There's already a thread

>>93737200
We can have more than one thread about any given topic

>>93737200
I'll go make another to help round things off for you.

The way I keep hearing people talk about the animation I was expecting utter garbage. Yeah it's not as fluid as I'd like it to be but it looks more than serviceable. As for the story, moving Lisa's life and death right up next to CV3 just makes me want to root for fucking Dracula. Aslo, I can't believe they kept the goat fucking anecdote.

>>93737304
>>93737319
Why scatter discussion over multiple threads and unnecessarily push threads off the board though? Especially on /co/ where people are storytiming

>>93737441
What is the goat thing from? Is it a reference to something in Castlevania?

Well the next season will probably be coming out in six months so it'll probably be the opposite of forgotten.

>>93736989
So, you like to watch Castlevania

>>93737521
No, it's just something Ellis wrote about on the old-ass fucking blog for this from a million years ago. The blog is long dead but this article has the entirety of what was posted there. I forgot that IGA was involved with that draft, so I guess most of what we got has/had his blessing.

Given the Metal Gear movie seems to be finally happening, Netflix definitely needs to have some sort of easter egg for watching both.

There have been a fuckton of games. I mean some of them are a bit light on lore and wouldn't be worth adapting, but they have material for like 10 seasons if they wanted easily.

I have a bad feeling that we'll just see a lot of generic demons and maybe two boss monsters (probably death, doppelganger, and one other one). I can see Frankenstein's monster being considered too "silly" or something.

My favorite insult in this show is definitely Trevor's description of the Bishop:
>He's beyond insane... he's over the top and into whole new lands of snake-fuckingly crazy...

>>93737884
Netflix can afford to toss money around, also tons of people have it so it's an easy place to consolidate all those viewable projects which were going to die.
Do we know anything about the Metal Gear movie and if it's even live action or animated? I can accept the latter.

>>93738992
We already know that it's going to be 8 episodes. The show was written as 3 movies, which have been split up into 4 episodes each. The first "movie" was season 1 while movies 2 and 3 are season 2.

>>93740059
Was worried it was just going to be a celebrity stunt casting thing but Richard Armitage did a great job as Trevor. Really sold the washed up hero and the stranger lines.

Why do people make retarded statements like this?

Oh no.

I'm simply pointing out that we can clearly see through your attempt to disguise seething contrarianism beneath moderation, because it's become so commonplace that it's no longer subtle enough to be convincing.

For example, the cynical jab at "nostalgia boner" really gives off that low-key venomous passive-aggressiveness that's typical of contrarian hipsterdom in a pretty blatant way. A few years ago it might have come off as a honest observation on your part and be taken seriously, but nowadays people pick up on that shit right away because the "it was okay BUT *snarky remark about current trends*" format has become very widespread in the contrarian scene.
So you're gonna need to come up with a new strategy real soon if you want to still be the edgiest kid on the block, because
-rabid hostility
-ironically excessive praise
-disdainful rejection
-dismissively moderate enjoyment
are all pretty much played out.

I think he wasn't telling them to get out of Dodge, just the old lady, He was telling them to say their prayers because they're all going to die.

The only reason he didn't kill them all immediately was because he needed to farm monsters.

>>93744151
That's because Dracula already killed them all.

>>93744151, >>93744320
To get historical about it, Wallachia wouldn't have had too many Muslims at the time (though nearby Poland might have, it was kind of crazy multicultural for a long time) because they were basically associated with the Turks whom the Wallachians were kinda sorta constantly at war with.

Hell, Vlad Dracula is literally famous for impaling a bajillion Turks on wooden sticks.

So Ellis has mentioned that he breaks away from the source material more in season 2. Will this ruin the show forever?

Why did this look so western? You can tell they were going for an anime-esque look and the designs themselves do look like that but something about the directing, the framing of the shots or the animation itself made it abundantly clear that it's not anime.
But I can't point my finger at what exactly the reason is.

>>93745700
I felt it too, but I don't know why. I feel like there are subtle design differences that people who actually have done anime for a living would never do. Certain proportions or the way faces are drawn and such. Because I feel like if this actually were made in Japan, it would just look like Attack on Titan.

>>93745700
it feel like game of throne

>>93745717
It's especially weird since the animation director Spencer Wan himself usually has that style down pat

>>93745700
I am not sure what it is either, but one positive aspect of this was, that the violence, while gruesome never felt "pornographic" like it dose with stuff like Elfen Lied and OVAs from the 90s.

>>93745679
Yes , yes it will. Everyone will hate castlevania forever and we will never see another animated adaptation ever again.

>>93745842
Damn shame too, if this show is really successful it might encourage the West to consider more possibilities for adult animation than Family guy clone #27.

