For tonight's Quarantine Control on @damagecontrolblog I wrote about Castlevania: Nocturne. I really enjoyed this show. @Dio_Senrab wrote about Turn A Gundam, and CWTyger wrote about Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. We had a good mix of animation to talk about this week, so check us out!
I watched #castlevanianocturne and I thought it was brilliant. Only afterwards did I find out about the “audience score” and related review bombing. It’s definitely not a perfect show, but this campaign of bad reviews has all the hallmarks of an alt right anti-woke grift. These complaints are tired, lazy, and frankly boring. #castlevania
Castlevania Nocturne is good. REALLY good. This one is set in the time of the French Revolution and features Richter Belmont and a badass group of vampire and demon killers he fights alongside. Violent and sad but always with a sense of hope and justice. Just saw it's already been renewed for part 2, too. Oh, and obviously not for kids! Haha
