Disappointing

I had already watched the TV series and was developing withdrawal symptoms so was pleased when the Ultimate volumes came out but I have to say I feel it's just a rip off, the first two ultimate episodes are very much a re-run of what happened in the boxed set. It's only in the third volume that you get a real grip on the new story. The characters are more cartoonish and it doesn't have the dark edge I had come to expect from Hellsing. I hope the future volumes improve, I feel these have just been an expensive mistake.

My Daughter Loves It

I bought this for my daughter who was having problems finding it in the stores. She loves it and it worked fine!

Excellent OVA!!! Not your typical anime

When I found out this DVD even existed, I had to go out and buy it. It was everything I liked about the first series, but this time stayed closer to its magna roots. I tried to watch other anime series and OVAs, but most of it is garbage compared to Hellsing. If you're a fan of the magna, you should definitely pick this up. If you like vampires, huge guns, and lots of action, you should pick this up.

Fantastic Anime Series

One of the best anime series out there...I watch a lot :-/ The characters are great, the action is exciting, and you actually route for the bad guy (anti-hero).

5 stars if you haven't seen the regular Hellsing

If you have seen the regular Hellsing this Hellsing Vol.1 OVA is the same storey as the regular Hellsing but told slightly different. But the rest of the Hellsing Ultimate edition episodes are not, they are completely differend stories. So if your a first time Hellsing watcher go ahead and watch it. If your not then I would suggest skipping this disc. Hellsing is deffinetely one of my all time favorite anime series. I even got some of my friends that are completely against anime to watch it and they loved it.

The Ultimate OVA series (2006) continues the popular vampire hunter broadcast series Hellsing (2001), both of which were based on the manga by Kouta Hirano. Vampires are stalking England, which means Sir Integra Hellsing must take them out. Most of this 50-minute segment is devoted to a duel between Hellsing's super-vampire Arucard and Father Alexander Anderson, a bio-engineered vampire in the service of the Vatican's murderous Iscariot Organization. It's a veritable gorefest, but not a particularly original one: the shooting effects are copied from T2, while the ghouls recall The Night of the Living Dead. The dialogue is often unintentionally hilarious: "It's been a while since I had my head cut off." Viewers may be repulsed by the endless sprays of blood, the leering sadism, and misappropriation of religious symbols. (Rated 16 and older, but more appropriate for 18 and older: graphic violence, violence against women, sadism, sexual situations, grotesque imagery, offensive religious imagery, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
