    Is Hellsing worth dropping ?25 on?

    thinking about buying it, i normally wait for items to hit the magical ?17.99 mark

    Comment


      Depends which version. I hear the original isn't brilliant but the newer one, Hellsing Ultimate, is the one to go for.

      In other news I finished the first volume of The Guin Saga. It gets much better past the halfway point. And Guin is a pretty ace character. Probably the closest we'll come to a conan the barbarian type in anime (unless there already has been such a character ). But I did have Zero9x's comments in the back of my mind, so whenever his physique was being described I began to picture all sorts of wrong things . I'm tempted to buy the next few but I think I'll wait for the anime to see how much it covers of the first novel before proceeding. The way I picture it in my mind is probably 4 or 5 episodes worth. There's lots of action so it might be good for anyone looking for some fantasy anime. I'm picturing it as a more straighlaced Slayers in my mind (not quite as fun or captivating though). Not quite the epic stuff I was hoping for but I suppose that takes time to build up to. I might scan my copy in for others when I have the time(probably during April) if there's any interest. Unless it's already out there somewhere

          They are both worth picking up at that price. I liked the Hellsing TV series tbh.

            this one

            seems the price is the same everywhere

              Yeah, thats the tv series. Nothing like the manga mind and they seem to spurt milk for blood. Great series regardless, well worth picking up at that price. It cost me £55 when it first came out. But yeah, the Ultimate OVAs are 10 times better. Darker, more violent and truer to the source.

                So what's everyone looking forward to in the next season?

                K-on could be good but 4koma adaptations can be very hit or miss. Queens Blade could be entertaining if only because it'll be a fanservice fest.

                  Fullmetal Alchemist. Can't really think of anything else, but i'm sure there will be some others i will be following.

                  I finally dropped Michiko & Hatchin, a show with a very dull plot and characters. Shame really as Michiko is a really hot looking character.

                      if you dont mind me asking, do you buy any anime or is it all the fansubs

                      if you do, your anime collection must be fantastic

                      i dont have the time to download anymore than 3-4 items at once and when i eventually join my next unit i wont be able to download anything

                      Comment


                        Mostly Download mainly cos its all new stuff i would never get to see for 1 or 2 years if at all, i find i can download everything i watch by setting 1-3 eps downloading while i go off to work, i don't download games, films or music(well music sometimes) so my usuage isn't insane. Only time i buy is if its films or important series to me like Cowboy Bebop, Azumanga, GunBuster, Niea under 7 etc,etc. Last series i brought was Cromartie High School the box set a couple of months ago which was a really well done package.

                        I find the time mainly because i don't watch tv anymore(outside of Buzzcocks, Moftd/football, BSG) and i do sod all on a sunday .

                          my work will involve 6-8 months at sea

                          so no Anime from me when i leave, if it hits when FMA is on i will just cry

                            Its a dull story (H&M). I find the main plot chasing a bland boring guy no very entertaining.

                            I also think that the anime version of Valkyrie Chronicles looks like it has lost its flair judging from what i've seen of it. Humongous TITS.

                              I'd be surprised if you could find an anime these days that doesn't have a pair of humongous tits in it :P

                                No ****. It just makes it look generic, the plain look makes me go meh. Luckily i can still play the game instead.
