No shit! Since IGA took over there hasnt been but 1 game that starred a Belmont. The rest the Belmonts have become no bigger chars than fuckin Slogra and Gaibon.

Thats why these newer games don't have a Castlevania feel to them.

Indeed, the newer Metroidvanias are very gothy and Castlevanish.

It's just that some people think that Castlevania should only consist of bottomless pits & levels. It's not the 80's anymore.

You're making baseless assumptions and you're judging people.

I for one am fine with Metroidvanias. I'm even okay with Portrait (shock), but I still hold a soft spot for the older games, but I'll take what they produce in any case. If Iga wants to hammer out another Sorrow title and give it stupid animu designs, I'll certainly lament that he can't seem to return to the "roots" of his career, but I'll still be fine with the newer direction of the series and buy the new releases.

First: Alucard's voice is indeed deep which is why he keeps his testicles in his boot.

Second: Belmonts are boss its just that they ALL have the surname as opposed to the bloodline realistically branching out. Example Leon has a kid that kid has two kids one of those kids has a girl the other has a girl and three boys until eventually everyone around the village and surrounding villages has Belmont blood. Its cool to have a single male heir but there should be no reason that Julius at the age of 50 should have to fight because by his time Belmont should be as common as Smith around Transylvania.

What I would like to see is Alucard revealing his true form and powers to Soma as well as formaly introducing himself as Dracula's son.  I would really like to see Soma's reaction.  I think that Soma would be surprised, angry, and confused.  I think that he would be surprised because I doubt he would be expecting that such an individual exists, He would be angry that it was kept a secret from him, and confused that Julius (a vampire hunter) hasn't tried to kill Dracula's son.

No one complained when the "animu" was used in Rondo. Besides, Ecclesia is anything BUT "animu".

I'd also like to point out that most anime vastly differ in style. Really, what similarities are there between Jotaro Kujo and Son Goku, artistically?

The anime style used if Dawn of Sorrow is very similar if not exactly like the style used in the "Ghost in the Shell" TV series. It's just in the way that Soma was drawn. You look at it and think... Where have I seen that look before? Ah! Major Motoko.

P.S. Even if this game is the last adventure for Soma I doubt it'll be the last CV game to be made. There are still tons of other evil baddies out there besides Dracula that the Belmonts could go up against. Other Vampires, Demons, etc.

Don't forget after Soma eventually dies from old age or something else, his reincarnation may become the next dark lord.  Or, someone else could emerge as the dark lord.  There are many possiblities.
