Indeed, the manga is a treat for gun enthusiasts and anyone who appreciates some stunning displays of violence. Alucard, though ostensibly the protagonist, is not a “good guy.” He is a servant to the Hellsing Organization, answering specifically to Integra, but he has no qualms about killing anyone who gets in his way, and he delights in destruction. In fact, he and Integra’s butler, Walter, had defeated Millennium once before, and Alucard delights in the prospect that he can do battle with them once again. Kraft, Courtney. "Hellsing".

Seras, known as “Police Girl” by most, is hesitant to drink human blood or live in a coffin, grasping on to her remaining humanity and grappling with her steady transformation into a monster. Her newfound abilities are necessary, however, in the fight against Millennium, a holdover Nazi organization led by a man who was a Lieutenant in the SS during World War II, now known as The Major. The Major’s chief concern is to plunge the world into war once again, lusting after the chaos, violence, and upheaval that war brings. The Hellsing Organization isn’t the only group invested in defeating Millennium, however; the Vatican’s mysterious Iscariot Organization has deployed their hideously powerful Father Alexander Anderson whose bloodlust for Alucard occasionally threatens his ability to perform his duties. And though Alucard, Seras, and Anderson are all incredibly hard to kill, Millennium has another ace up its sleeve: They have been building an undead army for decades, scientifically modifying their ranks to be stronger.

The battle scenes in Hellsing HQ and London are hard to follow at times - how did Seras think she killed all the SS when she obviously did not? Why didn't the mercenary guy become a vampire (or did he? It's unclear). The battle between the Vatican and Nazis was a lot of just giant set-piece cannon-fodder and not a lot of strategy or tactics. It wasn't very satisfying.

The hardcover of Kouta Hirano's manga, Hellsing marks its first release in a 7x10 format with a different cover. All three volumes condensed the 10 original tankōbon volumes into 3 hardcover edition volumes. Every volume has the same cover though a different numbering at the bottom of the cover, and the edition includes an embossed casing, sewn binding, and ribbon marker instead of a newly done artwork by an author; like an omnibus.

Hellsing Deluxe Volume 1 by Kohta Hirano | Goodreads

Hirano stated that it was not his intention to do an erotic/ hentai register manga, rather, it's instead his intention to create a somewhat " daring action story." The concerning reception of the one-shot and when it was considered to be a erotic/ hentai manga, led to the short story become canceled and being considered a "failure" by Hirano himself, so shortly thereafter, Hirano said that he thought to himself: "why not remove the daring side and continue to show this strange universe by focusing more on the action?," and that's the start of the Hellsing series. [25] Kohta Hirano himself aimed to publish one Volume a year, but in reality, the publication of the Volumes was often delayed. [21] In the bonus afterword chapter at the end of Volumes 6 and 8, the Valentine brothers made a joke about Hirano's publication pace.Sherman, Jennifer (November 26, 2020).

Hirano stated that he wanted to make a story with gunplay, but that a story of vampires with guns would not work with Alucard being portrayed as a "formulaic vampire", so Hirano added him a hat and a long coat, stating: "[i]t's still dark and ominous, but just more suited to his behavior. I always come up with the characters before the story." [9] Hirano said that he received various comments comparing Alucard's design to Vash the Stampede from Trigun (whose continuation, Trigun Maximum, was also published in Young King OURs), expressing that he "shouldn't have given him the sunglasses". [10] Hirano said that, due to the "dark, desolate story", he wanted to create someone who made the series "a bit warmer" and a female character involved as well, so he created the character of Seras Victoria, who offered the opportunity "for both of those at the same time", adding that she is "the only one who stands out from the darkness." [9] Hirano commented that for the references to historical characters, mythology, and pop culture featured in the series, he did not do specific research, stating that he is not "someone with a lot of culture", but "just an otaku", and that all the references came from what he had seen and read out of " otaku passion".
