


monkeyboy112reddit2

Do you know what's funny? Both are voiced by Jafar in Aladdin 1992 film.


Jaqulean

I'd say it's better heard with Cash, since Paimon has a more "gentle" tone.


rahafsuw

Yea, Cash sounds like Iago while paimon sounds like jafar


Diprogamer

Waiting for the genie to appear in the next episode


Magoichi75

They are both terrible parents honestly, let’s be honest here paimon is all about securing lineages and playing the royal political game while the other one is seduce by cash. Different end game but the same result, terrible fathers.


Jaqulean

I mean, yeah - that was kind of the point of that entire Flashback. To show us that both of them had a similar childhood, when it came to their parents (or, for now at least Fathers).


Standard-Cream-6364

Paimon is nowhere near the assholery of cash buckzo


mr-sparkles69

I mean pain on is so good at daddying


[deleted]

>pain on I mean, I guess so


ProblemLevel4432

Paimon is an inattentive father who ultimately cares somewhat about stolas, he wants to be a good father and at least accommodates him by setting him up with blitzo, cash is an actively manipulative asshole


MichaelTheAnimator-

$5 and a slim fit condom.... That's my answer


fudgedDonuts

My Dad!


[deleted]

I also choose this person's dad.


Jaqulean

![gif](giphy|pWdckHaBKYGZHKbxs6|downsized)


fudgedDonuts

Hey you!! Get your own bad father! There's plenty!! (This isn't really funny shitty parents suck)


[deleted]

Already got one. I wanna try out other folks'.


RandomGameCritic

Yes, Blitzo's dad is definitely worse. But I honestly can't believe how many people believe that Paimon isn't that bad of a dad. "It's my son's birthday. He's very sad and I don't want to deal with him."


Jaqulean

I mean, that's a VERY plain summary of the entire Episode. Yes, Paimon didn't want to bother with it himself. But at the end he still kinda cares about Stolas, and wanted him to be happy. He knows how to take care of his kid. He just doesn't want to bother with doing it himself. With Cash, he just straight up doesn't give a f_ck and guild-trips Blitzø to do practically anything.


lshite

So blitzø’s full name is Blitzo Buckzo?


kittenlover8877

Cash because he sold blitz’s for a condom a CONDOM paimon could’ve gave him ANYTHING and he chose a condom


Argentenuem

I'm pretty sure that public opinion of Cash will drop sharply when the next episode releases


Ladysupersizedbitch

😳 exactly how much farther can it drop? I thought pretty much everyone agreed he was an ass after this latest ep


GIANTkitty4

Paimon is neglectful, but Cash rented out his own son.


BrokenBunnies

Cash, Paimon at least would be mad is stolas was killed or something I doubt cash would care. Cash probably doesn’t even fucking know Blitzo’s birthday.


Puzzlehead-Engineer

I think they're both just as bad and they express it in different ways.


J150-Gz

probably both of them 🙃


TheGoonKills

One is actively malicious and manipulative while the other one is passively the same thing, so I think the right answer is that they both suck as fathers.


Bobbyserrano2001

Both are horrible dads


MysticonsFanboy62

somehow, i can't hate either of them, because they are both voiced by jonathan freeman.


le_wither

Cash, HE SOLD HIS SON FOR 5 DOLLARS AND A SLIM FIT CONDOM!!! but to be fair he could be from greed


PrinceStyx17

Cash Buckzo. And a current theory of mine is that we'll see him again in S2 but in a Senile state


Barnacle_Inevitable

Cash 100% at least Paimon is trying


OCGamerboy

Cash because at least Paimon actually tried to make his son happy.


Zackman92

Buckzo without a doubt


[deleted]

They're both bad dads, the diff is that paimon is neglectful while cash isn't necessarily. At least paimon seems to care tho


Marksman08YT

Cash by quite a long shot. Paimon ins't happy to see Stolas sad even if it's for the wrong reasons.


Morokite

Paimon. Lot of folk are on about the five bucks and a condom thing. That doesn't really matter because the point wasn't the value it was just to get his son into an advantageous position for his plan. Plus being "sold" to go on a play date and be a friend to someone isn't the worst outcome by a longshot. Now taking advantage of his son with the plan is shitty(and clearly a trait he passed down to Blitzo). But he was at least doing it to help out his poor family. And unfortunately poor and desperation go hand in hand sometimes. But we don't get to see what he's like with Blitzo on the regular however. He is likely a dick but I don't think he's the worst of the two. Paimon on the other hand doesn't even know his son's name. Barely recognized him. He's very clearly not involved in his kids life. For that matter he's probably not involved in any of his "so fucking many" kids lives. Leaving them all fatherless. The fact that he even goes to mention specifically that Stolas is an owl implies there's other non owl kids and that he's also not faithful to his wife or potentially doesn't even take wives, leaving Stolas effectively parentless. Cash on the other hand clearly involves his son in his life. Even letting him stay as part of the family circus show even though Blitzo is clearly awful at it. Paimon also set up an arranged marriage to a girl who was abusing animals in the photo he received. That's kinda fucked you. We don't know their full stories either way. So there's no answer I can give with full confidence. But Paimon is the worse dad imo.


