Great that it will be fitted with feminist propaganda and look as cheaply animated that it belongs on netflix, then sure.

>>15659645

There is a lot negative I can say on Netflix castlevania, but the animation was not one of them.

>Will it be as great as castlevania?

If by great you mean shit, then yes.

>>15659645

>/v/ Will it be as great as castlevania?

In other words, terrible.

>>15659678

Would you pozz Young Link

This is going to be so hilariously terrible it might actually beat out the CDi games in quotability.

>>15659645

The Castlevania anime was garbage. Bad taste.

>>15659645

>Netflix Castlevania

>Good

>>15659645

>Netflix

It’s instantly ruined and jewish propaganda.

I feel nothing but rage after hearing this announcement.

>>15659682

>>15659676

>>15659672

>>15659667

>>15659729

Is the Castlevania animation really that bad? It seems like normalniggers loved it, and it looked interesting (seeing no more than a couple scenes). Is it not worth the watch?

>>15659814

Animation wise it's pretty great and storywise it's lackluster, it could be better but it could have been much worse.

>>15659814

It's fucking netflix, what more needs to be said? Up it's own ass but otherwise the definition of ehh. It's same fake anime shit you see fucking everywhere now to the point I think machines make it.

>>15659822

Fair enough

>>15659827

I haven't watched netflix-anything in years, I just assume SOMETHING good needs to sneak by the kikes every once in a while.

>>15659684

Hyrule needs to take in thousands of rapefugee Gerudo and Garo. Initially opposed to it, after seeing firsthand the worsening drought in the desert, Link and Zelda come around to the idea that their country needs to end the hate. Link gains the Triforce of Courage for speaking up for the noble desert peoples and helping to change the intolerant views of his kind. Series ends on a "this is fine" note as Ganondorf usurps the throne, the Gerudo behead and cart-of-peace the hylians, the Garo suicide bomb the shit out of whoever looks at them funny, and no one opposes them anymore because it would be racist

>>15659835

I hope you never make that mistake again.

>>15659645

>/v/ Will it be as great as castlevania?

But I hate that show. I am admittedly a giant snob about Castlevania though.

>>15659814

Of course normalniggers loved it, they don't know anything about Castlevania.

>>15659684

>Zelda is a strong independent princess who don't need no rescuing

>>15659839

>Zelda becomes the strong independent female protagonist who don't need no man

And has a lesbo relationship with Malon, who along with her family are now niggers for some reason.

>>15659873

It's funny since Castlevania was always a pro-christianity game.

>>15659882

Even if it wasn't it makes no sense in a vacuum. How can a guy killing mythological beings with sanctified weaponry ever be antitheist? Well, someone at Netflix sure thinks it can.

>>15659889

It's fucking Netflix, they're too focused on being WOKE than making a fun product.

>>15659814

The story is based on Castlevania III, which I know nothing about. They also use all this really forgettable temp music rather than, you know, the actual music in the GAMES. The voice acting is also questionable; it's like they're whispering at some points. The animation isn't unbearable, but a lot of anime and The Boondocks do the fighting scenes much better.

>>15659767

House of Cards was pretty good, tbh.

>>15659645

I'm hoping Nintendo takes one look at the poz and tells them to fuck off.

I didnt think That there could be a blight worse on zelda history then cdi phillips but boy howdy. the king will unironically be a better character then whatever netflix shats out.

>>15659923

Cry more faggot.

>>15659684

Snaggletooth, Link's friends are non-white, the citizens of Hyrule are goblina's and goblino mullattos and brown. Curveball, Link is adopted by a wealthy black family. He visits a town far away which is homogeneous, in the non-white way, and is a thriving center free of any evils Hyrule had.

>>15659851

>>15659873

>>15659897

>>15659906

You anons convinced me not to even give this a shot. I can deal with shoddy animation, but especially the "comic book evil or good" sounds like absolutely basic-bitch-boring tier. That and the "anti-Christian" cliche just gets old. We have all seen a million times how the church is a generic egoist blah blah blah. I don't care you fucking normalnigger NPC "writers". PASS.

>>15659923

Religion is the outward facade so normalniggers can wrap their mind around big boy abstract thoughts. The rules are for plebs.

>>15659949

The most unforgivable part of it is that Alucard didn't show up to his mother's execution.

>>15659974

First off, fuck Neon Genesis Evangelion. The whole anime is a facade to conceal that there is no inner truth to what it says. That shit is like a Jackson Pollock painting: throw a bunch of shit at the wall, until it seems like it works together, and journo-plebs will find "meaning" in its "art". When I first watched NGE, I thought it was interesting that they had symbolism for the tree of life and what not, so I looked up why they put it in there, and the answer was essentially, "It's foreign and mysterious," that should sum up the entirety of that shitty anime right there. And Shinji is a bitch faggot who needs to stop being a faglord.

Its the same guy that called the stupid ass "controversy" about Apu and caused him to get written out of the show. Although it being 2018 simpsons, that's more of a mercy killing than anything. Either way guy is far up his asshole to make anything decent.

