New Hellsing DVD

(Aaargh. I wrote a post and when it finally uploaded it was blank!)


"You are less than inhuman. A pitiful defect, a failed science project. Sending you to your maker would be an act of mercy. Your regeneration power's impressive, but I bet if I put enough bullets into your skull you will stay down for good. So let's cut to the chase. Start begging." - Alucard, Hellsing

I just found out that there is going to be a new Hellsing anime series, which everyone is referring to as the OVA. Wiki tells me that stands for "Original Video Animation", which basically (in anime-speak) means that it goes straight to DVD instead of TV or anywhere else.

The official site for the new release is here, but all I can glean from it is that the DVD will be out on 9th December. Can't figure out any more because the rest is in Japanese - so that may well be the Japanese release date and the rest of us have to wait ages more.

The only other thing I've heard about it is that apparently Seras' breasts are even bigger than in the original series! 8-|

Yay for Alucard!!!

I for one will be looking out for the release date.
 
Did some more snooping. got this from the anime network:

According to the one-sheet, the "Hellsing Ultimate OVA Series" is "based on original comic." Reliable information that we have received from industry sources tells us that the series will be much more faithful to the original manga than the TV series. Also of note, while Gonzo's parent company, GDH, is listed as the Asian and European license holder for the OAV, they are not significantly involved in the production of the new series.

The one-sheet lists the episodes as 35 minutes each but does not provide any information on the number of episodes.
