Castlevania animated series on Netflix?!

Brainiac, regarding Juste, was that ever stated or just kind of figured/assumed somehow? I can't remember, partly why I went with the "more or less" part.

Haha, I haven't seen that, but that itself is part of the theme of that character. Kind of amusing.

It's in Juste's bio found in the instruction manual (though with the Fernandez spelling instead). I think there's also a reference somewhere in the Sky Walkway area...not to mention the Cipher's Charm/Sypha's Crystal.

Yep, both Dirty Laundry and Dredd both show off an appropriate amount of violence in my opinion. The latter is deliberately gratuitous which matches with the work being adapted.

BalancedHydra none taken, although i saw that info on other sites too.

About the idea as a whole, i think Castlevania III: Dracula's curse is a easy path to choose.  My main reason is the number of characters and possibilites of interactions between them.

a TV / Netflix series requires a good cast of characters. ALL Igavanias are basically few people, with a single hero killing monsters from the beginning to the end. That really doesn't fit well in a default traditional series. How you would adapt Symphony of the Night? It is basically Alucard, Maria and Richter interacting with each other for few scenes, with Shaft and Dracula two times, at most. You can't do that on TV. It simply doesn't work well.

So, Dracula's curse is a good option, because you have several characters that are following the same mission to interact among themselves. And you have a lot of potential lores from several works to play around with, such as:

1) The Belmont family was feared due to their powers, even by the church itself. Trevor, in particular, was a man feared for his prowess.

2) Carmilla secretly exposed Sypha's witch clan or something like that in the past, gotting a lot of witches to the fire of inquisition.

3) Grant was jeaulous of Trevor's relationship with Sypha. He was also known as the fastest man in Vallachia and was a "good robber" that stealed from rich to help the poor. His name will be remembered for several generations thanks to his heroic feats.

4) Alucard is a character everyone loves and you can have him there on Dracula's curse. You can use his familiars and powers for more interaction.

Part of what i said above, is based on info from other games (such as Judgement), from official manuals and other official sources. That is a ton of plot you can play around with. If they plan on doing the whole Dracula's curse in only 4 episodes, you have tons of material to work with. If they plan on doing it for two seasons, even better.

You simply doesn't have all that in most other games. You would need to create and put fillers inside it to make it better for TV.

And we need to remember it is an adaptation. They will probably change things.

Ah, yes, I should have meant the original series, not the umm... totally odd pachislot spin-offs something, something.
I'll check the vid when I have more free time.
Thanks.

Yes, I did hear about the pachislots, but only about that Angela character. I guess I missed the fanservice bits regarding that.
Watched the video. You win.
I don't know why he was so hyper but that was epic.
And that Bloodstained reference. Twice.

There's definitely info out there about the original plot of this 'show'. It was an outline summary of it all, and went into different details. I gotta say I'm just happy this is finally happening. This was something worked on around 2006.. ALL this time and it's finally actually coming. It seems he probably broke this 'movie' idea into multiple episodes instead. Should be very interesting, and I agree that Castlevania 3 is a good way to do this what with the multiple characters. It'll be nice to see Alucard.

I repeat.

NO.

I want this to happen just to spite Brainiac.

Such is the nature of vileness. Justification not required.

Edit: Here is a topic that we can chew on. Music. If this animation is about CV3 then I wonder who will handle the musical score. Personally I would love to have the original composers update their tracks.

Hidenori Maezawa
Jun Funahashi
Yukie Morimoto
Yoshinori Sasaki

And no, I do not Yamane directly involved (maybe some tips and tricks). The woman is already hard at work with all the projects she has in her hands that I don't want to over-tax the good woman.