>>15660012

That was actually yet another case of a street shitter lying and people being too scared to call his bluff for fear of racism accusations. He isn't leaving the show and his only proof that is was happen was hearsay.

>>15660001

He didn't know it was happening obviously.

>>15660036

Showing up to it was one of the most critical parts in the history of Castlevania you colossal fuckoid.

Adi Shankar is the curry nigger that started the rumor that Apu was being removed from the Simpson's.

>>15659672

It should be, because the animation was pretty choppy outside of fight scenes

>>15660002

I seem to be one of the few who actually liked Shinji's character. He acted just like a teenage boy should. Fuck all of the people around him. His father abandoned him and even when they reunited he wanted his son to risk his life for him. Rei is emotionless and has a bad case of abusive boyfriend syndrome. Asuka has mommy issues and pushes away everyone near her and not to mention she's way too quick to 'explore' and had no problem with just kissing a random kid she hasn't known for too long just because it'll be fun. Also she was head-over-heels for that manwhore who lured Misato like the whore she is, endangering herself and her employer (and thus the world) all for some guy who looks good in a leather jacket. The blonde chick with the mole is a terribly vain cat lady, and his friends consist of one strangely likeable perverted brat who cares for his younger ill sister and a war geek who doesn't seem to backup Shinji when he needs it. The only truly likeable character in the entire show is the one student's crush who acts like a good housewife and is smart.

>>15659873

>Every single clergyman in the series

Very slight correction: only most of them are evil mustache twirlers. There's a few in the last ep of s1 that actually help out fighting the demons and do what Trevor tells them to. It doesn't really change how evil the church is depicted, but it doesn't hurt to keep your facts straight.

I was hoping Nintendo could make their own in house studio or at least a studio in Japan for animation instead of contracting (((Hollywood))) again. Fuck this Netflix talk is a mistake.

>>15660091

>He acted just like a teenage boy should.

We know, that's why he's shit.

>>15660099

Say what you will, I just think he was surrounded by madness and his behavior was completely justified.

>>15660130

They were entirely different clergymen than the ones that formed the mob, though.

>>15660184

Yeah, kikes just hate nihilistic deconstructions of things.

>>15660242

Silly anon, religion must be always portrayed negatively in the current year. If it has any purpose in the setting that can't be completely discarded, it has to be shown as corrupted.

Lords of Shadow is a better Castlevania experience than this Netflix tripe, let that sink in.

>>15660184

>>15660290

No, seriously, fuck off.

>>15659645

Adi Shankar was the faggot that tried to say the Simposons was removing Apu, right?

>>15660326

Yes.

>>15660283

You know that princess who need no man. She's the mortal incarnation of a GODDESS. Fucking anti-theists can't into source material.

>>15660290

How many episodes of Rick and Morty do I need to watch to raise my IQ high enough to understand the show's complex plot? But seriously I should watch that show again. It's been decades since I last saw it. At least it's not as clusterfuck as FLCL's deepest lore.

>>15660392

There's a lot of reasons I can think of why they would source a deal out with the Castelvania guys.

>>15660392

Friendly reminder the live action monster hunter movie will be set in modern times

>>15660431

>They'll keep Zelda white

>Make Ganon Trump

The writing is on the wall.

>>15660406

>Set in modern times.

Pretty sure that I read somewhere that the setting is in MonHun World. Its just that a bunch of soldiers get isekai'd to it.

Granted though, it would still be shit either way.

I mean there's no way it could be worse than HIGH GUARDIAN SPICE

>>15660472

First movie (it's already part of a trilogy/expanded cinematic universe) is the soldiers go the MonHun world and hun mons, then at the end of the movie the "big twist" is they bring the mons back to the real world.

Can't wait to see how fucking bad it is.

They should let Jaden Smith write this one too. At least Neo Yokio was stupid enough to be anti-good.

BTW the 80s cartoon is actually pretty decent, considering it was a fucking 80s cartoon, and fairly faithful to the source material.

>>15660506

Humanity is capable of great evil.

That episode you highlighted is no more significant than Tamerlane raising pyramids of skulls on the steppes or the Mongols running a river of blood through the streets of Bagdad. This Castlevania thing is obviously the work of a faggot (Warren Ellis) pushing an agenda, and that’s what chaps people’s asses more than the Anti-Christian messages.

>>15660506

>A single Duke is the church

>>15660290

Fuck off you retarded faggot. If you want to watch something of real substance, go watch Legened of the Galactic Heroes instead of this waifu-fuelled pretentious garbage.

>>15660576

>spoiler

Yeah, that's a character arc. Nobody in NGE really has a character arc, besides Katsuragi sort of. The original actually ran out of budget so half the final episode is just literal pageflipping of shinji falling in water.

>>15660584

Shinji's character arc starts with him regressing as it goes on until he realizes he needs other people and it ends in the movie. His outright rejection and reappearance on the beach at the end is the whole point.

>>15660591

Is that really an arc? It sounds more like half an arc or the middle of an arc. Also, that kind of arc doesn't work unless it's purely a character drama, which NGE isn't. I never watched the movie so I have no idea if it's good or bad, but the original anime is objectively bad.

