Netflix's Castlevania Animated Series on Blu-ray

Castlevania: Seasons 1 and 2 -- $12.59 ($30)
Castlevania: Season 3 -- $18.59 ($2308)
Castlevania: Season 4 -- $17 ($30)
Castlevania: Nocturne Season 1 -- $24 ($40) | Releases October 8

In case you missed it when it first aired, Castlevania follows vampire hunter Trevor Belmont, powerful witch Sypha, and Alucard as they take on Dracula and his demonic armies. The second half of the show focuses on a coven of vampires looking to create their own undead kingdom, as well as the foul-mouthed Grim Reaper himself (this might just be Malcolm McDowell's best role ever).

As you'd expect, the show is violent and has beautifully animated action scenes, as well as banter sharper than a razor blade during some of the more quiet scenes. For the extras, you'll get behind-the-scenes videos, voice actor interviews, storyboards, art galleries, and more spread across these box sets.

Beyond the stellar discounts for Prime Big Deal Days, there's another reason why it's a great time to pick up and watch (or rewatch) Castlevania. Two reasons, in fact. As mentioned, Castlevania: Nocturne Season 1 arrives on Blu-ray very soon, as in tomorrow, October 8. Amazon has an awesome deal on the Blu-ray, dropping the price from $40 all the way down to $24.

Set hundreds of years after the original Castlevania animated series, Nocturne Season 1 followed Richter Belmont and took inspiration from the 1993 PC Engine game Rondo of Blood, which some fans may know better by a different name. Rondo of Blood was exclusive to Japan at launch; Konami brought the story to North America on Super Nintendo as Castlevania: Dracula X.

Netflix recently teased Season 2 of Nocturne, which will debut in January and is inspired by the classic original PlayStation game Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the direct sequel of Rondo of Blood.
