How to do dialogue of characters done right.

lmao they spoke like obnoxious teenagers with 2-year old humor that almost everyone has the same personality.

@@crimsonite09 Totaly agree.

@@crimsonite09 still made them kinda human?

@@itsblitz4437 Alucard didn't blabber with swear words and unfunny humor in the games and he still felt like human.

Also sounds like the legends of tomorrow on the CW lmfao.

@Deniselee28 Dungeons and Dragons

We need more characters like that in shows.

True true

Oh he is gonna need a few therapists

​@Dragonborn oh no no no~ He's going to need a LOT of GOOD therapists that can understand him DEEPLY.😅

Everything Lenore did had an air of playfulness attached to it, and that coupled with Hector 1. being on team 'enslave all humans' 2. playing along and 3. turning the tables in the end all make it easy to forget how objectively awful becoming enslaved would be, because it never got past the point of looking like a consensual roleplay. That she's a smoking hot redhead with soft domme vibes doesn't hurt either. Sumi and Taka were on screen verbally scheming, and while they are also victims operating on survival and distrust, we are shown how pitiable and isolated Alucard's whole life has been so we empathize with them less. Their scene also came off as more menacing and brutal which 'killed the mood' of any titillation the scene otherwise might have had. The way a scene is presented has huge influence on the audience's reception of it.

It's her attractiveness and her demeanor. Even though we know she's cruel, she hides it behind gentleness and attractiveness to the point where the audience takes the bait just as much as Hector did. That's part of the reason why I love her character tbh. She's so well executed that even the audience falls for her shit lol

They are the bad guys. Expect them to do bad guy things.

Your not wrong but the gender reversal of the role is part of what makes Lenore interesting Like yeah she’s hot and I want her to step on me but in reality she’s a predator You can like a character and find them interesting but not condone their actions I personally don’t like what taka and sumi did because rather than talk about it with alucard or sneak around or learn it in secret they went straight for sex murder

Idk I like her character but I don’t condone her actions. And the comparison with Sumi and Taka might be more apt if they had just as much screen time as Lenore, but they don’t so we don’t even get to know them, all we know about is a extremely brief backstory and their attack against Alucard. Perhaps if we had more time with them we could’ve liked them as characters but not condone their actions in a similar way to the way people feel about Lenore

fax Isaac is amazing

Me too. It's really enlightening

isaac may be the best character in the show, hands down. honestly i’d say it rivals even zuko, tho nothing beats daddy zuko

It wouldn't help anyways Hector and Issac are nothing like their game counter parts and are better for it in my opinion and carmilla almost never has story relevance and is mostly just a boss to beat up

@@rossman8919 but she was a interesting antagonist was she?

@@itsblitz4437 in games she was here to getting beat up In games Hector Was a goddamn great character

@@azizkalb8721 Hector was a good character in the games?

@@itsblitz4437 yes

It is like 2 stories simultaneously Season 1-2 is dracula’s group vs hero trio so two plots Season 3 is 4 plots 1Alucard, 2trevor-sypha-germane 3hector-vampire quartet 4isaac

the “what the fuck just happened” was so iconic ^^

"Where did you land the castle Sypha?" D: "Right on top of us!" ^.^

I think the writers perhaps made a mistake in referring to the thing that drove Carmilla and Dracula as vampirism. It wasn't vampirism per se that motivated Carmilla and Dracula, it was how they never processed their trauma and instead lashed out with a bottomless pit of vengeance in which they could never be satisfied. This plagued both Isaac and Hector, because they were both driven by revenge against humanity to commit mass murder and genocide. But we saw how Isaac and Hector with a little TLC and perspective rose past their vengeance such that Isaac's goal was no longer to avenge Dracula, but to build a better world, while Hector finally learned to answer the question "What do you want?" The reason I couldn't get Lenore's death was because for 200 years of vampirism she handled it pretty well, and there were no indications that she was becoming more like Carmilla. In fact, she's far better than most of the named humans in the actual show, and even though she had a troubled past, she never dwelled on it like Dracula/Carmilla did.

