Yeah, but you can't possibly say that the Kojima Simon is the worst. I actually quite like it. It's much better than the "Jolly Green Giant" from Haunted Castle.  :P

well, somewhere between leon and trevor, people discovered the belmonts power to fight the undead and grew to fear them. you'd live like a hermit too if people crapped their pants every time you drew near and asked you to leave. trevor changed that by being the first to truly destroy dracula.

Actually I think he probably made it worse along with chris who let his son get kidnapped and raise hell. I like how Richiter was all like screw you guys I'm here to stay and your gonna like it and got himself a real wife instead of a one night stand like I think simon, trevor/ralph and chris had to do. (though I could be wrong as this has yet to be explained)

whoops. (smacks self in head) Sorry just woke up. It's hard to tell if their relationship went anywhere though and I know they had a thing but most of us have had many partners, I can't remember the exact ending text but I believe CVIII doesn't say they got married, it just says they had a thing for each other. (goes to mr p's to read it again).

Yep just confirmed it, all the ending says is that they liked each other didn't see a mention of marraige or commitment or anything.

every time you drew near and asked you to leave.
eh? he was practically banished and more than likely the villagers mob rushed him until he managed to escape them.

the villagers in middle ages were a bunch of uneducated morons who believed everything the church told them. witch hunts anyone? it's not like they came to someone they thought was a demon and said "can you plz go away?"

i mean, they burned lisa on a stake because they thought she was a witch while in reality she was just making medicine. i don't think they'd just ask trevor to leave if he actually possessed powers that they'd believe came from the devil, if they went and murdered someone for who they had no evidence on.

maybe i took the american version too seriously "the townspeople became afraid of the belmonts super-human power and asked them to leave the country"

in the japanese version, the church/pope it/himself hired ralph/trevor, so there's another factor in clearing the belmont name.

Harmony of Dissonance's game amnual says that Juste is gifted in magic because he inherited the genes from the Trevor Belmont/Sypha Belnades union.  it is official canon that they marry and have at least one child.

you're forgetting that most of early english game "translations" in those times were pulled out of their asses. in most cases they simply took few pointers (names, some event but sometimes not even that), then erased the rest of the storyline and wrote their own stuff as they saw fit.
