First of all, dispite what the english version of AoS says, Soma is Japanese.  I don't know why he is called an exchange student.  Especially, because he and Mina are "childhood friends".  I heard that in the Japanese version of AoS, there is no mention of him being an exchange student.  In that version he is just a Japanese high school student.

Anyway, back on topic, the ending in Julius mode in DoS is just an alternate ending.  From what I know, the real ending is the good one in which Soma destroys Menace (spelling?).  What's truly depressing is that if there is another sorrow game made, I predict that either Soma or Alucard will die.  I've always interpreted the prophecy from AoS in a way that either Soma or Alucard are the ones referred to.  Think about it.  The prophecy never said that the knew master would take power immediately.  It only said that a new master would come to the castle and both Soma and Alucard were there.  Also, those two are the only ones who have a legitimate right to the throne.  Soma is Dracula's reincarnation and Alucard is Dracula's son.  My prediction is that for one reason or another those two will end up fighting each other and only one will survive.  The surviver will probably end up losing his humanity and become the new dark lord.  Then again, this is only a theory.

I don't think IGA will kill off Alucard. He's been living for centuries, a little Japanese kid with soul power won't be able to take out Ol' Adrian.

Maybe when Soma dies of old age, disembowlment, etc. his soul (well, Dracula's soul) will enter a new body. That's the way I see it, anyway.

No way, you're right. Alucard CAN'T die. If there is a final sorrow game, it should feature Alucard as the main character, and he should kick the crap out of Soma.

Alucard's freakin' old. Why the hell isn't he aging yet by the time of the Sorrow games?

He looks younger than he did in SOTN!

Maybe he got himself some blood. In most tales vampires/dhampires rejuvenate by drinking blood. But I don't think anything about the whole blood drinking thing is ever mentioned in CV. Was just an idea though.

And i have another question!! How is he able to transform into a whole different person? I mean he's wandering with other people as Jenya Aricado, a totally different person from the original Alucard. Alucard has blond hairs and Jenya balck hairs. I never heard of vampires that they can change their shape and appearance. Anyone else has ever wonder this one?

Maybe the old gent's been hanging out with Vampire Hunter D (who by all accounts has been alive a long long time). That is, if he was any inspiration for Alucard/Adrien Tepes to begin with.

I'd always felt the Julius mode ending was most appropriate. But enough talk.

I always thought Alucard just dyed his hair black, so as not to be too obvious. Unless dhampirs have some sort of dye-repelling agent in their hair, it's perfectly plausible. Also, I am in favor of Soma dying, not Alucard. Alucard is too good to die. :P

I always thought he pulled off a magical illusion similar to the Zelda/Sheik thing from Ocarina of Time.

Agreed. Also, if he can shoot fireballs, if he can even change into bat/wolf/mist, then why not into a different person? Who knows what magic he possesses?

I guess that's possible. :P It's either
a) He can change his appearance at will (or his hair, at least)
b) Simple, he dyed it.

Either way, have you seen Alu-.. Genya? He's lovable. :P

I also thought that's what it wa. But have you ever looked at a picture of Arikado next to Alucard? The only different is the hair and clothes. Otherwise they look exactly the same, and that's not just Kojima's style playing tricks on your eyes It's possible, while unlikely that he cut his hair and dyed it then got some new clothes. The only thing that makes this a bit unlikely is how he was able to change from Arikado to Alucard in DoS so easily, then right back to Arikado for the conclusion. Then again, that Julius mode isn't even canon.