@@Suijen86 I think the point with her and Hector's talk at the end was that since they live so long eventually vampire just keep wanting more and more and are never really satisfied, which leads to a ton of senseless death and destruction

@@mikemorro140 It was Carmilla and Dracula's focus on the past that drove their actions

@@Suijen86 But I think the point was they have to live with that past longer and thus gain more and more trauma over the years, the problem with Camilla wasn't that it happened to her once, it was constantly having to deal with evil old men as she puts it. That was also Lenore's point about vampires wanting comfort because humans will only live a couple decades and then they'll die so there's only so much they'll go through, vampire on the other hand tend to have to go through and live with the suffering they experience for significantly longer.

@@mikemorro140 I think it's how they process the past and if they're willing to let go of it. 1. Dracula didn't, gets vengeful 2. Carmilla didn't, gets vengeful 3. Isaac ditto for a while 4. Hector ditto 5. Morana, lived for thousands of years, still okay 6. Striga, let go of the past 7. Lenore, ditto I can see where you are coming from though as Lenore feared she would become a Carmilla.

Season 3 was somewhat of a interesting interlude.

@@itsblitz4437 I still think that season 4 being the last was a decision they made after finishing 3, because 3 set up too much than what could've been reasonably resolved in a single season, imo. The most obvious being how Alucard doesn't reunite with Trevor and Sypha until WAYYYYYYYY late in the season, in a way that didn't feel intentional at all.

Season 3 is my personal favorite in the series, but I can see why some people would disagree. The way I see it, season 3 appeals to a different audience than seasons 1 & 2; the shift in writing probably caught many people by surprise. The first 2 seasons introduce strong motivations for the characters, include good witty dialogue, and establish stakes for the world if the protagonists fail. It has good writing/storytelling, but the genre falls under more of an action/adventure. Season 3 on the other hand focuses more on exploring character dynamics and themes. For example, Sypha is introduced to us as an optimist who believes in helping people. Meanwhile Trevor is a pessimist who thinks humanity deserves to bask in its own filth. The plot line of the village itself is overall inconsequential, Trevor and Sypha couldn’t save anyone despite their efforts, but it is through this failure that Sypha learns to understand Trevor’s view on the world more clearly: you can’t trust everyone, you can’t save everyone, and being a “hero” isn’t as exciting as fairytales make it out to be. There is still some action in the show, but it takes a backseat so that the characters themselves can have a bit more of an interpersonal spotlight. Season 3 definitely appeals to a different taste than the first 2 so it’s hard to blame people for not liking it, but I personally believe that the writers did a very good job with it.

@@seansaechao1798 that's a very sound and spirited defense

@@seansaechao1798 I really liked Trevor’s final line to Sypha: “We’ve spent a couple months living your life: adventures and victories. And now we’re living my life.”

"Let me....Kiss you..." *Nom Nom Nom*

every time i think of joss whedon i try to explode him with my mind

Dhampyr's are still weak to flowing water

RWBY wishes it could be this good

@@jamesvanitas to be fair, iv never played or watched this xd, I just liked this video and Thomas in general xd

@@Rawwrrrrrrrrrrrr Castlevania is a really good show. It actually has a very well earned happy ending.

Is this even comparable?

OMG you are so me 😂

I Still upset on how try make boi hector who basically hero who want revenge of his love his to goddamn slave Just look at game hector And look at anime hector

@@azizkalb8721 okay I'll look into that....

And when she was preggers, the fires of hell would not be hot enough compared to her wrath. Imagine if she was that way in the fight against Dracula. Dracula would be hiding behind Alucard and asking him to tell her to calm down.

@@LunaP1 Or maybe Dracula would like a challenging opponent to keep him motivated about something. Or maybe he use her sudden Overpowered-ness as an excuse to lose. Or maybe he would hide behind Alucard. That alternate universe would be funny.

Stuff like what?

@@Dakarai_Knight Mostly just stuff like gruesome violence and the like 🤔

@@jeremy1860 ah I see. Yea this show has a lot of that but that's relatively hard to avoid in media.

Alucard called it "history's longest suicide note" and he's on the dot. Dracula lost something so he wanted the world to lose everything. If I suffer, you suffer.

