	Our main protagonist Miriam, who's pretty much a copypaste of Shanoa from OoE/Soma from Aria and Dawn down to the "steal enemy souls for new powers" bit, but her powers are derived from some alchemical ritual that lets her absorb demonic energy. See, the Alchemists created a bunch of people like her in order to summon demons from the pits of Hell in a gambit to scare people away from that trite "progress at the sake of spiritualism" dealio that the Industrial Revolution presented. It backfired horribly and instead the Alchemists and most of Europe get ravaged for ten years with the only surviving members of the ritual being Miriam (by being rendered comatose through unknown means) and Gebel (who managed to survive the mess of being used as demon fuel and acted as a moral guide for Miriam) while the Guild falls apart. Some years later, Miriam awakens and finds out that Gebel has returned to the Alchemist base in order to summon a giant castle filled with demons. Together with junior Alchemist Johannes (who acts as the crafter/stay-at-home husband), Dominique (an exorcist of the Catholic Church who also runs a market) and her contracted swordsman Zangetsu (voiced by David "Solid Snake" Hayter), Miriam delves into this castle to uncover just what turned Gebel to attempt wiping out humanity and prevent him from using a legendary tome to summon the most powerful daemon of them all.

			Has an 8-bit companion for the nostalgia-seekers in the form of ''Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon'', which also serves as a prequel.

	'''Castlevania''' is a classic series of platform games, where the player controls a [[vampire]]/monster hunter that fights vampires (with a whip), other undead, and most everything else you can think of. Early games were infamous for their difficulty, but when the series took a turn to what people call "Metroidvania" the difficulty dropped in favor of exploration, cool level design, and (somewhat rarely) [[Awesome]] story ideas. The newer games are a bit too [[/v/]] for most of [[/tg/]]'s liking (as well as the bulk of the Castlevania fanbase). Konami's sudden pachinko and mobile gaming obsession unfortunately ensures that there won't be any future entries for a long while, if at all. In the meantime, enjoy the animeesque series created for Netflix.

The events of Dracula's Curse are retold in the Netflix Castlevania series, which is notably FAR more adult (and less musical) than the game. Despite Netflix’s notoriety of infamous adaptations, this has been regarded as one of the best of all time. Granted there are some things it was unable to do (Danasty is reduced to a one-off line, and they tried their best to put in a reference to the wall porkchop), and it is clear that they were [[derp\|forced to add real world diversity/equity in a medieval fantasy,]] but such details should not get in the way of its satisfying fight choreography, stellar storywriting, enjoyable characters and humor. Should you find this series on a torrent site or watching on a friend’s account, you will be entertained.

This game was pretty much hated by everyone or met with extreme apathy, including Igarashi himself, so when Lament of Innocence retconned it with the tale of Leon and Mathias, nobody really minded. The only real loss is the waifu of a protagonist making the series less of a sausage fest.

	Frustrating as a time skip to Castlevania fans due to the massive events. In ~~this time World War 2 occurs which Dracula has involvement in somehow, and in~~ 1999 there is a war called the "Demon Castle War" which is essentially World War 3 (when Nostradamus predicted another World War supposedly) during an eclipse where the fate of the world would be decided. The reason the Belmonts took a break from using the Vampire Killer was to save their strength for this war. Alucard acted as a secret agent wearing sunglasses, and the nations of the world fought against Dracula's infinite monster hordes as Julius Belmont defeated Dracula for the last time, killing him for real at long last somehow. That time travel asshole from Curse Of Darkness, Saint Germain, also played a part apparently.		Frustrating as a time skip to Castlevania fans due to the massive events.

Maybe they worried they would never be able to do it justice.