>>15660620

>Is that really an arc?

Yes it is, negative character development is still character development and the whole point of Sinji is his emasculation and inability to escape himself. His arc ends proper in the movie since it carries on with all the weirdness from those last episodes by showing Sinji's Instrumentality rejection via a debate with Rei, Sinji realizes he wants people to exist because he doesn't want to be alone even if it hurts him and basically accepting that.

>>15660659

I guess it comes down to subjectivity then.

>>15660506

Apologizing is not evil.

>>15660091

I don't get it either, I liked his character for who he was and how he actually felt realistic. Almost as if the show was built upon less action and more psychological themes.

Here's the thing: Zelda is already really feminist, but not in a bad way (I'm sure feminazis will fuck it up)

The most powerful characters are usually women

the world was created by goddesses

the main men of the series either are the antagonists or servants to the women

I mean, just look at hyrule warriors. Look at how it's like 75% female characters, because all the men are random npcs, the main bad guys, or joke characters.

>>15661211

>Embed

Naruke did a really nice job on that arrangement. Do hope she's got one more, comfier arrangement for Ultimate than just them porting Bramble Blast forward again (which don't get me wrong, is a good song).

>the netflix version doesn't have the music

I saw a soundtrack at a store recently. First got interested thinking it was one for the games (same place also has an OST right now for Siren 2), but no.

>>15661211

It only has a Bloody Tears remix for a single fight near the very end of the second season, and Bloody Tears was not even in 3 which the cartoon is based on.

>>15661211

>the netflix version doesn't have the music

Except for it fucking did. I definitely heard Bloody tears during one battle

>>15661231

One song for one fight in one episode hardly counts.

>>15661211

Why would you want twittershitters and tumblrinas to have yet another reason to pretend to like this tripe?

>>15660002

NGE is actually very good. contrary to your assertion, it does have a plot and underlying themes, rather than just being abstract art.

one of the most prominent themes for example is how people feel very lonely when they are not receiving attention from other, but then when they do, they often respond badly to the attention because it wasn't what they expected. it's basically about not understanding love and society and wanting them anyway, and then being crushed when it becomes clear you don't have the underlying emotional skills to experience those things,even if they were thrown at you.

another theme is the circumstanciality of human life, that is: if people were only born if they CHOSE to be, would they actually choose to be alive? it makes the observation that while not exactly suicidal, many people only continue to live out of habit or cowardice and don't really WANT to live. they lack the "will to power" to continue to exist and see life implicitly as something thrust on them by circumstance rather than something they actively desire or see purpose in.

another theme isgoodrobot battles and hot sluts, so.

basically what's your problem

>>15659645

Dumb idea. It can't work outside of video games and whats the fucking point anyway more people play games than watch TV or movies now. It will just come across as dumbed down trash.

>>15661418

>That "scientific advancement" graph

>What started this trend of having complete fucking morons latch onto scientific/engineering topics like it's a fashion statement for hip enlightened faggots like themselves?

>>15659645

My general rule of thumb is to never expect anything out of a production like this. For years now, video game and comic book adaptations have been mishandled and Hollywood/filmmakers have generally produced garbage when they get a hold of popular IPs. I'll probably still watch it, though, just to see if it's any good or not. I've got nothing to lose by watching an episode or two.

>>15659814

+Good fight scenes

+Little to no filler or exposition, beyond the plot's basic premise

+Manages to not totally fuck up the game's universe/lore, although there are inconsistencies which make this adaptation feel like it's "loosely based" on Castelvania as a whole. This seems to be the case

-Cheesy dialogue; Cipher, Trevor and Alucard have a modern vernacular and banter that's reminiscent of a group of teenagers who're going through puberty. Despite this, they curse often and the show utilizes some adult themes, so there are some mixed signals on who exactly this product was made for

-Terrible voice acting; There's a vampire named Godbrand who sounds like he can hardly speak english; his intonation is off and he stumbles through sentences, which is enough to make scenes that involve him jarring.

-Despite that the fight scenes are mostly well done, the animation seems off somehow. It reeks of cut corners and as a result it comes across as artificial. The background art is pretty good, though.

All in all I'd give it a 7/10. It's not as horrible as people make it out to be, and it's not God's gift to video game adaptations, either.

Just make everyone a nigger, Netflix

Oh boy I hope it's R rated as fuck!

that's sarcasm for all you autist

And if you're thinking of watching any of the original cartoon series. Be sure to switch the order in which you watch the 12th and 13th episode( i.e. watch the 13th in place of the 12th and vise versa). The 12th is the one completed last in the production order and very obviously supposed to be a kind of season finale. But like all kinds of other strange decisions made about this show. They decided to end it all completely anticlimactically (as much as this show could have a climax) with some random episode they made before hand that has almost no finality to it at all. This becomes even more stupid when you see that they played all the other episodes in the order in which they were originally completed and for no reason just decided to switch up the last two.

