So a mutual asked me to write a review of Castlevania Nocturne as someone with a lot of salt for the netflix adaptation. So here you go.(minor spoilers under the cut)

If I give Nocturne any credit, it's probably that I like it a lot more as a story that doesn't rely on sex and violence to tell it. The characters are fleshed out, the action is solid, this interpretation of Olrox genuinely surprised me. It's just some things that keep it in the realm of fanfic for me. Like how this is a mix of rondo, harmony of dissonance and bloodlines in terms of how it's story is written. Richter also kinda takes a backseat for a few characters but at the same time, it's not the worst. I also appreciate how it doesn't demonize religion so much as the people who abuse the authority that comes from it. There's a particular scene that actually kinda made the investment fun for me and I'm really glad it's not another generic slave revolt story. Overall, 7/10. Could be better, but it's a shape-up from how I felt after the last two seasons of netflixvania. Would I have prefered a shot-for-shot adaptation of my favorite classic castlevania game? Of course. This just didn't offend me as hard as, say...making the guy who soloed TREVOR BELMONT a whipped pet.

Castlevana S 3 Scattered Thoughts - SPOILERS!!

SPOILERRRRSSS again just in case

SPOILERS ok??

I didn’t trust Suki and Taka for one second, there were many instances in which they exchanged looks and they left me wondering why would they spend precious seconds of a 21-min episode in those exchanges, so - As Anton Chejov would’ve loved to say, if you show a gun (those weird looks) use it for something (the betrayal at the end). I saw it coming miles away. Am I angered/sad by it...? Actually, I’m disappointed by Alucard’s whole story arc. I expected more of it, Suki and Taka were the last thing I expected for it. I... don’t know what to think of his plot, I do think he needs a hug. Now.

At first the animation seemed a bit stiff. Coming from the second season, where everything was AMAZING, it kinda struck me as weird. Also the voice acting seemed a little off at first, like the actors didn’t match/synch completely well with what we were watching?? I guess?? But then it changed towards the second half of the season and MAN those last two episodes were glorious. Trevor with the dual whip??? AAA’<??!!?

Overall, plot-wise, this season felt quite barren. We only had a handful of Hector’s moments (ooooh in a sec, just in a sec) and Isaac being the husbando we all want. But both Alucard’s and Trevor/Sypha’s storylines left much to be desired. Yes, plot twists here and there, but seemingly non-consequential with the over all grand scheme of the series. I mean, you have to top last season’s finale, that’s no easy feat.

I think Sain Germain’s dream was a bit too long. I understand he powerful he magic he wizard he historical person but it kinda dragged on for too long for me. I did like what I saw in that dream huh

OST still good here

Hector and Lenore. Now, I love Hector, I don’t think he’s dumb, I just think he needs a hug, like Alucard does. And I hate myself because I shipped Hector x Lenore, but saw her betrayal coming miles away - this one is more obvious though, because it seems that Hector getting backstabbed is a running gag at this point. I also read somewhere here that there’s a nice parallelism between Lenore and Hector: she’s basically what he was in the second season, with the same ideals and such. Hector being treated like a pet by the end, when in the past he only wanted pets (dead humans...), it’s, uh... almost divine judgement, let’s say.

I do hope Lenore betrays her gang for Hector - or Hector beats the shit out of them, I need something good to happen to him. Once. Just once. Please, creators.

I kinda like Striga x Morana, felt like a nice addition, their dynamics are goals (like, scheme an evil plan together?? please). Also Trevor x Sypha were like a panacea too, they’re so fun together and just dsajkdasdsa they make me go uwu.

ALSO idk why I’ve just remembered this BUT as soon as I saw that this season was 18+ and read “violence, sex” i was like - wait, are they gonna fuck in this season?? and they’re gonna show it to us??? whaaaa?? And it wasn’t just that - It’s the first time I saw a man completely naked in an animation. Like, completely. It’s more common to see female breasts, it was a nice change of pace. I don’t even know why I add this item, it was shocking when I realized it. Now you’re all gonna say that I didn’t watch enough animation - believe me, I did, it’s just that generally genitals are kept in the obscure you know

I don’t want’ Dracula or his wife to return. I don’t want it. Yes, given, it’s gonna make up for a huge and amazing scene if it happens, but truthfully I’m tired of the trope that when an important character dies, they get to be revived. Please don’t. Also, it takes away all of Alucard’s character arc’s weight. It’s the best and fastest way to destroy his character. Please don’t. Edit: I KNOW Dracula dies and comes back many times in the games, I just don’t think it’s a good idea. I’m only commenting on the show, not the games, sadly I haven’t played them since I never owned any Nintendo console and yes some of them are on the PS4 now but I don’t think that type of game is for me. I only own Curse of Darkness for the PS2 and I tried to get myself into it but I just couldn’t with how slow Hector walks in that game. So, sorry if I seem a little off with that item: it’s because YES i’m not a fan of the games, i’m only a fan of the show so far.

Well I guess it’s pretty obvious I didn’t like it much, at least I didn’t like it more than the second. Watch at your own risk.

LOL Konami...

So we have a new Castlevania game announced this week and found out it’s a gawd damn mobile game....

Even worst, it’s not made by Iga or the Lords of Shadow team.
