      Raouf S I think I'm not the target audience Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Isaac B This is like if the word "fantastic" and the phrase "going into college" had a baby Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/28/24 Full Review Audience Member Loved the original series, this doesn't feel so great Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/05/24 Full Review Steven S Didn't really care much for the main set of good guys aside from Richter and a family member of his who appears later on. I liked the vampires fount them very interesting especially the big boss vampire. It took me a long time to get invested in this and at points I was considering turning it off but glad I didn't. Very hyped for series 2 with how it ended, wonderful cliff hanger. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/24 Full Review Adam C Never saw the original and didn't play the game. So, thankfully, I was able to see Nocturne for what it is, objectively. It's just good TV. Loved the story, voice acting, writing, and character interactions. Very bingeable. This is a strong ‘must watch' recommendation. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/11/24 Full Review Himura K Great animation and style. I loved how good the vampires are.

      Kambole Campbell The Daily Beast Channels violence and sensuality into something a little more sensitive than its gory, sexy vampire action would first suggest. When it manages that balance, before sparking the always electrifying spectacle of its action sequences, it's euphoric. Dec 11, 2023 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News In eight briskly told animated episodes, showrunners Kevin Kolde and Clive Bradley relocate the popular vampire streaming series in the French Revolution with vampire hunter Richter Belmont taking on a nasty batch of aristocrats preying on poor people. Rated: 3/4 Oct 11, 2023 Full Review Vera Wylde Council of Geeks It's a little worse, kind of across the board. Dec 19, 2023 Full Review James Whitbrook io9.com A clever reset on its world and story brings a focus and nuance that lets Nocturne really drill in on keeping what made the original show such a surprise hit in the first place. Dec 11, 2023 Full Review Natalie Jameson Black Girl Nerds Packed with concepts that conjure a variety of twists and turns, superb animation, action-packed drama, and a cast of characters you can easily fall for, Castlevania: Nocturne is an absolute must-watch series.