>>15665060

There are also some crossover episodes with Captain N and the SMB3 cartoon too.

>>15659672

Then you shouldn't say much at all. Even the Sakuga was 12fps

Compare any late season climactic sequence to an average japan episode (aot, opm, pm100) and you'll see

>>15665209

No riding pants. No fap.

>>15665060

Nintendo will not allow the show to be R rated. I don't think they'll let it be rated PG-13 if they had their way.

My rage induced gaming binge is over. Okay, what would I do if I was behind a Legend of Zelda animated series? Well for starters I would treat the series as it's own legend non-canon to the games. If anything I would reference the games as legends passed down in this variant of Hyrule. After all, I AM HERE TO MAKE A GOOD ANIMATED CARTOON. I WILL NOT MAKE THE BEST VIDEO GAME ADAPTATION EVER BECAUSE THE BAR IS TOO DAMN LOW.

Clearly we're going to need our own variants of the hero, the princess, and the pig demon. Link will speak. Otherwise he will be boring. However Link's speech will be used as a tool like his items in the game to help him solve problems. Zelda will be a more casual extension of her BotW incarnation, a princess who is a scholar by hobby. Zelda does not get out much. So naturally her hobbies turn to what's inside the castle library and museum. Many of the games' history will be mentioned by Zelda as Link is the bastard of a dead regal knight and a noble rogue who lost everything. And fuck it, Link's going to have an ex-thief MILF for a mom because Zelda is about the journey. And on the journey you need to have interesting side characters.

I literally cringed when I read that one producer wants to make a live action Zelda a "Game of Thrones." I disagree. I think Avatar the Last Airbender is a better template of you cut the filler. If I want live action anything it's Starfox with Muppets and practical effects.

>>15665133

I tried watching those awhile go and could barely even get through one episode. Holy shit, people say the Zelda cartoon is bad. But it at least has some charm. Captain N is just like "wow, this isn't very good is it?".

>>15665886

I like the idea of Captain N, of a hodgepodge of Nintendo ideas and characters all thrown in together with all their worlds colliding.

The execution was not great though, I think the idea was too grand for the budget. All those worlds and potential plots and a shoestring budget for what was, at the time, a scrappy US division for a Japanese toy manufacturer just getting its feet wet in the console industry.

Cinematic Universes are all the rage these days, so a "Captain N" that works as an "Avengers" thing that ties all Nintendo's (and popular third parties too) properties into one big video game orgy could be good, but this is CY+3 so it would be absolutely riddled with gay nigger AIDS.

>>15666494

The shitty budget was the only thing keeping it from being a completely unlikable circlejerk.

>gerudo removed because "middle east in a tolkien setting doesnt make sense"

>>15666753

No no, Gerudo will be the dindu gudbois, oppressed sand people and the white Hylians will be problematic shitlords for wanting their own country. Ganondorf will still be a villain but he will be using the innocent Gerudo because he's secretly a white male who uses sorcery to disguise himself as the leader of the Gerudo following a coup.

Zelda will be super powerful and capable of solving everything herself, and Link will be along for comic relief. When he does fight and win it will inevitably be bad because he was fighting against the dindus and fell for 'dorf's "invasion plot" and so now the people hate him and Zelda has to save him from an angry mob.

The kokiri children will be in the show and they will be sexualised, because it's jewflix, and sexualising kids is their business model (that and money laundering).

Gorons will be nigger mystery meat, taking vibes from non-specific island tribal culture, instead of the problematic Japanese sumo roots they've had in previous games.

Sheikah will be the "chosen people", poor innocent victims of previous holocausts, and now they're trying to save these poor dindu Gerudo refugees from the same fate, because they're really good guys, honest.

Screencap this, because I'm right.

A new Zelda cartoon, ESPECIALLY Western-produced, seems unlikely. Zelda is still one of Nintendo's biggest franchises, and the big N is notoriously controlling when it comes to their properties. (Even Disney commented that Nintendo were overbearing when it came to Bowser's tiny cameo in Wreck-It Ralph, nitpicking every little detail from his exact size to how he holds his teacup.)

Plus, it turns out that all Shankar actually said was that he was in talks with an iconic Japanese publisher to do another videogame cartoon. The rest is complete speculation by the article's writer (which then got picked up by everywhere else as news that he's definitely making a Zelda cartoon).

This bit of fake news might work in his favour and generate goodwill toward him, as when he announces what game he's REALLY making into a cartoon, everyone will breathe a sigh of relief.

Unless it's Metroid. Crap, it might be Metroid.

I think the implication was that some of the clergy who were of genuine good heart as they were still able to properly bless water. Between Richter being shocked they could actually do it, and the demons implying they wouldn't have been able to enter a church if it were truly holy, it would seem that blessing stuff can be turned off. So one can reason at least a few dudes were in the church to be cool guys and not playing for power.

>/v/ Will it be as great as castlevania?

Its not like that "critical scene of SotN" is critical for castlevania as a whole and what kickstarted the events of 3, nor like the protagonist of curse of darkness is one of dracula's goons by that point in the story.

