The third season of Netflix's series appears to take a big turn towards scenes of "violent" sexuality in its most recent season, almost contrasting that of it's previous two seasons where there is minimal to no scenes of sexuality. Nonetheless, they do have significance for individual character arcs.
Is this what audiences demanded? Are audiences taking it well, or will it turn off some of its core viewers? How does Castlevania's video game community react to Season 3? And how do these scenes of sexuality change our previous understandings of characters?
This is an interesting topic to explore. This was something I also noticed when watching the 3rd season. I felt that this was a drastic shift compared to season 2. I think that we will have to season how these characters stories progress in season 4 to fully see whether these scenes were effective/necessary. Alucard's scene seem to hint at a dark road for him ahead, so we may have to wait til season 4 to see if those scenes provide to be critical. – Sean Gadus5 years ago
