HOW DO I WATCH THIS
>>
>>383954028
Have you tried having a friend who has le flix and invite them over to watch it with you?
>>
Warren Ellis' teenage boy grade writing made big chunks of it boring and irritating as fuck to watch.

I loved the narrative of the church fucking over dracula and that being the cause of his demonic rage at HUMANS.

It seems kind of stupid to set up the Bishop as the almighty cunt of the realm and then just make every single catholic priest a deplorable asshole too. Like Trevor delivers this great speech that gets the priests killed, but he doesn't really have evidence for the conclusions that he comes to.

Why do the townsfolk need to prove themselves by murdering the priests anyway? What if everyone just focused on the fucking demon army? And the gypsy cult was annoying. Congratulations you have magical powers. How about you fly away on a broomstick you pedantic losers?

You're actually right.
Everything else was spot on, but the writing was so ridiculously bad that it made the whole thing fail.
For next season add some Castlevania music and tell Ellis that if he doesn't get his shit together he's out. Maybe put someone to help him. Trevor was "How do you do, fellow teenagers" levels of annoying.

It's clear you're too dense to understand what was going on.

Lemme break it down for ya.
narrative of the church fucking over dracula and that being the cause of his demonic rage at HUMANS.
There wasn't really anything clear about the cause in the game anon. It was an NES game where we knew we were fighting Dracula.

>Bishop as the almighty cunt of the realm... ect..
So Those guys were not all priests. Holy shit, a Priest comes out and Makes god damned holy water you fucking faggot. And when the people finally believe Trevor, they kill the guy because of outrage and fury, not to prove anything.

>gypsy cult was annoying.
You're annoying faggot. They were there for a reason and it was to display the church's quickness to blame anyone not in the club for their problems. Just like in Europe during the 900's-1500's

Only thing clear here is you're some butthurt Catholic faggot.

Which is actually not ok.
Sypha was an agent of the church. You could have used the speakers as "a different holy order" and it would have worked all the same.
They come from Spain, right? Then why not use "they're from a different country and shit and they don't share our same exact beliefs"

Just watched it about 30 mins ago.

The action is pretty good and the story is ok, but I have a real problem with the voice acting as well as the sound in general. None of the voices actually sound like they're coming from the people. They all sound like VO.

I just watched this whole thing today. When it actually stuck to the lore and content from SotN/CVIII, it was really good. The fight scenes were also pretty good. But most of it was just pointless filler dialogue with tons of cussing. We get it, everyone is angry and likes to say fuck a lot. I guess they're going for the Adult Swim demographic.

The voice acting was also rather weak. Probably should hire a new dubbing director for season 2.

I don't think you know what the word means anon.

But to address what you're saying...
You don't seem to grasp others can have different opinions. I find the deviation from the source material to be lame as fuck, but whatever.

>Everyone associated with the church was a bland cartoon character.
Do you also feel this way about the villagers? The demons or Dracula? Everyone who isn't Trevor, Sypha, or Alucard?

>The church didn't actually persecute magical cults, you incomparable low intelligence
Well considering they're direct representations of the Gypsies and Roma in Europe, and they were very much persecuted by the church ever since the 1400's. So yeah, they did.

>Only thing clear here is you're ready to ravenously defend a cartoon...
And this is where I can visually see the autistic outrage. You don't even have a point here any more. It's just "I'm going to insult you."

>don't comment on the consistent adolescent writing that clearly jived with your ignorant pea-brain
It's Castlevania on Netflix. What were you expecting? Shakespeare? Tarantino? Of course it's going to be written for adolescents. That's who is geared to.

Now wait another hour to reply and say "Faggot", "Fuck", and "moron" every other word. And make sure you use Pedantic too!

It didn't feel that way to me. The four episodes were definitely standalone and the overall arc felt less like a movie and more like a season that got cancelled halfway through. There's really very little development. In about 80 minutes, they've introduced one character and two minor characters, and they team up to stop a vampire. I guess a lot of this is implied, but I think they could be done better, and four episodes was definitely not enough with this pacing.

