Aria Of Sorrow

Description:

In the year 2035, Soma Cruz is a seemingly Ordinary High School Student (Transfer Student in the English version) who gets transported to Dracula's Castle (AKA Castlevania), thought to have been sealed permanently during the battle of 1999, during an eclipse, along with fellow student Mina Hakuba. Also at the scene is government agent Genya Arikado (a.k.a Alucard), who suggests that Soma venture further into the castle to discover the secret of its reappearance. Soma contains the Power of Dominance, which allows him to take the souls of his enemies and augment them to his will. It is revealed later that a mad cultist named Graham Jones is behind everything and believes himself to be the reincarnation of Dracula. Obviously he has to be stopped.

After defeating Graham, we learn that it is not him, but Soma who is the reincarnation of Dracula after his final death in 1999. Soma later meets with a mysterious man named J, who is actually the man who defeated Drac in 1999, Julius Belmont, who had contracted Laser-Guided Amnesia. After a Get A Hold Of Yourself Man scuffle, Soma goes to defeat the embodiment of Chaos and saying to Julius that if he becomes Dracula, he wants Julius to be the one to kill him.
