Top Ten Forgotten Darkstalkers Characters
Top Ten Forgotten Darkstalkers Characters
Darkstalkers is one of my favorite fighting games and I think it’s time we finally cover it for a full list. But instead of talking about the heavy hitters of the series, like Morrigan, Felicia, and Demitri, I want to look at the lesser seen members of the series. The characters that appear alongside the main, selectable fighters have some cool hidden lore that we tend to overlook. I’ll be covering some of the most significant side characters in the series, whether they’re in characters animations, backstory, or just a hidden fighter.

I want to see a Death Battle between Q. Bee vs D’vorah (Mortal Kombat). Just to see who is the one true insect queen! 🐝

On the subject of Harry Grimoire, the Darkstalkers cartoon was used for the YTP series The Frollo Show. Interesting isn’t it?

Top 10 forgotten characters in Dark Stalkers? You mean all of them?

I always liked how Shadown just leaves the "host" he possessed body to go onto the fallen fighter he just defeated. I also used to think that the host turning grey after Shadown leaves implies that he stole their soul before possesing another corpse.

All of these great ideas for characters wasted because Capcom wants to be cheap and lazy.

I feel like Anita could grow up to be a Rose repaint from Street Fighter. but i also feel like Rose could just be a Darkstalker character

10:04 So Bishamon is like Nightmare in Soul Calibur 3?
October 20, 2022 @ 9:23 am
12:44 you mean descendant. Merlin would be the ancestor.

Darkstalkers…such great series with such a charismatic roster.imagine a ds reboot with the same passion and quality that capcom put in sf6.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:23 am
Amazing! I love this game.

aka top ten Darkstalkers characters who aren’t named Morrigan
October 20, 2022 @ 9:24 am
You know, with a good rewrite Harry could be an interesting fighter for the next Darkstalkers since there’s little magic focused characters and turning him into a fortune teller or hunter with a more noble alignment would stand out.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:25 am
Hm, who are the most recognizable characters in Darkstalkers?
October 20, 2022 @ 9:26 am
I would love to see a future Darkstalkers game with an older Anita as the protagonist, Dee as the antagonist and Belial as a playable giant boss, which is something the Darkstalkers series has never had unlike a lot of Capcom’s other fighting games, preferably with a manageable size like Onslaught and Abyss’ first forms.

Great characters
October 20, 2022 @ 9:31 am
I would like Marionette to come back as an automatic clone choice. Like you’re telling your opponent, "regardless of who you pick, I’m better at that character than you are."
October 20, 2022 @ 9:32 am
Got to be one of my new favorite videos from you. I had no idea Darkstalkers had all this yummy, obscure lore
October 20, 2022 @ 9:33 am
Darkstalkers is a fantastic topic to bring on this show.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:33 am
I like how you pronounce Huitzil very wrong but with a lot of confidence.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:33 am
Yet to watch but aren’t all darkstalkers, like, forgotten?
October 20, 2022 @ 9:36 am
Morrigan – the boobs of the Darkstalkers franchise.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:40 am
I have a question… The Red Earth character Tessa has this cannon special move where it shoots little bee people wearing crowns. These little bees wearing crowns look a lot like the tiny little bee form Q-Bee has in the beginning of the round and in her win poses. Are they somehow connected?
October 20, 2022 @ 9:42 am
Marionette/Shadow will always be my favorites for all the bits of extra flavor related to them. Their creepy entrances and arcade endings, the fact that you never get an in-game explanation for them, the fact that they visibly fatality the opponent at the end…all perfect.

Number 1. Demitri
October 20, 2022 @ 9:46 am
Fun Fact the reason why Darkstalkers was alittle goofy 🤪 because the creator who made this game wanted Darkstalkers to have a Looney Toons and Tom & Jerry twist to it.

Jesus loves you and died and rose again for your sins everybody
October 20, 2022 @ 9:49 am
Honestly qbee would’ve been a great character for mvci or a marvel vs capcom character along with jedah. She’s been the one of the few female Darkstalkers that hasn’t been added as a playable character in any crossovers. She’s been an enemy unit in crossover RPGs such as project x zone and namco x capcom
October 20, 2022 @ 9:50 am
I’m creating a cartoon. It’s called, Forgotten Tales! It’s about these forgotten and obscure characters that go on wacky and crazy adventures.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:50 am
In my opinion Dee could easily be The Final Boss of a Darkstalker 4
Especially if he absorbed the Power of his/Donovan Guardians/Spirits

October 20, 2022 @ 9:56 am
That Darkstalkers cartoon was so cursed! Lmiao! The animation, the way the characters looked. And I always thought Q. Bee was absolutely adorable. 💜

Top 10 katana users in fighting games
October 20, 2022 @ 9:57 am
Nice list! Though I will add that there is another hint of Pyron’s siblings also from a non canon source, Teramon from the Darkstalkers cartoon, I think he was Pyron’s older brother in that, I’ll have to look into it again.
October 20, 2022 @ 9:59 am
All of them besides Morrigan
October 20, 2022 @ 10:00 am
You never fail my BOI! Epic work and putting names and shine on some DOPE characters
October 20, 2022 @ 10:04 am
Will we also get a "Top ten Rushdown Characters" <3 ?
October 20, 2022 @ 10:04 am
27:16 Huh…giving Pyron a family is also what the last episode of The U.S. Darkstalkers cartoon did. His hyper competent brother (he’s got a name, I can’t remember it off the top of my head) shows up and starts upstaging him. I think there’s also mentions of like a mom existing as well. Did Capcom Fighting Jamolution really reference an obscure cartoon that had been cancelled for years by then or is there just something in some Lore Bible about Pyron being A Family Man? I guess we’ll never know.
October 20, 2022 @ 10:05 am
It would’ve been more fitting for Harry to be a descendant of Van Helsing rather than Merlin. And if a Darkstalkers 4 ever happens I would like there to be a Van Helsing inspired character.
October 20, 2022 @ 10:05 am
J Talban fight aganist the origin of her curse, when he defeat the origin from the curse he become human again.
October 20, 2022 @ 10:06 am
Hm, how interesting, i hope something new will happen with Darkstalkers at some point.
October 20, 2022 @ 10:06 am
Marionette & Shadows lore was written into the Morrigan comic book you showed published this year.
October 20, 2022 @ 10:07 am
The first place really reminds me to the Medichis on the story of Skullgirls, that family is involved almost in every single story of all girls and makes conflicts with everyone. Thank you Mr top your videos are always chill and amazing ❤️
October 20, 2022 @ 10:08 am
Forgoten characters in… forgoten fighting game series. Yeah…
October 20, 2022 @ 10:08 am
Wanna know something ironic? At least people know the personality of those forgotten characters.
Unlike the shitty "friendly succubus" that no one knows is friendly
