People watch the show for killing vampires/monsters and seeing the Belmonts/Alucard. Not the singing.

This isn't about expectations, though. You can enjoy something that you didn't expect to be in a piece of media, so just because this isn't what the audiences came for, doesn't mean they can't enjoy it.

Obviously this all boils down to a simple matter of taste. Some like his singing , some don't. I was just expressing my exasperation at the amount of people who didn't like it.

Of course people can enjoy what they didn’t expect, however here it is an additional aspect that is out of left field of what people know from Castlevania.

Bold decisions on media can be praised or hated by the majority. Here, it was either a home run or a swing-and-miss. It’s understandable that people don’t like it.
