Castlevania Season 4 Launches On Blu-ray This July

Those last episodes are an amazing work of storytelling and animation.

Amazing show. Along with Arcane the best video game TV shows ever made

This series is amazing. The animators that made this are also animating the Story Mode cutscenes in Sonic Origins (except for the older ones in Sonic CD's standalone version, which are still done by Toei Animation (then known as Toei Doga).

My only gripe with these VIZ Media releases of Castlevania is that they only have DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 tracks for the entire series.
Seasons 3 and 4 were in lossy Dolby Digital Plus with Dolby Atmos on Netflix so it would have been amazing if the Blu-ray was in Dolby TrueHD with Dolby Atmos.
Warner Bros. only distributes them but they have been mostly good with Dolby Atmos in their Blu-ray releases, even HBO shows like Game of Thrones and Westworld get Dolby Atmos.

I really hope VIZ and WB collaborate on making a SteelBook release ala. Game of Thrones with Dolby Atmos for Seasons 3 and 4, and maybe remixes for the first two seasons as well.

Great series. I do hope Netflix hasn't potentially canned its next iteration.

Hopefully Australia sees the complete series released. It was something I enjoyed watching on Netflix but from what I've gauged we've only seen the first season released physically and this is one Netflix series I'd buy standalone, given the recent articles about the provider.

people r badz that kind of show

Watched the first season, but stopped halfway of the second season. Just every episode got more boring. 🤷‍♂️

@MichaelP I hated the dialogue. It's like nobody had the ability to sound unique. The speech patterns, humor, and swearing show Warren Ellis can't write dialogue or distinct characters. Crassness doesn't mean someone is badass or witty.

Almost forgot VIZ made DVD/Blu-Ray sets for shows that aren't Pokémon.

First season rocked, but season three blew so bad. At least they managed to end it in a halfways tolerable way.
All characters just want to sound smarter and more smug than the other within a story stretched thin over way too many episodes. S1 was perfect with 4 episodes.

@tameshiyaku I totally agree. Season 3 left a sour taste in my mouth and I almost dropped the show. However when season 4 came out, curiosity drew me to it. While better than 3, I just don’t get the high praise this show gets. Your analysis of the characters is spot on, they sounded like teenagers trying too hard to be edgy. I’m a fiction writer and if I tried to sell a story with that type of dialogue no publisher would touch it.

Alucard in games:
Powerful Dhampir, which in one game referenced as vampiric Arch-Angel Michael, stayed true to his mother believes and protectred them, even after she was crucify on his eyes, making allusion on Jesus death.
Alucard in series:
Teenager which can't stop pronounce f word without any believes and started abandon his humanity after two random japanese betrayed him. Thats why he pissed on their corpses and became alcoholic, until he met bisexual girl, which agreed to date with him.
Dracula in games:
Powerful Dark Lord controlling army of Pagan Gods, mythical creatures, with magical castle built from chaos itself, allusion not only to book prototype and Vlad Thepes but to best anime villians and Mathias Corvinus (Hungarian king which with help of intrigues and political games defeated real Dracula).
Dracula in series:
Tried to look most intelligent creature in universe, but, in truth, suicidal passive looser, which had nothing in common with book or game prototype, and gave his powers and charisma to Carmilla and Isaac, because of Netflix policy of LGBTQ+. But everyone love him because of drama, feeling pity for him and endless sufferings, manipulative dialogues and nature of series.
Question: Should Netflix, Warren Ellis and Adi Shankari adapt, for example, The Legend of Zelda, with the same pattern, where Link will use language, Zelda will be egoistic all-knowing (can't write, rules), and Ganon will be replaced by, for example, Koume and Kotake, which will betray him, because he's a weak man?

Ultimately, that show had tons of potential but didn't entirely execute. A few odd decisions with established characters too. Overall, I liked it, but it could have (should have?) been something truly special.

Is it UHD? Anyway i must say Halo is one of the best video games adaptation on tv too. Seems like tv series (live action or animated) is the right format for video games.