>>93745679
He said he's still following the stuff laid down by the source material but in his own way, whatever that means. I can't really think of much he can change since the source material itself barely had a story. Trevor and friends go to the castle and fuck Dracula's shit up. Trevor and Sypha get married which in turn makes the future Belmont strong as fuck, Alucard goes to sleep and Grant just fucks off. I just hope he doesn't fuck it up.

He's probably just building more plot and characterization on top of the bare bones.

He might have spared them if they had razed their township and departed for elsewhere.

The only bad part about this is now I gotta go download a bunch of ROMs for the older games because I want to replay them so bad.

>>93748205
Well they just finally made it to the castle so I expect it for next season.

Order of Ecclesia is underrated as fuck.

>>93748205
Wall chicken was mentioned. I can't remember where I heard it but I know it's in there somewhere.

They're not in the castle yet, the castle's walls will just be brimming with wall chicken. When the castle inevitably crumbles upon dracula's defeat, hundreds of fully cooked chicken dinners will fall from the structure and the surviving peasants will feast.

>It was okay, nothing special.

It's not a 10/10, yeah, but being the best game too film/show adaptation ever made is a little special, OP. It did exactly what every adaption should do but always fails in:
>takes the existing story everyone is generally familiar with and expands on it and its characters
They didn't add their own overpowered OCs(donutsteel) to come in and save the day. They didn't make it a stupid comedy and overly silly just because it's connected to videogames. They didn't drastically change the setting and/or tone down the themes of the story for "broad appeal". They made it with excitement for the IP, not cynicism. You can disagree with how they characterized the Belmont and a few other nitpicks, but you can't deny a LOT of care went into this, which is unheard of considering what a low-awareness IP Castlevania is these days.
All in all, it seems they were legit trying to make a story/show out of this, while somehow not breaking everything we know about the games.

after many years I think I got it. aside from obvious proportional differences, I think the main thing is the lack of emphasis on secondary animation, and ease in ease out on western's part. while the east has a lack of squash and stretch, and anticipation. another would be western goes for more comic-like (shot variations, real time movement) shots while anime goes for more cinematografic story-telling (angles, pans)
quite intruiging these cultural differences

Actually they can't throw around money.

It's one of the man reasons why Netflix canceled pretty much all of their SJW original programing save for HoC and OITNB; they were bleeding money on original programing no one gives a fuck about and losing subscribers, who were starting to catch on towards the fact that Netflix was slowly letting all of their back catalog laps in favor of being 100% original programming.

Fuck ups: Turning Trevor from a young and inexperienced hunter into GoT ripoff to appeal to retards who think all protagonists should thirty somethings

Le ebil Church when the Church has little involvement in the series aside from sending Belmonts and other agents to fight demons and monsters

Making Dracula sympathetic. Dracula was never meant to be sympathetic, he's shown to be a part of the natural order of life. Evil and Good and the eternal struggle. Even though his origin is tragic, he uses underhanded and vile means to become what he is and fully embraces his role as the ruler of darkness

Some fags like this but excessive violence gets boring as fuck after a while.

Story lags like a motherfucker but I heard it was originally meant to only be a movie.

Still, as far as most game adaptions go, it was decent.

To be fair, he's wrongly excommunicated by a corrupt (probably demoniacally possessed bishop) who was stated to be literally abandoned by God for being so evil (he'll probably end up being Shaft), and the "priests" he fights aren't real priests, just random thugs he bishop dressed up to carry out his will. Trevor seems relieved when he finds the legit Priest and gets Holy water.

It was okish. It needed more than 4 episodes.

I liked the violence, blood and monsters. Especially since Netflix didn't have to self censor. Kinda surprised they didn't go for any nudity or sex though. Especially since excessive nudity/sex seems to be the new go to thing for new IPs to stand out.

I really hope they get the second season out fast. A year long delay WILL kill all interest in the show.

>>93750638
Maybe we'll see the Succubus in this show since they already incorporated some SotN stuff.

It's not out of the realm of possibility for this series.

>>93750638
Since reception appears to be positive. 99% chance we are getting a succubus at some point in season 2.

If not that, I fully expect them to have the lead and 'whats her name' hook up at some point before the end of the season. Something like spending the night together before finally facing Dracula.

But yeah, I was also expecting tons of nudity in season 1. Netflix is really hyping this up as their answer to Game of Thrones. (A show that boarded on softcore with the sheer amount of sex they had in the first few seasons)

animation seems inconsistent . at the start its sloppy. but the following scene its cleaner and more professional

if i had to guess some one just wanted to make a anime in america and used castlevania because its not like there is a classic anime which set the bar to high for you to ever reach ... *cough* vampire hunter D bloodlust *cough*

not even sure why it was in japanese honestly. that chicks at the beginnings nose is to sharp and her expressions seem oddly animated in that first scene. also i think they broke a modern anime rule about noses from the front to isometric angle transitioning in that first scene

>>93749873
The Belmonts have always had issues with the Church. Leon had to give up his lands and titles to try and save his wife for fucks sake. Then the church turns around and excommunicates the family because they are better monster killers with actual faith. The Belmonts don't equate the Church with their faith in God, get shit done and the Church doesn't like that.

