Hellsing Ultimate

[AceHigh]

Personally i'm not a fan of vampires, even though i'm a huge horror movie/anime fanatic (which is why I watch these). Always preferred werewolves, sadly there is no Hellsing equivalent series for them. They are almost completed ignored in Anime, except for Margerie Daw in Shakugun no Shana, the one in Hellsing of coarse, and a few others. But I digress...

There are so many Vampire and Werewolf lores out there, that I can say for sure that some suck and others are great. My personal favourite vampire lore is from Vampire the Masquerade P&P game. Have yet to see a richer and more intruiging lore. Also World of Darkness has awesome werewolf lore.

Too bad that anime.... or should I say Japanese have nothing spectacular to offer in that field.

[newy]

Do they have bloodsuckers at all? Or did their legends mixed with western ones about vampire and creating... modern legends?

It is curious to see that you say that Alucard is OP when in the last few OVA he actually had no screentime other than maybe sitting on his battleship grinning.

[Teiresias]

any news on where ep 8 will be out?

[Klakket]

Probably in June or something

[kevin33]

Someone mentioned to me that there was only going to be 8 OVa's. Then someone told me 10. How many OVA's are they making for Hellsing? I am really curious.

[Animade]

There should be 10 ovas in total and ova 8 is scheduled to be released on June 22nd. Fingers crossed of course. 

[Rhaath75]

Hey any one know when I can dl hellsing ova 8? Its ship date to japan is today (july 27th)

[Muk666]

[Havoc10K]

[AceD]

That was fast lol, they should be careful or they gonna trip over.

[Kendjin]

Well... I think the only question now is... 2013 or 2014 for the final OVA?

I'd not say no to a 2012 release, but I think we all know there is no chance of that. On the bright side, least they seem to get these out more frequently than EVA movie releases.

[Havoc10K]

3 OVAs in 2 years is a considerable speed up.

Heh...I remember watching this when I was still in high school, and up to OVA 7 sometime in 2010.
Crud happened and I hadn't kept track of #8/9 thereafter (still think they took forever to come out though; I mean, only ~10 posts since last July ).

You're not kidding anyone. They've been slow for every release of every OVA for Hellsing, we'll be lucky if we get it by december this year
