Guys, if anyone had followed this guys work at all you would know that literally every fan product this guy has made is part of his "bootleg multiverse."  So a cross over between Castlevania and Devil May Cry is about as likely as a crossover with Dredd, or Power Rangers.

Pretty much this, and I've also been telling people who asked my opinion the same thing.

If you're familiar with Shankar you know that 1) he says these kinds of hype-generating one liners all the time knowing full well what he's doing and 2) his "bootleg multiverse" has existed for some years now, in the shape of separate Venom, Dredd, Punisher and Power Rangers "Bootleg Universes".

Visit Shankar's channel. You'll see that Castlevania has belonged on a "Bootleg Universe" of its own for a while. This talk of multiverse isn't exactly news to his persona.

All he truly said is that Devil May Cry is joining his "style" of doing stuff. He just gave it the "Bootleg Multiverse" name.

PS: I would still not rule out a crossover. Shankar likes his fanfiction and is basically Super Waffle with more influence. I'm just saying it's a bit too early to jump to "crossover" conclusions based on a specific wording that Shankar knows exactly what means.

I'm sure he would do it if he could.  And I would be totally down, DMC is my 2nd favorite game series, and with some light universe tweeking it could work out fine.  That said, I doubt Konami and Capcom would ever sign off on this.

Dracula was not always a monster. He was once a man named Mathias Cronqvist. A flawed, conflicted, genius of a man. How did the educated, aristocratic, crusader who piously served the church become a vampire, and eventually the Dark Lord himself, the opposing force to God? From a very young age terrors and tragedy shaped the man into the king of all evil. This is his story.

Oh boy, I'm so happy I didn't take a drink while reading this or it would have splattered on the PC screen. Hahahahahaha

Well, the week of mainly bed rest that I had last week did wonders.  I drove today at last!  Two months after surgery, wooohooo!  I treated my friends who’ve been helping me out to pizza as a thank you, as they came with me in case I found it was too soon to drive, and too painful to be able to drive.  But hey, I’m seeing this as a few months of discomfort and inconvenience vs the decades of pain that I’ve been in, because my old GO wouldn’t investigate the source of the pain.

As for the DMC shared multiverse, I likewise hope that it’s not too much of a crossover tbh.  A shared look and aesthetic and tone I wouldn’t be against.  If they go for the same kind of animation style as Castlevania I’d be really quite happy with that.  Seeing as personally I’ve really liked what they’ve done with Castlevania, I have faith in them for Devil May Cry.  I’ve got the first three games, I just suck at them.  But I love the universe.
Well I'm glad you things seem to be getting better, but i'm sorry they  didn't investigate  were the pain was coming from till now. Its very shocking  to hear  as  you've been in pain for so long, but I'm glad things hopefully will pick up from here.

Oh yeah, the library has whacked out loads of Easter Eggs. If you actually look at them closely, they even have the cataloging numbers from the SOTN bestiary

I hope Alucard employs the Master Librarian to help with all that stuff in the belmont library.  Maybe even look after it while he takes his centuries long nap.

Is the Master Librarian capable of leaving Castlevania? I thought he was bound to it or something.

Different universe, different rules (also no word that he can't leave the castle or something, we don't even know what he's supposed to be, a ghost, vampire, etc).

You never know, that how we may get the Alucard spear in the Netflix universe, by mixing the counts  knowledge of science and magic, and the Belmont's knowledge of hunting and magic. I think that be cool. as I always believed that the Alucard made the spear, by texts he found in the  his family's  book of secret arts.

So i thought in the TV show, it be cool if he made the spear from a mix of both, a nice way to call back to it but give it a new life too.


Ad thinking about it Gandolfi most likely used other stuff he found in the book, to make the armour  he sold, and on a bigger note, maybe others used stuff from that book.  So that why stuff like holy armour and what not, find there way  into the castle as there maybe a link.

As the stuff you sometimes find there seem to work against the counts plans.

But that's just  what i think.  :rollseyes:
