	Media	Author	Review
		Caroline Cao SlashFilm	"A worthy heir to the Castlevania series (...) 'Castlevania" succeeds first and foremost a macabre fantasy of adrenaline-surging proportions"
		Hayden Mears IGN	"A disarmingly potent, relentlessly violent follow-up to one of the best animated video game adaptations ever"
		Charles Pulliam-Moore The Verge	"A revolutionary epic that does the franchise’s best games justice"
		Therese Lacson Collider	"[It] is largely setting the stage for more, but in spite of that, it's still giving just about everything we love about the franchise"
		Elijah Gonzalez Paste Magazine	"Through its complex cast and scorching cuts of animation, it delivers an affecting story about exercising the monsters of the past to fight for a brighter future"
		John Saavedra Den of Geek	"Satisfying, full of brutal action sequences, cool character designs and weapons, plenty of easter eggs and references to video game lore (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Daniel Kurland Bloody Disgusting	"'Castlevania: Nocturne' digs deeper and accomplishes much more than its predecessor. It doesn’t just feel like a tease, but rather the first act to a much greater war that can finally be properly tackled now (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Bradley Russell Total Film	"An inconsistent, frustrating, but ultimately entertaining affair –ending just as it hits its stride and ups the stakes considerably (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		James Beckett Anime News Network (ANN)	"Excellent story that pulls from the lore of classic Castlevania games without being afraid to go in interesting new directions, compelling and diverse cast of characters that all get great moments throughout the series, the music and visuals are as good as ever"
		Belen Edwards Mashable	"The appeal of any 'Castlevania' show's vampiric brawls isn't just in their heavily stylized violence and gore, but in how versatile and downright smart they are"
		Brittany Vincent Decider	"An exemplary way to take a popular game series and turn it into one of the most exciting animated adaptations yet"
		Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut	"With its three-dimensional characters, knotty themes of class disparity and religious corruption, kinetic battles, and macabre horrors, 'Castlevania: Nocturne' is a can't-miss show for fans of the previous series (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