Plus, it's just bad and lazy storywriting.

>>15677003

I never said you can't do it, I just said it's poz. That was obviously the motivation of faggot netcucks writers behind the show. I wouldn't even mind it if it was done more intelligently, but please spaz more about muh ebil church

>>15677022

Whatever you think of it, the church thing is just a small part of the overall pozzing of the show, and even smaller part of why it's bad.

GITS movie actually wasn't that bad though. it was clearly a standalone take on the IP but it kinda got the atmosphere of it and it's better that way anyway. I sure as hell don't wanna leave it up to hollywood to mess with the canon material.

>Any chance you've got the Samus episodes on-hand too?

I swear I watched it but everyone tells me it is a myth. It was certainly not included in the dvd set. There are two more eps with link and zelda but i have not had a chance to rip them yet.

>>15678497

From (((wikipedia))):

>The Captain N comic book was published by Valiant Comics as part of the Nintendo Comics System in 1990. Despite being based on the television cartoon of the same name, it was actually quite different from the show. The comics had a more serious tone than the cartoon. Additionally, all third-party characters (Simon Belmont, Mega Man, Dr. Wright, the Count, and Dr. Wily) were not in the comic. Samus Aran, who never appeared in the cartoon, was a recurring of the stories who falls in love with Kevin, and becomes Lana's rival for his affections. When asked by a fan why Samus did not appear in the television series, Jeffrey Scott said "Never heard of her. That could be why."

Was he whining fuck that stands aside and watched vampire kill humans? Or a man who was disgusted by the atrocities Dracula was committing.

We may get more fappable Zelda characters out of this- bar that, a new link, and bar that, just zelda.

The best we can pray for is a flavour of the month fapbait character out of this.

So we're gonna get a black Zelda who saves Link.

If it's based on classic Zelda, maybe. If it's all BOTW Nu-Link shit it will be garbage.

I always thought it was really weird that the evil church in the story was pretty much the catholic church in everything but name…

…but wallachia has been orthodox since forever. When the Bishop vows to 'becoe the church' it doesnt really make a whole lot of sense, considering at the time the beat he could do, was maybe become one of the pentarchs.

Animations are not games, faggot. You can't tell it's quality by framerate but rather fluidity. There are techniques that go around low fps in classic animation. Not talking about Castlevania specifically, though, it WAS choppy, but it didn't need to.

>>15659873

I'm conflicted about it. It is definitely stupid to deny God when his tools CLEARLY WORK. However i do like the attitude when he said God was shitting on his day given that besides the blessings he still has to do all the dirty work himself

>>15695111

It's not so much denying god as it is denying the church, with good reason

An example of a series that goes hard on both is Berserk, which is universally loved, so I'm not sure what people are getting their panties in a twist over

>>15694740

15-20 is actually high for animation, you're thinking 3-4 fps (which some of the scenes were)

I finally got around to pirating the second season. While far from good, it wasn't nearly as shitty as it could've been. If anything, it seemed like a deconstruction of feminism. Everything was going great for Dracula until they let a feminist in and as soon they cowed to feminism everything went sour. Hector ended up as a fucking pet.

>>15676983

>the Church shown as unilaterally, cartoonishly evil

The church pretty much was cartoonishly evil in it's persecution of "heresy". Historical fact. Have you seen the torture devices the inquisitors used to use?

>Women are Mary-Sues, especially Sypha. Muh female empowerment.

Sypha was OP, but she was not a Mary Sue by any stretch of the imagination. When the monsters were attacking, she couldn't complete the spell for binding castlevania in one second, fix the mirror herself, and wipe out the monsters without breaking a sweat, like she would have if the same kikes that wrote nu star wars did Castlevania. Instead, she had to focus all of her energy on completing the spell, rely on Alucard to fuck with the mirror, and Trevor to fight the monsters. Also, when they faced Dracula, Sypha got thrashed. If she was a Mary Sue she would've killed Dracula herself after Trevor and Alucard proved ineffective and useless, to show how a real Feminist womyn don't need no man. Instead, she relied on men throughout.

>Feminist vampire complaining about the vampire patriarchy is also a strong independent womyn

Carmilla was depicted as an evil treacherous snake-like feminist witch, and not at all portrayed in a sympathetic light. They set her up to be the main villain for the rest of the series if they continue it. The moral of the story seemed to be if you ever listen to a feminist, you shoot yourself in the foot.

>Forced diversity - Dracula invites some nonwhite foreign vampires who don't fit into the story at all - most of them don't even have a single line of dialogue (KEK), they're just there to represent diversity

That forced diversity among the vampires and enemies is hilarious, because there was no diversity among the heroes. They were all Whites. So in episode 6 it ended up looking like a Aryan brotherhood death squad had come to purge diversity and (((white))) allies.

It seems the worst they did was to replace a tranny looking faggot with a random nigger, and portray that nigger in a positive light as a noble, and loyal man. If they wanted to go full pozz, they would've made Trevor, Sypha, and the Wallachians Black, and made Dracula and his vampires out to be nazis. They coudl have had a good sympathetic feminist Carmilla betray nazi Dracula to come the aid of heroic people of color struggling against white supremacy. Instead, the heroes are white and Carmilla is an evil feminazi witch.

