Trevor Belmont has never been a particularly polite person. But you can't say that he lacks the courage to tell it as it is. Nor does he suck up to people, not even to those with lots of power.
As possibly the only person with an understanding of what's going on with the supernatural, he knows there's no point sucking up to people in power since that wont change anything. To him it's either leave them be and let them die or take action and influence by example
He always speaks his mind, and he only insults people he really hates. I can respect that, as much as I respect politeness. Everyone needs a backbone, or they will be broken by society.
The worst of all of this is that he actually believes what he's saying. Edit: goddamn it people, fedora tippers debating this shit in my comment for a year. God isn't a bad thing and spirituality is a massive aspect of your mental health but the priest here is so goddamn fixated on ignoring everything horrible he caused in the name of his god that I had to call it out. I'm Muslim by the way.
That's exactly why Trevor is disturbed. Until he met this lunatic, he most certainly had his encounters with crazy evil church priests, but this may be the first time he sees a man that actually believes what he says.
It is really interesting that they portrait the Bishop like this. I don't think the series was bent on blaming the Church for the causes. It was more towards those in power. Yes, I bet there are a lot of good people working for the church but in those times when religion was at it's strongest, there were people who abuse the power of the church for themselves rather than God and still try to convince themselves that what they are doing is god's word, the thing is what is god's word. If this video went right up until the end, then it would have shown the greed the Bishop had of becoming the Church when all the other towns were destroyed. Too bad Dracula didn't get to kill him personally. By the way, does anyone feel like this Bishop is based off Judge Claude Frollo from the Hunchback of Notre Dame?
I think he is based on a priest called Heinrich Kramer he started the witch trials that killed hundreds of innocent people thay study natural medicine and took away women's rights and he was a incel
The reason that the priest killed Lisa is that if she cured people all the time, people wouldn't go to church and donate as much as they usually would like in today's time.
That look of abject horror on Trevor's face when he realizes that the Bishop genuinely believes that what he's doing is in God's name, and by His divine will, is priceless. So too, is the almost-divine punishment given to the Bishop by ol' Blue Fangs. Almost as if it was sent down by God to show the Bishop the truth before his untimely demise.
It’s even deeper to Trevor since I believe this is them isn’t he realizes he can’t really stop it all. The Bishop can’t be reasoned with at all, he’s so caught up in his own myth of importance. Trevor could kill him, but that would turn the whole city against him, and wouldn’t stop someone just as bad from rising up. All he can do is try to protect the Speakers as best he can
Seeing this incredible SOB getting his well deserved punishment by one of the night creatures was easily one of the best moments of the entire show. "Lies?! In your house of God?" So satisfying.
@@BlazeIgnitus It's like self-hypnotizing in some ways, as if trying to convince yourself knowing that the reasoning you have isn't good enough, rather than at the person in front of you.
Hm. Burning that woman as a witch seemed to not play out like we'd hoped, since it infuriated her magical husband and he unleashed the literal forces of hell upon us. It would seem that God has sent us a sign. _Burn MORE witches!_
It's not that the show is intentionally showing the church as bad in a way to say religion is bad. The problem is that, in the shows lore, you have a bunch of jackasses who are trying to use religion as an excuse to serve their own needs. Such as the Bishop wanting to basically ascend past his station by abusing his power and then using his authority to burn Lisa.
@Lady Mercy Why do you think the Bishop would commit the same actions if he was selfless and “authentically religious”? Most people would conclude that such drastic changes to a person’s character would yield drastically different actions.
@Lady Mercy Think it’s more tying his selfish nature directly to his assholish-ness, and stating that “man, if only he wasn’t a whole asshole, he wouldn’t have made the situation what it is.” Which, can only be true in technicality. Maybe he wouldn’t be in this _exact_ situation, shooting himself in the feet with wide spread, but at the very least he might have moved to prevent some of the inciting event from occurring to begin with, and been able to see things as they really were in his current situation. It cannot be “known” outside of someone writing it, and it cannot be portrayed accurately because (besides plot reasons) it cannot be identified exactly why he became the asshole he is in the first place.
