@Vxpiriax shut your fucking mouth if you think your such a castlevania fan how could you not understand who I was talking about anyway? dont be such a fucking critic towards everying that is pointless to critique against, ya sad motherfucking wannabe
@ahmedp800 i love the ds castlevanias and was so hyped for this release i actually got it imported from the US as the UK release was way to long to wait but i was kinda disappointing with this one i think i didn't like the fact it wasn't all in one big castle. still im not hating and i will buy any other future castlevania release i think im going to dig out Portrait of ruin but i should really play through Symothony OTN first as i bought it for ps1 over a year ago and aint played it yet lol
While it was a nicly artistic style... and an EPIC theme tune, I miss the fact that the first two DS outings had an amazing Animated Opening... like you'd wanna see out of a Castlevania cartoon series!
@NYhippie543 Masaki Hirooka is a Japanese illustrator best known for his work on Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. Hirooka was brought on board after the more traditional anime stylings of Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin were ill-recieved by fans.
Video game Masaki Hirooka has worked on: ■ Suikoden Tierkreis (Konami, 2009)
Huge amounts of respect to Shanoa after beating this game. First girl to truly kick some ass in the series since Sonia Belmont-puts her right up there with the rest of the Belmont boys.
I think this one is my favorite of the three Castlevania games for DS. I thought the story was the best and the ditching of the anime style and silliness for a darker tone was a smart move.
Obviously props for Symphony of the Night to of course mind you. (The original and still compares very well to the newer ones.) And I do like Circle of the Moon as well.
Ecclesia was a little better then Harmony of Dissonance, but ultimately it just wasn't as much fun to me as many of the other Castletroids. So I'd hope if there are future ones they go back more to the old system.
This intro--and the art style they used for Order of Ecclesia in general, really--really strikes me as what Castlevania should look and feel like. Over nine thousand times better than the stereotypical anime style they went with in Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin, in my humblest opinion.
This is the only new Castlevania since the Super Castlevania 4 that I've enjoyed more than SC4.
For the simple reason; it was new and refreshing. All the other Castlevania games have a Simon Belmont/Richter (spelling?) rip-off and some sort of a spell-caster.
I loved the whole Glyph thing. It was pretty new.
Although I didn't play all the Castlevania games though...I have yet to play Dawn of Sorrow.
@XAytherxRedictusX Juste from HoD was pretty frickin' awesome. He was a vampire hunter/spellcaster hybrid who basically used a series of spellbooks to run rape all over all of the bosses. Easily one of my favorite boss rush modes in a Castlevania game. Very unappreciated Belmont, probably also one of the strongest. He could equip Alucard's Twilight Cloak and these funky boots and fly all over the screen, that shit was crazy.
@professionalpoliwag I thought DoS was okay. I loved that Soma turned evil and Alucard, Yoko and Julius had to beat his ass. The final fight was hard!!! But it was worth it to hear Soma/Dracula's evil laugh. Then seeing the trio watch the castle crumble was awesome. I can't wait for the next game in the storyline to see if they follow up on evil Soma.
@RedQueeney but soma not evil anymore all the darkness in him is gone, the thing that will most likey happen if you beat the game and got the true-ending, alucard might become the next dark lord.
@professionalpoliwag In Harmony of Despair Soma gets a rocket launcher. That shit is so cheap in versus mode, but zomg is it ever good in co-op boss battle mode.
Order of Eccesia Really brought new life to the franchise by combining the jump inside the castle and kill dracula thing (made popular by Symphony of the Night) with the older castlevanias "stages" (Think Simon Belmont) and then a mini Castle at the end of the game. Awesome idea and i hope the next game does the same
@professionalpoliwag You know it! 3D Castlevania's gonna be the shit. they should throw in a multiplayer mode like the xbox game thats separate from the story. Or just port that Xbox Castlevania in there too!
Who else thinks Shanoa looks like Ruby from Rosario Vampire. Like Ruby doesn't look exactly like Shanoa(Shanoa is better), but just a little bit like her.
It's so beautiful, I wish I knew how to do stuff like this.

I really like the look and sound of this game, but gameplay wise I unfortunately found it one of the less satisfying castletroids.
Aria of Sorrow (not Dawn, because of that annoying Boss Seal thing.) and Portrait of Ruin are my favourite Castletroids.
