AkumajÅ Dracula X Chi no Rondo (悪é”城ドラã‚ュラX è¡€ã®è¼ªå»» ,AkumajÅ Dorakyura Ekkusu Chi no Rondo?, lit. "Devil's Castle Dracula X Rondo of Blood") is a Japanese PC Engine Super CD video game in the popular Castlevania series, released on October 29, 1993. The "X" of the title refers to the Roman numeral for ten, since it is the tenth chronologically released game in the AkumajÅ Dracula series in Japan (not counting the Famicom and Game Boy game Kid Dracula). It was never released outside of Japan, despite positive reviews from both fans and critics.
The kanji "輪廻" are generally pronounced "rinne", referring to the Buddhist concept of the endless cycle of death and rebirth. The idea of cycle could correspond to the musical form of the rondo, in which the first section of the music is repeated, usually in the tonic, or first note of the musical scale. For this particular game, because of the furigana ãƒãƒ³ãƒ‰ in the title, "Rondo" is the official pronunciation, or forced reading, of the kanji. On the front cover of the Official Strategy Guide, the English title is written as "Dracula-X Reincarnation of Blood".
A game based on Chi no Rondo called Castlevania: Dracula X (AkumajÅ Dracula XX in Japan and Castlevania: Vampire's Kiss in Europe) was released for the Super NES two years later.
In 2007, Chi no Rondo saw a North American release and remake as part of Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles for PlayStation Portable. This game, for the first time, officially re-titles the original Chi no Rondo as Castlevania: Rondo of Blood for English localization.
