Dracula: Alone 

"You take my wife and deny I even exist!?" He tried, he truly tried. The best he could in his own way.

*"That woman...was the only reason on earth...for me to tolerate human life!"*

Lisa: *literally quoting Jesus* Bishop: yeah, she's talking to satan

"No! Please don't make him kill you all! He's come so far!" I cry when I heard the sheet desperation and panic in her voice, knowing all that would be to come

In my opinion Dracula’s story is a Shakespearean tragedy. An introvert that only wanted to live his life in peace with his family, but the actions of the outside world looking for trouble decided to shatter what life he had and take everything away from him. His wife, burnt without being able to say goodbye a final time, and his son having to proclaim to kill him due conflicting ideologies. I swear, when a show creates a villain as amazing and sympathetic as Dracula, it becomes a masterpiece, and this AMV captures this perfectly.

“THERE ARE NO INNOCENTS!…not anymore..” Some will sacrifice all for the world, while few will sacrifice the entire world for one. Powerful words.

A man with nothing to lose is truly dangerous. The voice acting is incredible. "I was traveling, like men do. No more." You can hear the true despair and regret in his voice. I wish they would have made another season.

*An undead monster... claiming that he must already be dead after almost killing his son. That is really deep.*

The best version of Dracula. They perfected the balance of monstrosity and humanity. They explored his philosophical traits and intellect. They gave him a heart without taking away his power. They kept his traditional Dracula-esque design while implementing practicality so he could fight. They cast a brilliant voice actor to make him sound like a king, a husband, a father, and a broken monster. This version of Dracula is my absolute favorite. Best one I’ve seen yet.

This version of dracula is fucking badass while being sad too, truly one of the best vampire king we’ve had in cinema

In the end Dracula got his happy ending with his one true love.

Alucard really told him in the end that he was writing the world's longest suicide letter. That resonated with me with how much grief and rage blinded him and then he realized in the end it all lead to him killing the one thing, the one gift, the greatest piece of love she could ever give him. Then that one thing killed him. There's true tragedy in that.

To quote one of my personal favorite writers of one of my other most loved animes of all time “Hate is a place where a man who can’t stand sadness goes…..” -Kentaro Miura

Netflix Castlevania is a masterpiece. One of the best animated shows there it. Truly a work of art and passion, through and through. And this amv, my friend...was the icing on the cake.

Honestly this depiction (although it's played at loosely in the games) breaks my fucking heart. Most vampire fiction depicts them as just not giving a shit, we are cattle for their ranch. Dracula tried, not only that he genuinely LOVED her. Not in a sappy rom-com sense, he adored Lisa. She wasn't just some witch/wannabe snake-oil type, she honestly wanted knowledge for the sake of furthering Mankind. She wanted to help people and her convictions not only would have brought about a revolution in human history, It would have given vampires a reason to pause and reconsider human life. I'm reminded of a 'villain' group I made for a D&D group (I world-build here and there) That on the surface were depicted as feasting on their servants and enthralling villages. The party descended on the vampire family and were about to raze their estate to the ground when they were faced with a moral quandry: The villagers showed up not with pitchforks and torches but with basically whatever trophies and trinkets they could spare, begging and pleading for their master's lives if they would take them, leave and never return. Yes, they are vampires, and they did indeed feed on the villagers. Unfortunately (but very *very* rarely) sometimes people died when their masters fed. However these weren't creatures of the night that preyed on the weak. They were nobles, in fact under their careful eye the lands these villagers worked had seen a golden age of peace. Bandits were practically non-existent, because the few fools that DID show up and harassed their subjects were torn apart, the subject of the family letting loose and venting their deepest needs to feed on those who would dare harm their subjects. Monsters of the worst sort were compelled to leave their land via either direct mind magic or unnatural auras the family gave off scaring them away. When their masters *did* feed on the working class, those that were drained were given time away from their labors and extra rations to recover and rest, they had paid their tithe with their literal blood. In return, the villagers were expected to give enough to pay the lord's taxes and little else. They had no need for gold, in fact many of the noble family took great delight in hunts (akin to medieval European nobility) not just for entertainment but to ensure their villagers had plenty to eat to recover when their own needs came.

Tbh, this is arguably the best rendition of the Dracula story ever told.

Graham Mactavish absolutely took the character of Vlad Dracula Tepes to another plane of existence. Beyond this world. It is by far and wide my absolute favorite casting and performance in any animation. Anima or otherwise. I am so upset there won't be more..

Even in the end Dracula was attached to some of the humans... He truly thought of Isaac as his friend, that's wholesome..

I absolutely love how you captured his character it was brilliantly done. His story is my favourite part of this series and really loved how you combined her pleas for him to spare them as you have scenes of him killing eveything that was genius also like the music worked very nicely with the show. This was definitely unexpected I'm glad you enjoyed that show definitely up there as one of my favourites so this masterpiece was incredible.💙

This series is amazing. I was wary at first because I grew up with Castlevania but man...this series won me over with the dialogue alone. The creators of this show knocked it out of the park. The way they did Dracula was glorious, you both fear him yet sympathize with him. And yes he hated all of humanity at that time but; he also spared a few who he saw the good in. Issac, and Hector as examples, along with the old lady at the beginning. I mean he could have let Issac get killed cuz you KNOW he'd go down fighting to protect Draula, hence why he got him out of there, he didnt want another who he considered good to die because of being affiliated with him.

