I watched blood of zeus and it was forgettable mush, and all I saw of season 3 of Castlevania was the Alucard double team ass fucking clip and didn't bother following the show or the studio's work afterward.
They followed that up with season 2, which immediately shed its positives that season one had. Bloated pacing, cringeworthy dialogue, and wannabe GOT vampire politics. Completly fucking the adaption of Dracula's curse and doing nothing with it's extra episodes it was given. It had some good...
That whole studio has been overrated since the admittedly good first season of Castlevania came out (with 4 episodes) even if the animation got stilted at points and is written by the edgy redditor Warren Ellis.
New DMC netflix show is just muh Bush, America, Middle-east, Oil, Demons are brown people, etc. So about as insightful as one can expect from Shankar, who made the masterpiece that is 'How To Fix Apu Once And For All'
And of course we have the incel core humble beta male protagonist (who most certainly doesn't have a dick in his pants) who is surrounded by a harem of attractive women who have no reason to like him while they get into wacky highjinks and don't clairy the relationship until the final chapter or...
Of course things won't get better with faggots salivating at shitty MAPPA/UFO 'fight scenes' bereft of anything that can be called fight choreography. Just fuck my shit up with as much effects, iceskating, lasers as possible.
The state of anime in general is pretty dire. Moe shit, shonen shit, romcom harem shit, iseaki scourge, shitty light novel and manga adaptions, etc. I don't think I've watched more than an episode or two of a series in the last 2-3 anime seasons.
They are also bringing on the John Wick guy, Chad Stahelski, to do the fight choreography. Since John Wick, that guy and his friends have done their darnest to ensure every action movie fight feels the same. So much so that I can already picture some of the fight scenes.
Shinichirō Watanabe's new anime 'Lazarus' is set to come out soon. A bit worried about it since it's being done by the ice-skating, overworked fuckups at MAPPA.
