Castlevania Dracula vs merchants Season 2 Episode 5

You don't need a job to pay bills if you're too immortal for bills!

If I'm not mistaken I believe this segment is inspired by the real Vlad III Tepes "Dracula", who in a fit of rage at the merchants of a town called Brasov, killed 40 merchants and several other members of the town for defying him, impaling many on stakes, hence his moniker "the Impaler" amidst other instances where he did that

'There are no innocents, not anymore' - Dracula

[@mediademon90]

As he said, He saw it only to harm does that disrespected him and whenever it was a verbal or in other matter like trying to fool him with poor trading. As he planned it out before hand how to deal with the merchant. He might seen the merchant doesn't care about his beloved child or wife and thus not going after them. It might been total different if the merchant loved his child and wife by not going for the values and sending them first out to die. Dracula might killed everyone except the merchant if he had truly loved them by taking everything he hold dear.

The most criminal thing about this show is that they never gave him a worthy opponent to fight at full strength. God I wish he would’ve come back sooner in S4 and fucked up Carmilla’s little empire.

I think the point was that there WAS no worthy opponent for Dracula. Not Death, Not Camilla, and not even Alucard,Sypha and Trevor. The only reason why he was defeated was because he LET Alucard kill him when he realized how far he was gone. How can you challenge an opponent that is weakened, depressed, Is in opposition with practically the whole world, distrusted by most of his generals and is STILL is a near unstoppable threat?

Vlad the Impaler did NOT, in fact, inspire Dracula. It's a common misconception borne of the fact the Count used the patronymic that Vlad the Impaler used; the reason for his doing so was because Bram Stoker read the name "Dracula" in a biased and inaccurate book about the history of Romania, thought it sounded cool, and used it in place of the name he was originally using for his vampire count: "Count Wampyr."

Vampire's are not supposed to be weak to sunlight, but the modern mythology thanks to the first successful films made that the new lore.

[@thesaviorofsouls5210]

It wasnt so much the person that killed her that was the issue, it was the fact that everyone stood by and watched even cheered while they were burning an innocent woman that just wanted the best for humanity. Which kinda proved him right in a sense to think humans are a pest, which needed to be exterminated. But i think over time he saw that some humans were redeemable, just like his wife. But just because there are a couple cute rats, that doesnt mean the vermin as a whole shouldnt be eradicated. But by this time he just was sad and didnt care anymore, lost his passion for it. So he just kinda followed the loose plan but didnt care anymore.

[@Ramzblood]

he should just found another wife. trust in the variables

[@2yoyoyo1Unplugged]

See, THIS I can get behind, even if it is admittedly gruesome and still evil. He was disrespected by 40 men, so he killed _those 40._ Not their wives, nor their children, just them. It sends the message that you do not fuck with Dracula, because it is tantamount to suicide. He commands respect, but there is no sense that he is going around oppressing people. If anything, his castle was a sort of haven for the oppressed and weird, given that they were open to the dark arts and had talent. People would keep being stupid enough to march up to his castle and challenge him like they were some big hero, so onto the pikes they went. Don't jump into the death trap and lo and behold, you won't die!

[@TimberlakeTigerGirl]

Maybe so but even just killing them without warning creates problems. Imagine one of the merchants sons or daughters have no idea that their father was up to some dirty business. All they know is that a monster took their father away and brutally murdered him. What do you think will sit in the back of the child's mind especially as they get older? They'll want justice/revenge and so start a Belmont like family tradition where each descendant has to try to find Dracula and kill him. Imagine if the one who ratted Lisa to the church was in fact a descendant of one of those men. And they figured having her killed in a horrible way (burned at the stake) would be their way of getting revenge. By making Dracula feel the pain their family felt when he killed their family patriarch at the time? Whether they anticipated him going crazy and murdering everyone is beside the point. Hatred only breeds more hatred and the cycle has to stop somewhere.

[@DvornyashkaDiaries]

@@TimberlakeTigerGirl It would be fine if Dracula kept an iron fist over this kingdom instead of retreating into his castle and living like an antisocial hermit. He could've being a philosopher king, an attentive God, who will not tolerate any disobedience, but essentially brings prosperity, meaning and enlightenment. A lot of things wouldn't have happen if Dracula paid more attention to the outside world instead of solely focusing on his feelings. Violence is too, an essential tool to someone who wields a power, one can simply fail to utilize it correctly. Wrongly used violence creates cycle of violence. Wisely and coldly wielded one ends it
