Castlevania: Nocturne (2023)
So far "Nocturne" is worse than the first series, but still has its' moments
As of season 1, Castlevania: Nocturne seems to be less exciting than its' predecessor in terms of narrative. Everything from the characters to the plot itself feels very rushed, unengaging and unoriginal. However, I can't deny that this setting and characters still has a lot of potential. A lot can be done with the ideas presented in this show and I hope that the writers will try better with the next season.
As for the animation itself, I feel that it's pretty much just as good as in the first series. The fights are creative, rapid and very fun to watch. The character designs and backgrounds are just as pretty.
So far, Nocturne is just a decent action flick with a painfully generic story. I genuinely hope that the writing will get better in the next season, so that it could live up to the impressive work of the animators.
