Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is a video game lead by former Castlevania series producer Koji Igarashi, with developmental assistance from Inti Creates. The game is a spiritual successor to the Castlevania series, and was released in 2019 for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Miriam, an orphan, is afflicted by an alchemist's curse, which is slowly turning her skin into crystal. To stop the curse, Miriam must explore a demon-filled castle and locate its summoner, Gebel, who has suffered from the same curse for a long time.

Tropes used in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night include:
  • Hero Antagonist: Zangetsu tries to kill Miriam at first sight only because she's a sharbinder, and therefore he believes she is pretty likely to be a traitor. Dominique manages to stop his fight between Miriam and Zangetsu before things get lethal.
  • Impossibly Low Neckline: Miriam, not only because it's so low but because her dress don't goes up in the back.
  • Mini-Dress of Power: Miriam wears one, and she is pretty dangerous, specially towards demons.
  • Ms. Fanservice: As you can notice for a few other tropes here, Miriam is pretty well-shaped and the game shows it.
  • Sexy Backless Outfit: Though the audience will see very little of it thanks to Miriam almost always facing the screen, her dress is exposes completely her upper back.