Thank you for uploading these, anon. I never actually watched the Zelda cartoon and I have to admit I find it more enjoyable than it should be. I have a feeling this show was made by people who genuinely cared about the source material, however little of it there is in the first place.

The show's badness has been over exaggerated by the internet. Yes, it has nothing on great shows like Avatar: The Last Airbender, the action is pretty stiff and there is just too many convenient things happening. But for what it is, an 80s cartoon for children to promote a video game, it's pretty good. If I was 8 years old I would have really liked it.

What I like is that Link is actually a hero in this show. It the Japanese were to make an anime in the $CURRENT_YEAR he would be a faggy fairy-boy, and if someone were to make a western cartoon he would be a literal cuck like Finn from Adventure Time. He constantly wants to get a kiss from Zelda, but he isn't just some thirsty beta cuck, Zelda actually wants it as well, but just when he's about to score something ends up getting in the way. That's actually funny, and not cringy like the usual "he wants her, but she doesn't want him" shit. The show also made Zelda competent without reducing every male character to a bumbling idiot. I cannot count anymore how often it happens that when the writer want to make the girl stand out the only way they know how to do it is by making every male character a complete idiot.

The show is quite accurate to the games. The have the same sound effects, melodies, Link's items, they even have the silly enemy names. Link's sword shoots lasers just like in the game as well. This also allows the show to work around the silly 80s censorship, no one fires real arrows and no one gets stabbed with a sword, they always get "zapped" and monsters don't die, they respawn. Another thing I noticed, Zelda fires light arrows with her bow frequently at Ganon, long before this happened in any of the games. Do you think Nintendo got this idea from the show?

>>15722124

>He constantly wants to get a kiss from Zelda

It helps that it's not done in an obsessive manner either. I remember one episode where some knight guy comes to try and court Zelda and it pisses Link off not because he's getting his girl but because he thinks he's better than him.

lmao wasnt one of the producers of castlevania the paki who fraudulently claimed the simpsons was killing off apu to placate that corpulent paki ape

>>15722154

> It helps that it's not done in an obsessive manner either. I remember one episode where some knight guy comes to try and court Zelda and it pisses Link off not because he's getting his girl but because he thinks he's better than him.

Right. A thirsty beta would be someone like Fry from Futurama, Leela originally doesn't see anything in him, and he keeps making an idiot out of himself all the time.

Link on the other hand is a rogue, he even mentions on occasion that he used to wander around and isn't used to living in a castle. He keeps hitting on Zelda because he knows she wants it, but she's not going to put out without effort on his side. That's what makes it comedic rather than pathetic like Fry's efforts.

I love the scene from >>15661762 where Link wants to swing into Zelda's room and the king catches him and asks Link what he is up to. Link just just blatantly tells the king what he wants to do, and the king, the absolute madman, actually gives Link the advice to bring flowers with. And it actually works! When Link crashes into the room Zelda is about to kiss him, only for Ganon to interrupt them yet again.

>>15668271

>I think the implication was that some of the clergy who were of genuine good heart as they were still able to properly bless water.

Season 2 had a zombie bishop (the same bishop that killed Lisa) bless the entire river of a town so making holy water has nothing to do with being good.

>>15725352

>>15725322

Yes, it makes "holy" really just another element like fire or lightning.

>>15725371

I'm aware that it is more in line with the game but it makes that priest making holy water defense void.

>>15682050

I almost forgot about this.

Remember to report and filter religious D&C, especially one that is necrobumping a weeks old thread.

<Sypha Belnades was rewritten as a satanist group member persecuted by the church

<"too pure for this world", gets saved by dracula

<Isaac gets teleported to Africa to meet European slavers in the desert

<Carmilla is a misunderstood feminist

<has incredibly stupid plans

<Alucard has daddy issues

<spend more time setting up this bull than the actual story or replicating the source material

I'm not even a christian to moralfag about it, but there's some sheer hilarity in how far it takes a pro-religion series (so much Nintendo made exceptions for it in the censorship department) to soapbox the polar opposite so obviously even I noticed it.

I mean even if you wanted to take that angle, the source material has so much to work with: the corrupt Ecclesia hungry for power, the catholic church that banished the Belmonts then went out of their way to recruit them years later, the origin story in lament of innocence with the crusades veterans who are then disillusioned with the church, conflicted heroes between their beliefs and beloved ones claimed by dracula, the human attacks on dracula's castle led by the church as human fodder…

Were you a militant atheist who just can't help save the sheeple from religion soapboxing about it whenever wherever you can, you COULD still do better subverting the series with what you already have.

