@@gomezmontanojoseangel9190 For now, lookup Bloodstained: ritual of the night. That is the closest thing at least gameplay wise I have found to this castlevania instalment. Though storywise order of ecclesia is unrivalled.
@@gomezmontanojoseangel9190 Well, you got your wish. Castlevania: Dominus Collection got released yesterday on consoles and Steam, and it has Order of Ecclesia in it, as well as Portrait of Ruin, Dawn of Sorrow and Haunted Castle.
When I think about it, Shanoa is one of the really rare strong female characters in videogames. Her design is elegant and pretty, yet not overly sexualized. She is skilled at what she does and faces many emotional challenges during the events of the game, yet, she prevails, even in her darkest hour. She attempts to show emotion, even when she couldn't show any, which, ironically, makes us show emotion toward her. Her smile was perhaps the greatest reward this game could offer after all she had to go through. All those elements make me admire Shanoa and this game as a whole.
sumerian88 Damn, that's a good analysis. I'm not a major fan of Shanoa, but you hit the nail on the head for why I think that she's a good character regardless. Hey, Feminist Frequency? Here's a game you'll probably find a reason to hate, protagonist be damned.
Let us also not forget Albus. :3 He is as important as Shanoa, keeping her alive at the cost of his own; if given the chance, I think the two of them would have made a nice battle duo like Jonathan and Charlotte -- Shanoa is more melee, while Albus can cover her with his long-to-mid-range proficiency.
@@Zack-pd2km I know Dawn’s artstyle is terrible and the reason they didn’t choose the SoTN artstyle because Nintendo’s consoles are especially popular among younger gamers.
I bought this game 2 years ago, just about. Hands down my favorite castlevania, and I never realized just how good of a character shanoa is until a few months ago. Also, exams suck
0:01 triggers flashbacks of game over and hitting start as soon as you see the edge of the circle. game wasn't too hard but i certainly died alot. bring back shanoa
By far the coolest female character design in videogames. Samus was improved even further as visual goes in Metroid Dread, pretty neat stuff, but Shanoa still reigns supreme
I’m praying that when the netflix show gets deeper in seasons, they’ll animate Order of Ecclesia, this is still such an iconic Castlevania game for me and i think OoE’s story has alot of potential for a good adaption
Hopefully. OoE is weird in that it doesn't state any particular year in which it takes place, but it could certainly coexist with Trevor's time period. He could run into the Order and initially be fooled by its declared manifesto to eradicate Dracula with the power of Glyph magic, only to learn the awful truth later.
@@WhiteFangofWar I don't remember them stating a year but I'm certain it can't coexist with Trevor since the Belmont Clan doesn't exist anymore at the time OoE takes place, that's why Albus was collecting blood samples from descendants of the lost Belmont lineage. Ecclesia itself was founded (alongside other similar institutions, as stated in the game) as a way of taking on the task of dealing with Dracula, since the Belmonts weren't around anymore, and it seems they've been gone for a while before the events of OoE.
I really hope one day they re release this game or give it a remaster on modern consoles. I just want more people to experience the peak of 2D castlevania
Imagine this getting a widescreen port on the switch, that would be legendary. As well as a map editor to create custom worlds you can plop on a empty save file that's hasent been completed yet.
