3* How do you unlock the Vampire Killer's full power? By defeating the Whip's Memory, which is a recreation of the last Belmont who used the Vampire Killer--in this case, [[VideoGame/CastlevaniaRondoOfBlood Richter Belmont]]. He is often stated to be the strongest Belmont in the clan, only rivaled by [[VideoGame/CastlevaniaAriaOfSorrow Julius "Killed Dracula for Real" Belmont]], yet Jonathan fights him ''[[DuelBoss alone]].'' So when he finally gets to use the Vampire Killer ''properly'', he's shown himself to be as badass as [[BadassFamily the Belmonts]]. Even better? Said boss is weak to the Dark element, and one weapon with this element is the [[PieInTheFace Cream Pie]]. So you get to beat Richter with [[LethalJokeWeapon pies]].
4** Also what the shade of Richter says when you beat him and unlock Vampire Killer’s full power.
5--->'''[[TheChooserOfTheOne Richter:]]''' [[DefeatMeansRespect I’m counting on you.]]
6* Storyline-wise, this is what Jonathan feels after the fight with Death.
7-->'''Death''': Ugh! How can someone like YOU possess such amazing powers?!
8-->'''Jonathan''': I may not have the whip's power, but I can still kick your [[PrecisionFStrike ass]]!
9* The locomotive on 13th Street is a true [[Funny/CastlevaniaPortraitOfRuin WTF moment]] when you first encounter it. Actually ''stopping'' the train? Awesome. You walk into 13th Street. A train comes at you at top speed? Do you run? Yes. You run RIGHT INTO IT AND STOP IT WITH YOUR BARE HANDS.
10* The Final Boss. For the only time in the series, Dracula and Death fight together against Jonathan and Charlotte! Death covers the top space of the room and if you happen to be under him, he will dash downwards to get you. Dracula keeps this up by using his normal TeleportSpam and Hellfire/Dark Inferno spells to whack you from the sides, forcing you to multitask between Dracula and Death. Oh, and you think you're the only one with dual crushes? If the battle goes off long enough, Dracula and Death show off a few of their own! First, Death and Dracula will wall you into one side of the room before Dracula turns into a swarm of bats to kill you. Second, Death will create a horde of his sickles on one side of the room. Think you're safe near or far from them? Think again: Dracula absorbs them and throws back out a flurry of Dark Infernos! Finally, Death transforms himself into a huge scythe, which Dracula proceeds to GRAB and slam down on the ground to unleash his Demonic Meggido attack! But wait, there's more! When taken down, Dracula uses Soul Steal to take Death's power for himself and becoming a new bat monstrosity that can unleash hellfire from above and try to crush you between his claw wings! What Charlotte says at the end of this fight truly captures how it goes: "That was a wonderful display of impromtu teamwork."
11* Death and Dracula teaming up in the final battle!!!
12** Especially when Death intercepts the heroes before the battle:
13---> '''Death''': You will not touch Lord Dracula! This time, let's fight for real!
14** And then, when Death takes enough damage, the ''final'' final battle begins...
15--->'''Death:''' ''[[WhamLine My power! Use my power!]]''
