His story already appeals to the Castlevania Netflix creative team by playing into their sappy version of Dracula.

Do you think they would actually do a straight adaptation of this?

    Yes, though I'd rather see Julius' prequel. His fight against Drac would be more interesting than Soma's bullshit.

      That was a missed opportunity to have a game based on him yeah.

      Do you really want to see Netflix get their hands on CV1999, anon? They’ve already excised Dracula and Dracula’s Evil Castle from a franchise built around those two concepts and poured in a slurry of neopaganism, racial posturing, and class warfare to fill the worldbuilding void. I’d rather not imagine what sort of clusterfuck would replace the final battle against the metaphysical Evil that Dracula represents. They clearly have no respect for the supernatural fantasy side of Castlevania beyond muh vampires and cool Avatar magics.

      Plus they’ve already blown the super-eclipse for Nocturne in the same way they blew Alucard’s SOTN arc for season 2, so lol enjoy your completely original plot. And let’s be honest, they’d just have Alucard do all the heavy lifting for a third time anyway

        Maybe Julius goes after Dracula for being a conservative politician.

          Dracula’s a sad tragic science man in Netflix, so it can’t be him. My vote goes to vampire Ronald Reagan, at the very least it would be campy and it opens up the possibility of occult space lasers.

        Well, I was imagining it would be completely self contained within Castlevania, neither Soma nor Julius exist outside of it (not literally, of course, just that unlike Richter and Trevor, neither have had any in-game appearance outside of either Castlevania itself or whatever that castle was in the sequel).
        This is specifically why I don't want a Shanoa one. Besides the fact that she is devoid of personality because plot, I don't want to see them do anything outside of Castlevania.

          Anon, have you seen or heard anything about Nocturne? If not, I have terrible news for you.

    Removing Dracula as a recurring antagonist really hurts the impact of Soma, I feel. I'm sure they'll jump straight to Sorrow after Nocturne anyway, though. They'll probably keep the reincarnation twist though I don't know how they'd do 1999 when Dracula was last seen totally normal with his suicidal war being brushed off and forgiven.

    I assume they'll bring Dracula back in Nocturne and have Richter do the DIE MONSTER scene, though.

    They've done a "straight" adaptation of jack shit. All they've done is vaguely animate someone's awful fanfiction.

    Imagine Soma with the grotesque yellow skin they gave the Japs who fucked Alucard

    Straight how? There's barely any plot in the games, so even if the writers weren't subversive marxist vermin, getting at least 8 episodes out of the sorrow stuff would be difficult
    Best you can get is that the character designs are 100% accurate and nobody gets turned into a groid
