I don't know one way or the other about Twilight -- it might be giddy teen gibberish, but I've always had a weakness for over-the-top melodrama -- but I can tell you I did dislike the original Hellsing anim-thing (why the hell is everyone saying "animu"? Are we trying to deceive the 'bots again?).
And I disliked it because... well, nothing ever happened. Because Alucard wins every damn fight in one shot. And the vampires he fights are dumbass punks who were neglected by their parents and have angst issues (making them amazingly like the Twilight vampires). And I'm tired of everyone with their covert occult organizations and their conspiracy theories revolving around evil scientists trying to create artificial [insert random fantasy/horror creature here].
Honestly, even Trinity Blood's in on that racket.
Abel Nightroad's transformation ritual is a total ripoff of Alucard's. But I like Abel's better for some reason. Maybe because the thing he turns into has a name. And does something. Other than what he does when not in his super-thing form.
But I will give Alucard this: he does not brood. He might get grumpy, he might even frown disapprovingly, but he does not brood.
If we're doing comics, I'd like to see Seras vs. Bella. One on one.
...with Jell-O.
And I haven't seen the OVA yet because I want a legal copy I can watch on a DVD player because every sodding video I try to watch on the internet turns to gabble. And I'm trying to go legit in all my doings.
And Vampire Communists are cooler. Bleagh!

How 'bout vampire socialists?
The first four OVAs are/were available on DVD, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to find right now. FUNimation recently acquired the license to V-VII, so they might re-release the I-IV in some kind of economy package.

I found II easy enough. But I live within walking distance of a really big FYE.

FYE's are still around? I hope you got it during a sale.
That's actually not a bad place to start, since I is mostly retelling of the same story that the first six or so episodes of the TV anime covered, only way better.

Why is there no single box set for Hellsing Ultimate? Why must I buy each individual volume at $22 a pop? Someone please tell me I'm mistaken. Show me the light.

Because it's not complete yet. |

How 'bout vampire socialists? Vampire Khmer Rouge = giga-fail. And you could do a lot worse than Stephanie Meyers. I like a proper-sized woman. You should, too. |

Care to add it to the adding quotes on my facebook? XD I posted it on there too. I can't tell you how many times I've watched it, but it's still funny.
"So glad you came, but you're too late. everyone here is already dead! Except for this tart. But don't worry, I'm going to kill her too."
"Mhm."
"But first, I'm going to rape her!"
"Neat."
"But before all of that, I'm going to kill you!"
"Oh? That would be intimidating if you were...well...intimidating!"
"Are you mocking me?"
"No. No no no...psh. Yeah *BANG*"

That was... pretty fucking awesome. Thanks for sharing. This second one wasn't nearly as good, but it was done by a different group. |

No problem.
I'm waiting for TFS's second episode. Like you saw, there are others out there, but they are quite lacking.