I think the spin off focuses on one of sypha and Trevor's descendants probably Simon

Which "I am a vampire" speech are you referring to?

@@Suijen86 the one with Varney and the mercenary 🧛‍♂️

Oh my lord imagine her doing a video on arcane. Thats gonna be another get the tissues moment.

@@BambiLena666 hell yeah!

Lenore as a GOT character? You mean a Margaery Tyrell, a person who is charming, compassionate, charismatic, manipulative, and can wrap a manchild around her fingers in 6 seconds flat?

@@Suijen86 ……..Yeah pretty much.

Also, you should check out the game series if you have a chance! Symphony of the night and aria of sorrow are good starting point

Lord of darkness ?

28:32 yeah that armor is badass !

I would say it worked well, it was just a never ending tragedy for all them, even Dracula.

… but isn’t Castlevania’s ending supposed to be “bitter sweet”? Like it’s a sweet ending but it always ends up tasting bitter after awhile _Serenade under the Moonlight_ (HoD, RoB, SOtN) ____________________ In Harmony of Dissonances, Juste have to live on with either not being able to save his friends or Juste having guilt for letting this happened to Maxim and just _pretends it never happened,_ in Rondo of Blood, either Richter lives in sadness for _failing to save Annette…_ or contemplate if he really defeated Dracula, Symphony of the Night, each character have to go on with their respective sins, Alucard is the murder of his father and the wants to keep his promise, Maria is _nothing actually_ and Richter is his failures to fight against temptation of another good fight _The Demon Castle War Legacy_ (OoE, PoR, AoS, DoS) ____________________ In Order of Ecclesia, Shanoa ends with her losing _EVERYTHING,_ her brother, her master, her home, most of her memory and emotions… _but she killed Dracula, her task_ and made ally with the village but… In Portrait of Ruin, the Lecarde family has to dealt with the trauma of a lost father and being vampires once, and although Jonathan has proven the whip his worth, it’s safe to assume he harbors feelings for the Belmont _in a negative way,_ Aria of Sorrow, Soma… worries about his inner Dracula, he’s Mathias reincarnated _but Dracula is still there_ and Arikado… _the same thing really,_ in Dawn of Sorrow, _it’s still the same thing_ but Arikado fully assure Soma that his current life now is human and he’s that and Julius lamenting his old age… _IN THE NOVEL HOWEVER,_ it is alluding that the darkness inside of him is still strong _(or death is genuinely loyal to him, you choose)_ No matter their suffering, never ending tragedy and trauma… in one game, they all have to live on with nearly no good endings, Dracula suffered the most, _the lost of Lisa driven him mad,_ his constant death, revival and influenced by all sorts of _cult, evil people and hell itself_ have made him into a shell of the _former man he was_ and now… he desires redemption _and Soma is his last chance,_ these characters doesn’t get any happy ending, just that they killed Dracula and that’s that Hell, in Curse of Darkness, Trevor got a good ending in 3 but in this game? He got shanked and nearly left for dead, Hector lost his home, _probably hunted by said village under suspicion of being a night creature_ (he is married to Rosaly afterall which is “hanging” around) and Isaac _is dead_

For sure, some of the pacing issues were really there and S4 was kind of bonkers.

It does feel like there was unexplored potential left, yes. But in general I think the show wrapped up very nicely.

And Hector looked back at her, who was his light during his time in Styria. Imagine what they could have had if they had met in any other circumstance.

It would be a far better film series. S3 was well-balanced and gave plenty of attention to the characters, so much so that they wasted Alucard's entire S3. S4 was the same characters, but added in a bunch of new pointless ones. Get rid of the pointless ones, and just focus on the great characters we introduced in S3, and just have all arcs intervene together to final send-off that will really challenge the characters.

They are making a spin off and it seems like they want to make more anthology series like it, so there are things to look forward to.

Richter is mostly likely is protagonist

In the show? He and Hector both loved Dracula's intellect but I'm not sure it was romantic. Isaac confesses his love towards his master who abused him for it but I'm not sure if it was romantic love or just some other kind of love.
