Castlevania Circle of the Moon - Final Boss + Ending

Batalla final de Circle of the Moon más el final.
Este es uno de mis Castlevanias favoritos, me encanta su ambiente medieval. La técnica que utilizo para vencer a Dracula es bastante sencilla pero efectiva, utilizando la Cruz como arma secundaria y las cartas Uranus + Thunderbird para la lluvia de truenos.

Dracula: I will never be truly gone. So long as there is darkness and desire in the soul of man. I will continue to be revived. Julius Belmont: lol

Quite possibly.

That's what you get for making the central pillar of your castle a load-bearing boss.

And for those who can't remember the quote, it is. "This castle is a creature of chaos, it may take many incarnations." -Alucard to Maria.

[@balrog13571]

Considering that it was the very first Metroidvania for GBA, I'd say it was good. In fact I'd say I liked when it comes to difficulty, atmosphere, music, and time, I'd say it was actually better than some of it's successors. It's nice not to have to worry about getting an imperfect ending just because you didn't get 100% in two different castles, the things you pick up after boss fights are all relevant, and there's actually a challenge. There were things to improve on, but it still succeeds.

[@Deltamegrez]

What a game! I played this 17 years ago, I enjoyed it very much, but my fav still is Symphony of the night and Supercastlevania IV

[@Belmont6830]

Was I the only one who noticed Chaos, on the background, watching the battle between Nathan and Dracula??

[@TheFloodFourm]

Great game until the final boss required you to either grind for levels or grind for cards.

[@laronis]

yep, exactly!

[@Maverick.D.]

The final boss is a pain in the ass.

[@Valhallen002]

Favorite video game ending. Next to Majora's Mask..

[@raphaelburnett993]

I got a secret I after you defeat Dracula first form do not go after Dracula 2nd form yet go to a save point and save by doing this should you die from Dracula 2nd form you won't have to fight his first form all over again

[@andrewmiller5126]

His first form is so easy it's not even that big a deal though.

[@ProfessorVuubik]

So basically, Dracula wanted to eat your Master's soul because he got a case of the classic Nosferatu Arthritis/Rigor Mortis, and ended up moving slower than an average computer trying to run Second life sacrificing speed for offence? Which is even more lackluster given the hyper-speed cover of Dance of Illusions for this fight? Least his second form and music felt like the kind of cumulative theme you'd hear in a choir/orchestra play, I keep thinking I'm going to hear lyrics with a chant of "proof of blood" in it or something.

[@realhayabusa9515]

first castlevania i ever beat

+Hideyuki Hayabusa its great is it not? :) i just beat it and reviewed it recently

[@RockM29]

que buen tema contra dracula en la batalla final exelente uno de los temas que mas me gustan de castlevania

[@mirahsan2]

I absolutely loved this game, perfect modern version of the old style Castlevanias. ^_^ The music, the theme, awesome. Wish there were more characters though, maybe more female characters. Can't wait for the next Castlevania game for the 3DS.

[@KAILOONE]

I honestly could never beat dracula 12 years later I rather watch the ending on youtube, btw I never liked this game that much, prefered the other 2 castlevanias on the gameboy advanced.

[@Wild_Jape]

The castle is linked to Dracula and when he's beaten the castle crumbles just like him.

[@santfrias]

Thanks. The last part of the boss was so difficult, that i didnt want to waste my time in front of a screen.

[@katobelmont]

¿Malo? no incluso es mejor que SotN, por que es mas dificil y se que muchos diran lo contrario pero ya es cuestion de gustos y los graficos son muy respetables por ser uno de los primeros juegos del GBA.

[@EddieEddieEddie90]

Deberían hacer un remake de este título...

[@alexaliota961]

Does he have xenomorphs on his legs?

[@XxAILASxX]

When i played magician mode for the first time and i defeated camilla i thought i broke the game because i was such a low level and gained so many levels as a result, probably like 8 or so before it was done XD

[@Anemite]

muy buen juego, este junto con ecclesia y Dawn of sorrow, son los unicos con los que he batallado con los jefes, y el hecho de que no haya tienda en este juego lo hace aun mas dificil, eso de estar gastando horas para tener un inventario decente es aburrido :S

[@pikhik816]

I got to the bit where he was just an eyeball, but I don't have any summons so fuck that, I'm just watching the ending instead of hitting him forever lol

[@gabrielparamorning947]

Ah, yes, thunderbird

[@nahum67]

Dracula should sue the company that build his castles, I mean every time (every 100 years) his ass is kicked... they just self destroy.

[@DGneoseeker1]

You'd think that just for once a vampire would try living in a castle NOT rigged to fall down when they die. You know, a normal castle.

[@mirahsan2]

Yeah I hope it's good. One thing though. Were would the story fit in though if there was another game from just Konami? Basically from the 1000's to 2036, there's been games for every 100 or so story years.

[@zexalsrevenge511]

I wish someone would bring Dracula’s second form from Circle of the Moon to MUGEN. I can imagine all kinds of characters fighting that atrocity. Will they succeed??

[@nobabrilg5581]

yo me atrevo a decir que es tal vez el dracula mas dificil osea en su version 1 y cuando lo juegas por primera vez ya que tiene algunos trucos que otros draculas en su fase de capa y bolas de fuego son muy simples sobre todo los murcielagos de electricidad que cuando no los conoces, practicamente de hacian decir WTF buen vid :P

[@xGunbladeKnightx]

el dracula de X juega sucio porque te hace caer de los pilares xD pero este del circle quita demasiada vida, creo que si no fuera por las cartas seria jodidisimo.

[@SaitohYatate]

When this game first came out, I always thought Rondo was the better game because it’s canon and also had this edgy “only released in Japan, whoa!” charm to it. But after growing up, I think it’s the opposite: Nathan is so overpowered using his implied alchemy with the DSS, it’s no wonder he and Shanoa are constantly excluded from the franchise. The both of them make it seem like being a clumsy and slow Belmont (except for Julius) actually sucks.

[@metalwolfzx]

the theme for his first form i can't find a video for it.

[@Nintendo122333]

+Micah S It's called Illusionary Dance or Dance of Illusions. Also, there's a guy who did an arrange who made the sound quality better. The guy's name is Jorge Fuentes, on youtube.

You've been a fan since Castlevania IV, really? Dude, i grew up with the series. i've been playing them since the very first game to come out. Ever since Symphony of the Night, most Castlevania's have been MetroidVania esque game. The series needs to head back in the direction it came from, a linear game style. I don't really care about the sword toting games, i want the whip and all its glory. The only thing it has going for it is the music, and its bland compared to the classics.
