My favorite is definitely Julius Belmont from Aria of Sorrow. It's just such a unique twist on the formula, where you fight a Belmont as Dracula and overall such a quick, but extremely intuitive fight.

Puppet Master has to be the most metal boss, right? He's the Master of Puppets AND he has Iron Maidens!

Good taste. Happy to see Gergoth so high up there.

I believe SotN bosses lack one very important thing... That's certainly HP.

The best Castlevania boss would be Dracula/Death combo from the Portrait of Ruin. You don't get more metal than that!

Ahh the memories ,portrait is definitely up there for me as one of the best castlevania games but I would love to play sotn tbh

puppet master scares the shit outta me

Most of these bosses I never heard of... There is a lot of Castlevania I haven't played.... Got to get on that!

One of my absolute favorites is still the fake trio from SOTN. It's such a treat to the long time fans of the series!

Adramalech has always been my favorite for some reason

This is a pretty good list and Dracula definitely belongs at the top, but a couple very memorable ones I feel that you left out are Brachyura from Order of Ecclesia and Koranot from Super Castlevania IV.

DRACULA CIRCLE OF THE MOON

The werewolf in front of the moon howling was 🔥!!!

Absolutely outstanding video many thanks

One of Pazuzu's attacks is to summon imps and, damn, he makes the most drippy pose of all videogames, he just sees you with a "Hmm, lets see if you survive this, mortal"

This video didn't give many of the bosses a chance to show how powerful they really are

the dawn of sorrow death fight iss far better and more difficult than most of the other dawn of sorrow fight on here

How is the Forgotten One from LoI not on here?

Second form dracula from circle of the moon. Hardest version of dracula

I like how the video clip art literally shows a boss who looks more than a little like Kimkoh

Classic castlevania doesn't get enough love Dracula in super castlevania 4 is 🐐

number 1+ Julius Belmont

I like death shaft and dracula. Storywise they all seem important and cool. Also the succubus was a unique boss.

Boss 19 Galamoth took WAY more damage when hit in the head than in the legs or other body parts. I could only defeat after focussing my strategy on headhunting.

Great ranking. I miss only the fight against Barlowe

Respect to those who defeated Galamoth without Crisaegrim

Mostly these bosses are basically only order of ecclesia Symphony of night y Aura of Sorrow You forgot many other games like judgment or like the old ones too

Konami, please make a collection of the portable Castlevania games.

So number 8 on your list is DIO Brando

Should add the final form of Dracula from circle of the moon. Probably the most awesome design for a Dracula boss.

man the boss death animations are so awesome in SOTN, i wish every other game had such extravagant collapse animations. they just kinda explode and fall apart most of the time lmfao

The best dracula fight is certainly not the one in order of ecclisia

Very Nice

Simon Belmont vs the Werewolf: That's a bad doggy! No dog biscuits for you!

Legion was placed better in Portrait of Ruin.

Resumen Puppet Master Galamoth Adramelech Legión Alucard Pazuzu Abbadon Dagon Hombre lobo Dullahan ( Jinete sin cabeza) La Muerte The creature Zephyr Talos Mecha Armor Devorador Gergoth Eligor Goliath Dracula

Best boss is Dracula x Death in Castlevania Portrait of Ruin. 2 vs 2. And the OST is insane too

Opinions on bosses: 20. They're creepy and quite tedious with how many times you have to avert your attention to destroy the puppets. Only redeeming factor is the music really. 19. They have supposed relevance to the plot, and are extremely powerful. *Unless you use the Shield Rod with the Alucard Shield, you cowards.* 18. Surprisingly awesome for a boss that doesn't use his hands, or have much head animation. Dunno why they're awesome, but hey, they are now. 17. Ah yes, everyone's favourite corspe sphere of another name. Honestly feels like they get bigger over the course of game release. 16. Only time would tell us that this boss would become not just a companion, but damn well the most popular character in the series. Fight is kinda meh though in my opinion. 15. As a person who recently played Harmony of Dissonance, this boss is very good. Of course, I mostly used the Fire Spellbook and Axe Combo, but they're effective enough. 14. Very great use of mythology to make this boss amazing to fight. Good bosses almost always come from DoS. 13. Yeah nah, I don't like this one. It's design is silly, the boss itself is frustrating, and I don't think it's worth playing the boss rush for. 12. To be honest, Portrait of Ruin did this kind of boss better, with better size, appearence, etc, but it's at least better than the femme fatale version of it from chronicles. 11. Should've made the head the weak point and the armour invulnerable to damage, but that would make this unfair for a 'first boss'. 10. A great fight against this Castlevania Icon. But why, oh why do their forms have to always be so... weird? 9. At least this fight against them isn't as bad as SotN. But they made it more creative at least with all the hidden trinkets they have. 8. If Dio Brando made his best impression of Edward Scissorhands, and became a Castlevania Boss. That's all I'm saying. 7. You escape this thing during the intro, and you finally get to fight it. Talk about build up! If only there were extra stages to this boss... 6. They walk around.... They smash axe.... Axe make shockwaves.... You jump.... That's it. 5. From being a random enemy in the Boss Rush of AoS, now becomes a full fledged boss in OoE.... Except in concept, they're much worse....... Oof. 4. Yeah, this boss is cool, especially when falling through the floor. 3. 7.8/10 Too much size. Too much weakpoints. Still kinda good. 2. Basically The Creature on Steroids. But a very great boss to fight, that's for sure. 1. Who else?

Contra's Pretty-Woman-Face Tick got A new job at Dracula's Castle!

4:34 I always block that attack with StoneWall, because make me feel invincible

epic video............

