I would recommend Young Justice but I'm also apparently a horrible judge of shows (see @Coin , I love you too). It's different from what you'd expect out of a Teen Titans-esque concept. I enjoyed it for what it was -- a separate, new take on the teen sidekicks of superheroes. It establishes them as their own thing, a reason for the JL to not be involved heavily, and does change some source material -- but it's good. It's worth watching to see if it clicks for you.
@Coin
I assume you weren't... whelmed... by Young Justice? flee!
I said Young Justice was absolutely the shit. Young Justice is awesome.
But then, it's Greg Weisman, who is awesome.
On Castlevania, I agree that it feels like a big prologue... which is kinda what it is. It's adapted the first like, quarter of the Castlevania 3 video game and embellished it a lot. It's not a finished product at all. It needs a full 13 to really flow, I think. It did a good introduction and setup (and it uses Symphony of the Night as the backstory for Dracula there, which I like). Still, it was pretty good, and a second cour is already greenlit.
Yeah. But I'm annoyed by this thing they do where they produce an unfinished first bit to test the waters and thennnnnn come around to the rest. Like, take a fucking chance on your own product. Have some damn pride.
@Thenomain
It got to the point pretty quickly. Humans piss of Dracula. Dracula wrecks their shit. Cue Belmont (now, once you get to Cue Belmont, things get slow...)
Wrapping up the Castlevania stuff: it's a video game. Like, I watched it, and every five minutes or so, I would spot something that was literally just--like--if I had a joystick in my hand I'm not sure I wouldn't have started mashing buttons out of instinct. The fights are video game-y, the part where Belmont is walking around asking people about stuff is super video game-y. I mean I know it's based on video games but come on people.
I mean, I liked it, don't get me wrong. But everyone's raving way too hard. It was good.
