CASTLEVANIA: comic sample
 

Thanks to Xcedo for this cute comic he sent me ^.^

It's like the prelude of the game. It relates what happened between all CV: COD characters, and how Hector ended up in the entrance of the old castle. The art is awesome, another perfect work of Kojima *cries*... she is so good in what she does. Anyway, I scanned the book and added some comments about each set of pages. My Japanese is not good, and the explanation is based on what Xcedo told me and the few kanji I Understand/recognize... *shrugs* Now, enjoy the scans... *winks*

CASTLEVANIA: curse of darkness comic

Here's Hector being tormented by his inner thoughts and this little demon. I love the expressions Kojima puts in the characters, they're so into their feelings.
*smiles* Now here's Isaac, with his sharp tongue, trying to make Hector doubt his decisions.
A flash back when both forgemasters accepted to serve Dracula.
This is when Hector regretted his decision (of practicing the forgery). On the other hand, Isaac is just praising him.
As a result, He leaves the Castle, Betraying Dracula. Isaac feels the same way too. So he promises his master to bring Hector? Dead or Alive? I don't know. I think Isaac feels the whole responsibility over him. >.<
Both forgemasters argue, [Isaac's fault]. and they end up fighting. It doesn't seem like they want to kill each other right? ... My Sweet Hyne, Isn't Isaac's expression so real? *smiles*
Isaac lost... It's ok. Because he now has those hatred feelings in his head. It was to much for him, to lose to someone who was that weak and careless about anything. But what it really hurt him was that he was fighting for real, but Hector.  [great Isaac, now you can be obZeXed with hector]
This is my favorite part. It's amazing the way Isaac change his expression. Hurt-surprise-hate.... *smiles* I wish I could draw like that.
Rosaly... She is either too innocent or sweet to be hated. She found Hector and helped him.
Ok, She IS too sweet. Can't blame her... No wonder why Hector fell in love with her... and Isaac hated her so much.
Thus, Isaac can't be happy if Hector is happy... I bet he wants Hector to make such a happy face to him. (j/k)  Anyway, Isaac accused her of being a witch, and she was condemned by the town. Hector was forced to watch everything, and he could do nothing to help her.
Isaac made sure that hector knew it was him who was behind everything. BTW, what does Arekuto, alecto means?
Oppss.. Dracula... is he gone. *smiles* there's Trevor Belmont, who is not really convinced that Dracula has gone. (curse?)
Welcome back Hector!!! Isaac is waiting for him already!
(Let's welcome (Trevor too, even if he was not by Isaac)
Isaac: He looks a bit aged, but he is not. As far as I know he's a bit older than Hector, a couple of years?
Julia: Let's keep her out of this. I don't like her. She kept Hector for herself and abandoned her cute brother]... Let's burn her.
Trevor: What can I say that Trevor can't say for himself, He's so forthright. We just can't hate him, but love him for ever.
Hector: He's perfect *for Isaac*, Just what my nobleman of madness need.