>>93749792
>>93749892

Alucard started to figure out that the Castle gets pissy without a master and will seek one out no matter what they do; Soma doesn't want the job and the castle's choices all end up being crazy assholes for obvious reasons. It's implied that Alucard might have taken over the job himself in the future just to have some semblance of control.

>>93751005
Frederator had the writes for years and years, since 2008, if I remember right, but had trouble financing the project and finding a distribution method for it. Netflix approached them a couple years back and bankrolled the project because they see demand for it, whereas networks didn't. So Frederator hired a videogame company from Texas to handle the animation, and here we are. The anime aesthetic is, word of God, because Castlevania is a Japanese IP.
It was made available in multiple languages so it could be viewed in various countries, so Netflix can make a profit from it and keep the show going.
The way I see this, is it's picking up where Spawn left off nearly 20 years ago and is an attempt to make an animated program for adults that isn't just dick and drug jokes told by paper dolls moved around in flash.

I like how Dracula studies science and chemistry, the electric lights in his castle were a nice touch and remind me of the games.

Dracula as an immortal seeks to understand the universe and sees no research as being too taboo.

According to that old blogpost from ten years ago Ellis always conceptualized it as a trilogy of movies. So they already have an idea of where they're going to go with the rest of this series to some extent. Whether that leaves room for more adaptations in the future I don't know.

No one going into Dracula's castle could survive being inexperienced.

The church wasn't evil. The bishop and his hired thugs given positions were. This is spelled out for you when Trevor asks for a priest who can make holy water and it works.

Sympathetic Dracula is great. Let's you understand him while not rooting for him.

Violence is excessive, yes, but I believe it should be that way when fighting monsters.

Story...i was right in between "this is taking awhile" and "this is setting things up pretty well" so if they had given eight episodes or at least six from the get go i think I'd be happier.

>>93753620
I'm guessing you've never been in a fight. So when the adrenaline is running and you're really going at it your body is going full blast. A minute of sustained fighting will leave you fighting for breath, sap your energy, is mentally demanding.

He rushes forward about a minute, while making precise movements to make headshots, and then does around forty five seconds of hand to hand combat. He should be quite tired going through that hallway. Would have spent much less energy taking a knee and scoring headshots from the end of the hallway.

>>93753743
That would be correct if he was doing big movements spending a bunch of energy the movement he did that spent the most was the rush and the bayonette movements and even then it wasn't that much.

The rest is small jabs and trying to keep distance plus shooting.

>>93753790
Bayonette movements take a lot, anon. You gotta give a good thrust, and the you want to slash/rip it out. It's also unwieldy to do. He drops to the ground in one instance and gets back up. Twisting the zombie around himself. Enough that he should be at the very least winded. But like I said earlier, he went from skinny guy to mass of muscle and there are probably a lot of things they learned that are borderline illegal but too helpful to not use. Like a genetic modification that allows the body to process oxygen better. Dealing with lactic acid. Strength and endurance.

You know, after seeing so many comments like that, I listened to the entirety of the SotN soundtrack and holy shit would that sound ridiculous on this show. They made the right call. There are songs on there that sound like early 90s world music. The other stuff like squealing guitar solos would've felt completely inappropriate. It would've completely destroyed the tone of the show.

There is a difference between using the song and using a particular arrangement/instrumentation. The melodies were probably what people wanted. Though, I think they should have done the Daniel Craig James Bond thing where the famous motifs pop up in the soundtrack, but not the full song itself.

Speaking of Castlevania art, what the fuck were they thinking with this?

Shame they didn't choose a better artist to adapt the artstyle like they did in Order of Ecclesia.

>>93754706
They were desperately trying to make the series popular in Japan. Castlevania has always done much better in the West than over there. Soma, the anime artstyles and the Judgement designs are Castlevania's equivalent of the Zero Suit.

The character designs in DoS would've been perfectly servicable for an actual CV anime.

I actually really dig the left design a lot despite the anatomy issues. Other images look better. And the right Trevor is actually one of the least terrible designs in Judgement once you get past the Nomura level of belts.

Actually it really feels like they based this Trevor's design heavily off his Kojima design but scruffier and without the coattails which I assume were removed for ease of animation.

>>93754861
Vampire Killer might sound a bit goofy, but Trevor's theme song Beginning would've been fine. Good recognizable melody that could be adapted without being overbearing.

A slower version of this with lighter instrumentation would fit in quite nicely.

I can't see someone from 600+ years ago digging the vocal synths.

>>93756765
How would he feel about IDM, though.

