Excellent, though short first season!
Castlevania is an animated series based on the Gothic vampire video game series of the same name (Castlevania III specifically). This show was a great surprise to me at just how much I enjoyed it, I didn't think it would be very good yet I loved it although it feels more like a prologue that stops just as it's starting to really get really good (Season 2 is double the episode count and if anything is even better and more complete.).The first season focuses on a mixture of characters including the legendary Vlad Dracula Tepes, who needs little introduction (kind of a famous vampire, you might have heard of him), Trevor Belmont, a drunkard and the last survivor of a family whose lineage has hunted the creatures of the night for centuries, and Sypha Belnades, a speaker with powerful magic. Each character has their own reasons for what they do including a surprisingly good look at Dracula which really help give the show, motivations, tragedy and depth.What really brings the show to life though is the surprising quality of the voice acting including actors from The Hobbit, Battelstar Galactica, Max Headroom, Stargate, etc. The performances are excellent (Especially Graham Mctavish as Dracula) and with the surprising high quality of the animation, art and music really nailing the Castlevania atmosphere. The production values are all surprisingly impressive.In short, it's a great show with great art, music, voice acting, writing, action and characters with quite a lot of comedy, violence and action. It's one flaw is it's only four episodes and stops literally as it's getting going but having seen season 2 recently it's worth the commitment if you are a Castlevania, animation or vampire fan though you may want to watch both seasons back to back. It's worth it.Recommended.+ Fantastic atmosphere.+ Great art, animation and music.+ Voice acting is great.+ Surprisingly good pacing, writing and exposition.- Season 1 is far too short and stops as the going gets good.
