YES! FInally!
I have been waiting for this for 3 years!! Hellsing Ultimate is by far my favorite anime series ever. The action, story, and characters are just amazing! The subs are good, but this is the best cast of voice actors I have seen overall. Crispin Freeman as Alucard just can not be beat if you ask me. His voice is freaking perfect for him. The others are also amazing. These episodes are when the action just gets beyond intense. A triangle of combat between Hellsing, Millenium, and the Iscariot is just incredible. If you like vampires or action anime check the other episodes out right now! You will be happy you did it. Trust me.
Great Value For The Price
Finally after all these years Hellsing is back on the U.S. market! For those who are coming new to the series, the U.S. branch of Genon went under a few years ago, and they stopped dubbing all of their projects. This pissed a lot of fans off because Hellsing is one of those really memorable dubs where the voice actors really it their parts, especially Crispin Freeman as Alucard, in fact I would go so far as to say Hellsing is the best English dub out there. Anyway Hellsing is back now with most of the original voice actors, now being dubbed by Funimation. This set comes out to about 11$ per movie, and you get the Blu-Ray and the DVD versions in one, great value. The Blu-Ray's are great quality, and the sound quality is crystal clear, it's been a long wait, but it was worth it!
Also it comes with a little cardboard insert so that if you decide to buy the I-IV set, it will slide right into the same box that this set comes with, very nice touch.
It's about time! However...
After waiting for a grueling four years, Hellsing fans finally receive ova's five through eight on blu-ray. Volumes nine through ten will no doubt come out in the third or fourth quarter of 2013. The dub compared to the Japanese audio is very well done but at some points the actors could have tried being louder. I have only two complaints about this blu-ray release. The first is that Hellsing the Dawn episode one is not dubbed. It is only in Japanese with english subtitles. Are you telling me Taliesin Jaffe who is the voice director couldn't find the time to dub the Dawn? That was a disappointment for me.
My last complaint was that Taliesin made the awful and rather, dumb decision to dual voice the characters Alucard, Zorin, and Seras on certain scenes. In the first four ova's the characters did not sound like that so why change them? In disc two in an interview, he stated that he wanted the characters to sound everywhere and not just in one spot. There is no option to...
