Sypha Belnades - All Magic & Fights Scenes #1 (Castlevania)

[@redkingrauri3769]

I love especially that Sypha never has one of those moments of "Oh I forgot I could do magic!" just for the sake of being vulnerable. She always uses it in battle and uses it very effectively. Love it so much.

[@sahilhussain7328]

I love that Sypha isn't just powerful because she does a lot of damage, she's powerful because she's incredibly creative in using her pretty simple magic (technically she only controls 3 elements till the end of season 3 when she gets 1 more). She is the standard magic fighting should live up to, show that the wizard is intelligent not just through regular nerd shit but also showing that they think and fight smart.

Sypha uses magic in a way that is so rare: there’s no extra style or flare. She uses it resourcefully and with humbleness, but with an instant deathly quality. She doesn’t play with her opponent. Every spell is to end the conflict with versatility.

💯😩🤣🤣🥰

[@azazelsiad3601]

@@babyyouremyforevergirl8998 if I’m not mistaken the way magic works in Castlevania is similar to alchemy in FMA, she doesn’t generate elements more like she manipulates them, don’t get me wrong she’s clearly shooting flames from her hands but the manipulation theory could be why she never tires because she’s using elements that are already prevalent. For instance, water is almost everywhere so instead of using magic to create water, she uses magic to manipulate water that’s already there, thusly saving her strength for when she really needs it. She’s not just a deadly mage but an extremely smart fighter.

[@yokuboutozetsubou]

She is basically the Avatar, but a lot more gruesome.

[@drkmethos]

it's neat how her magic gets progressively stronger as she fights more and more. I know some people might think she's doing ridiculous stuff by s4, but it's also pretty apparent she and trevor have been fighting a crap ton of night creatures and vampires after s2, so it does make sense.

[@stefschouwenaars9562]

I also love how it's mainly her own skill that improved and not just her magic power. In s1 she mainly used big elemental walls and a few attacks. By season two she can 1v1 a vampire general in melee and in s3 she doesn't even have to use magic to block, she just dodges

[@rastiga9196]

When leveling up goes right!

[@dentinemama7439]

she is a very well written strong female character. She broke the stereotype of female mage characters would be just about healing or minor supportive roles who require constant protection from the male lead. Instead of being in the background, i think the two male leads had actually relied on her a lot in combats, especially trevor. Her fighting style were graceful yet efficient and very tactical. As well you can see character development and she got better in fights throughout the series. The most important point why i liked her so much was despite all her merits, unlike many other medias, she was not written like STRONG FEMALE right in- your- face as if you dont get what they are doing. She was simply confident in herself and was not forcing herself to proof anything. She worked very naturally as a team with the fellow characters while managing to show the audience her strong aspects. So yea, she was one of the main reasons why i was so hooked to this series.

I love how strong they made their female character. Even though she likes Trevor her whole identity and thoughts dont revolve around him like female anime characters. And she was on their level if not stronger than them. Shonen anime needs to take notes this is how you write a badass female character. And she is pretty without being overly sexualised

"I serve no demon and I do no evil!" Her voice is so adorable...

[@kaytlinjustis5643]

I love that line the most because a lot of people during that time period believed Magic itself was a root of evil. However, it is a tool, regardless of the fact it is a sentient thing or not. Sypha uses magic to protect her people, Trevor and Alucard as much as herself. It is a kind of knowledge that is similar to certain sciences, and being a scholar, Sypha would know a lot about magic and how it works. She is very creative with it and her surroundings, using everything she learns to her team's advantage!

[@srirachasauce8430]

Sypha is how I imagine a trained magic warrior would fight. Technical movement, looking for openings/weakness, and finishing them... by neutralizing, or killing with nasty intent. In my humble opinion, she's the biggest badass of the show.

[@nicholasrolo886]

She can immediately turn her defense into an offense and vice versa. Fantastic flexibility in combat

[@evilsforreals]

I love how her fighting style shifts and evolves the more she hangs out with the guys, becoming a more upfront fighter rather than the typical "in the back caster"

[@Alacaelum]

The way I see them is something like this: Sypha is the glass cannon/firepower support, she can one-shot people and can support the other two with magic if necessary, I say "glass" but she has proved to be able to take a beating so she can reliably stay on the front too and deal with threats one on one; Trevor is the disruptor rogue/trickster fighter, his whole shtick is that he has the right weapon for the job but he himself doesn't have powers, but because of that he thinks outside the box and uses strategy to confuse opponents and strike where it hurts, he can be in any position and cause mayhem; Alucard is the heavy tank/resourceful initiator, he is the only one I think that will always be in the front, he can take a beating and has an array of abilities that he can use to enter balls deep on the enemies front lines and after he does his thing both Sypha and Trevor can cause maximum destruction. My point is that alone every one of them is elite combatants that can more than hold their own, but as we see during the series when they are together the only opponents that could hold them alone and push them was Dracula, but those vampire sorcerers did get close to win, but Trevor did what he does best and allowed Sypha and Alucard room to kick ass.

And you will say "" fck this game fck pay to win " :v

[@cyfertea8707]

​@@darkfox6604not really. They specialized in certain combat that isn't always effective. For example, when they fought dracula, only Alucard is able to go toe to toe against dracula because of his vampiric abilities. When they fought the elite vampires, they literally had to switch opponents because Alucard isn't doing well against the vampire. Mage so he switched with Sypha who's expert in magic combat. During the defense of the town in season one, Trevor has no problem fighting humans but he needed Sypha's help to fight airborne demons and other demons in general since his weapons aren't meant for demonic combat, however he's still able to use resources to his side. If it's only Trevor in thag battle, he would have lost. If it's only Sypha then the town would have been overrun without Trevor's leadership.

[@pacoramon9468]

Trevor is also the group encyplopedia on how to kill vampires.

[@ressesdave2250]

When I started watching the show and she said she would incinerate Alucard. I was like "pshh I doubt she could beat him" . After watching the show I realized that wasn't an empty threat. It was a promise

[@pavladavlas]

I love how we can actually see her powers and fighting style evolve throughout the series. When we’re first introduced to her, her magic & fighting style are very basic, run-of-the-mill combat mage stuff, but as she uses her powers more, she becomes more creative and inventive in using them, like learning to use the powers of fire-breathing creatures against them, or using ice in several different ways when fighting Dracula’s generals. I also like that moving Dracula’s castle didn’t somehow make her some omnipotent hyper-battlemage, as would’ve probably happened in many other animes. Sypha and her powers really are a great portrayal of a mage and how complex magic systems should be/work.

[@g0lddustt29]
