Synopsis
The Hellsing Organization is a supernatural collective dedicated to protecting mankind from a war that rages in the Earth's shadows in which humanity is only a pawn. Able to keep the dark forces at bay for so long, Hellsing has recently been coming across artificially spawned vampires so powerful that they can do nothing to stop them. So, the Organization calls in Arucard, a rogue vampire who combats this army of the undead with Seras Victoria, a female companion he rescued from death by vampirising.

I ABSERLOUTLEY LOVE THIS COLLECTION ..... from the slightly phsycotic priest to the vampire himself, the anime is well presented, fast paced and the story lines are sure as hell very varied .... i bought this to have a look at after i had just been watching some of the new hellsing series from the states. Vampire against the world action? .... this is it .... from hand to hand and vampire to vampire building up to the whole spectral entity versus spectral entity type fights, you gotta see it to believe it.

well they have british accents!!! WOO
i have a major collection of animes. and this i did not know anything about i just decided to get it! And im very glad i did!
It involves around a organisation called hellsing who soul purpose is to destroy all vampires, freaks and ghouls! this organisation also has its own vampires fighting to rid the world of copies of vampires! ALucard is this said vampire and is a great among anime characters!
So what else is great about this series! well its set in england!!!!! YAYAY for once huh? not only do they all have accents from all over the UK but the references to coventry and birmingham kind of make me feel proud!! haah! well that said the accents are a little posh!
there are alot of times this series will shock you excite and make you unable to wait to watch more!!!
A definate buy!

Now I want more vampire anime!
I haven't been in to anime for that long, and this is only the second series I've bought (as well as a bunch of movies). So obviously with my little exprience I don't have much to compare this to, but I still absolutely love it! If all vampire anime (Vampire Hunter D, Trinity Blood etc) are ths cool I'm in for a real treat if I get them. The animation is awesome. I really like the dark, moody look of the series, and Alucard's often eerie movements, and the music is really good aswell. Alucard is the coolest vampire I've ever seen, but I was a bit confused when I heard other characters call him 'Alucard', but in the cedits it says 'Arucard', but I found out this is what he is called in the Japanese version. I always watch anime with the english dubs because if I wanted to read subtitles all day I'd get a book! Still, as much as I loved this series, it still can't compare to Cowboy Bebop or Full Metal Alchemist, which are beyond amazing! But still, highly recommended, one of the most stylish anime I've seen yet.
