Konami Kukeiha Club - Simon's Theme

[@TheWizaard]

YES. I have been questing for this for 20 years. Lost this on an old hard drive long ago. Oh my napster days.

[@-Ryu]

This feels like Richter telling Maria a story of a previous Belmont who is said to have Defeated Dracula in one night, Resurrected him, and Defeated him once more...

[@shaldlay2478]

Simon literally killed the prince of darkness in 2 hours on the same night he was resurrected. A couple years later man woke up and said “I’ll fuck’n do it again”

[@educationiskey3331]

Haha yeah

[@josuearos3650]

I imagine something like this: Richter: Maria, there's something I need to tell you. It's about my ancestor, Simon Belmont. *Song starts to play* Maria: Richter, what about him? Richter: He was a legendary vampire hunter, like me. He faced Dracula and defeated him, but not without sacrifice. Maria: Sacrifice? What happened? Richter: On the same day Dracula rose from the grave, Simon confronted him. It was a battle that took place through time, one that cost him dearly. But he never faltered in his duty as a Belmont. Maria: Wow, that's incredible. So, what does that mean for us? Richter: It means that as descendant of the Belmont clan, I carry on his legacy. I inherit the responsibility to stand against evil, just as Simon did. Maria: I understand. We must honor his memory and continue the fight. Richter: Exactly. We may face challenges and dangers beyond imagining, but with our strength and the courage in our hearts, we will prevail. Maria: Thank you for sharing that with me, Richter. I feel even more determined now. Richter: Together, Maria, we will face whatever darkness may come. As a Belmont, it's my destiny. I need to touch grass xd.

[@-Ryu]

*Dracula is heard laughing as Richter Struggles to stand, badly injured.* Richter: *Closes Eyes* I...can't stop Him. Despite the Whip I hold, I cannot defeat Dracula... ???: Yes, you can...It is in your blood, My Descendant. Richter: ? You....are you... Spirit of Simon Belmont: it is not the whip that defeats Dracula, Richter. It is the man. Prove that You can defeat Dracula, not with your Whip, but with the blood that flows through you! Let it heat up and strike with the Grand Cross! Richter: *Opens Eyes* Hmph...GRAND CROSS!!!! *Flashes of Light Blaze past the Screen* *Dracula's True Form Screeches, and then burns* Dracula: NO! THIS CANNOT BE! AAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!!!!

[@Pedro_Martinss._]

Blending Fire would look better in place of Grand Cross

[@kingbash6466]

Bro decided to come in and type up the most fire dialogue for a Castlevania scene, refused to elaborate, and left without a trace.

[@RockyVegaTV]

Best version IMO. That flute is just so lush.

[@calance3488]

This is like the Toto's Africa version of Simon's themes

[@e.miller5419]

I was just thinking this lol 😂

[@thomdraconix]

Putain mais mec j'y ai pensé car j'ai découvert ce morceau dans le fan-game (qui marche très mal d'ailleurs) Castlevania Bloodstorm lmao Je vais montrer ça a mon père qui est fan de Toto il va halluciner XD

[@aileasm115]

"I bless the raaaains down in Traaansylvaaaniaaa..." *HYDRO STORM is heard in the background*

[@retro3188]

I love this song, especially the fanfare-esque intro.

[@guillermocalvillo4915]

1:00 Best Part 🔥

[@Ro-vk8zw]

I was looking for this version of Simon´s theme. Thank you!

[@eclectic_echoes]

Estan locos!! , ¿esos contratiempos y arreglos qué?, que hermoso arreglo

[@kirbaran2039]

If Simon was the first Belmont to ever confront Dracula, Leon wouldn't exist. Which isn't really a big deal, as no one cares about any Belmont before Simon...

Castlevania as a 1980's urban fantasy action flick

[@SteffyCush]

this is awesum

[@valiantcorgi5162]

Why does this sound like it's spliced with Panzer Dragoon ost.

Officials Song Name: Dance of the Holy Man

[@gaming1zanagi-1999]

Kind of sad that they didn't use this ost in the Dracula X chronicles series or even the original chi no rondo there since in that game you can unlock both SoTN and the original games

[@CyberDragon10K]

... *No.* The Japanese from the OST tracklist is written as "シモンのテーマ(Block 8 BGM)" with the Japanese bit being spoken "Shimon no tēma" or _Simon's Theme._ But please do tell me where Dance of the Holy Man comes from. It's about as insufferable as "Nightmare of the Cursed Ones" for Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon...

[@HsienKoMeiLingFormerYANG]

@@CyberDragon10K There no Simon. It take places after him.

[@CyberDragon10K]

@@HsienKoMeiLingFormerYANG *What?* I'm talking about the song in the video. You call it "Dance of the Holy Man". _Why_ do you call it Dance of the Holy Man? It has _never_ been called Dance of the Holy Man in _any_ official media source. It has always been either _Simon Belmont's Theme_ or _Simon's Theme_ written out in Japanese. Because that's the song's name.

[@HsienKoMeiLingFormerYANG]

@@CyberDragon10K Nope. It all way is.

[@mariedulacq6641]

I imagine the solitary belmont whitout girlfriend

[@selectionforsocietalsanity]

He has a girlfriend. In Haunted Castle, Simon's motivation for fighting Dracula is that Dracula kidnapped his bride.
