Fubuki Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 So I haven't seen anyone talk about this. So I'm going to ask. What do you guys think of the 4 episodes of the Castlevania series on Netflix? I think the animation is great and the gore is awesome. I played the first 2 games on NES but I suck at both of them. This series is based on Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse. What are your guy's thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syumisan Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I was going to see it but....why is it *only* 4 episodes? I thought they were long, hencing only those 4, but its only 22 minutes each? I am a little confused o.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageamusement Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I enjoyed it very much, missing the great Castlevania tunes (no Bloody Tears!) but I am eagerly awaiting series 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each episode is building up so well I don't think it needs to be longer than 22 mins. But yah only 4 episodes is a kind of a bitch. At least the rest of the series will air soon.

nyantzu1986 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 it was very bad, in my opinion but better to try it for yourself, some people do like shows like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVMcypress_grave Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 There was nothing wrong with it in my opinion but it was not long enough to accomplish anything other than setting the stage for another (hopefully full) season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1rvine Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Someone else commented about this on the website here a few months back, but I had forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdhight Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Pro: Animation, action/gore, voice work, dialogue. Episodes end on nice cliffhangers. Con: It feels like a movie that was cut into 4 episodes. Completely silly how much time is wasted muddling around with evil priests when we could have been fighting vampires or other cool monsters instead. Main action seems weirdly miniaturized compared with Dracula's nation-spanning threat. It has serious flaws in and of itself, but they are flaws that will sort of naturally resolve themselves if this becomes the start of something awesome. If this turns into the first 4 episodes of a 13-episode show, the shortcomings could so easily become non-issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virdeborn Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I really enjoyed it. It's basically a prequel movie to Castlevania III, divided into four parts. Something tells me that the inevitable Blu-ray release will be presented as a full-length movie instead. Actually, if I'm not mistaken that was the original pitch too.

Major_Kiba Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 As someone who has never played any of the Castlevania games I thought that it was above average. The action was good and I would be interested to watch anything more that comes about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
