Trevor Belmont (voiced by Richard Armitage), Sypha Belnades (Alejandra Reynoso), and Alucard (James Callis) are back as they continue to look for a way to save humanity from Dracula (Graham McTavish) in “Castlevania” Season 2.
As the reluctant hero and last surviving member of the Belmont clan, Trevor spent most of the first season as the show’s main protagonist, but reports have revealed that Alucard and Sypha are going to get their fair share of screen time in “Castlevania” Season 2. There is some bad news, though. In his review of “Castlevania” Season 2, GameSpot’s Michael Rougeau said the three heroes aren’t going to do much in the first six episodes as they spend most of their time researching on ways to defeat Dracula. Well, that doesn’t sound exciting at all.
According to Rougeau, Dracula’s underlings are far more interesting in “Castlevania” Season 2 with Peter Stormare voicing the bloodthirsty Viking vampire Godbrand and Jaime Murray voicing the power-hungry female vampire Carmilla. Theo James and Adetokumboh M'Cormack are voicing Hector and Isaac as well, two humans who are part of Dracula’s war council.
Described as a “forge master,” Hector sure sounds like the protagonist of “Castlevania: Curse of Darkness,” so it will be interesting to see if he changes sides in “Castlevania” Season 2. Meanwhile, Isaac happens to be the main antagonist of that game.
Despite the pacing problems, “Castlevania” Season 2 sounds like it is worth a watch. Don’t forget to check it out once it comes out on Oct. 26 on Netflix.
“One thing Castlevania Season 2 definitely does have is buildup. All the intrigue and tension is leading somewhere--there's never doubt of that. By the end of the sixth episode, with just two more to go, the pieces seem to finally be falling into place. Belmont is fighting demons, Sypha is doing magic, and Dracula is--well, Dracula is still brooding, but the rest of his forces are finally at war. The action is still creatively executed, and fights look cool,” Rougeau said in his review for GameSpot.
