Castlevania Trailer

Castlevania looks like a winner.  We don’t have Netflix, where they have it as one of their original series.  The first part of the trailer sends you back to old school, but once the trailer hits the actual animation of the show, it’s on!  It looks like a fun ride.  It does look to be on the mature side, but aww man it looks so good.  I can see why it is so popular.  Here’s the trailer through VizMedia’s YouTube channel:
