One thing I find interesting about Carmilla is that despite being a ruthless, sadistic vampire who wants to enslave humanity, she's basically an agent of karma. Seriously, every single person she hurts has it coming in some way.

Carmilla was pretty much right about everything.

My favorite part was the climax of episode 6 when Sypha moves the castle and Carmilla doesn't know what the gently caress is going on and all of the carefully laid plans and intrigue on all sides collapses on our three doofus protagonists bumbling their way in. I almost wish that the season hadn't followed them up to that point, and focused entirely on the vampire court intrigue, then bust out everything falling apart, with an episode to catch up with Sypha and the boys.

Also, agreed on Godbrand being great. He's so great that it's also great when he's getting owned.

It's obvious we're not going to see EVERY Castlevaina on here, the third season might be the last in fact, but if they were smart and it seems they are: Aria and Dawn of Sorrow would be a great way to end Dracula's story properly

I might be overestimating its cultural penetration, but I think that it would be a waste to skip over Symphony of the Night. It feels, to me at least, like the one big Castlevania game besides the original that people have heard of. Plus it brings back Alucard, and everyone loves Alucard.

I actually dug the pacing in the middle. It gave room for the characters to breathe, which I feel paid off well in the climax. I do wish it was less repetitive and have some focus to the other court vamps.
