I've only played the first game for NES, so I'm not really a "fan" and the show probably isn't made for me. But I was interested and watched it.
Pro's
- decent sound direction
- decent score
- good art
- good art direction
con's
- British accents for Medieval Balkan people
- mediocre historical accuracy in an historical fiction
- Frankly stupid levels of Christian-bashing considering the source material and vampire mythos in general
-Dracula's wife is cringe, relationship is rushed making Dracula seem weirdly 1-dimensional
-Trevor Belmont is generic and uninteresting
I think it could get better with some better writing in following seasons. What does /tv/ think?
it was ok

to lazy writhing for my liking.
I liked it but I'm not a fat neckbeard so, maybe I'm missing something.
Play Castlevania 3

>historical fiction
>vampires and monsters are real
ok
also you need to take into account netflix only payed for a 4 episode "season" although its already been confirmed for season 2 which will be 8 episodes
Knockoff Vamp Hunter D so far.

castlevania netflix was bland and mediocre as fuck
the game series had great unique monster designs while the show had "grey demon humanoid x99999"
it was shit.

How is that not historical fiction? I'm not grinding the nitty gritty, I just don't see too much between this show's portrayal of Wallachia and generic fantasy kingdom #99999x.

Even if you don't like the Church, it still doesn't make any sense in this context. Ignoring the "relijon r bad" trope that's been done to death forever, it literally makes no sense to villainize Christianity in a mythology where crucifixes and holy water are go-to life-saving items. And it's not even done well. As antagonists the Church in this show is literally retarded and 1-dimensional. This is some comic book-level of shallowness.
