Castlevania: SoTN/ Rondo of Blood adaptation in the works - Please don’t fuck up the himbo. Making Grant a female or giving him a female counterpart is one thing, just don’t ruin my idiot

[White Devil]

I hope this dies a stillbirth.

"The Castlevania universe is getting bigger"

Fuck you, it's been bigger than Netflix's overrated Vampire Game of Thrones for decades.

 

[Geralt of Rivia]

You know as well as I do this thing is going to be a disaster, don't bother getting your hopes up.

Black people in Europe lol.

 

[Just Dont]

I really hope that they don't include a scene where someone gets buttfucked and raped.

 

[Derpman123]

So its going to be like games with each show focusing on a different Belmont.

 

[Rondo Richter Belmont]

At least there's that.

I'd complain about skipping the biggest badass in the family, Simon, but given the couple of seasons of Castlevania maybe that's a good thing.

Had they not skipped Simon, I have no doubt that his story would be fucked up and miss the points of his character. Hell, they would more than likely add some "STRONG INDEPENDENT WAHMEN!" who spends her time saving Simon and making him look like an idiot.

I fell off mid way through season 2 on this series due to boredom. But, they better show my "dude" Grant some respect. That's all I ask.

The "respect" shown to Grant was removing him from the series because Warren Ellis disliked the character and came up with shitty reasons why he was omitted, only for Grant to finally show up....As a black bisexual women named Greta of Danesti who is Alucard's love interest.

How's that for respect?

 

[Shokaract]

Its probably gonna be shittier than the third season of the original show.

I'm sad I got my hopes up.

Lol @ the crying in this thread. The previous show wasn't perfect by any means, but it was by far the best game adaptation that's ever been made. Gay vampire buttsex and all. Season 3 was pretty disappointing.

You mean Ellis or Deats? Because Ellis got the boot like either at the early stages for Season 3 and or somewhere down that line, because he got MeTooed and didn't know when to not play grab ass along with apparent grooming according to the woman who outed him.

No, Ellis finished the scripts for the final season before he left.

I can see why they skipped Simon, though. This allows them to have Alucard in the mix (which ties the two shows together) and do some hopefully interesting stuff with his character across shows. They can even bring Trevor and Sypha back for a cameo with the SotN "boss fight" where zombies cosplay as them or whatever.

Plus, you could delay the return of Drac with the cultists in Rondo trying to bring him back again, then actually being him back in SotN. Which would allow for a lot more dramatic potential.

Plus, the games jump around in the timeline all the time. They can always go back and do Simon (once they decide which version they're adapting).


FAKE EDIT: But wait a second... Drac isn't dead. Or wasn't when we last saw him. Unless he died of old age which the first show established is possible despite how long they live.

So how are they going to resurrect him? You could pull him out of Rondo altogether probably by making the cultists trying to bring him back most of the plot. But he has to return for SotN... and how do you do that when Ellis clearly avoided the issue because of the dramatic problems it would cause? (Invalidating character shit from season 2.)

And they've already mined the Lisa stuff in the first show, so... what's the drama with Drac and Son?

Or they could side drac all together and make Shaft the antagonist and have a brainwashed richter for a season

That's true. I could see that working, at least the Rondo part.

But they have to deal with Drac coming back eventually if they continue to adapt the series. Alucard versus Dracula in SotN is too dramatically perfect an opportunity to pass up on, arguably. (And I'm still, eventually, hoping for the mindfuck that would be The Battle of 1999 and Aria of Sorrow.) So it will be interesting to see what they decide on... and if they do it competently. Which, I would argue, Ellis absolutely did even though I have a lot of problems with the original show.

 

[John Titor]

I wonder what their justification of resurrecting Dracula would be. The whole reason he keeps coming back in the games is he's always constantly pissed off.

Now he's pissed off that they tried to make him a troon in the last season of the shit ass Castlevania anime.

Season 4 was concentrated ass. Not even woke, just written like complete and utter shit.

The dialogue was peak cringe, the romance between Alucard and Random Bitch came out of nowhere and was about as exciting and well-developed as a Wattpad fanfiction, Lenore just fucks off and dies with barely an emotional rise out of Hector, Death is randomly some snarky British vampire we've never met (before transforming into a fuckathon quipping machine), Saint Germaine is literally prepared to bring Dracula back inside of an insane body until he randomly freaks out at Death proposing the exact same plan, Trevor defeats Death with some barely set-up Daemon Ex Machina dagger that the script literally explains with a throwaway line, and fucking Dracula and Lisa come back to life and hit the road like everything's hunky-dory, in spite of A) Dracula's last moments alive being backstabbed by everyone including Carmilla, all of which he randomly doesn't care about upon coming back to life, and B) Lisa seemingly not caring about all the atrocities Drac has committed in her absence. Literally everything about this last season was the kind of slap-dash, phoned in garbage and abandonment of logic that I expect from shitty daytime TV shows on the CW network.

The only way this Richter show has a shot in hell at being any good is if the studio manages to get a restraining warrant preventing Warren Ellis from going anywhere near the script.

Yeah Issac is the the only one who got it good in the last season. But tbh he deserves it for being a well rounded character

As mentioned earlier, Ellis has been shit-canned and isn't writing for Castlevania because he got MeTooed a while back.
