Revision as of 23:37, 26 November 2013
A Web Original involving Castlevania's Big Bad, created by Kajetokun/Kajmaster Kajet. Exactly What It Says On the Tin, it chronicles a normal day in the life of Dracula. Can be seen here.
This work provides examples of:
- Affably Evil: Death.
- Ambiguously Gay: Death.
- Angrish: Dracula constantly goes into this whenever things get worse for him... which is always. When angered, he rarely makes a coherent sentence. See "Cluster F Bomb" below.
- Animated Actors: Possibly suggested by Dracula refusing to deliver his infamously bombastic speech from SotN (he later does say the line, only to put a spin on it at the end). Richter, however, goes charging ahead with his lines, not even listening to Dracula's rant. Dracula spares no time in pointing out that Richter's responses don't even match up to what he's (Dracula) saying.
- Back From the Dead: Starts with this.
- Back for The Dead: Lampshaded by Death when Richter comes waltzing in to his throne room and Dracula notes that he's only been alive for maaaaaybe five minutes.
- Big Damn Heroes: Parodied Trope when Maria comes in and makes Richter invincible.
- Butt Monkey: Werewolf.
- Everyone not named Richter Belmont (or Maria Renard), especially Dracula himself.
- Cluster F Bomb: Used with increasing frequency as Dracula's day gets worse and worse.
- Really, it's more of a Cluster GD Bomb.
- Curb Stomp Battle: Really, really, really played with.
- Degraded Boss: Werewolf's punishment for losing to Richter.
Death: "Dracula! Belmont just took down Werewolf. |
- Do It Yourself Theme Tune: The music of choice for the battle between Dracula and Richter is Kajetokun's own rendition (a cappella, and well done at that) of "Dance of Illusions", Dracula's usual battle Leitmotif since Rondo of Blood.
- Get It Over With: Subverted Trope, much to Dracula's misfortune.
- The Grim Reaper: Death, who else?
- Heroic Sociopath: Richter Belmont.
- Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: It even gets to the point where Death, usually That One Boss, is comically taken down within seconds.
- Light Is Not Good: The Belmonts keep stealing Dracula's food and cash, and in this case, Richter is attacking Dracula within five minutes of his awakening, before he's had time to do anything more evil than eating pot roast.
- Soylent Green: One response video (that isn't a spin-off) makes Dracula's pot roast look like this.
- Spit Take:
Dracula: (*spits tea*) "A BELMONT IN THE CASTLE?!" |
- Shout Out: This is from the same person who made The Balls Are Inert Youtube Poop. Dracula accidentally (or not considering how much he hates Belmonts) calls him a BALLmont.
- Shut UP Hannibal: Lampshaded: "You're not even listening to me, are you? Oh my God!" That's what happens when any Belmont has a one-track mind.
- Taken further in BBH MUGEN: Dracula vs. Richter (see below), where, upon being asked the question, Richter is seen shaking his head "no" to Dracula's question.
- This Cannot Be: Played with; due to how one sided the fight was, Dracula says it sarcastically, but his real last words are calling Richter a "fucking ass" again.
- Too Dumb to Live: Richter Belmont, who just insists on spamming Hydro Storm, even when Dracula clearly charges at him in heavy anger.
- Trademark Favorite Food
Death: "I made your favorite~! Pot Roast~!" |
- Villainous Breakdown: Dracula when Maria restores Richter to full health instantly.
- Whoring: Hydro Storm.
Dracula: "Dammit Belmont, how many hearts do you have?!" [1] |
Since there are several spin-offs, here's a character comparison table:
A Day in Dracula's Life / Dracula's Day (Castlevania) | Dracula | Death | Richter Belmont | Werewolf | Succubus | Maria Renard | Axe Armor |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Shademan has Tourettes (Mega Man NT Warrior) | Shade Man | Killer Man | Mega Man | Beast Man | N/A | Roll | N/A |
A Day in Meta Knight's Life (Super Smash Bros.) | Meta Knight | Snake | Pit | Wario | Marth | Yellow Pikmin | Ganondorf |
A Day in the Life of Shadow Lord (Final Fantasy XI) | Shadow Lord | Archlich Taber'Quoan | Player | Black Dragon | N/A | Titan | N/A |
BBH MUGEN: Dracula vs Richter (MUGEN) | Dracula | Jedah Dohma | Richter Belmont | Jon Talbain | Morrigan | Ingrid | Axe Armor |
- ↑ At least 270, considering how many times Hydro Storm was used.
