About

You Must Be The Belmont, also known as Trevor Punching Dracula, is an exploitable scene from season two of the 2018 Netflix animated series Castlevania, in which the protagonist Trevor Belmont attempts to punch Dracula who is unphased by his blows. In memes, creators replace the punches Belmont throws with various sound effects and occasionally change the scene's dialogue to be more humorous.

Origin

The scene came from the seventh episode of the second season of the Netflix Castlevania animated series, which is titled "For Love," that premiered on October 26th, 2018.[1] In the scene, Trevor Belmont, Alucard and Sypha Belnades face off against Dracula Vlad Tepes in a hallway of his castle. Sypha is knocked away while trying to use her magic against him, and Belmont runs to her aid. He quickly punches at Dracula with a series of blows, but none seem to do any real damage. Dracula responds to Belmont's vain attempt by saying, "You must be the Belmont," before landing a staggering punch into his gut (scene shown below).[2]



A shortened clip of the scene was posted to YouTube by InquisitorDAKKA on June 8th, 2021, which has received over 340,000 views in seven months.[3]
