Well... more of the same Netflix is doing lately: Racism, Bigotry and Ignorance. white people's religions = bad,white people = ignorant and villainous. black people= powerful and wise, black people religion = cool and powerful... Almost as if all the writers Netflix works with are Racists, only capable of hating on white people. This was sarcasm, we all know that Netflix writers are racists. The biggest irony, when you think about how these far left extremists push diversity and equality, but in truth they are simply Racists. For example, in episode 3, the story recounts the "liberation" of Haiti and Saint Dominique, which historically can be found under the "1804 Haitian massacre", a genocide in truth. But oh boy, the show glorifies this genocide, as if it were a good thing. This is at the same level as Holocaust deniers, and we don't like them, right ? So why do we not call out Netflix writers for the same disgusting deed ? This show is a perversion of Castlevania. It is not Castlevania. It's the rape of Castlevania by woke, racist Netflix writers who only use the Castlevania name to push as much woke agenda as possible.

It was enjoyable. This new title stands out all on it’s own, and is enjoyable on it’s own, meaning you do not need to watch original Netflix Castlevania series (especially if you know the games), it’s a nice installment to a beloved story by fans.  The story of Castlevania continues in a new format with new characters. I was hyped for this show and it gave a new experience for a series I love. This new story delivered with new style of animation, art style,  fighting scenes, and (slower) growth of characters. The first season definitely set up the second season to have amazing growth in story and characters, especially ones that didn’t get much of a backstory.  A lot of questions were raised throughout the story with a lot of high stake fights, conflicts, and overall living in a world where vampires are continuing to control the world humans live in . Each character plays an important part to the story, even the minor characters contribute to the main characters story in one way or another, which is really nice.  Overall  picture was nice. The story was similar to the original series with the same conflicts, just delivered in a new way. Loved how Alucards art style was close to Symphony of the night. That was nice for those of us who loved playing the games.

I had high hopes for this, and they were surely met. The action and backstories given for each character made this so worth watching. The artwork was beautiful, but the animation didn't look very smooth, especially during the fight scenes. I assumed it was meant to be that way. I hate the fact that they brought the beautiful Alucard out at the end because I would've loved to see his character the whole time. The plot was interesting, and the only underwhelming part was that after giving him back his power in such a newfound way, he was still a little weak. It was cool that he went from no magic to a blue flame, but it seemed overhyped because he still couldn't beat Drolta. Nonetheless, I am waiting for more and would definitely recommend it.
