Uh, damn.

That looks way way way better than I was expecting.

TheGreatDirector · May 24, 2017

How many episodes are there going to be?

Creamium · May 24, 2017

Looks great and more importantly: it comes out on july 7th. We're watching this in six weeks

TheGreatDirector said:

iirc we're getting two parts, with 4 episodes in the first part

CONCH0BAR · May 24, 2017

This looks awesome. I'm so in.

TimmiT · May 24, 2017

Uploaded it to Youtube in case people are having trouble with Twitter's video player. Looks surprisingly good.

RPGCrazied · May 24, 2017

Nice. Looks cool. Glad they went with animation. Live action probably would have been to expensive and looked cheap looking.

AuthenticM · May 24, 2017

I thought they were making a live-action show.

I've heard 4 episodes of 30 minute length each, supposedly a second season is coming next year as well. Also it looks like this first season is based on Castlevania 3 judging by the characters in the trailer.

PhoncipleBone · May 24, 2017

And written by Warren Ellis? Awesome

jack_package_200 · May 24, 2017

Wow this looks incredible plus it releases so soon.

Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew · May 24, 2017

Obligatory: FucKonami.

Mathieran · May 24, 2017

That looks pretty good. The voice acting sounded a little rough though.

4???

That is not enough.

MattyG · May 24, 2017

Holy shit this actually looks really good. And so soon. Whew.

PixelatedBookake · May 24, 2017

SHUT THE FUCK UP. Warren Ellis is writing this? And the animation is good? I'm in.

Jarmel · May 24, 2017

What animation studio is doing this? It looks really good.

SargerusBR · May 24, 2017

Robert Carlyle as Dracula pls.

Ahasverus · May 24, 2017

Yas queen?

Lulubop · May 24, 2017

Yooooooooooo

Makonero · May 24, 2017

WARREN ELLIS WOOOO

looks good

this next please

Dark Ninja · May 24, 2017

The animation is 100 times better than I thought it would be. But still only looks alright especially if its only 4 30 minute episodes.

zulux21 · May 24, 2017

here's hoping this is good.
is watched by many.
and finally starts an age of adult animation with action/stories instead of just the comedy stuff we get right now.

Grizzlyjin · May 24, 2017

Looks better than I was expecting. And Warren Ellis? Okay, Netflix. You got my attention.

Always-honest · May 24, 2017

That looked pretty awesome. Will check it out.

sprsk · May 24, 2017

It's...anime????

whiteninja · May 24, 2017

Was that Grant, Sypha, and Trevor?
Glad this is animated instead of live action.

itwasTuesday · May 24, 2017

I hope it uses the games music as inspiration. Or just put Rondo's soundtrack in.

chicagocubsfan · May 24, 2017

Looks good

Frederator, they do Adventure Time

PancakeBurglar · May 24, 2017

Wait this actually looks pretty cool, will keep an eye on it.

There's an old Ellis blog post about his original script in 2007 needed three 80 minute movies. Wouldn't be surprised if S1 & S2 is based on that since he's apparently already written S2. Conspicuous absence of Grant lines up with the old script too.

Poppy · May 24, 2017

so awesome

is this about trevor? was that grant and sypha and alucard?

dan2026 · May 24, 2017

Is this the 1st American animated series for adults since Spawn?

(Non comedy I mean)

hobozero · May 24, 2017

How will Konami fuck up the good will if this is any good?

Pachniko machine?

Fury451 · May 24, 2017

This looks so good. And Warren Ellis writing is great.

Just had a new Samurai Jack season that was meant for adults.

brandonh83 · May 24, 2017

Holy shit.

This isn't being done by a Japanese animation studio? Those designs are anime as fuck. It also doesn't look like it's being done in Flash either.

SchrodingerC · May 24, 2017

Wow, this has the potential to be a great show. I'm already digging the art style and the animation looks decent.

Dabanton · May 24, 2017

Hmm looks very good and of course Warren Ellis, means it's a day one watch for me.

WordAssassin · May 24, 2017

Aw what, they left out a really cool intro sequence to the trailer. I wonder if they'll upload it later.

What made you think that? The announcement was that it's being done with Frederator Studios. Cartoon cartoon!

The animation itself isn't being done in-house at Frederator.

as someone else said we had samurai jack.
we also had Vixen.

but yeah they are few and far between and it is really dumb given how much can be done in an animated medium compared to live action.

maybe with DC starting up their own channel we will see more animated stuff aimed at adults using DC characters...

I mean I can dream right

- J - D - · May 24, 2017

Looks like anime with a budget. Like an OVA.

How do you know that?
Have you already seen it.

... yes

Froli · May 24, 2017

That looks good wow!

awilliams213 · May 24, 2017

This looks good...really good it has a Madhouse Studio look to the characters. Between this and Voltron, Netflix knows how to pick them.

BassForever · May 24, 2017

Wow I wasn't expecting much from this after the mess that is the new mega man cartoon. Holy shit day 1

Extollere · May 24, 2017

Pretty awesome. I'm in!
