Overall, Hellsing is the best anime of its kind out there. With some of the coolest characters ever, great music, great art, and an outstanding plot, it is one of the best animes on the market. If you like shows with vampires and/or the undead, buy this. If you like great action scenes and lots of blood and violence.

For those with an affinity for gothic horror and dark, intense drama, Hellsing is an absolute can’t-miss series.

Like I said before, there's hardly anything original about this series. No matter what aspect you take into consideration, it's all been done before: the secret organization thing, the good / bad guys from Vatican messing things up, the apotheotic scene in which a demented and very powerful villain threatens to bring about the destruction of the world and all the other things like that. On the other hand, the action is very dynamic, and even though this series is quite short, it manages not to become boring or repetitive.

If you're looking for an anime with good action scenes, plenty of blood and moral / spiritual references here and there, then Hellsing is definitely a title you shouldn't miss out.

i cant really say this story was original, because there is alot of vampire stuff out there, but i cant really compare it to anything thats out there, there probably is but nothing that i know of, there is almost no humor in this show, only one part that i can think of is humor lol, maybe more, but then again, victorias ditsiness is pretty funny.
