Not making fun of you at all but giving you props...

I read what you wrote twice and said to myself if Netflix bothered to check on their dates. I suggest sending Netflix and twitter message and seeing if they caught this mistake?

No worries!?Like I said, I took it as such!?

As for Twitter, I've never signed up and I never will. I try my best to avoid the hellscape that is MOST social media. *LOL* But by all means, anyone else is free to drop them a line and cite this post about their little math error!

Personally, I'm PRETTY sure that the guy who wrote the original tweet ad image . . . thing (?) was just making up stuff as they typed, i.e. "I was told 1792 French Revolution, and it's some guy named Belmont, must be their kid, right? Dur-hur!" and that's NOT actually the route they're taking with the adaptation. Assuming it's just a communication error combined with some dopewho never actually watched the show writing the press release. I HOPE, anyway!?

?? . . . Not sure if that was meant honestly or mockingly, but you know what, I'ma take it as a positive! *LOL*

For what it's worth (but also, avoiding spoilers), there obviously IS an in-universe way that Richter could still be their kid (that rhymes with "intimate toreador"), but that would be SUCH a cop-out cheap solution, and it would negate the victory at the end of the series, ANDwould specifically preclude the existence ofall the intermediate Belmonts of the game canon (particularly a little-known guy named SIMON), so I find it absurd that they'd decide to go THAT route.

So, I can only hope the Netflix Geeked OP was just plain stupid wrong about this, and it's not actually some timey-wimey bull$#!+. *sigh*

You can never put it past these kind of adaptations. Usually only loosely following the source material and making up their own things as they go.

. . . Whomever it was who wrote this press copy is a complete moron. (The OP, not the TNI poster)

The original Castlevania series says, quite specifically in the VERY FIRST EPISODE, that it takes place in 1476. (Lisa met Dracula in 1455, she was burned in 1475, and Trevor, Sypha, and Alucard killed Dracula a year later.)

If this new series takes place in 1792, during the French Revolution, there is ZERO @#$%ING WAY ON GOD'S EARTH Richter is Trevor and Sypha's son. *LMAO*

Lastly, I hope with this spin off coming some other company better than DST acquires the license and we have decent figures.

From your mouth to God's ears, a well done line of figures based on the Castlevania games would be a dream come true for me.

I overall enjoyed the castlevania netflix series. It wasnt spot on to original games stuff but it had a enough fun mix that it wasnt horrible like some other adaptations to games are.

I want to say I'm excited about them using Richter Belmont but considering their handling of the characters in the previous series I'm not holding out much hope.
