Jedi Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 http://io9.gizmodo.com/netflix-has-announced-a-castlevania-tv-show-for-2017-1792131221 Not that Castlevania needs anything more to smear its name in the mud after the horrible Lords of Shadow subseries, or the recent travel into Pachinko, but who knows, this could turn out interesting. Granted one of the guys working on it, is a guy who made a very dumb power rangers spoof video that for some reason people liked. Me? I'm just waiting for Bloodstained Ritual of the Night for a proper game again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBow Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 That's great. Maybe they will even release an actual video game with the Castlevania name on it in order to market the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please, this is 2017 Konami we are talking about, they have no clue how to do anything anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondworld Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Oh, uh, okay sure, why not? I don't feel much other than surprise about this, at least until any details come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical CC Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Why not? While Dragon Nuts Devolution was horrible, it's still fun to watch it and laugh at how bad it is. I dont see how Cattlevania can be worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I really hope Captain N guest-stars in an episode. It's weird seeing series based on games after so long, I had thought that the 90's had put people off the idea. It'll be interesting to see how things turn out.

Magical CC Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The best Cattlevania anime is still Vampire D anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted one of the guys working on it, is a guy who made a very dumb power rangers spoof video that for some reason people liked. Me? I'm just waiting for Bloodstained Ritual of the Night for a proper game again. I'm hoping that the show is about a guy that has to battle his gambling addiction with Pachinko machines. He'll defeat his addiction by destroying the machine and be overcome with a curse that slowly kills him until he rebuilds the Pachinko machine. This requires him going all over the town gathering pieces of the destroyed machine until he can rebuild it. Thus ending the curse and saving the town from being destroyed because the machines were the only real form of income. Seriously, this seems really weird, but I think I'll give it a chance. I do like Castlevania, so it's hard to see it drag its feet around like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Zap Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Considering how terrible Konami has turned out lately, I'll be rather pessimistic about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slumber Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) Points for: Castlevania is pretty decent source material Netflix is usually pretty spot on with quality The people behind it seem interested and competent Points against: Konami Adi Shankar is can be spotty with his projects(Dredd was amazing, Voices and Dirty Laundry were pretty good, Machine Gun Preacher was awful and that Power Rangers skit was cringey as fuck) It's a video game property I'll be skeptical. It could be good, but it's also very likely that it could be bad. Edited February 12, 2017 by Slumber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
