Japanese animation is known for its vibrant and captivating nature, appealing to both children and adults with its energy. I delved into this world a long time ago, exploring various genres, but my affinity lies particularly with horror.
My initiation into the Hellsing franchise began with the 12-episode anime series about a year ago during the winter. I was immediately drawn to its overall excellence — the atmospheric setting, compelling characters, and exceptional artwork. However, it's essential to note that Hellsing contains serious violence, making it less suitable for a family setting or for those sensitive to such content.
The narrative unfolds around Alucard, a powerful true vampire who pledges allegiance to the Hellsing organization led by the ruthless and intelligent Sir Integra. This dark tale intertwines with Integra's childhood, creating a unique and captivating storyline. The formidable force that is Alucard now serves the British Empire under the command of his young mistress.
This anime leaves a lasting impression on any horror enthusiast or Japanese animation lover. After watching the series, I highly recommend delving into the manga. It provides an equally interesting and spectacular experience, further enriching the Hellsing universe.