@Lady Mercy Not to be rude, but you're putting words in OP's mouth. The original commenter didn't say the bishop's actions would be ok if Lisa *was* a witch. They merely said that this particular message of the show is "religion ain't bad, but abuse of power is." Cause that's what the bishop did. He abused his position of power to get what he wants. He's the equivalent of a corrupt noble, except instead of the excuse of royal blood, he uses the excuse of "God's will"
"Hence Theocracy is the worst of all governments. If we must have a tyrant, a robber baron is far better than an inquisitor. The baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity at some point may be sated; and since he dimly knows he is doing wrong he may possibly repent. But the inquisitor who mistakes his own cruelty and lust of power and fear for the voice of Heaven will torment us infinitely more because he torments us with the approval of his own conscience and his better impulses appear to him as temptations." -C.S. Lewis
Your words made me remember a quote from a fanfiction: "I have seen many scary shits in my life as a journalist, but a person who uses religion as his or her shield and excuse to justify their sins...is dang terrifying."
One thing that I like about this series is that while it does make a point of saying that corrupt people like the Bishop and Arch-Bishop are to blame for Dracula’s wrath being incurred, it doesn’t blame religion in general for it and even makes a point of showing that the big man upstairs wasn’t looking favourably on what was being done in His name. Like when the Bishop gets his just deserts because his actions have led to his church no longer being protected from the presence of hellspawn (and their lethal ‘reason you suck’ speech) yet that same night another/actual priest who helps in defending the city is able to sanctify water to kill demons with. I was a little confused on why the bishop’s reanimated corpse was able to do the same thing in season 2, but then it occurred to me that with Henry (who is known to be naive and wanting to prevent a senseless genocide) pulling the strings on said reanimated corpse, he might have been given a pass either for being a lesser evil with relatively good intentions because the intention of the action itself was to stop Dracula’s war of annihilation, whereas the Bishop hiding in the church with nobody around was likely to maximize his own chances of survival while ordering the deaths of even more innocent people for his own benefit.
I too thought it was dumb that an unholy corpse was able to consecrate water, and I think they should have changed how it was handled, maybe by cursing the river or something. But with what canonically happened, I think that implies that the effects of ordination seem to be permanent and latent on the body of a clergyman, and cannot be revoked even upon death, or God refuses to do so. He will unconsecrate places, but not people it seems. This God does seem to be a bit ruthless though. He sent a philosopher to hell for the sin of lying in court, despite it being under duress and torture.
@@Zarastro54 that's kinda what God does in real life too. He/She simply doesn't let that side of Him/Her get out so often because He/She knows if He/She lets it come out unchecked, He/She will be no better than the Devil.
@@Zarastro54 The man from Athens? I think it oes a little further than that, I think he said innocent people were part of his "group" that weren't as well. But beyond that point, he betrayed his colleagues.
The voice acting in this series is beyond superb and the Bishop is one of those whose voice feels like silk in my ears, together with Strigga, Isaac, the Captain, Ratko, Sypha etc.. Its pure bliss listening to them.
this bishop is the exact definition of lawful evil. A force that thinks he is doing the things he does for "the greater good", without ever doubting that he may be wrong. he doesn't care about the rights of the speakers, because in his eyes he is doing this for both the cities own "safety", and also in the name of god. he was the one who started all of draculas rage and want for humanities extinction, but he doesn't want to believe it _was_ his fault and what he did is truly righteous. I always love characters like these. Auto from wall-e is one of my favorites. I know that auto is a very different character than the bishop because he's a robot who's following his code, not some deranged old christian man, but characters who believe they aren't wrong and act like they're mr. goody-two-shoes are villains that i absolutely love to hate, and i'm sure a lot of people can agree with me on that.
and because of people like that an incredible person died and dracula was driven insane, destroying so many chances to improve the world as a whole and causing the death of countless people. saying and believing to serve God disrespecting the simplest concepts
It’s sad how the bishop who represents the church is portrayed as the worst person in the series. And the villain of the series is dracula who attempts to wipe out humanity with hordes of hell spawn.