There were a few Kino scenes though. Specifically the opening of E4. I'm looking forward to the next season.

>That was just peasants, sellswords, and Trevor though.
You mean 3/4 the cast? And Trevor's shtick was to say shit all the time. And the priests weren't classy at all.

They were part of the church but still thugs. And the bishop was a megalomaniac who thought god was on his side. It's your typical non religious person trying to write religious extremists.

This is worth watching at least the first few episodes. Only 12 episodes I believe, and only the first five or so are worth watching. Everything after that becomes contrived, and forced together so they can make some kind of shitty arc before canceling the series forever.

Why these shows aren't just 'mmo player goes into a real-life mmo and has wacky adventures', I'll never know. You don't need to make the entire world revolve around them right away, you cunts, a season or two of them just doing dungeons, trying to deal with a real-life Goldshire and generally figuring out the rules of their new world is already interesting.

Because it isn't said? Trevor Belmont makes a comment about "Wow, is a priest suppose to hold a knife" and later makes another accusation that the guys in the cloth aren't true priests. But it is never directly stated that they are hired thugs or priests who are just doing bad things.

They were basically going for the Adult Swim/Game of Thrones audience. Throwing around as many cuss words as they could to make the show seem more 'adult'. Which appeals more to the preteen audience. Not unlike GTA or the like.

You were around in the 1400s and know exactly how they talk? Also, it actually is a fact that people cussed a lot more back then. Not just peasants but the royals as well. But still, this is media aimed at a contemporary audience. Writing for TV is a delicate balance between writing to a period and writing what your audience wants. This show is on netflix so it doesn't have to conform to regulations. But at the same time, jamming something full of expletives isn't going to help a show in all cases.

Even overlooking the cussing, the way the characters act doesn't really strike me as how they would have been in the games. I mean, at the very start of Castlevania III, Trevor is praying at an altar inside a destroyed church. Yet they play Trevor off as a loner who hates the church in this adaptation. Little things like that may not seem like much, but they add up in your sub conscious and the show feels less 'genuine' over time. Even if you can't consciously tell why.
>>
>>383952509
It was a cartoon
>>
>>383968025
Do you not know what the word portrayed means you actual retard? The lower class has always been portrayed as crass and a lack of manners, because the higher class has always been portrayed as well spoken. After all, etiquette was a confirmed historical focus for nobility. Trevor is, despite his noble heritage, now a drunken commoner. He speaks like a commoner, as do the priests who are ACTUALLY just fucking thugs. This is a common writing element, and it's not edgy, which is a word which used to mean something completely different before retards started abusing it just as hard as "mary sue"

And no I've played the game and it didn't feel less genuine. Adding to characters and the story, changing bits and pieces to make a narrative, is also pretty common for adaptions. My only problem is that Trevor turns around way too quickly for someone who has apparently been a drunkard for a while.

I LAUGH when people imply I'm intellectually low enough to take bait. I always choose to reply just to spite you. I won. I've always won. Losing is not in my skillset. So you're probably gonna reply "lol epik trolled" or "u mad bro" but once you've done that you've shown me I've won. I've tricked the trickster and conquered memery.

And not only that, it's a holy priest who ends up helping Trevor save the day.

You know what that scene was? It was karmatic justice towards a delusional prick who thought he could do no wrong and thought someone he was exploiting would protect him.

I have no proof to back this up but something tells me Konami went full cheapskate no fun allowed and refused to license it's music for an international release.

Maybe now that the show's been well received Konami will untie its wallet and license some classic tunes for season 2

Do you mean the people that don't understand that the bishops men weren't actually part of the church, or how the church as a whole is not shown as inherently wrong with only the bishop being portrayed as power mad and ego driven, or how its shown that good righteous men of the cloth still receive God's blessings?

I liked the portrayal.

Yes, there were and are some corrupt fucks in every church, not just the catholic, and I really wish I could see the looks on their faces when they get sent to hell.

No, saying you're Christian and carrying a bible does not automatically make you one of God's children. Without love, you're useless to Him, and if you use His name as a reason to go on a bloody crusade, you have no right to complain when His protection is removed.

