“ And from the ancient times, the 4 pillars that guard the castle-----Medusa, Frankenstein, Mummy and Giant Bat „
~ Excerpt from Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku explaining the four pillars that guard Dracula's Castle

Background

The Giant Bat is a recurring boss in the Castlevania series. As a massive bat symbolically tied to vampires, it instills fear in all who encounter it. It is notable for being the very first boss to appear in the series.

He serves as one of the four pillars that guard Dracula's Castle from many hunters that enter.

In most games, the Giant Bat is portrayed as being composed of a swarm of smaller bats. In Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, it is revealed that this creature is one of the three core components of Dracula's power, alongside the Flame Demon and the Succubus. Dracula himself often takes the form of a giant bat or a swarm of bats during many of his encounters.

The Giant Bat has appeared under various names and forms throughout the series, including:

  • Phantom Bat
  • Zapf Bat: A bat composed of treasure.
  • Darkwing Bat: A bat specializing in wind-based attacks.
  • Bat Company: A swarm of bats that can merge to form various shapes.
  • Twin Bats: Two giant bats working together.

Weaknesses

Note

Trivia

  • The Giant Bat is the very first boss to appear in any Castlevania game.
  • The English instruction booklet of Castlevania confounded and switched the artworks between the Bat enemy and the Phantom Bat boss as they appear in the original Japanese Famicom Disk System version of the game.
  • In Castlevania, this monster is called "Zapf Bat". The reason for this name is a mystery, although it could be related to Zapf Dingbats, a type of Wingdings font.
  • In Castlevania, this monster is called "Myotia". Myotis are a diverse and widespread genus of bats within the family Vespertilionidae, which are colloquially known as "mouse-eared bats".
    • The Myotis myotis is a European species of these types of bats, colloquially known as the "greater mouse-eared bat".
  • In Castlevania, this monster is called "Bat Company". This is probably a reference to English rock band Bad Company, which was prominent during the 1970s and early 1980s. This is further supported as many characters from several other classic Konami franchises are also named after famous rock musicians and bands.
    • The name could also be a reference to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part IV: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, where the character Keicho Nijimura has a Stand called "Bad Company", which is comprised of multiple military units that act as and are considered to be a single entity. And just like Bad Company, Bat Company is comprised of many small bats working together as a single unit to deal damage and only take damage when they're combined into a single form.

Codex Statistics Questions

Q: Shouldn't the characters be around Tier 2 for defeating the Time Reaper who would've destroyed the very fabric of time[141], attempted to destroy the specific era of time[142], cause all beings everywhere to disappear, forever[143] and that the age was on the verge of collapse[144]?

A: We actually never get a direct outright method of Time Reaper's plan for doing this, from what Aeon mentions to Golem, if the Time Rift is not erased, all beings everywhere will disappear, forever[145], implying that it's the Time Rift causing this, this is further backed up by the fact that in Time Reaper's boss fight, there is a vortex in the background consuming everything[146], meaning this is an overtime feat that scales to no one physically.

Q: Shouldn't they get tier 2 for Dracula's influence destabilizing the flow of time[147]?

A: This is a potent ability but has nothing to do with Attack Potency, there is no quantification for "destabilizing the flow of time", along with this, even if it was taken as physically, then it would be overtime as the effects are not noticeable throughout most of Curse of Darkness. Thus this is merely potent Time Manipulation.

Q: Shouldn't Dracula and by proxy anyone that scales to him get tier 2 for him being able to sustain his castle?

A: This goes under our Stabilization Feats standards, which treats sustaining feats are non-combat applicable Attack Potency normally, though in Dracula's case the Castle is speficially powered by the existence of a Dark Lord, and doesn't necessarily need their strength to rise. In the Castlevania novel, the castle rose without a Dark Lord as an example. Along with this, no one scales to the collapse of the castle, in Curse of Darkness Hector would've died to the collapse of the castle if[148] Julia didn't come save him, and Isaac died within the castle[149]. In other cases the Castle does not collapse[150], but instead slowly fades away[151]. At the end of Dawn of Sorrow Soma Cruz and Alucard (Castlevania) (aka Alucard) must escape the collapsing abyss.

Q: Shouldn't Castlevania characters that scale to Death have Infinite speed due to Death being able to kill distance itself with his attacks?

A: Killing distance to attack is not a speed feat, it's a method of Spatial Manipulation by circumventing and ignoring distance, while one can say the attack spawns on you instantly, this is not really something quantifiable. Along with this, it would only scale to characters comparable to Death during post-Dawn of Sorrow, as Soma notes Death is far faster than he remembered from his fight with him in Dawn of Sorrow[152].
