Castlevania revolutionized the vampire theme

Castlevania It started as a fairly simple, but very interesting video game about a family of vampire hunters who must destroy Dracula and all his followers. The premise in this format allowed for bloody and brutal confrontations, but also for the development of protagonists who became more complex as the medium evolved in the face of new technologies and the demands of the players. Thus, Castlevania created a very important legacy that soon crossed borders to present new material in comics, novels and, eventually, animated series.

The idea of ​​adapting this story is one that has been passed around in Hollywood for several years, and although great directors have tried to create adaptations for the big screen, something always happens that ends the plans suddenly.

That’s why most had their reservations when Netflix revealed that they had acquired the rights to release an animated series, but the first season of Castlevania – 85% cleared up the doubts in general.

What made this proposal so interesting is that Netflix rather rescued and supported it, since Warren Ellis spent years writing and rewriting the scripts so that they looked good and despite the fact that the project fell apart on several occasions in other companies. Fans were delighted with the first episodes, and although the following seasons generated many debates among connoisseurs, critics and the general public received them very well, and gladly prepared for the arrival of a sequel series.
