Yeah overall I think the animation was acceptable, but there was some definite moments where it was awful. Think it was the 2nd episode? Sypha had like a minute scene where she was looking down and forlorn but she looked like a downy potato mongoloid

I'd don't really know where they go from here.
Essentially a happy ending. and part of the problem is we see the start middle and end of dracula.
Carmilla could come back. I was a little annoyed with how they never quite gave her a "wreck face" scene. She's got more screen time then dracula himself in the games really... I kindof would have preferred her have killed Isaac. going out on her own terms is the only slight redemption, while they had her on the ropes the whole time. They set up the other 3 vampires beginning to question her ambitions. I would have had her kill Isaac when he attacks. instead of making Isaac this gary stu. then, had the other 3 and Hector turn on her, when they now seen how out of control she is. and have her kill at least the "war general" one, if not both her and her wife, to show Carmilla as not just the "schemer" but also as far beyond them, as dracula was. with Hector, Lenore, and maybe Morana taking her down together.
timeskip issues. well, as stated, they mushed the timeline on dracula to basically 1 lifetime. if they try going into the future. what kind of bullshit are they going to have to pull to make dracula evil again? THIS season was already, evil misguided cults bringing him back. so, they can't really do that again.
even doing prequels, this version of dracula basically went evil only "1 year ago" prior to the story.
Also, I just realized Alucard is 19 in this series. lol. (or 19 when his mom is killed, so 20 I guess when hes awoken.) checking wiki. castlevania 3 was in 1476. lisa died in 1470. sotn was 1797. So, his age was not entirely clear originally, but still would have been mid twenties in 3.
What they can do for prequels.
leon was mentioned already. alchemy was a very big topic this season. so, can do that. Leon, sara and Vampire killers creation. I probably would have put more hints into Vampire killer being "alive" more.
Simon is the most popular traditionally. Quest is the most "rpg" in the first place. so, leaves much open for creating stories.
Castlevania 1: 1691. . and castlevania 2: 1698.
sotn is of course also popular. Each of those both require again... Dracula to be crazy evil, and embodiment of chaos again.

yes and no. first, i think the stories of trevor and sypha are done. probably alucard too. but the belmonts themselves have plenty of stories i mean, the house of belmont MEANT something before trevor's time. they could do a prequal of sorts and focus on leon belmont and the rise of the belmonts as monster hunters.
they could also do some time jumps... ultimately with dracula alive there's GOING to be problems down the line. lisa is GOING to die. he's not going to turn her and at some point he's going to be left to his own devices. perfect time to bring in simon or some of the others [/spoilers]

warren ellis. i don't really know or care about the details, but from what i understood he was mostly just being credited and had less and less to do with the show after like season 2, i think? either way season 4 just had him credited.

Studio used his full scripts for season 4 which he finished prior to the allegations coming out.

did they? i read an article a few months back that said they didn't use anything from him for season 4. like i said, i couldn't really care less about any of that stuff so i haven't been following it. can't even remember where the article was, other than it being one of those stupid outlets like screen rant.

Just binged the last season over two nights. What a great final season. Season 1 and 4 are the best. I almost gave up on this show after season 2 because of the Carmilla stuff, but I'm very glad I didn't.
This is the best show/movie ever based off a video game by far. I'm curious to see which way they go for future shows. Simon seems the obvious way to go, but who knows.

Season 3 was rough for me just due to the pace. It was very slow throughout. The story was still interesting and stuff was just a lot of setup. The payoff in s4 was great though. I know they were forced to finish it this season so they probably rushed it but I was good with that. I don’t really like when they drag stuff out just for the sake of extending it. This wrapped up every plot line nicely and didn’t feel rushed, it just felt like it was ready to tie it all up.