@@odsttrooper3724 No one is superior to anyone, as we are capable of making something of our life that has some meaning, and are capable of both kindness and being terrible. Being superior is an illusion that people use to justify their acts. Especially those taught they are the center of their universe, and are the voice of authority, like the Bishop here. Even if it not true as expressed in this show.
When he said he was giving Trevor his life, as if he owed him, I wish Trevor slowly stepped up onto to dais beside him, and pulled his cloak back enough to expose his sword hilt. He could have said: "I've stopped myself from killing you at least six times in the last two minutes. But I am merciful. Take your pathetic life, and go. Do not squander my generosity."
MEH. I'm fluent in five languages. I loved this series so much, that I watched it in English, Spanish, French, Japanese and Hebrew. The English voice acting wasn't any worse or better than the other versions.
I imagine that Dracula at first thought about killing this bishop in the worst ways possible, but as time passed he grew so depressed that he just wanted everyone dead and by consequence, himself as well.
Amazing VA. Very satisfying to listen to him altho I hate it that I like it xD If this man didn't arrange the death for Lisa Tepes (Dracula's wife) then so many lives would be saved, If anyone deserved death it would be this man. End humanity and you end human kindness as well. Every species has rotten apples in it, Be it humans or vampires. :P Absolutely loving the series tho. Can't wait for season 4.
Aptly well said, my friend. The Bishop is just so captivating to listen to. His voice is just dripping with contempt. I like how this show doesn't target the church specifically, more like people in charge. If anything, Trevor, Sypha and Alucard are doing God's true will, but only by choice.
The framing in this scene is amazing. Although he is in shadow, the angles give the impression that Trevor is kneeling before the cross, both centered in frame. On the other hand, the Bishop is surrounded by light, he himself is standing away from the cross and in shadows, literally tuning his back on the cross. Put another way, the scene itself is showing you that Trevor is a good guy and the Bishop is a bad guy, beyond just the words they are saying.
@@theanti-person9113 the Habsburgs weren't very powerful in the 1400s, and certainly not in this show if Carmilla managed to beat them around and wrestle Styria from Austrian control, especially given how close Styria was to Vienna, the Austrian seat of power.
*I may be a demon, devoid of virtue but I know bullshit when I saw it, and those at the top... Are filled to the brim of it.* -A line from a fanfiction story.
He convinced all of Paris that gypsies were tricksters and thieves that fooled people with witchcraft. The bishop convinced the citizens of Targovista that the Speakers were devil worshippers who brought Dracula's horde to destroy so-called "non-believers."
Yeah, weird. PD: I find funny that your comment says "far right", given that the bishop, and pretty much all the church in this TV Show, are pretty much, well, fascists...
Possible and I feel like the Archbishop wasn't a fan of burning people at the stake; at least not anymore. He wasn't even there watching the burning of Lisa or witnessed Dracula show up. The Archbishop obviously believed Lisa was a witch, but maybe wanted to execute her in a more humane way (as odd as that sound). Either by hanging or decapitation; both are quick and painless. And he didn't watch her execution because he couldn't deal with seeing people like that anymore.
I always wondered what he meant by the "interests" of the archbishop and "clerical discipline" Given the creepy look the guy had, I'm pretty sure those were some dark interests that even the bishop, as evil as he was, disagreed with
The Bishop: "I may have been a deluded megalomaniac, but I was serious about it. I truly believed. A vow of celibacy does not mean one may frequently take whores for 'private confessions' or 'bless' young boys, nor tolerate it in others!"
