Alucard: What's happening?
Taka: You've been lying to us.
Alucard: I have not.
Taka: You have. Because everybody lies to us. Everybody hides things from us.
Sumi: You won't help us. Because nobody helps us. We will work out how to move this castle.
Taka: We will find all your secrets. We will use to build our own empire.
Alucard: I gave you everything
Sumi: No you didn't. Nobody does. We have been lied to and cheated across half the world. Do you expect us to believe you're different?!
~ Sumi and Taka excusing their treachery to Alucard.

Sumi and Taka are major antagonist in Castlevania: The Animated Series, serving as two of the three secondary antagonists (alongside Lenore) in season 3. They seek Alucard to train them in vampire hunting so they can protect the people of Japan from another vampiric threat. But they hold alternative motives as they want to control Dracula's castle for their own purposes and became very impatient with Alucard for not showing his secrets.

They are voiced by Toru Uchikado and Rila Fukushima in English and by Shuntaro Karato and Kanako Miyamoto in the Japanese dub.

Their Evil Ranking[]

Their Villainous Deeds[]

  • They manipulated Alucard into teaching them vampire hunting and feigned their friendship with him.
  • While the two are lovers that work together, nothing indicates that these two genuinely love each other at all.
  • When Alucard least expected it, they raped him and attempted to kill him while having sex with the dhampir. The aftermath of this resulted with Alucard breaking down as this emotionally scarred him.
  • Their reasons to kill Alucard is because he did not reveal much of his secrets to them and they wanted to move Dracula's castle.
  • While they may have had some tragic background as they were slaves for one of Dracula's generals, Chō, who oppressed the people of Japan with an iron fist, which explains their paranoia, this is completely subverted when they decided to sexually abuse Alucard, which had nothing to do with their tragedy at all.
  • It's heavily implied that they wanted to build their own tyrannical empire, as they were desperate to learn about the castle's moving magic. If this was true, then they were no better than Chō and all the other vampires that they sought to kill.
  • While they may have had a brutal death at the hands of Alucard, they deserved it for what they did to him, as well as for the mental and emotional damage that they inflicted on him.

Why They Don't Stand Out?[]

  • They failed the heinous standard for the series with many characters doing much worse than them. Like Prior Sala, who sacrifice the many villagers of Lindenfeld in order to bring back Dracula, and the Judge, who was secretly a serial killer while establishing his rule on Lindenfeld.
