Top 7 Memorable Quotes from Castlevania: Nocturne Season 2 You Can’t Miss!

by

In the second installment of “Castlevania: Nocturne,” there were yet again some remarkable scenes that any enthusiasts of the games or anime would appreciate. From battles where hundreds of daggers suddenly appear within someone’s cloak, to a dragon laying waste to its enemies, this new Netflix series certainly delivers on action-packed entertainment.

In addition to the series, season two of Castlevania: Nocturne offers a wealth of insightful and humorous quotes. However, unlike other seasons of the original Castlevania anime, it didn’t introduce many new characters. Nevertheless, let’s delve into the profound and amusing dialogue this season has to offer, keeping in mind potential spoilers.

7. “You Made Me Kill Every Last One Of You And There’s Nothing F***ing Here?”

Alucard

  • Episode One

In the beginning of season two, there’s an unforgettable scene where Alucard attacks an Egyptian tomb in search of Sekhmet. He encounters numerous guards along the way, suggesting that he may have finally found her lair. Following some thrilling action sequences, he reaches the coffin, only to discover it empty. Before the credits finish rolling, he delivers a memorable line. A powerful cold open like this can effectively create anticipation for what’s coming next in an anime or any other type of series. This is a fantastic way to kick off a season and leave viewers eagerly awaiting more.

6. “Perhaps This Time Evil Doesn’t Have To Win.”

Juste

  • Episode Two

In the initial season of “Castlevania: Nocturne”, there were unexpected appearances by characters since the series primarily focused on Richter and his debut game, “Castlevania: Rondo of Blood”. One such character was Juste, who briefly appeared as a recluse, expressing the belief that fighting was futile because evil ultimately prevailed. This pessimistic outlook is echoed in season two when he recovers his lost wedding ring and utters this revised line at his wife’s grave, “Maybe this time, evil doesn’t have to win.” Despite being less fit than in his earlier appearances, such as “Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance” on the Game Boy Advance, Juste regains his faith and decides to fight once more.

5. “I Don’t Always Pick A Fight I Can Win.”

Mizrak

  • Episode Three

In the first season, Mizrak displayed a somewhat villainous character, but underwent a change when he discovered that The Abbot wasn’t as holy as he appeared, especially when he came close to sacrificing Maria to Erzsebet Bathory. By the second season, he became a key figure in the resistance and primarily focused on maintaining harmony with the Belmont group.

In my perspective, the script weaves a captivating subplot between Mizrak and Olrox, two characters deeply entwined by love yet grappling with their complex emotions. While Olrox seems to question the validity of the rebellion, Mizrak delivers a poignant retort, advocating for perseverance even in the bleakest of situations. This scene serves as a powerful reminder against defeatism and encourages us to press on, even when success appears nearly impossible.

4. “Most Of What’s Bad In The World Is Because Of Stupid Old Men!”

Maria

  • Episode Four

In episode four, Maria experiences a significant transformation, similar to Anakin Skywalker’s, as she embraces the dark side. Driven by a desire to halt the production of more monsters, she plans to assassinate her father, The Abbot, at the church. Juste swiftly follows her in an attempt to suppress these destructive impulses, understanding that revenge is not the answer. However, Maria, blinded by her newfound darkness, dismisses Juste’s appeals with a chilling statement. This line resonates universally, reflecting the struggles we face globally in our own reality. Despite this truthful, thought-provoking moment, Maria uses her newly acquired dragon summon to brutally cook The Abbot, reminiscent of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

3. “Where Is She, Where Is This Erzsebet?”

Annette/Sekhmet

  • Episode Six

In the sixth installment, Annette embarks on a journey to explore the realm of divine beings, where she anticipates encountering Sekhmet – an entity she trusts may intervene against Erzsebet, who is exploiting souls in the mortal world. Interestingly, Sekhmet’s role could be likened to Voldemort and his Horcruxes from the “Harry Potter” series; however, in this context, it would mean that Sekhmet is fighting against herself or a part of herself.

Towards the finale, Annette manages to persuade the goddess sufficiently for her aid, resulting in Sekhmet stirring within Annette. She then queries Alucard and Richter about Erzsebet’s location. This is a hint that exciting developments are on the horizon for fans.

2. “This Power Belongs To Me.”

Drolta

  • Episode Seven

In the first and second seasons, Drolta served faithfully as Erzsebet’s servant, even returning from the dead to do so. From episode two onwards, viewers witness Drolta’s transformation into a female vampire who spent her entire life striving to resurrect her Egyptian goddess, Sekhmet, in a living host. She thought she had found a worthy vessel in Erzsebet, but after the major battle in episode seven left Erzsebet weakened, Drolta felt disappointed. Now, she believes that the power of Sekhmet should have been hers all along and, with a cold-hearted act, Drolta casts down her former mistress, reclaiming the power that rightfully belonged to her.

1. “I Will Kill You Olrox, One Day, But Not Today.”

Richter

  • Episode Eight

In the eighth episode, one of the standout moments harks back to season one, when Olrox took the life of my mother but spared me with a promise to hunt me down. Now, in an unexpected twist, I found myself face-to-face with Olrox, who had played a part in eliminating Drolta. Given the opportunity for retribution, I chose fairness over vengeance and let him go. It’s a familiar trope from anime, such as Vegeta and Goku in Dragon Ball Z, where adversaries eventually form an alliance despite heinous acts committed against each other. Could season three be the time when Richter and Olrox put their past behind them and find resolution?