@@duddude321 yeah that's what I thought, tho I didn't remember the bishop saying that so if it comes after season 2 please don't tell me more because it will be a spoiler
Ngl when he said Dracula’s wife was a witch and then “there can be no doubt now that she consorted with evil” I was like “… damn I mean you’re wrong but I see where you’re coming from”
@@RobertsonIsland Because of the actions of the Bishop. You can't just ignore context, my guy. You're trying to give them sympathy when the issue started from them being hateful, angry, and resentful individuals who killed someone because of their own lack of understanding. Lisa represented scientific advancement. She wasn't a witch
Funny part is Trevor is a good example of what Jesus wanted man to be good and willing to stand up to evil. Yeah Trevor is a ass at times but end if the day he is willing to give his own life to protect others from literal demons from hell. Here’s hopeing Netflix doesn’t ruin Richter.
The fact that this old man was small-minded enough to burn an innocent woman alive for being a witch, despite plentiful evidence to the contrary, *as **_well_** as* try to kill a bunch of magicians who only want to help people, again, despite plentiful evidence to the contrary, AND piss off a full-blood vampire lich, and THEN, not get the fuck out when he says so, is not by any means respectable or admirable. It is blindness, and willful ignorance.
I dont respect anyone who murders while hiding behind God. People like the bishop do nothing but give us Christians that want to live in peace with our neighbors a bad name.
His calming voice makes him even more menacing, because when you hear him he doesn't sound like a threat along with his age. But he is a threat, a religious zealot fanatic with a lot of power.
@@misabelrodriguez1163 a lot of power, extreme beliefs and absolutely no common sense. This bishop was the personification of a wolf in sheep's clothing and I loved every second he was on screen.
It's somewhat strange that sometimes there's that one villain in a story who comes off as worse than the main antagonist. (The audio's a wee bit out of sinc)
I know, right? Delores would be a way better antagonist in terms of villainous methods, but then again Voldermort was the one who started it all. Whereas here, the Bishop manages to be both more evil, AND sets the events in motion by having Lisa executed.
@@zachisenbletter1133 for sure lol. And yeah I was just clarifying that I was joking as some people tend to not be able to understand jokes, especially in an online, text based system. Helps avoid confusion if I clarify beforehand haha
he got what he deserved that night. not only did Trevor agree with Drac about punishing when he heard the priest orchestrated the burning, and the demon that killed told him he isnt one of gods children. when a demon tells you that god doesnt love you, you need to rethink your life.
Well frollo was a real believer meanwhile the bishop how said the blue fang demon he had lied on all and howewer the fact that a disney villain is comparable to this show how notredame was his masterpiece
how are you capable of knowing that specifically dracula summoned the night hordes and saying that you organized the burning of his wife but then say the blame falls else were. this show nailed how cultists in our world think and exact to a T
I know right ? I know God isn't all evil and that His/Her rules actually make sense and are worth following, but He/She did terrible things in the Bible that I can't simply forgive Him/Her.
@@JabamiLain From the perspective of an ancient primordial creator it probably made sense. I feel like we can't really judge a being like that. Especially after Jesus came along and decided that hey, maybe humanity as a whole is worth saving.
What I most like about this show, is that it seems to aboard religion in both an atheist and gnostic perspective, something that it's very rare for you to see in midia.
Although it was disappointing that the priesthood of Wallachia are depicted as uniformly Catholic, as opposed to the diverse mix of Orthodox Christianity, Judaism & Sunni Islam that represented the religious beliefs of the people of Eastern Europe in Ottoman times, the Bishop is one of the most amazingly well portrayed villains in anime, particularly in terms of presenting a villain who believes themselves correct.
The Catholic Church is probably what Western audiences would have more instantly recognized. Additionally, I believe it was the Catholic Church which was depicted in the game series the show was based on.

That's the worst thing, he actually believed every word he said. He was absolutely sure that he was helping everyone.

That look of abject horror on Trevor's face when he realizes that the Bishop genuinely believes that what he's doing is in God's name, and by His divine will, is priceless. So too, is the almost-divine punishment given to the Bishop by ol' Blue Fangs. Almost as if it was sent down by God to show the Bishop the truth before his untimely demise.
