Inspired by my previous thread that only include Metroidvania games starting from SOTN and ending with Order of Ecclesia I have assembled all Castle Entrance themes from 8-16 bit era classic Castlevania titles, including the Game Boy. Note 1: In case the song appear more than once in the series, I only include the first appearance. For example, "Bloody Tears" in this poll is from Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. Note 2: I didn't intend to create 2 separate polls about Castle Entrance themes (I posted the first poll around 3 months ago). But I think it turns out well having 2 threads, one for each era of the series. SOTN being the start of a new Metroidvania era. P.S. I'll have to go with Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse for this one XD Castlevania Castlevania II: Simon's Quest Castlevania: The Adventure (Game Boy) Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge (Game Boy) Super Castlevania IV Castlevania: Rondo of Blood Castlevania: Bloodlines And here's a link to the playlist of entire Castle Entrance songs created by me: Note to Mike or other admins: Please feel free to rename the topic of the first poll to be something like "Best Metroidvania Castle Entrance themes" to distinguish from this one. (I can't rename it myself because Mike moved the poll from 'General Bloodstained discussion' section, so I'm not the topic owner anymore)

I must pick Bloody Tears for being a classic tune.

Probably can't choose between Beginning, Bloodlines and Reincarnated Soul. They're all too good.

@_@
Bloody Tears though, id leave that song playing for hours
the gameboy tracks are pretty epic though, espeacially when you bring them up to the capabilities of the other systems

Bloodlines of Heaven and Earth / Divine Bloodlines / Opposing Bloodlines / Bloodlines all the way. Akumajo Densetsu's Beginning is close second.

I love them all, but personally Bloodlines has the best music here, they all have their charms (particularly I & II) but Bloodlines showed what the Megadrive's sound-chip was really capable of.

I voted Castlevania II, but truthfully I like Castlevania III's the best.

It's kind of unfair because Bloody Tears is hugely iconic while not really being a "castle entrance" song. It's just the daytime music, so if anything that would be Dwelling of Doom I guess.

At the request of purifyweirdshard , here's the Vampire Killer music with a sound-font similar to Mega Man X2.