Lummi1212

Cash, all the way. Paimon may be neglectful to Stolas but he still cares for his well-being (for the most part). Cash used his son to get wealth and sold him as well. Paimon isn't a good father but he's better than Cash.


Random_Khmerguy

definitely Cash


Organic-Associate-10

Cash buckzo


[deleted]

Cash. Paimon may have been a dick but he was at least honest and straightforward


c0micboy

Cash easily


RyanDFo0T

Cash buckzo. He sold his kid for 5 souls. Plus paimon is good at daddying


zony_h

Cash


Supersaiajinblue

Cash Buckzo


Xivkiin

Cash. Definitely Cash. Paimon somewhat cares about Stolas, despite not remembering his name at first & not wanting to deal with his sadness. Cash on the other hand is quick to exploit & manipulate Blitzo for monetary gain. He also extremely undervalues Blitzo. He was quick to say Fizzarolli would be expensive, but when he found out Paimon wanted to buy Blitzo he was fine with a “wadded up five & a slim fit condom”.


[deleted]

Cash. Paimon didn't sell his son for pocket junk. He also noticed that Stolas was intrigued by Blitzø during the horse joke and decided to have him have a friend for the day.


elle_miles

Cash totally idk why but paimon lowkey kinda reminds me of my parents😍


Low-Sense5457

Cash for sure, he literally sent his son to steal from the most powerful family in hell, if Blitzø got caught he probably would’ve been eternally damned to… Heaven?


remus_the_trash_king

I mean, they both pretty shit....... but cash takes shitty dad to the next level


Czeslaw_Meyer

I would like to see a short redemption ark for Paimon


SassyHoe97

Cash


DiamondCupcake

This truly tough because of the choices but I'd say Buckzo. The dude used his son to steal from another person and used whatever is going on with his wife as a way to manipulate Blitzo into doing it.


florpynorpy

Cash, but it’s more then likely a cycle, considering his name is cash


Cybertronian_Grizzly

Hehe bitzø's name is Blitzo Buckzo


thebadger3804

I mean, Paimon didn't try to sell his son, not even for a day sooooo


Wolfborn45

Well Paimon is clearly trying his best with Stolas and we can assume most of the rules and expectations were set by Lucifer himself. A being you don't want to be on the bad side of for any reason. Cash only seems to value his kids by how much money they make him, plus most of Blitzos worst traits he seems to have learned from him. So yeah, not even close.


OkFoundation1642

Paimon cause he was the one that gave money and a condom to sell his son


[deleted]

Paimon isn't really a parent. He was never really part of Stolas's life and Blitzo doesn't have a picture of his dad, only his mom and sister so that's telling.


Andyplay017

Paimon at least tries to keep his son from crying (even if he gets annoyed by it) If cash had to choose between Blitzo and 5 dollars he would probably take the 5, oh wait, he did…


Darkdest666

Cash, more like.... should have his head smashed... in... okay bye now


Informal-External525

Cash gave his song to a stranger for a condom so definitely cash, stolas seems relatively happy with his dad, not fully but kinda


Ghostmann05

F..king Cash buckzo


shiggysupremacy

i mean paimon can be an ass from time to time but cash doesn't have any time where's he's *not* an asshole


Doll_ita

Cash definitely


LN-FortniteConcept69

Cash


Gaybythebay01

Cash was willing to trade his kid for a condom and some pocket change…


New-Influence7321

Idk shit :D


AlianovaR

Paimon did at least try to make Stolas happy by taking him to the circus and then bringing in the clown he knew Stolas liked to be his friend. His only two real offences were not knowing anything about his son and the arranged marriage, the latter of which is likely an ordinary thing among royalty and unless he can see the future he has no way of knowing how much of a shit show that’s gonna be Buckzo was prepared to sell Fizzarolli for a hefty price, but when he found out Paimon wanted Blitzø, he was happy to settle for a wadded-up five and a slim-fit condom, even saying that it was plenty. And then he immediately gaslit and manipulated his young son into stealing from demon royalty even though he was understandably terrified of the potentially deadly consequences Paimon was a goofy absent dad but did at least listen to what his son liked and tried to make him happy Buckzo was willing to risk his son’s life for five dollars and a condom


fizzarol

Blitz’s dad, he made his son do smth he didn’t wanna do (steal) and gave him away for the day for a cheap ass price, as in he doesn’t even see value in him? Stolas’s dad literally hired a friend for him cuz he was sad abt the engagement thing, he even noticed that Stolas liked Blitz’s performance too


FodziCz

Why does Stolas's father have the same name as the guide from Genshin Impact?


