Hardly anything like Castlevania? Well, it would have been a pretty boring cartoon if Trevor did nothing but walk from left to right the entire time while whipping at enemies over and over. Obviously they had to expand on things from the NES game this is based on and deliver an actual storyline, which so far seems pretty loyal to the established lore to me.

I mean, it's about Dracula and a guy named Belmont with a whip who fights him and his monsters and it uses Ayami Kojima-style art & character designs, so I fail to see about the inaccuracies you're talking about.

I'm hoping the announced season 3 deals with the Symphony of the Night storyline (it's really the only direction that makes sense given the ending of season 2) so we can possibly get some figures based on that game. Alucard looks fine in season 1 & 2 but I'd really like to have a figure based on his gothic renaissance look from that game. The NECA one released years ago is okay, but it has a lot of shortcomings and it's really expensive on the secondary market.
