    Happy Halloween, everyone! I figured that for my next compilation, I'd try putting together the different versions of the opening for the Darkstalkers OVA (aka Night Warriors Darkstalkers Revenge, aka Vampire in Japan), since even though it's only 4 episodes long, each episode has a different narration accompanying it, plus the animation and music for the fourth episode's intro is entirely different. Regardless, I hope I did a decent job editing this, for I really wanted to do my part to give tribute to this charming series. So please...accept my invitation. Come...and embrace the dark!

    At 2:00: "They say this world was created by the light. What was it then that caused the dark to be created?"
    That is a very thought-provoking question. However, how can light exist without darkness? And how can we have a day without a night? And how can there be righteousness without sin?

    While I did enjoy this OVA series, I was still bummed that not only were Anakaris, Rikuo, Sasquatch and Victor were relegated to only appearing in the openings but also in the last episode, they only show up just to be killed by Pyron to show what a huge threat he was.

    That description is 100% accurate. Makes you think about the current state of Capcom doesn't it.
    On a much lighter note, I loved this OVA, but a huge flaw was the absence of Rikuo, Anakaris, Sasquatch, and Victor. Those characters deserve the spotlight just as much as the other half of the cast. Seeing Rikuo's Gem's Anger or Tounge Lash attacks would certainly be a sight to behold. Ugh, all the characters have such beautifully crafted attacks, I probably shouldn't worry about what they would look like in Madhouse style... Thanks for putting this together though, Darkstalkers will continue to live on in the hearts of it's fans!

    • @LinkSeasonMaster
      @LinkSeasonMaster  2 роки тому +6

      They've been getting a BIT better with things such as Devil May Cry 5, but there's a reason they keep getting spotlighted on Matt McMuscles' channel.
      The OVA is far from perfect, but dang if it isn't fun! Invitation to the Charm of Darkness and Trouble Man are just great pieces of music, the art style is so fitting, the characters who do appear are an utter delight, and the fight scenes are super enjoyable to watch! Not only would I love to see these characters brought to life Madhouse or other top notch animation studios, Jedah's attacks in MvC Infinite (actually, Jedah as a whole in that game is a delight, and one of the few things I enjoyed about. I mean, his characterization, the way his attacks were translated into 3D, and the fact that they got Pyron's VA from the OVA to voice him in said game shows that at least someone who worked on it truly cares about the franchise) and the Darkstalkers Are Not Dead trailer SHOWS this quirky cast can make the jump to 3D if Capcom would actually give it a shot. But nope, they decided to deem Resurrection a failure without offering any evidence to back said claim up. I actually wrote up a whole spiel on the matter a few years ago and posted it on a few different sites, but I've been debated whether to do a reading of that or a free verse poem I wrote about Darkstalkers for this year's Halloween and which to save for next year's.
      I do agree completely about the absence of Rikuo, Anakaris, Sasquatch, and Victor. And it looks I've found a fellow Rikuo fan! Awesome!
      It was my pleasure! Let's all keep doing our part to keep this series alive, even if it's just in the hearts of the fans!

I mean, they bow and wear uniforms at school, and have trains that arrive within a few seconds of when they are supposed to, and you get one picture of them -- then you see an intro that features blood, doll decapitations and an evil voice saying: "This world seems drunk on the elixir of madness!"

      @@SIGNOR-G I've read about him. He had a point, for sure. But I must say, in my opinion, this conflict between contrasting social vibes has been going on in many societies ever since the dawn of civilization. I've even thought (thus far, only in my head) of writing a book on it someday, to be called "The Longest War." It's basically a battle over who is to be society's heroes. It's the merchants, the palace courtiers, men of the togas and bath houses, etc. and many women, whom I call as a class the "effetes," vs those whom I call the "warriors and their women." In ancient times I suppose it was no contest. The heroes in all the old books and legends were warriors, mostly. And when push came to shove they could violently suppress any effete challengers. But even in the legends there were clever tricksters. And as far back as Sumeria power often shifted to those with manicured nails -- people who labored over clay tablets instead of smithy fires. I get the sense that, nowadays, the effetes can finally see the day dawning when they will gain permanent control. During WWII the warriors still ruled, but... their numbers are fewer than ever, relatively. And behind the scenes the effetes were busy. With each passing year, the warriors and their women have been ever more constrained by red tape and demasculating social imagery. The role of women, as women, has also been savaged. It's kind of a myth that at heart the effetes are more gentle. They simply wield power of a different kind. And they have not forgotten their long years in the shadows -- their humiliation. I'd say that their ultimate dream is not to rule unchallenged, with the warriors and their women as drudges and slaves, but to rule alone, over a land filled with their own kind exclusively.
      Anyway, that's how I see it. 🙂