It's my boi Gergoth

Very very nice

Not a bad list and it's good that you were giving recognition to some underrated bosses rather than just multiple iterations of Dracula and Death, but I don't get why Sir Grakul was on this list, particularly as high up as he was. He was so underwhelming I wouldn't have put him on the list at all, let alone just outside the top 5. Did you just want to get at least one boss from Super Castlevania IV in, and you thought all the others were worse?

How about what game and system they are from? You can figure it out, but I would have included that if I had made this! Thanks for the content, appreciated, but found that odd you did not include that information.

Nintendo DS represent! It seems like a third of this list comes from the series' entries on that system.

Granfaloon? I allways thought that was Legion

you forget barlow in castlevania 3 order of eclesia

I did a re-run of portrait and ecclesia. About ecclesia. Vol luminos (or luminare, the fk light magic) plus vol umbra plus domminos agony plus death ring. You will take damage though.

I lost it at Frankenstein's Monster packing heat...

2:46 oh legion have two names?

Wow, didn't know Dracula had the genocide cutter move from Rugal

Agree with the list.

Why are there Harmony of Dissonance bosses in this list

Where's Graham Jhones?

Ooof! Death from SotN is the worst Death boss Battle for me. He is so darn easy. A push-over. Well, the extreme worst Death is at Castlevania 2, you can literally walk or pass-by him XD

20 really? so dull 19 yeah i see why unless u cheese him. 18 sure kinda engaging fight. kinda hard no matter how good you are. i died a few times on other ''character'' runs 17 granfaloon/legion always a mediocre fight sure it looks dope first run but its still a big ball 16 the og dracula. eh.... sure? 15 feels like malphas but more lame. 14 creative boss but not enough moves but i do like the style. and its a challenge on a no damage no mp run. 13 lame but the water mechanic for once was nice and refreshing. 12 felt like a true boss. hard patterns many moves. 8/10 11 first time i faced him it felt like i had to try and kill a boss in the newer series. 10 one of the cooler deaths in the series. next to rondo of blood who is the hardest imho. 9 kinda eh compared to the lower bosses. 8 ah the JOJO MEME and a meme it was. such a pushover he could of been made a tad harder. 7 the less cooler version of a golem from aria and dawn. im sorry this boss was so lame i often forget he exists. 6 ur gameplay showed it best. total pushover. 5 this being a boss again after aria put him in boss rush felt weird. so many better boss designs 4 ah gergoth one of my favourite beat sticks in dawn and the ps3 game where u can team up. kinda cool boss design with the 2 stages. many attacks 3 interesting idea how u can climb it. many parts. yeah i see why top 3? 2 goliath? i mean... he is kinda cool but uhm where is the real good and cool shit.... dracula from ecclesia. draculaXdeath portrait. hell even somacula dawn... 1 dracula ecclesia. so much more would of fit here. but this boss felt like such an anime trope of.... i cant beat him i will kill myself. my top 3 no specific order somacula : in dawn on julius mode with alucard and yoko u face against soma after he lost his mind seeing his girlfriend die. draculaXdeath : in portrait of ruin you play as 2 heroes jonathan and charlotte. so death thinks: we can do that to. and the most intense battle ensues. dracula rondo of blood : just an epic fight with a few boss phases.

Galamoth should've placed much higher than 19. Also if you could put the bosses, you could have put the Castlevania game titles on each one time. Pretty lazy.

The most difficult boss in the series hands down is Death in Castlevania I without any sub weapons.

what game is alucard boss from?

I'm surprised Julius isn't in here.

Puppet master is created by the toy maker in Lord's of shadows 2

I dont really like Eclessia, it was a little sad for me that most of the monsters came from that game.

Alucard=reverse dracula?

10:24 esse foi épico.

Is it just me that finds bothering the fact that dracula is extremely tall even in his human form? he is always depicted almost twice as tall as your character, isnt he supposed to be relatively normal sized?

É delicioso jogar contra o goliath

Where is chaos from aria of sorrow

20 no me gusta mucho pero es el terrorífico maestro de las marionetas 19 el más resistente de este juego uno de los mounstros que supera a Dracula base 18 la cabra maligna que use para un perfil de facebook 17 Es uno es todos épico por su historia bíblica 16 El mejor personaje El mejor vampiro sin duda 15 Se parece al del nes 3 14 ???? El hombre bicho 13 Es un poco extraño pero bueno 12 Me encanta su gran agilidad y fuerza 11 se ve genial en el castlevania circle of the moon 10 son épicas sus transformaciones y montón y montones de técnicas especiales 9 Es sin duda uno de los bosses más fuertes 8 ! Pasemos al siguiente 7 muy muy épico se ve mejor ( en mi opinión ) en el bloodlines 6 exageradamente fuerte 5 Es en verdad un gusano no un esqueleto me gusta su alma del aria of sorrow 4 épico como rompe pisos sin parar 3 muy fuerte y muy complicado morí muchas veces al enfrentarlo 2 El mejor Sprite de los mounstros del order of ecclesia 1 tubo muchos cambios en su diseño y su personalidad

Omg, could barely disagree more... No Albus? No Julius? No Barlowe? And some of those bosses are so lame to me in comparison, specially eligor, and I didn't like Death as much in Order of Ecclesia as in other games... Also, Aria of Sorrow deserved some more love, I loved death in that game, and Legion as well.

Ok so your favorite bosses…these are all from like 5 games my guy

The one aspect I don't like about OoE is the bosses. Not bad, just underwhelming in comparison to the rest of the game.

I'd change zephyr for balore from aria of sorrow, that fight was friggin sweet
