Hanime on Anime

Well, ladies and gentlemen, October is coming to a close.  And that means one of two things.  One: Halloween is coming up; and two: it’s time for Hanime on Anime’s Character of the Month!  This month’s character was a given.  Then again, he is from Hellsing , which has been the talk of the blog lately.  So yes, if you can’t tell who it is by now, this month’s Character of the Month is the one and only Alucard-as mentioned in my Hellsing Ultimate review. Alucard takes on two different roles in both the anime and the OVA.  In the anime, Alucard takes on a very light role as being the top field agent of the Hellsing Organization, servant to Integra Hellsing, and the vampire responsible for turning former police officer Seras Victoria into a vampire.  In other words, Alucard is not the main character of the anime.  However, Alucard becomes more involved-and in fact is at the forefront-in the OVA.  Still holding the title of top field agent for the Hellsing Organization, Integra’s serva

Greetings ladies and germs!  It’s that time again, not just for a post, but for a long overdue discussion post.  For this week, this post will be taking two shows and seeing which one is the Ultimate.  Noting the pun I just made, in honor of the release of the last two episodes of Hellsing Ultimate , this week I will be taking a look at Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate and seeing which one is better. First Up: Hellsing Ultimate So first in this duel is Hellsing Ultimate .  Now seeing that I recently reviewed this OVA series, I’ve done a simple copy and paste from the post: “Hellsing Ultimate takes place in modern day England.  The Hellsing Organization, a secret program run by the Queen of England to kill monsters-particularly vampires-, has been dealing with a series of bizarre vampire attacks.  In one of these attacks, Hellsing’s top agent Alucard-who happens to be a vampire and is also one of the most bad-ass characters in anime-kills a police woman named Seras Victoria

Salutations ladies and gents!  You know what time it is!  And in continuation with this month’s Halloween theme, I’ll be doing Another horror anime review-should this not be a clue?  Now last week I know I said that Hellsing Ultimate was one of the goriest animes I had ever seen.  Well… I kinda lied.  Now, this week’s anime is one of the goriest I’ve seen.  Why? I’ll get to that in a minute.  In the meantime, let’s get to the review on this week’s horror anime, Another . Another centers around Koichi Sakakibara, who transfers to Yomiyama  Middle School in his hometown of Yomiyama.  While he’s there, he meets a girl named Mei Misaka, who wears an eye patch on one eye and seems to appear and disappear without warning.  After this encounter, a number of strange and horrific deaths start to happen among Koichi’s classmates and teachers.  Koichi and his classmates learn that a curse plaguing the class for nearly thirty years is responsible for the deaths.  This becomes the central plot

Hello ladies and gentleman!  It’s Sunday again, so here I am.  As many of you are already aware, Halloween is coming soon.  So to commemorate the occasion, I will be doing some Halloween inspired posts-one of them being a long overdue discussion post.  So anyways, onto this week, I will be reviewing by far one of the goriest, grittiest, and most graphic animes I’ve ever seen.  But it is also one of my all-time favorites.  So, I’ll keep you from waiting and get on with my review on the bloodbath of anime, Hellsing Ultimate . Hellsing Ultimate takes place in modern day England.  The Hellsing Organization, a secret program run by the Queen of England to kill monsters-particularly vampires-, has been dealing with a series of bizarre vampire attacks.  In one of these attacks, Hellsing’s top agent Alucard-who happens to be a vampire and is also one of the most bad-ass characters in anime-kills a police woman named Seras Victoria and turns her into a vampire.  Seras finds all of this new