Order of Eccesia Really brought new life to the franchise by combining the jump inside the castle and kill dracula thing (made popular by Symphony of the Night) with the older castlevanias "stages" (Think Simon Belmont) and then a mini Castle at the end of the game. Awesome idea and i hope the next game does the same
@XAytherxRedictusX Juste from HoD was pretty frickin' awesome. He was a vampire hunter/spellcaster hybrid who basically used a series of spellbooks to run rape all over all of the bosses. Easily one of my favorite boss rush modes in a Castlevania game. Very unappreciated Belmont, probably also one of the strongest. He could equip Alucard's Twilight Cloak and these funky boots and fly all over the screen, that shit was crazy. Soma's soul collection ability was cool too.
Shanoa is probably my favorite female video game protagonist. I was a latecomer to the Castlevania games and only got to play them extensively during their Nintendo DS era. I already played the Soma Cruz games and Portrait of Ruin so I was a little wary at first when I read that the new protagonist for this is going to be a woman and her playstyle will be somewhat different from the typical male heroes that came before. When I finished the game, it instantly became my number 1 favorite of all the Castlevania games I played. Amazing animation and gameplay, compelling characters and story, and the soundtrack for this is just a masterpiece. 11/10
Seaz Master There's not really much to expand on. Shanoa's pretty damn heartbroken, Ecclesia is finished, Dracula is sealed for another fifty million years or whatever, and the village is just peachy. What else is there for Shanoa, really? Though, if Albus Mode was canon, then I can see him just running off to who knows where after shooting Dracula in the face, seeing how many more vampire asses he can kick. God damn was Albus cool.
Plus there is no space left in the Castlevania timeline to add a sequel OoE2. However we are missing a pre-circle of the moon, if it's still canon to this timeline, and a Castlevania wars or the batlle of '99! The timeline was abandoned! We are also missing a translated noble of the events of 2037 after Aria and Dawn of sorrow! That noble is in Japanese and a Japan exclusive!😔
Loved the art style, music, and gameplay. The Story had potential and interesting ideas, though it didn't do much with it. Still, I'd play this over any of the recent castlevanias we've gotten.
This was the last good Castlevania game and a very good way to end the series, Castlevania 1 on the NES was one of my first videogames ever, I grew up playing Castlevania, then lords of shadow came and ruined everything, goodbye Castlevania... you will always remain an important part of my life...
HigiCura have you heard that IGA is reviving the franchise? Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is coming in 2017. It's Castlevania but with a different name! It's all set in stone! www.kickstarter.com/projects/iga/bloodstained-ritual-of-the-night/video_share
This was a legendary opening.
Is this opening copyrighted? If not could I pick it for a uplifting trance cover ? :)
Agree. Shanoa forever
Today I watched this for the first time and instantly fell in love on first sight.
@@Dyzinel I hope you also played the game, 'cause it's damn good too.
👍👍👍👍
11 years and this intro, this music still gave me goosebumps ....
Indeed... my all time fav Castlevania.. Bloodstained and Miriam scratches that itch but Shanoa will be my true love forever..
I remember watching this opening over and over again only cuz I was obsessed with how cool and pretty the mc was
SAME!!
This game is so underrated
I really wish a remake of this game or a port with a better quality

