Status: Complete (13 episodes, Ultimate: 7 mini-movie episodes)
Premise: A secret organization within the British government working behind the scenes has been preserving the peace for centuries their goal; the total destruction of vampires an all other occult lore. Hellsing employing crack troops and cutting edge technology have held out but nothing is to compare to their ultimate vampire hunter, Alucard a vampire of the golden age of vampires with powers beyond all rational thought. He fights alongside the organization after being defeated by its founder Van Hellsing and now tests his skills against the best this generation has to offer
Thoughts: The original anime was interesting if a little cliche, but Hellsing Ultimate is a whole new box of crazy. Ultimate is graphic, violent, terrifying, awe inspiring...... probably was written by a person barely holding onto his sanity. It is an epic title if ever I have seen one, but be prepared for allot of insanity to go flying past you faster than you can digest it.
Prose: Ultimate is awe inspiring, great animation and voicing, gratuitous use of plot, a masterpiece for those willing to brave it.
Cons: This anime is DARK. Dark and twisted. be prepared fore some mind fraks.
-Notes: Hellsing is fully dubbed, Ultimate is only dubbed untill episode 4 (and its taking them a bloody long time for number 5).
8.5/10 (The dead are dancing, and all hell is singing)