Zelda is another pro-religion series (you even do actual shinto rituals, prayers and offerings in the latest one, and A Link Between Worlds directly says the dark wold ends up the way it is in part because they abandoned religion, and all of them even the main cast alter-egos are bad flawed people except for the priest in hiding, the triforce thing, hylia = Amaterasu down to the slumber in the cave and the imagery… ) but not as much on the nose as Castlevania which has "crosses and holy water good, defeat evil who hate church and corrupt people" and since it's more removed from western beliefs it's less apparently religious. But here's the thing, Miyamoto said in old interviews he is religious and his religious beliefs influence his games already, so the intent is there.

For all the "non-conformism" perceived in japanese games religiously speaking it's in line with what's acceptable for them.

Makes perfect sense why Netflix wants to "deconstruct" it next.

>>15731354

<Sypha Belnades was rewritten as a satanist

What

<Isaac became gay

<Turned edgy BDSM theme into an edgy actual character trait

These two things are at odds

Isaac's original design is the faggiest thing I've ever seen, and unlike a character like Voldo it's not over the top enough to be creepy

<Isaac gets teleported to Africa to meet European slavers in the desert

Which is cringe, but starting his own army with them cements him as an actual villain and not just some poor oppressed negro

<Carmilla is a misunderstood feminist

Which is portrayed as a bad thing, she is explicitly set up as a main villain even less empathetic than Dracula

The show fucks up a lot, but I really don't think this is where

And given that it heavily features holy water, the show is less anti-religion than it is anti-organized religion, though it's fair to call it out for not making enough of a distinction there and focusing only on the negatives

Regardless, I don't think Zelda's in trouble there, fantasy religions are generally safe from even the most strident fedoralords, it's removed enough from what they care about for them to consider it just another quirky fantastical part of the universe instead of something to project their beliefs onto

>>15731354

>Maria

Don't you mean Lisa? I'm pretty sure Lisa was the one that was burned at the stake. Maria was the name of the wife in the Lords of Shadow games, I think. That whole thing pissed me off. Lisa in SotN had potential and made sense for the role of someone who managed to get Dracula to fall in love, and also to not turn her into a vampire. You can't exactly make someone like that a main character, but some family scenes of Dracula, Lisa and Alucard together would do better to make her death, and the reactions to her death, have more impact. That or even make sense. Why the fuck did she have a house in the village if she was married to Dracula and had a fully grown son? Maybe I am misremembering things, but it came off like they were still in the meeting lovers type relationship when she got burned. That and she was pretty bog standard for a western female lead.

>>15732609

>see >>15725352

I don't get what that's supposed to prove

It's holy water, it exists, does what it's purported to do, and it's explicitly stated that only ordained priests can produce it, a rule which is not broken at any point

It's proof that god exists and that at least some part of the church's beliefs are correct, and will continue to be that way until such time as they try to explain it away as just being some ancient latin magic or whatever(and by extension, paint the entire priesthood as just some pagan magical ritual that at some point was absorbed into the church, like christmas was)

>>15732649

>I don't get what that's supposed to prove

1) Adi Shankar is full of shit.

<I admit that Season 1 of Castlevania was unapologetically critical of the Bishop and his henchmen. But they are not the religion’s only representatives. Those of you who have seen Episode 4 know that Trevor Belmont teamed up with a priest who was ordained in a church, and had that priest consecrate holy water for use in the fight against Dracula’s demons. And what’s more—the holy water actually worked. I hardly see that as being anti-Christian or anti-Church.

2) Even the undead can make holy water.

3) You don't have to be a good person, have faith, or be a person (having freewill) to make holy water.

>>15732657

1) You're gonna need to elaborate, because I really don't think this proves what you seem to think it does

2)/3) Yes, and? The bishop was definitely ordained, this is just an interesting application of that logic, and does not break that rule

>>15732753

I really don't know what you meant. Either way I don't think any of the main cast are atheists. Although Sypha views God as evil (to a certain extent at least). I don't think making holy water proves anything just like someone making fire make them pro-science.

>>15732765

>I don't think making holy water proves anything

It's (circumstantial)proof that god exists, and proves that people in the priesthood have actual power bestowed on them that the non-pious don't have

They show that even that can be perverted, just like the church itself, but the fact that it exists in the first place is a very pro-religion thing to have, people are tangibly rewarded for their faith, even if that faith has corrupt foundations

>>15732795

If even a zombie can make holy water, is it really """holy""" water? It's just another element like fire or lightning, something anyone can mix together. It might as well just be magic acid which people misattribute as being holy.

>>15732795

>They show that even that can be perverted, just like the church itself, but the fact that it exists in the first place is a very pro-religion thing to have, people are tangibly rewarded for their faith, even if that faith has corrupt foundations

The show has magic. Is the show suddenly pro-magic?

>>15732841

And yet only priests can make it

Like I said, it could be just regular magic, but the show plays it completely straight and never mentions anything like that, so that'd just an assumption

>>15732850

>The show has magic. Is the show suddenly pro-magic?

This entire argument is over whether the show is anti-religious, based on the sentiments expressed within it. If you think what's in the show doesn't matter, then what the fuck are you even arguing about?

>>15733020

>Like I said, it could be just regular magic, but the show plays it completely straight and never mentions anything like that, so that'd just an assumption

And people assumed that the priest making the holy water in season 1 proof that there were good-hearted people among the church. Also, the salt didn't needed any special blessing. It is most likely just another type of magic.