It’s even deeper to Trevor since I believe this is them isn’t he realizes he can’t really stop it all. The Bishop can’t be reasoned with at all, he’s so caught up in his own myth of importance. Trevor could kill him, but that would turn the whole city against him, and wouldn’t stop someone just as bad from rising up. All he can do is try to protect the Speakers as best he can
Seeing this incredible SOB getting his well deserved punishment by one of the night creatures was easily one of the best moments of the entire show.

It's not that the show is intentionally showing the church as bad in a way to say religion is bad. The problem is that, in the shows lore, you have a bunch of jackasses who are trying to use religion as an excuse to serve their own needs. Such as the Bishop wanting to basically ascend past his station by abusing his power and then using his authority to burn Lisa.
Not only in the show's lore, but in real life the Church was similarly corrupt.
@@Zarastro54 it still is. I think the only clerig clean these days is our Pope.
@Lady Mercy Why do you think the Bishop would commit the same actions if he was selfless and “authentically religious”? Most people would conclude that such drastic changes to a person’s character would yield drastically different actions.
@Lady Mercy Think it’s more tying his selfish nature directly to his assholish-ness, and stating that “man, if only he wasn’t a whole asshole, he wouldn’t have made the situation what it is.”
Which, can only be true in technicality. Maybe he wouldn’t be in this _exact_ situation, shooting himself in the feet with wide spread, but at the very least he might have moved to prevent some of the inciting event from occurring to begin with, and been able to see things as they really were in his current situation. It cannot be “known” outside of someone writing it, and it cannot be portrayed accurately because (besides plot reasons) it cannot be identified exactly why he became the asshole he is in the first place.
@Lady Mercy
Not to be rude, but you're putting words in OP's mouth. The original commenter didn't say the bishop's actions would be ok if Lisa *was* a witch.
They merely said that this particular message of the show is "religion ain't bad, but abuse of power is."
Cause that's what the bishop did. He abused his position of power to get what he wants. He's the equivalent of a corrupt noble, except instead of the excuse of royal blood, he uses the excuse of "God's will"
"Hence Theocracy is the worst of all governments. If we must have a tyrant, a robber baron is far better than an inquisitor. The baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity at some point may be sated; and since he dimly knows he is doing wrong he may possibly repent. But the inquisitor who mistakes his own cruelty and lust of power and fear for the voice of Heaven will torment us infinitely more because he torments us with the approval of his own conscience and his better impulses appear to him as temptations."
-C.S. Lewis
Sick
Your words made me remember a quote from a fanfiction:
"I have seen many scary shits in my life as a journalist, but a person who uses religion as his or her shield and excuse to justify their sins...is dang terrifying."
C.S. Lewis said this? As in the author of the Chronicles of Narnia?! Holy shit, the guy is awesome. And he was friends with Tolkien.
The dialogue of this whole series is so fucking GOOD!!
My blood was literally boiling hearing that bishop talk.

I brought you here to answer questions, not ask them
"Well tough shit"
One of my favorite lines of this show
One thing that I like about this series is that while it does make a point of saying that corrupt people like the Bishop and Arch-Bishop are to blame for Dracula’s wrath being incurred, it doesn’t blame religion in general for it and even makes a point of showing that the big man upstairs wasn’t looking favourably on what was being done in His name. Like when the Bishop gets his just deserts because his actions have led to his church no longer being protected from the presence of hellspawn (and their lethal ‘reason you suck’ speech) yet that same night another/actual priest who helps in defending the city is able to sanctify water to kill demons with. I was a little confused on why the bishop’s reanimated corpse was able to do the same thing in season 2, but then it occurred to me that with Henry (who is known to be naive and wanting to prevent a senseless genocide) pulling the strings on said reanimated corpse, he might have been given a pass either for being a lesser evil with relatively good intentions because the intention of the action itself was to stop Dracula’s war of annihilation, whereas the Bishop hiding in the church with nobody around was likely to maximize his own chances of survival while ordering the deaths of even more innocent people for his own benefit.