That being said, the humble, no-name priest who has the balls to step forward when called shows that even someone whose obviously afraid but is genuine in their faith has God in their corner.
>>
>>383984781
Maybe he will equip himself with holy water and crosses, now that he found someone who can actually bless water and regained his will to help people and slay the evil.

First scene with Trevor we've already seen it before. Goatfucking or not this scene still screams anime, ballkicking included. But the execution of it is just not good. It's like they wanted the character to still look cool while that happened. Which made it look really crappy. A fairly bad first impression about Trevor. The character doesn't really redeem itself except it starts doing badass stuff.
When he takes out the cloak it reminded me of Ash vs the Evil Dead, when the character spends a whole chapter looking like he can barely defend himself and suddenly he rips off his wallmart clothes and kicks ass again.
But for Ash vs the Evil dead it worked because you're not meant to take it seriously.

He could have used the "He's an acrobat" thing and disregarded the pirate stuff as a mistranslation. If not he can still go back to Wallachia after being a sea raider sinking Turk ships for some years. Reason? Add a dead relative or friend who lived in Targoviste. That's it.

This show was so painfully padded. This is what I expect out of awful movies that want to hit a 90 minute run time and it made the episodes feel like they were an hour long each.

Nothing sums up how padded this show is better than the conversation with the bishop and the demon. I was just constantly saying to myself "Ok, we get it, we get it. Stop repeating yourself, we get the point. Who even are these characters? Are you going to make the bishop some kinda crazy demon? No? You're just going to kill him giving us the most unsatisfactory wrap up to this stupid plot you've spent 2 episodes build up? What the fuck was with that 'Let me kiss you' line? That somehow sounded more awkward than the peeing in a cup joke."

I don't understand your criticism. To me I liked how the show took moments to slow down and not be constant action. If it was paced the way you wanted it to be paced it likely would have felt far too quick. Too me it sounds like you would like a movie like Suicide Squad which is just far too quickly paced and doesn't let up. It's always moment to moment leading somebody to the next big spectacle. Slowing down allows a person to think about what has happened or what is happening. Perhaps you just don't like to think when watching movies or films?

Did Castlevania really need a bloody, gory anime? What's next, an ultra-violent Sonic anime?

goatfcuker scene was enough to justify whole series thrice over

>Saw one clip and it looked like a cheapo south korean anime.
Well you are correct in that most of the animation was done in Worst Korean sweatshops.
>Did Castlevania really need a bloody, gory anime?
It's a series about vampire killers storming into Dracula's castle and killing everything that stands between them and their goal of putting down the big D.

>It's better than 95 percent of current anime shit
Not really.

Honestly, for vampire killing I rather rewatch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure season 1.

Have you taken a fucking look around? Current anime is 95% moe garbage pandering to the lowest fucking scum

i agree i wish we could go back to the past when anime was manly and full of drama and fighting robots and swords

Except that animation is better than anything you'd find on a recent anime of that genre.

One of the best animated fights in all of animu was only a few years ago.

I hope you are joking

Stop being contrarian for the sake of being contrarian. The best animation of today is better than most of the best animation of the past (save for the Patlabor movies of the early 90s, the animation in those was a miracle).

Ironically the whole Dhampir thing actually incredibly old. Not joking here. I was pretty stupefied when I read about it being a Balkan folklore thing.

I'm not the same guy you were replying earlier, but the video you posted is far from being well animated.
Mind you, I agree that present day good animation > past good animation, but you could at least bring some valid points to your arguments.
That shit is embarassing to watch.

Literally how is it not?

Better make a Rondo of Blood/Symphony of the Night adaption after this one. Netflix fuccbois would want more Alucard anyhow.

>Constant jump-cuts.
>Motion has no flow.
>Background is mostly a still picture, excpect when his brought in foreground for a couple of shots.

Again, this ain't Dragonball Super level of shit, far from it.
But you can't put Micheal Bay against Orson Wells and expect me to value your opinion.