Yeah I prefer this over the art design in DoS and PoR.
@@supremekingjaden.3096 they returned to the gothic Art style again which was Last seen in Aria of Sorrow

Albus was cool as shit and should've been in Harmony of Despair.
I love Albus and Shanoa. They are my favourite playable Castlevania characters.
Best Castlevania game intro ever.
I prefer Dawn of Sorrow's but this one's great too
@@mammothplant dawn of sorrow is shitty anime hentai style, why the hell they don't use Aria of sorrow drawing style that more aesthetic
Honestly I'd prefer Portrait of Ruin's purely because of how well animated it is, but this one is still good and nails the tone of the game
@@Zack-pd2km At least it's actually animated lol unlike this intro
@@Zack-pd2km I know Dawn’s artstyle is terrible and the reason they didn’t choose the SoTN artstyle because
Nintendo’s consoles are especially popular among younger gamers.
The last good game in the franchise... and a great one at that.
I wanna say Portrait of Ruin was last good game because of what came after...in the dark times...
Every games in this franchise are good
@@boxtank5288
Order of Ecclesia came after Portrait of Ruins.
So, no.
@@ol_fortune9474
Not really.

Fun fight /shed tear
*maniac laughing while flying through the room in a thunder sphere*
"EHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE"
Shanoa vs Barlowe
ELECTRUS!!!
my brother still quotes this
This intro is stylish as f*ck.
lol
I like that they went with a gothic painterly style again and not an anime look
This opening STILL gives me chills. One of my all-time favorites.
best intro ever and the best of it is that we got it now on ps5 with the 2 other ds games. thanks Konami
Who was here after Direct?
The last good castlevania game... miss you so much old konami
Happy she’s back!
The best intro of all castlevania games.
We are so back.
Depressing story, but the MOST epic opening of the series
0:01 Goosebumps..
Love this opening.
Shanoa rocks. Amazing character really.
I love the art style, like, the monsters are so surreal yet the characters are so realistic
still one of the greatest video game intros ever created tbh
True ❤
each time i see this intro.. makes me want to cry
+Nikki Gasai you are not alone
Stop peeling an onion.
And you will stop cry.
Oh yeah, the nostalgia is real
Same
Wutt?? Almost 10 years already?!? Still remember the day I bought this, just when the exams period was to begin. Good old times😅
I bought this game 2 years ago, just about. Hands down my favorite castlevania, and I never realized just how good of a character shanoa is until a few months ago. Also, exams suck
Criminally underrated game.
Started playing this game yesterday and it instantly had me because of this intro alone
0:01 triggers flashbacks of game over and hitting start as soon as you see the edge of the circle. game wasn't too hard but i certainly died alot.
bring back shanoa
My ultimate video game crush.. Still love you forever Shanoa...
The Most Beatiful Intro in all Franchise of Castlevania Series.
I just love how they give you that scary music and close-up to Dracula's face.
INTRO HD!!!
Si es para hacerlo
wow shadow! es bueno saber que tambien te encantan los castlevania man e igual me e encantan tus videos y tus historias de 4chan ,saludos bro.
Shadow 😳
Tío shadow? :O
Al parecer un grande sabe valorar buenos Castlevania

If its at the time when Trevor was around that could happen
Hopefully. OoE is weird in that it doesn't state any particular year in which it takes place, but it could certainly coexist with Trevor's time period. He could run into the Order and initially be fooled by its declared manifesto to eradicate Dracula with the power of Glyph magic, only to learn the awful truth later.
At least they changed the director for next season

PEAK IS NOW ON SWITCH
WHY WHY WHY....would ANYONE dislike this????
I loved all three Castlevania games released on DS!!!
First Castlevania that I played, after this became a fan
One of my favorite games I ever played truly.
I really hope one day they re release this game or give it a remaster on modern consoles.
I just want more people to experience the peak of 2D castlevania
Imagine this getting a widescreen port on the switch, that would be legendary.
As well as a map editor to create custom worlds you can plop on a empty save file that's hasent been completed yet.
doubt Konami would even dream of that, inept dumbasses
Well brother lemme tell you it's been released today on the switch
This is fucking epic.
Such a beautiful and well done Castlevania,way better than Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin in my opinion.
OoE's my second Fav. PoR's my first. Third would be a tie between DoS and SotN.
I think... I you know from somewhere...
Uandres Brito maybe. I watch many videogame channels :)
Arty23 I was talking about Barbe. But thinking well... I guess I have seen you before.
Uandres Brito Oh, I wasn't tagged, so I assumed you meant the other guy.