I too thought it was dumb that an unholy corpse was able to consecrate water, and I think they should have changed how it was handled, maybe by cursing the river or something. But with what canonically happened, I think that implies that the effects of ordination seem to be permanent and latent on the body of a clergyman, and cannot be revoked even upon death, or God refuses to do so. He will unconsecrate places, but not people it seems. This God does seem to be a bit ruthless though. He sent a philosopher to hell for the sin of lying in court, despite it being under duress and torture.
@@Zarastro54 that's kinda what God does in real life too. He/She simply doesn't let that side of Him/Her get out so often because He/She knows if He/She lets it come out unchecked, He/She will be no better than the Devil.
@@Zarastro54 The man from Athens? I think it oes a little further than that, I think he said innocent people were part of his "group" that weren't as well.
But beyond that point, he betrayed his colleagues.
The voice acting in this series is beyond superb and the Bishop is one of those whose voice feels like silk in my ears, together with Strigga, Isaac, the Captain, Ratko, Sypha etc.. Its pure bliss listening to them.
this bishop is the exact definition of lawful evil. A force that thinks he is doing the things he does for "the greater good", without ever doubting that he may be wrong. he doesn't care about the rights of the speakers, because in his eyes he is doing this for both the cities own "safety", and also in the name of god. he was the one who started all of draculas rage and want for humanities extinction, but he doesn't want to believe it _was_ his fault and what he did is truly righteous.
I always love characters like these. Auto from wall-e is one of my favorites. I know that auto is a very different character than the bishop because he's a robot who's following his code, not some deranged old christian man, but characters who believe they aren't wrong and act like they're mr. goody-two-shoes are villains that i absolutely love to hate, and i'm sure a lot of people can agree with me on that.
and because of people like that an incredible person died and dracula was driven insane, destroying so many chances to improve the world as a whole and causing the death of countless people. saying and believing to serve God disrespecting the simplest concepts
It’s sad how the bishop who represents the church is portrayed as the worst person in the series. And the villain of the series is dracula who attempts to wipe out humanity with hordes of hell spawn.
Sad but true. Cause humanity can't help itself in producing disgustingly sick individuals who abuse their powers.

@@odsttrooper3724 No one is superior to anyone, as we are capable of making something of our life that has some meaning, and are capable of both kindness and being terrible.
Being superior is an illusion that people use to justify their acts. Especially those taught they are the center of their universe, and are the voice of authority, like the Bishop here. Even if it not true as expressed in this show.

This show had some of the best voice acting I have ever heard.
When he said he was giving Trevor his life, as if he owed him, I wish Trevor slowly stepped up onto to dais beside him, and pulled his cloak back enough to expose his sword hilt. He could have said:
"I've stopped myself from killing you at least six times in the last two minutes. But I am merciful. Take your pathetic life, and go. Do not squander my generosity."

Absolutely loving the series tho. Can't wait for season 4.
Aptly well said, my friend. The Bishop is just so captivating to listen to. His voice is just dripping with contempt. I like how this show doesn't target the church specifically, more like people in charge. If anything, Trevor, Sypha and Alucard are doing God's true will, but only by choice.
if that happened isaac would not have gone on his personal journey
@@kratosorokai1546 Obviously lol, Then Isaac wouldn't have met Dracula at all and such.
The framing in this scene is amazing. Although he is in shadow, the angles give the impression that Trevor is kneeling before the cross, both centered in frame. On the other hand, the Bishop is surrounded by light, he himself is standing away from the cross and in shadows, literally tuning his back on the cross. Put another way, the scene itself is showing you that Trevor is a good guy and the Bishop is a bad guy, beyond just the words they are saying.