"This entire catastrophe has been nothing but histories longest suicide note." So true.

"Я убиваю нашего сына. Твой лучший подарок мне... Должно быть, я уже мертв" разорвало мне душу

The voice acting behind vlad was simply beyond phenomenal

"Castlevania" is the best dracula story i have ever seen. Which involves all factors a story should have magic, love, tragedy, hate, action, thriller, etc. anime lover should watch this... ❤️

the voice actor for dracula. so much emotion, so much pain, so much hurt.

“This entire catastrophe has been nothing but history’s longest suicide note”

O God, thank you for it! my favourite part of it was this one: "This entire catastrophe been nothing than a history longest suicide note"

"I must already be died" -Best Dracula ever... 🥺🥺❤❤

I have many problems with Castlevania, especially season three and four. But there are some things I have to praise or give credit to. The voice acting is one of them and Dracula is the stand out, he has a truly intimidating and commanding tone, while he's not my favorite Dracula voice (that goes to the English dub of Hellsing) he nails it with the emotion. The rage, the despair, the emptiness, the tiredness which comes from depression but when he needs to be intimidating he can do it very well. Second is Dracula as a character, while Trevor, sypha and Alucard may be cool, it's Dracula who is the true main character and who gets some of the best scenes in the series, he has the most depth. He's a fantastic dracula. There are some really great details with him, a personal favorite is his eyes, the animators really nailed the emptiness that comes from just giving up on everything and sinking into depression, the way he looks past people even while talking to them, the way he flares to life during stuff like threatening Godbrand or meeting Trevor. The series made a fantastic Dracula and killed him far to early.

The VAs for this show did such an amazing job making this an immersive, emotional, badass experience.

Am I the only one who loves Dracula’s voice? Jesus guys thank you for the likes😂

This version of Dracula is one of the best ever

Best tribute to dracula

I think adding the scene where he talks about Alucard as his wife's greatest gift to him would've been an excellent addition to this. It showed that he finally acknowledged how far he had fallen, there he was killing his only son the only thing left of her. All around though this was difficult to get through without getting emotional, great work.

chills at 3:18 , every time. syncing up alucard's statement, along with the swelling instrumental.... so, so good.

Appreciate the time you put into making these videos their amazing

I am baffled. This is like blasting all my emotions from Castlevania rapid fire. This video deserves way more attention

Castlevania is honestly the best animated series from a western studio Netflix killed this

Netflix Castlevania is a masterpiece. This video is a masterpiece

I love the sound of his voice when he said "there are no innocents, not anymore" and also when he said "no, we will not act like animals"

"there are no innocent not anymore!" so sad

The characters in this show who say Dracula's gone mad, chiefly Isaac and Carmilla, are the ones who've never known true love in their lives. Dracula was never insane, only a man who'd lost everything. To some there's no difference, but those who think that are those who will never understand what it means to care about someone more than you do yourself, and the depths of despair that even the greatest among us can sink to when that someone is taken from them. The one exception among them is Alucard, but even then he couldn't have known the full story or understood the full extent of what his mother meant to his father.

He is the literal reason i began watching this series , best version of Dracula in media

People assume this anime as a revenge story.... But from its bottom it is purely a love story.... Man... If anyone is thinking of starting it... Man, don't wait and don't stop until it ends.... It is one of the best anime which was able to persuaded me to believe that even Dracula can be beautiful and loving...🥺🥺🥺 Love it man... ❤❤❤❤

The best castlevania amv out there

The way you overlapped the quotes and scenes and combined them with the music beats really made this video a work of art. Glad my algorithm stumbled upon it, he was my favorite characterization of Dracula and the best part of the series as far as antagonists go, thank you for posting it!

So many people forget that Dracula is at its core a love story and its breaks my heart

the sailor is so cool. "That don't sound like someone who wants to kill all the people of the earth."

"This entire catastrophe has been nothing but history's longest suicide note" - this is soo sad and painful . You created an amazing video that describe Castelvia soo well ❤️❤️❤️

The writing on his character is just incredible. Absolute tragedy and it is HARD to not support him lol

She was the one thread that tethered his tolerance for humans and they had to pull it apart. 🤦‍♀️😔❤

This edit is literally perfect. Thanks for showing this beautiful show and misunderstood character the love they truly deserve 🖤

The best part is the fact that despite being starving, depressed, and at his weakest point. He literally bodied the three heroes, he died because he gave up. And Carmilla wanted to fight him?

