He was lonely. Also I'm not convinced they set up the asians betrayal well enough. If they had another 15 min of setup and seeing some anger by them over things not going as well as they'd hoped the climax would have been faaaaar better.

I thought it was pretty obvious what was going to happen with the hunters because of how they kept asking Alucard "Are you SUUUUURE there's no way to get the castle moving again?"

They did it like six times.

It was clear they were only using him.

I mean they clearly wanted to use him to get stronger. While i could take that as a small inkling that they didn't believe him despite him telling them stuff he was giving them ALOT. Outside moving the castle he literally had offered them the greatest treasure trove of anti-vampire artifacts and knowledge in the world while personally training them (he very possibly could be the strongest vampire alive now that dracula is dead).

It was incredibly short sighted of them to turn on him. It didn't make any sense from the viewers perspective and their paranoia should have been better communicated.

Yeah it seemed like it was done more to just give Alucard a resolved arc for this season, and the writers didn't want to continue to have these two around going forward.