>This entire argument is over whether the show is anti-religious, based on the sentiments expressed within it.

Most of it negative.

>If you think what's in the show doesn't matter, then what the fuck are you even arguing about?

I doubt that the writers are Christians. In fact, I know that one of them is an atheist (the type that says he disagrees with all religions but enjoys watching other religions giving Christians their comeuppance). Writing a story where crosses kill vampires doesn't mean that you endorse Christianity and they don't have to be. However, it isn't proof that the show is pro-religion and honestly who cares. The big problem is the show spent way too much time trying to paint the villains as sympathetic when it actually makes them worse.

Hector is suppose to be a good guy later. That is because he didn't willingly genocide humans in the game and actively betrays Dracula. In show, he doesn't see why doing so is wrong and regrets betraying Dracula. Isaac is both 2deep4u and 2edgy4u yet he has the audacity to shit on Hector for his "babbling" when Hector's reasoning makes more sense than half the bullshit that he spouts.

>>15731354

>(so much Nintendo made exceptions for it in the censorship department)

Depends on which generations and what degree you mean. Looking at the NES and such, while they at least kept the potentially "offensive" subweapons themselves in the game, they were "officially" the firebomb and boomerang here, not the holy water and cross. GBA and DS though they definitely relented on it, but sixth and seventh gen were a bit more a lax time in general. Still couldn't have lyrics of "Praise the Lord" in the western release of Baten Kaitos Origins, though.

>>15735521

Alright well thanks for answering anyway. I am not mad now.

>>15659814

It's not as terrible as something like Ass Effect I suppose.

Nintendo is pretty good at not censoring usually.

Devil May Cry took the bullet and Zelda is safe from Netflix's pozzed boipussies (for now).

>>15764488

> If anything you should be taking issue with how they portray Trevor Belmont as an edgelord and not a devout man of god

This. Trevor should be a righteous man. Then Grant the edgelord who sometimes has a point. But no Grant.

Since it's Netflix we can rule out the scene Zelda lounges around wearing only her night gown reading books while you look at her pantsu for two and a half minutes.

>>15764488

>Not really, in the fourth episode of the first season it's established pretty strongly that god himself is still on the side of good

see >>15725352

Bugmen think that spending too much time trying to "grey" up the villains is automatically good. Isaac should have Hector(Netflix)'s personality while Hector should be more like his canon counterpart. Now I'm worried that season 3 would be worse.

>>15725352

Wow, I can already tell I'm going to have problems with the second season based on that alone.

>>15659814

The writing is fanfiction tier no joke. Just watch some episodes and the more and more you watch it the more it devolves into a fanfic written by a 16 year old girl.

>>15659822

The computer tracing is "ok" as in it's passable for anime as in it would be passable for a non action oriented anime series. The writing is terrible though. The plot is just "There" as in there is a plot not that it's relevant to any events going on or engaging in the slightest and the character dialogue is pitiful. If the show didn't have the word "Castlevania" on it it wouldn't of been made. Why is it that every single time someone aquires a video game license for an entertainment product they just totally fuck it up? Oh well.

>>15740317

And just think, we’ve got a DMC anime coming from the cuck soon enough

>>15766700

what what what???

>>15659822

also note dialogue and writing is actually better in the castlevania lord of shadows game series.

As a guy who obl6 played a few of the games, not all of them.

I sincerely enjoyed the series.

It was slow and boring at times but the animation and fight scenes were great, voice acting was great, I liked the characters, and I didn't detect any hidden agenda in it.

8/10 would watch again.

>>15659873

>>15764507

>Last I checked, even normalfags are losing interest in (((netflix)))

This is not true in the slightest. Normalfags jumped with joy at a potential DMC netflix series. What makes you suggest netflix hasn't been firmly planted in the mainstream? I see no evidence that it's losing steam.

>>15767890

Normalfags have lost interest but they've moved to Amazon Prime instead.

>>15751698

>Let's blame them for things that happened 20 years ago

Kys.

>>15760381

Is that a castlevania mod for Minecraft? Never played Minecraft, but might as well

>On the other hand you can see a lot of details which make it good if you disregard the writing.

Not really, only relevant detail that was nice in the whole season was Leon Belmont. I guess there was Gaibon and Slogra, but after that it was shit.

>>15764488

>Not really, in the fourth episode of the first season it's established pretty strongly that god himself is still on the side of good, and it is just a faction of the church corrupted by an evil man which is wicked and caused Dracula to blight the land

In the fucking second season they have a DISEASED ZOMBIE BISHOP, the same fucker from the first season, turning the water holy, making "everything holy" just magic.

>If anything you should be taking issue with how they portray Trevor Belmont as an edgelord and not a devout man of god

Likewise, do you expect to keep a different tune in the rest of the serie?

Friendly reminder that the manga/anime/OVA that Netflix Castlevania ripped off artistically and thematically was also anti-christian, immoral fucking garbage.