Castlevania’s got some of the most crisp voice acting I’ve ever heard and I love anytime any character speaks.
High Priest voice acting is just... amazing.
Can we get another good Church villain in season 4? Like, let's have some outright Inquisition stuff from outside of the country

@@theanti-person9113 the Habsburgs weren't very powerful in the 1400s, and certainly not in this show if Carmilla managed to beat them around and wrestle Styria from Austrian control, especially given how close Styria was to Vienna, the Austrian seat of power.

Let's be honest we like the blue fang demon, he didn't deserve to die the way he did
"We disagreed on matters of... Clerical discipline."
Wonder if the Archbishop chewed the Bishop out for what he did?
Possible and I feel like the Archbishop wasn't a fan of burning people at the stake; at least not anymore. He wasn't even there watching the burning of Lisa or witnessed Dracula show up. The Archbishop obviously believed Lisa was a witch, but maybe wanted to execute her in a more humane way (as odd as that sound). Either by hanging or decapitation; both are quick and painless. And he didn't watch her execution because he couldn't deal with seeing people like that anymore.
Lies? In your house of God. No wonder he has abandoned you.
I always wondered what he meant by the "interests" of the archbishop and "clerical discipline"
Given the creepy look the guy had, I'm pretty sure those were some dark interests that even the bishop, as evil as he was, disagreed with
The Bishop: "I may have been a deluded megalomaniac, but I was serious about it. I truly believed. A vow of celibacy does not mean one may frequently take whores for 'private confessions' or 'bless' young boys, nor tolerate it in others!"

Here’s hopeing Netflix doesn’t ruin Richter.
At least you can respect this guy for actually believing what he says rather than just inciting hate to gain power
The fact that this old man was small-minded enough to burn an innocent woman alive for being a witch, despite plentiful evidence to the contrary, *as **_well_** as* try to kill a bunch of magicians who only want to help people, again, despite plentiful evidence to the contrary, AND piss off a full-blood vampire lich, and THEN, not get the fuck out when he says so, is not by any means respectable or admirable. It is blindness, and willful ignorance.
i think thats makes it worse
He does incite hate to gain power though. The bishop wanted a power vacuum happen inside the Church so he could be top dog. He literally stated such.
Can you though, I think the point of his character was to be so absorbed in his own bullshit that it eventually drowns him/ tears him apart
I dont respect anyone who murders while hiding behind God. People like the bishop do nothing but give us Christians that want to live in peace with our neighbors a bad name.

The High Priest is the embodiment of all that is vile and evil behind the cloak of organised religion.
he has such a calming voice, it almost lulls you as he is talking.
His calming voice makes him even more menacing, because when you hear him he doesn't sound like a threat along with his age. But he is a threat, a religious zealot fanatic with a lot of power.
@@misabelrodriguez1163 a lot of power, extreme beliefs and absolutely no common sense.
This bishop was the personification of a wolf in sheep's clothing and I loved every second he was on screen.
It's somewhat strange that sometimes there's that one villain in a story who comes off as worse than the main antagonist.
(The audio's a wee bit out of sinc)
Another example of this is Delores Umbridge and Cornelius Fudge. I'd argue that they're more hated by Potterheads alike than Voldemort himself 😂
I know, right? Delores would be a way better antagonist in terms of villainous methods, but then again Voldermort was the one who started it all. Whereas here, the Bishop manages to be both more evil, AND sets the events in motion by having Lisa executed.

Although it was disappointing that the priesthood of Wallachia are depicted as uniformly Catholic, as opposed to the diverse mix of Orthodox Christianity, Judaism & Sunni Islam that represented the religious beliefs of the people of Eastern Europe in Ottoman times, the Bishop is one of the most amazingly well portrayed villains in anime, particularly in terms of presenting a villain who believes themselves correct.
The Catholic Church is probably what Western audiences would have more instantly recognized. Additionally, I believe it was the Catholic Church which was depicted in the game series the show was based on.