this is a good game.i played it,and,this opening is amazing,this is my favorite castlevania game
Dos palabras: Operación Súbita. La mejor serie Loquendo, el máximo desarrollo de NJurgen
Probably my favourite Castlevania game.
This art style fit Castlevania better than any other
Underrated comment! The art style in OoE is off the charts.
Man this trailer gives goosebumps. The game is a must play on DS! I hope they port it to the switch so we can enjoy this game in wide screen:)
god, i love Order of Ecclesia, it deserves a lot more love
You know why your here
Shanoa is one of the coolest looking characters in the series.
Albus design reminds me of Balthier from.FF12
I've played DoS way more than this one, but I love this game and think it's the best of the DS titles.
No dmg boss fights are kicking my ass though.
Mine is Portrait of Ruins, but this one comes really close.
Esto es arte se merece su remake
Es bueno ver un comentario en español xD
Pd: definitivamente o al menos un remaster o algo ya sea en switch u otras plataformas xd
Pto Konami, dónde está mi DS collection?!?!
En forma de pachinko xd
Shanoa is the ultimate goth beauty lady at its finest 😌👌
@XAytherxRedictusX Juste from HoD was pretty frickin' awesome. He was a vampire hunter/spellcaster hybrid who basically used a series of spellbooks to run rape all over all of the bosses.

Soma's soul collection ability was cool too.
Shanoa is SO BADASS! I love her so much!
I dream of making a game with a character like her lol
tfw it's been 11 years, I finally understand what nostalgia truly means.
Fantastic intro to one of the best games in the entire series.
I love this opening!
Shanoa is super cool and so is this game's environment and story and style. And the gameplay is great too.
OOE is the best DS game in my opinion.
Not only was Castlevania order of ecclesia the best game on the DS in my opinion, but a very difficult game aswell.
Hope Netflix releases a series following the events of Order of Ecclesia
How can you trust Netflix with Castlevania after what they did to it? Netflix Castlevania fans are fucking insane
maybe after nocturne
@@Unlimi-PT It was good bro.
I 1000% believe that they can make thus one better too
just finished the game and i loved it omg
This to me is the best intro of the ds era of castlevania
I still think this might be the best castlevania game. It's certainly the only one I've replayed multiple times.
The Castlevania Dominus collection has reunited us here.
This intro is just as epic as rondo of blood
i remember this from when i was maybe 6 years old,,,,.,,. can't wait to play it again one day :+)
The most gorgeous girl of Castlevania. Shanoa ❤

Shanoa is just the best female lead character of all Castlevanias ever! She is just badass!
This is my favorite castlevania intro
Tous Simplement magnifique, au passage je félicite la super qualité de capture audio vidéo
Word of advice: don't try to watch this intro when emulating the game on PC.
Why ?? Will it look really bad
Best Castlevania intro ever so far.
The best game fot NDS
one of the best for me
This or Portrait of Ruins are my favorite.
3 years after I came to correct myself. Best game for NDS.
Holy crap I love this Intro!
i need OoE 2 please

Actually that might be a good thing. Don't gut out OoE like Aria of Sorrow got.
OoE is perfect asis.

Sin duda el mejor Castlevania junto a Symphoni of The Night

How did lord of shadows ruined it? It quite looks like a great game and looking forward to play it. 😒
Dark Reaper Lords of Shadows is a mediocre game that tries too hard to rip off other games like God of War and Shadow of the Colossus.
Oh...

***** Yes, I heard :D the concept art looks great
Shanoa reminds me of Amy Lee from Evanescence
You mixed the order up.
In my eyes, Order of Ecclesia is the Best Castlevania game This side of Symphony of the Night.
When I was a child I had a crush on her😂
Man, I need to complete the rest of the castlevania games the ones that I'm missing to play this one, I really need it.
Beautifully expressive!
I think this is the BEST GAME EVER.
No u
I have no shame in saying this was my first castlevania game
@TheFunyvideos This one is ds. My bad I forgot to put it in the intro.
I'll go fix it now. Thanks.
I need a new Nintendo DS for this 2022, please Nintendo bring the old games of Nintendo
This song man 😭
I really want a remake of Order of Ecclessia 😢
Sameee
In 3D preferably
I really think that OoE is the best Castlevania in recent years. Easily fits top three Castlevania of all time along with SotN and DoS/AoS.
10/10 Intro!! 👌
i can see what the netflix series will be like when we get this
i wish netflix should make castlevania amimated series on shaona's special univerce story
