At this point I feel like I myself could have done it better. This was painful.
No, I don't want to be taught about income equality and slavery. France in 1790 must speak for itself, no need to explain anything.
The amount is modern day swearing makes the dialogue not better either.
We have only a limited amount of episodes and the backstories aren't a great addition because they only influence emotions against certain villains or sympathies for the heroes. There's just a high rate of come and go of different characters in short time. Depth outside of backstories would have helped.
The powerlevel is totally confusing. At one point characters are super weak and inept and at other way overpowered. The plot armor is just cringe at some point.
It was too easy to predict outcomes aside of just introducing the next level hero or villain. We had certain tropes already in the first installment of the animated adaption. Also, I hate to see the connection of predictability and skin color - which is maybe "en vogue" but for sure not helpful for the suspense or thrill.
I also cannot explain why this is for 18+. Not even kids age 14 can be too shocked or thrilled by this show and I know because working with that age bracket is my profession, expertise and experience.
For a mature audience, expand the amount of uncertainty and drama. Nobody should be safe and have several groups playing out their schemes. The villains are just cardboards but we know well from hundreds of vampire novels that there can be so much more facets to just being "evil" and wanting to destroy humanity and or earth.
The Castlevania franchise has huge potential, but this installment was utterly dissapointing.
