Fans hating on Greta for myriad nonsense reasons is expected at this point, and usually it has to do with her race, her relation to the trio, how well she clicks with Alucard, and her only being introduced in the final season.
But seeing someone claim it's because she essentially "stole" a canon mlm rep from the show by being a woman instead of a man is peak fan bullshit.
#fanon/loosely teased canon aside with alucard and trevor i can agree that having a sweet mlm relationship would have been nice in the show#but it rings as wildly hollow that greta can blamed that lack of rep when that is NOT why fans hate her#and y'know i have little doubt that fans who hate her would have absolutely been fine w/greta had she been grant instead#bc fandom is full of bs#except that's not my beef with their theory. my beef is that it's being argued genuinely: that the only flaw with greta and her bond#with alucard is that she's not a man with the shaky excuse that it's ''for rep''#as of bi4bi and bi woman/bi man relationships aren't generally ill represented in fiction or interracial relationships aren't rep themselve#which is to say: i am so tired of fandom flattening the complexities/intersections of human experience#down into ''good/desired rep'' vs ''not good enough rep'' not bc there are actual problems w/said rep but bc it's not what you want to ship#and that's just sad tbqh#castlevania#edit: also yes mlm can be bi4bi but what i meant was that gretacard is still queer so it already exists as queer rep

I would love it if people stopped viewing every single thing a girl/woman character said, does, or imparts on a narrative as inherently pro/anti- feminist. It is highly reductive and reeks of empty-handed pop-feminism that ignores more articulated, systemic-based critique on real life, material matters surrounding cisheteropatriarchy and other intersecting social, cultural, and economic oppressions.

Netflixvania is a feast for monster fuckers, whether we're on the easy end of the spectrum with all of the vamps, to the more monstrous bunch like Abel and the various night creatures, but listen: Death. Can. Get. It.

When Adrian reaches out to Sypha, imploring her to stay in the new village he is helping to build, and the way she slowly agrees; it really feels like a beautifully subtle development of both their characters, especially their relationship with one another. Adrian learning to voice his desire to see the people he cares about stay by his side, in contrast to the end of S2 when Sypha and Trevor venture off while he mourns alone in the castle; Sypha seeing that the cold persona she sensed from him back in S2 had melted away to reveal his humanity and need for others, and accepting and welcoming this tender being as a part of her new life.
Like, damn. That's the good shit.

Carmilla chose to have no one but herself end her own life when the tide of battle turned against her, especially given that the one to take her down was a man.
Morana and Striga chose to focus and live for one another, without compromise, abandoning conquest and strife to instead cherish each other.
Lenore chose to burn out in the sun before the very person she had originally entrapped in a dark dungeon, freeing herself from a cushy prison she had originally placed said person in herself, while he gets to finally live freely.
The vampire sisters were vastly undersold and underdeveloped, with so much season-spanning potential tidied up far too soon, but if nothing else I do appreciate the connecting narrative of agency in one's fate that binds their finales.
