These artbooks only get made when a show is over.

I guess going woke with Castlevania Nocturne didn't work out for Netflix. They chased away the normies that loved the 2017 show.

Is it over for animated Castlevania? Or do you think they will attempt to course correct with a different Belmont?

It was terrible, hopefully Neflixvania is done and DMC follows suit after season 2

Removing Dracula as the central antagonist wasn't the wisest choice they made.

The Belmonts basically don't have a purpose without Dracula.

Good riddance, they deserved it by making a shitty vampire story and just slapping the Castlevania brand to sell it

Which hilariously was Richter's villain motivation in SotN but I don't expect anyone who works on the Netflix show to actually know that since that would involve actually playing a Castlevania game.

Which included some brainwashing by the dark priest Shaft.

Anyway I read in an interview with the producers that the future of animated castlevania may be movies and not multi season shows.

Dracula not coming back in Season 4 remains the dumbest and most obvious missed opportunity I have ever seen in a Netflix property.

Also they kept talking about wanting to adapt the Sorrow games but there's no point in making them with the S4 happy ending they gave Dracula
What the fuck were they thinking

Lets be real, the 2017 show chased away fans of the 2017 show by the end.
This show had no trust from it's audience from the start, and they only proved themselves not worthy of it for the few who decided to stick around.

That tweet probably cost them viewership, they deleted it shortly afterwards and Samuel Deats condemned it.

None of them were especially good. The fact that they had a positive reputation was a bad thing, because it gave that obnoxious retarded faggot Adi Shankar the leverage to get the rights for more properties to make more shows, even though he didn't make shit and the faggots who made these awful shows so he could stamp his name on them did a piss poor job.

Funny enough he was ousted from Castlevania after season 2 of the original series.

Don't know, if season 2 of DMC is a bomb then his career will definitely diminish.

I didn't post in the thread(s) about it when the latest season dropped because my interest in the show really plateaued with the Lisa resurrection shit and just kind of got lower each season. But as a huge game Maria fan I did actually enjoy what they did with her character in the latest season. And that's really saying a lot because last season I thought she was complete shit. I'd even say the most recent Nocturne season was the best Netflixvania has been since like the 2010s-- not that that's a high bar but it was watchable and I had a decent time.

But yeah even with that I genuinely hope this is the end of it. Better to go out on a relative high note for this show than to inevitably do more dumb bullshit if they get a continuation.

I'd like to see a different Castlevania show made by someone else in the future, like hey maybe an actual Japanese studio this time, but I get that's unlikely. They didn't even do one in like the '90s/2000s when the games were still an actual thing.

My dream project would be a Leon Belmont movie or mini series made by the studio that did Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

They tried but it got trapped in development hell. Where do you think the idea for a Castlevania III anime came from to begin with?

How come Woke shows tend to be super racist by accident? This and iron heart are good examples of making black characters look bad.

Liberals usually create racist media unintentionally because they're still racist, they've just convinced themselves that they aren't. Affluent urban types statistically don't live around minority groups as often as poorer/rural ones do. They end up only being exposed to snapshots of how other ethnic groups act while being taught to put them on pedestals while hating themselves. The end result is them still Othering the rest of the population.

I'm amazed they felt the need to apologize for this. Usually they treat shitting on the male MC as a sport, so why back down off of it now? I suppose its because the show really was repellant to fans in a way that was damaging.

Also, holy shit, she said Richter was useless because he ran away during a PTSD episode after facing the guy who killed his parents. I don't even care at this point, I hate the character for life.

Fuck him too, he got butthurt when people didn't like Alucard getting fucked in the ass and him and his faggot brother would actually throw tantrums on twitter over people calling the show fanfiction before some PR person probably told them to delete the tweets
Someone's got the screenshots but this potato faced faggot and his soiboy brother are just as responsible for the show going to shit just like Ellis and everyone else. They did a shit job as directors and let the whole thing go down in flames because they thought they could ride the woke train too
Also they were fine with showrunners harassing people until Dreamin called them out on it. Fuck the Deats brothers and fuck Powerhouse I'm glad their studio is dying

The series was doomed from the start but I wanted to contest the idea that it is actually worse than the first series.
>Normalfags are only interest in Dracula.
>Fans of the previous show are happy about Dracula's happy ending.
>Fans of Castlevania already hate the show.
Personally, I would just make a straight adaptation of RoB and never address past events or characterizations. I also will never confirm or deny that it is in a different continuity. If I have make Annette Black, I would do absolutely nothing with it. No backstory. No characterization related to it. No explanation. Nobody treats her any different. She speaks perfect English with no accent. No Africanized variation to her name or powers of African origins. Richter is affiliated with the Church. There is no questions asked about it.

>>149307176
This is why I hate how normalfags use the word "woke". Normalfags would eat up commie gobbledegook as long as there isn't full of girlbosses or troons.

Not even Konami likes this show.
