oh..so everytime people force dracula's revival he loses all his memories before it..bummer i liked SotN dracula. But isn't Soma dracula now? >:(
Where was it said he loses the memory of his previous inarnations when he is brought back prematurely? it explains a lot, but, where was it said?
I remember reading it off of an IGA interview, but I don't remember where I found it. I also saw it on some website. I'll link it if I find it again.
There's no way I can trust that interview considering that Dracula's memory remains intact. Cause he still remembers the Belmonts, His wife Lisa, his son Alucard, etc. I have no idea what IGA is thinking whenever someone gives him an interview, or what possesses him to make such contradictions about the info he himself wrote up in the first place. This guy getting more messed up through his own faults by the day :P

On top of that, he seems to remember most, if not everything, in the Judgment dialogues.I agree with Jorge. I think that it has to do with the Chaos. While it is partially explained in AoS, there is a stream of Chaos flowing through the castle making it a creature of chaos. The castle is also a product of Dracula's powers meaning that his powers are linked with the Chaos somehow. Considering that the Chaos comes from the evil in people's hearts and the fact that it starts flowing into Soma when he defeats Graham, it would seem that the master of the castle, which is Dracula in SotN, is at least partially possessed by the Chaos enough to keep him evil. That being said, it seems that Dracula can have moments of true clarity after being defeated by someone he has a emotional connection too (for example his son, Alucard).
He remember EVERYONE there.
In SotN it's more like "Lisa, forgive me.... (but I cannot/will not stop this).... farewell, my son!". At least, that's how I see it implied.

Didn't Lament of innocence kinda messed up part of the storyline? Mathais(?) is dracula right? In the DXC manuel it said that Lisa was the only woman Dracula ever loved. Then y in the hell did it say that Elizabetha was Mathais's wife in LoI?
...
or maybe im just ignorant
I'd chalk that up to a simple mistake.
Also, I generally ignore localizations in favor of the original version.
Localization teams seem to favor things sounding good in English over accuracy.
About 2 of the things you mentioned are pronunciation issues mostly. Lecarde is still Lecarde, but pronounced ricardo in Japanese. Same for belmondo. Thats how they pronouce Belmont.
to be honest, i think Soma being a foreign student makes a bit more sense. You wont find many Japanese people with Hispanic like names.
Belnades is also mistranslated if i recall correctly. it is supposed to be Fernandez, making Carrie ironically, the only one with the correct name.
its just how they pronounce it. im japanese myself. Like japanese people pronounce david Debiito or pronouncing Alucard Alucaado
Arukado. I know all the Harmony of Despair characters' names with Japanese pronunciation.