>>93755409
And? Most stylized artstyles don't follow anatomy 100% anyway. Just look at artists like Frank Frazetta or Yoshitaka Amano, the anatomy's are nowhere near realistic but that doesn't stop them from being highly praised.

>>93756821
Instrumental Dance Music? Is this a thing? I mean. I could kind of label some shit I make that way, but still. No. Fuck that noise.

>>93756168
Blade would work more as a Devil May Cry-style game. The movies were pretty much proto-DMC anyway.

>>93756877
I agree. But fuck that. One quality vampire IP at a time. Next, we'll be suggesting Lestat assist fucking Alucard.

>>93756914
>suggesting Lestat assist fucking Alucard
that's a pretty ambiguous phrasing there

>>93756949
If it makes you feel better, I almost ended that with "Take that however you will."

>>93756844
>Yoshitaka Amano
He does follow anatomy he does not know or chooses to ignore the limits of the limbs.

>>93756966
admittedly, if it wasn't Lestat I wouldn't mention anything

>>93757027
It'd be funny to see them have a glamour-off where the loser gets some bum bum boom boom from the winner. And with vampires, the shit isn't even implausible.

>>93756844
Frazetta also knows anatomy and uses it well.Kjima though suffers from small head syndrome wich means she draws the head first and then the body wich fucks with proportions but the rest is good imo no need to be so defensive honestly you just leave your self open to shitposters.

>>93757074
holy lack of punctuation, Batman

>>93743734
That was dumb of them, sure, but the clergy was high up its ass in their belief that God would protect them from such evil. I mean, these are the same people who burned a "witch" for practicing chemistry. Do you think it's not believable for them to be just as gullible to rely on God's protection?

>>93757096
>Misses the capital letter and doesn't end the sentance.
Yes you are truly good at writing.

>>93757116
>these are the same people who burned a "witch" for practicing chemistry.

That never happened, you dumb faggot. Stop learning history from movies.

>>93757127
ending the sentence with a period after not starting it with a capital letter would have been worse

>>93757116
That was the protestants.Do we need this discussion back?

>>93757140
In the fucking series, anon.

>>93736989
>If you have a big nostalgia boner for the games it might have a bit more impact
A negative one of course, only "le nerd culture xD" faggots enjoyed this rape show

>>93757149
Now you're just baiting.

And to think all future Belmonts have her to thank for them getting continuously stronger ever generation. They better not leave out the fact that Trevor and Sypha end up together. I'm not too familiar with Ellis's stuff so I don't know how he handles romance.

What was up with that name, anyway? In Japanese it was simply Tower of the Alchemist.

>>93757202
I thought Game of Thrones doesn't premiere until next week?

>>93757140
That is quite literally what they did in the series, anon. Are you, by any chance, retarded?

>>93755477
When are we getting Trevor enjoying that "beer"? They drank warm beer back in the day, remember.

>>93757455
A properly used, imperative "remember." I'm impressed, anon.

They get triggered by good scenes?

Top kek.

>>93758253
They always get triggered if any aspect of the church is portrayed as negative, it's the /pol/ influence and deus vult idiots

>>93758253
I want r34 of this.

The last 8 years didn't help either.

You're a special kind of retard, aren't you?

I agree with you otherwise, but

Pick one.

Hnnngggg saved.Thanks anon.

Oh. So you thought shit like Elfen Lied had perfectly sensible and realistic Gore, did you? No. It's a Gore porn calling itself an anime.

>>93758674
>>Warren Ellis
>>Bad Writing

Surely this can't be a novel concept to you?

>>93758971
I, personally, like a decent bit of his work and his writing on Castlevania: The Game: The Anime is pretty good, in my opinion. Let's see you stretch a game manual prologue into hours of content, faggot.

>>93758911
oh wow, link to uncensored pic?

>>93759003
If you like reading the same cynical, jaded asshole protagonist he always writes, sure.

>>93759031
I don't have it anon sorry

>>93759039
Agreed on that point, but it fits so fucking nice for an excommunicated Belmont, don't you think? I was upset when Trevor appeared, a poor drunk, but I got over it. You should, too, anon.

>>93754496
tfw never getting VHS series like we were promised

>>93759108
If Trevor already got the Warren Ellis Protagonist characterization, what characterization are the rest of the Belmonts going to get?

>>93759161
Well, you've made a conundrum. Trevor states he's the last son. So is Simon alive somewhere else? Or is he going to be the ONLY Belmont? But Alucard was only dickified a tad. Same with Sypha. Characterization looks pretty solid, so far.

>Dracula isn't meant to be sympathetic
But that's wrong.

>>93759207
Trevor and Sypha will carry on the Belmont line.

>>93759207
Simon is generations after Trevor, Trevor and Sypha fuck after killing Dracula and make some little Belmonts that are even stronger and Alucard goes back to sleep until Symphony of the Night
