This community was designed for Hellsing fans, people who enjoy Hellsing, have great fondness for the characters etc...

PLEASE no character bashing (yes, this includes Incognito). What is "bashing" - basically it's a complete and total putdown with zero respect shown to a character (for example Integra bashing from electric-monk.net - Fics from Hell There is nothing wrong with not caring for a character but bashing goes way too far and it upsets other members - so please don't do it in here or any other fan community unless you want to be very unpopular with everybody.


Hellsing, Iscariot, and Millennium are Loved by Us Fans.

There's been some confusion (thanx to a past bad fan translation) about Rip not being a vampire but a werewolf. She is a VAMPIRE!!! The "werewolf" is a title/name for a type of Nazi soldier which she is. Schrodinger is "werewolf" only in title as well (Hirano at AnimeExpo 2005 did in response to a fan question confirm that Schrodinger is a "neko" - Japanese for "cat" - and that he was also created by Doc). However there is ONE actual werewolf (lycan) character (read here if you want to know who it is). The following was written by [info]mr_mitts and should straighten things out -
DIE JAHRTAUSENDGRUPPE (The Millennium Group):
A Chartered Treatise On Nazis, Vampirism & The Occult Within Hellsing Relating To The Millennium Group, Its Factual and Fictional Nature (Or, what I like to call - 'Factional Nature') And How It Relates Within The Wider Picture.


Yes, there is a difference between "Hellsing" and "Van Helsing" - AnimeNation's "Ask John" and or ask ASHN's Sir Integra if you dare - LOL!!!


Due to there being so many Hellsing sites out there and poor newbies getting overwhelmed Googling, decided to list a few links to make things a bit easier for everybody -

And Shine Heaven Now, and BloodKnight are all good "Start here" places for Hellsing info, finding other Hellsing related sites/fans, and linking to.

Common questions asked and (hopefully) answered -

1: Is there going to be a second anime season by Gonzo?
Nope, their anime series was meant to be one season.


2: How many manga volumes are there?
There are currently 9 in Japan, (#9 was released November 9th, 2007).

There are currently 8 English volumes out in the States at the moment.

3: Where can I buy the manga?
You can buy it at just about any comic/book seller - here's a few links for those who like to shop online -
www.amazon.com
www.amazon.co.uk
www.amazon.co.jp (for the Japanese release)
www.animenation.com (carries both the English and Japanese mangas also has "Young King Ours" the monthly Japanese magazine that has the latest chapters of Hellsing).

It is published by Dark Horse (the US release) and Young King Ours (the Japanese release).

4: Are there Nazis in the manga?
Yes there are and it's a organization called Millennium (aka "Millennium Group").

5: Is there a manga prequel?
Yes Kohta Hirano wrote the "Dawn" (aka "The Dawn") which appeared in the Young King Ours specials which dealt with a fourteen year old Walter (aka "Young Walter") and a very feminine looking Alucard with bangs and a white pillbox hat (aka "Girlycard" aka "Femcard") in the time of WWII. Go to ATU-BOTI and look for 'Hellsing - The Dawn'.

Also, a number of the current Hellsing characters have 'counterparts' in Hirano's early hentai (adult) works.

6: The ending of the Gonzo anime was a bit weird. Was this contained in the manga?
Nope, the anime followed the manga reasonably well for eps 1-6, 7 was loosely based on the manga and episode 10 was another manga episode. But the other episodes came from the minds of Gonzo.

7: Are Incognito, Ferguason, Helena, and Bubbancy contained in the manga?
Nope these were anime only characters. I'm still myself wondering where they dragged Incognito from Oo;


8: Hey, I just discovered Alucard is Dracula backwards! What does that mean?
There are several allusions to Alucard being Dracula, or at least a descendent/genetically modified version throughout the series. See if you can spot em ;)
