So this had some cool fight scenes and decent environmental shots, but seriously what's with the over-the-top edginess?

>muh cursing everty sentence
>muh "church/religion is actually the true evil" subplot
>"Your God has abandoned you" [kills priest in church with shots of Jesus stained glass windows]
>overly gory and excessively violent shots of women and children (including babies) getting killed/mauled

The creators of this show want to make a Metroid cartoon after this but I don't think I would like it if it's even as remotely over-the-top/try-hard in it's edginess like this.

castlevania has always been excessively edgy and gory

This is still pretty good overall, don't get me wrong. It just seems like Avi Shankur or whatever his name is went over-the-top in his "gritty re-imagining" for the show.

>>384153457
But the priests in the first episode refer to satan and dracula as two different figures. They thought he was the devil at first but then when he showed himself they go "You're Dracula! You're supposed to be a myth invented by peasants!" or whatever.

As far as the games is concerned. Dracula is flat out said to the opposite of God. Maybe the show will do something different from that. Or not.

Jesus didn't even exist. He was a Jewish revolutionary that got executed and his life was reimagined by the Romans when they needed a convenient way to placate the masses.

They don't mean it literally. It's not like Dracula existed since the dawn of time.

Well yeah. But he's still more or less considered Satan anyway.

Are you ten years old? There was nothing excessive about all that. Seemed pretty tame to be honest.

That would be consistent with earth's history, which the Castlevania universe happens to take place in.

Funny how people discourage historical proprietary only when it doesn't agree with their biases. Reminds me of a certain board.

>Church higher-ups use the institution as glorified organized crime and to exert control over the masses, many of their subordinates are basically thugs in robes, which is historically accurate as anyone with even rudimentary knowledge of what people in the church hierarchy got up to, can attest to

You're just looking for something to be offended by.

plot-twist: this guy is the real shill in these threads and tries to instigate a flamewar to keep the thread alive and maximize the amount of people who get reminded of this show's existence.

The only people that don't see the implicit irony in the general edginess of Castlevania's story tropes are privileged westerners who's only exposure to religion is entirely based around zionist nutjobs. The messaging and tone are much easier to understand by anyone familiar with the East's religious history, a place where LE EDGY FEDORA SHITPOSTER has next to no ability to connect the dots now that he's outside of his own religion-based culture. There's a lot less enthusiasm to read or learn about things worthy of a tipping when he's not mad that mommy made him go to sunday school.

>being such a christcuck

>didn't even understand the critique it gave you

the local (normal) pastor was able to make holy water for trevor since he seem to be truer to the virtues of christianity than that big organised one who killed so many innocents, hence even the demons knew he was a sinner through an through

you are such a fucking idiot holy just kill yourself you subhuman mouthbreather

The problem with it was the fact that it was boring as shit. Couldn't stomach 2 episodes of that garbage, and I love Castlevania.

>Church is evil
Nah. More like stupid and ignorant and use the whole God stuff to manipulate uneducated people. Just like in the middle ages and even then there were exceptions.

>The Bishop getting killed in the church by Drac's demons
Due to the fact that what he did was something God would never have approved of (aka: killing innocent people in HIS name). If he were a good person then it would've ended differently.

Those awful marvel anime make alot of sense after seeing this dogshit, he was credit for the story for all of them.

Trevor Belmont is an unlikable twat and jack sparrow wannabe. The main bad guys are evil ninja priests that i don't give a shit about. Dracula is a wimpering bitch crying over his dumb dead bitch wife. Show sucks and made Castlevania seem boring. Could've been so much better but retards are making it.

>>384162545
Yeah, that was another point I forgot to put in the OP. They made Trevor such a try-hard "I'm too cool to care" douchebag anti-hero. How are we supposed to like him? Just because he's ex-communicated and disliked by everyone? It's hard to root for someone who's already a douchebag just because everyone else doesn't like them either.
>>

>muh "church/religion is actually the true evil" subplot

It wasn't though. The fact the bishop could make holy water and that demons could enter the church are implicit examples that God exists and is good.

Why do so many people have to default to just straight-up baiting people when they make new threads? It's not even effective for starting discussion here since the netflix Castlevania is still new and popular. You're just poisoning the well right out of the gate. fuck you

This is SOTN revisionism.
During the NES era it was just spooky.

This would be the theme song of the show if I made it.

The series has had gore since Bloodlines. Honestly trashy b movie style horror not being edgy would be a massive mistake.

Yeah, I'm not saying it would be a popular decision, but at least I'd like it more than this western anime thing.

Castlevania Chronicles for the canon (according to IGA) Simon adventure. Or Castlevania 3 so you can see what inspired the show.

>Takes place in Romania
>Everybody except the notGypsies has some kind of British accent

I can understand Trevor Belmont since that's a British name but there's literally no reason why everybody else should have Cockney accents and shit.

Why the FUCK do they keep doing that with historical works? It's the same shit with anything involving ancient Rome.
>>
>>384168447
It's easier to hide bad acting behind an accent

I really have no issue with the church being portrayed as corrupt.

As someone else pointed out there was a priest able to bless and make holy water.

This shows that individual believers are not evil or anything like that. Only that the upper echelons of the church are corrupt.

My main criticism of the show is how short it is and because of that how they had to cram tons of world building in. Granted the decision of 4 half hour long episodes probably wasn't their idea but it still sucks. I would've enjoyed seeing Dracula and Lisa's relationship delved into more but maybe we'll have flashbacks in season 2?

As to the retards saying Trevor is too edgy I have a hard time believing you wouldn't all be salty fucks if put in his shoes.

>muh "church/religion is actually the true evil" subplot

Why does every idiot bring this up? The new and older bishop were simply power hungry assholes along with their partners in crime, nothing else. They had nothing to do with Christianity with their evil intentions, and get killed for their stupid assumptions.

The only thing that was missing from the show was Castlevania songs and more monster variety. Other than that it was pretty okay.
