:::That is very interesting and I've never thought of it that way. I was thinking it was a nod to [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/a/a1/Belmont_Legacy_-5.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20160507172215 the comics, which Christopher starred in.] Another reason why I believe the Red Alt. is a reference to Juste and not Christopher is because of how neglected he, as a character, is. The only real character development we get from him is from the comics, and even then, the comics weren't popular. Christopher's games never really had a lot of story in them, apart from the dialogue at the end of Belmont's Revenge. He is the only Belmont who did not appear in [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/castlevania/images/2/2e/POR_Greatest_Five.gif/revision/latest?cb=20170913212102 the Greatest Five] move from Portrait of Ruin (neither did Julius, but that was because Julius did not exist at that point in the timeline), and is the only Belmont who does not have a spirit in Smash Ultimate. Even Gabriel Belmont got a spirit, and he's not even canon! Christopher is only barely canon and it makes me sad. He truly is the most neglected Belmont..

::::Technically speaking, Chris is hard-coded canon as early as day 1, seeing as the Japanese manual for the first game makes mention of the "Legend of Christopher". Now granted, the story could be talking about Trevor, who also has the middle name Christopher, but his tale was 200 years before Simon, whereas "The Legend of Christopher" was 100 years.  Even then, considering how his game was on the Game Boy, Chris had an uphill battle to get through which he never really succeeded at in comparison to his ancestor and great-great grandson. It also amazes me that you overlooked Reinhardt with the yellow outfit seeing as he ''also'' wears a red scarf, much like Julius, even wearing a yellow tunic under his purple vest, but that's a bit of a stretch as well.
