Why does this work better than it should?

Wow, that's good! If CV actually did take place in Japan (not counting AoS since that's in the eclipse), the I think this tune would fit very well as a theme for whatever stage they decide to put it in.

Holy hell, this is awesome. I really dig traditional eastern music, especially elements from it combined with rock. And this fits the bill nicely.

Well, considering that Castlevania as a series has (mostly) been an artistic endeavor that takes western horror themes, views them through the lens of Japanese artists'/content creators', then interprets it with a smidge of creative license...it's not that surprising at how well this works out. The opening base line in Divine Bloodlines ALWAYS made me think of someone strumming a shamisen with purpose anyway, so this fell right in line for me. :3

@plottwist: Not bad. That image would work well.