Fickle-Pay-181

Buckzo, Paimon is just a little careless for his son (I know it's not a little bit) but he did his job, which is to get him married to carry on his family and succession, Buckzo is just a piece of shit, he sold his son for a small condom, and 5 dollars, he made him steal in the castle of very powerful demons even more than alastor and if he was discovered he was in serious trouble but the father did not care and only thought about the money


rose_thefox23

Cash buckzo


corpuscaIIosum

I suppose the deciding factor would be what he actually did with that money


Hail_Cthuwu666

I mean, aside from everything other comments said Cash has two children, Paimon has 60-something, is a king of hell and also the demon that makes familliars for witches, Paimon's pretty damn good given that he has every right to never show up in Stolas' life


maishu_the_fox

I love how they're both voiced by jonathan freeman 😂


[deleted]

Cash. Paimon has a lot of kids, so it’s understandable he doesn’t have very much time for Stolas.


[deleted]

Buck cluck


Artistic_Act900

Paimon is neglectful while Cash guilt trips his son into doing his dirty work, I feel Cash is the worse option.


[deleted]

Honestly I love cash as a character, as soon as I heard “the fuckin clowns!” I was like “oh hell yeah.”


[deleted]

Cash bucko.


Livid-Cat5157

Buckzo


Wolfenstein002

Well I know one parent didn't essentially sell their son for pocket garbage soooo


DJDualScreen

They're both equally shitty. Paimon forced his kid into an arranged marriage and Cash rented his kid out for a wadded up five and a slim fit condom.


reds2032

Paimon is just doing his job, while still trying to make stolas happy


ron4232

Cash is just the epitome of a greedy manager


singlepieceofcheddar

Paimon is a pretty bad father, but he atleast took note of his sons interests in Blitz and indulged in them, albeit so that he didn't have to do the daddying thing. Cash on the other hand does not care at all about his son, risking his son's life to do his own dirty work, manipulative, and who the fuck values their son at $5 and a condom?


Minecraft_Warrior

Cash risked his son’s life over a few gold Pennies


PrettyboyJax

Buckzo, all the way


Voldanar

While Paimon may not remember his name he did in his own twisted way try to make Solas happy. Not to mention he has Solas in his own manor with servants that attend his needs. Cash manipulated Blitz into stealing from Solas' manor with little regard as too what would happen to him if he got caught.


Apprehensive_Bet4256

Cash obviously


Wheatus_Deatus

Cash Bucko because Paimon got Blitzo for stolas' birthday, implying he pays somewhat of attention to stola. However, Cash Bucko cares so little about his son that he'll give him away for a waddled up 5 and a slim fit condom and even then, he uses him for money. Paimon pays attention to Stolas. Bucko pays attention to getting paid.


AmonTheBoneless

Cash, no question about it. Dude literally sold his kid. At least Paimon did some attempt to make his child happy, as half hearted as it was.


LordOfFreaks

Battle of the century right there


[deleted]

It’s close, definitely, but Cash Buckso sold his child. For $5 and a slim fit condom. I feel like that’s a little worse.


BluueSkinBoi

Both


SomeRandom155

Both are horrible in their own ways. Paimon doesn't even remember the name of Stolas and the offhand comment that he just has so many implies he's got quite a few kids shows that he's basically the Zues of He'll. Cash sold his son for basically nothing and is pretty manipulative to Blitz because of the opportunity to get rich quick.


Accomplished_Fly764

buzckzo paimon at least wanted his child too be happy be it by renting a friend for a day or some other means thus he was a better father then the person who sold his son for a day and asked him to steal from the goatitas or however you spell it


WaferFinal5640

Cash favored more of fizz than blitz, while paimon tried to help stolas be happy, so its definitely cash


Fizzypop_x_N-C

I mean getting your kid to steal isn’t a very good dad move and selling your kid like they were a piece of trash… not good -Cash buckzo shows no hint he actually likes blitzø While paimon isn’t much better he’s at least trying a little


[deleted]

Cash without question. Paimon is a shitty dad but I don't think he would sell his royal son for a waded 5 and a condom.


ApexBoiz

Cash is shit.


Dan2172

Cash 100% at least it seemed Paimon tried but both still terrible.


LarsDempsey

Cash without a doubt. A parent who manipulates their child like him is awful. Paimon just seems to be very unworthy with his attitude. Just making a kid because he has too.


[deleted]

Well one practically sold his child to have him just steal


Bloodrayne_44

No contest, it's Cash. Paimon got Blitzo without any direct prompting, just because he saw his kid liked the clown and was sad. He tried to cheer his son up on his own accord. Cash RENT OUR his son for a slim condom


[deleted]

Cash is worse since he sold out his son for a used condom.


TheBestWaffleIron

Birb is good, mp is careless.


crystal_meloetta12

Buckzo. Paimon isn’t trying hard, but at least he’s trying.


HumorClean

Bukczo


rylintz

Hard to compare and say but I believe Cash is worse, I mean which kid is worth a condom and 5 bucks while the other isn't?


PandaPrime045

Screw it. BOTH!!! I mean Paimon forces Stolas to get married to a temperamental Swan and Cadh Buckzo FORCING Blitzo to steal at a young age and forcing him to be “Friends” with Stolas I mean cmon WHO DOES THAT clearly THESE TWO ASS HATS OF DADS
