I also hope Dracula returns at some point. I get that the show(s) want to avoid the familiar territory of the games with having Dracula always being the main antagonist. And to their credit, they’ve incorporated some interesting villains based on real historical figures or fictional characters who have ties to the vampire mythos. But in the end, part of the selling point of Castlevania has always been Dracula. It’s a bit weird that he hasn’t been involved in so long, even though we know he’s still alive according to the show. Since Nocturne is loosely based on Symphony of the Night, I hope we get to see Alucard face off against his dad in season 3.
Truthfully, a Simon Belmont story is the one I want to see animated the most. Simon is the original after all.
Yes. And I the only look for Simon I will accept is Fabio Conan with a whip.
I can't remember Castlevania lore, but Simon is Trevor's grandson right?
Honestly, I'd love to see Trevor and Sypha back, so having a Simon centric story with those two back as his grandparents and side characters would be awesome.It depends, in the alternate Lords of Shadow timeline, he's the son of Trevor Belmont. In the original timeline, he's a more distant relative. Trevor was born in 1456 and Simon was born over two hundred years later. So more like a great-great-great-grandson.

You could always fudge the timelines I suppose. One thing about Simon while he was very strong, he's not a magic user and was never good with magic. A big part about Nocturne was that the Belmonts gained magical and speaker abilities due to Trevor and Sypha's union, making their bloodline even more powerful. And then Richter gained ultimate power having both the strength of the Belmonts and the magical abilities of the Speakers.