One of the best Animes I've ever watched in my opinion. Underrated.

started to watch it since season 2 dropped and rewatched it all twice by now. watching reactions of it these days. and recently, even watched a analyze video about Dracula. still this summed up the character and show pretty well thanks for quality content. keep up the good work. wish you wellwatche

Something I noticed. Most of Dracula's scenes are drawn in an angle that make him as if he looks down, either he is joyouss, angry or depressed/ sad. Nice little detail if that's what they wanted to accomplice

I must already be dead... That line made me cry after 7 years.

I’ve only ever watched one episode of this show but I still clicked on the video and whilst watching it all I could think was how well edited it was .then it ended and a saw it was a dadyeagen vid so then it made so much sense lol .(why it was so good I mean )

I AM VLAD DRACULA TEPES, AND I HAVE HAD ENOUGH! Amazing voice actor!

I’m hyped for the new stuff with Richter, but I wonder how they’re gonna tie Dracula in. Castlevania without Dracula is…hard to accept, and yet they ended his story in the perfect way. I’m cautiously optimistic for the future of this series, but Dracula in particular worries me. Like, I want more of him, but unless it’s a prequel I don’t see how they can justify making him the antagonist again. Great video though, he was absolutely the best character in the first series and seeing him was always a treat, this was a brilliant little summary of his arc.

"They Killed my Wife" the sorrow in his voice... It's really sad because i really tired.. he really tried his best..

i find myself coming back to this edit from time to time. it's really something. a damn good edit

Bro that piano jumped in the middle and it brought instant tears to my eyes

Honestly best representation of Dracula I've seen ever

I feel for Dracula. He really had lost his mind. But love can drive you insane. Especially if it's true

We are all rooting for you Dracula.

Just found this, amazing, truly a work of art. makes me want to watch the series all over again.

Still watch these now and then. You did an incredible job

Btw, that's one of the greatest portraits I've ever seen of the Dracula and his family

Now I just want re-binge the whole series again incredible video chef kiss.❤️❤️🤩🤩

"I'm tired, Isaac." The pain in his voice broke me

i enjoyed this series so much, love the ending even if it makes no sense

"Be better than them, please" Oh to be so kind as to shield your attackers, even in death.

"Kill for my love, kill for the only true love I'll ever know." im in tears

I just found this and holy shit this is incredible. I’ve watched it twice already and you really… just show the sheer tragedy of him snapping after she died. I love how he goes from being angry and murderous to sad, but still angry, to everyone around him realizing he died when Lisa did. I feel like I’m not doing a good enough description but seriously… You show how they first met, and how he could have been if she hadn’t died. You blended everything together seamlessly. The voiceovers and music fit perfectly, and this feels like a trailer while it’s also a video of his tragedy. Gosh, Lisa pleading with him to better than them when he’s beating his son to an inch of his life. And it ending with him saying that he wasn’t going to get better without her. 😭😭😭 I love this so much.

I connected with Dracula so much. I think his madness was justified.

The world shall know pain.

Nice video. And Dracula are right, Humans are a Curse on our Earth!

Great job, it turned out to be a perfect video, very emotional and dramatic. Bravo!

what i like abt this is that dracs wife warned them and they didnt listen 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂they brought this on themselves

"He believes that he fell in love with a human woman." That, is an underrated line.

This would have been a good introduction to the Netflix I’d watch it if I saw this on Netflix

you captured him and why i love him as a character so so well

Such an underrated voice actor. The first time i heard his work was in Dante's Inferno and the raw emotion he conveyed through his voice was mesmerizing. When I found out he was going to be the voice of Dracula I had high hopes and wasn't disappointed in the slightest. Graham Mactavish is an unsung legend in the business.

After this edit i watch all season of castlevania 😁 awesome edit leads you to watch whole season 😌

"You are the greatest of your people, Isaac". That was some foreshadowing whether it was intended or not.

"i traveled like a man. Slowly. No more" the hardest line in the show

The best part about this. About him. The heroes didn’t *beat him* they didn’t *win* Not only that. But that? The man the power trio fought *tooth and nail* just to stay his hand, his nails his fangs from their throat? Was but a *shell* of his former self. A fraction of his power…

This was a such good series. Love to see they coming with a new series.

I don't want for dracula to be alone, hope he finds something and be happy :D

this is the best of the best edit i have ever seen

I could watch this a hundred times over and over and I won't get bored or tired at all

I never comment or like videos, but this was so expertly done with such great source material, have my like and comment.

First view.. being alone... watching This alone

The Show is a 10/10 cant wait for season 2

Jeez I've been watching your content and WOW!!!😍 You're amazing on how you bring so much detail and life to your work. Who would have thought that different clips with the actual audio would make something so unique and epic💗 I'm definitely one of your newest fans here. This is incredible along with your other videos you know how to mix everything so well my friend 🥰

*dracula is too op bro*

"It endures in the name of your mother" I sympathized with Dracula even more when he said that line.

It was painful to hear Alucard say "You died when my mother died. You know you did". He lost both of his parents in one nigth, one to humans' cruelty and the other to his madness😢

"Anyone of them could of stood up and said no, we won't behave like animals anymore." As his son, Alucard stands there saying no... this story is such a tragedy
