Hellsing - Page 2

Cannibal Clown · Aug 26th, 2002, 03:10 PM

Yeah, i just got my first taste of hellsing as well. I think it kickas ass, but it took me down $31.64 for three epidodes! That's highway robbery! But it was worth it, can't wait to get the rest of the series.

merylsilverburg · Aug 26th, 2002, 07:59 PM

Good news people! There's going to be a second season of Hellsing starting around December or January!

Hooray! *celebrates* For those of you who've seen the entire thing, I hope this will bring relief!

EDIT: Special thanks to dear Bowevel for giving me the news.

Cannibal Clown · Aug 28th, 2002, 12:26 PM

Sweet ass! I was so dissapointed when i heard that it was only 13 episodes long, after seeing the first dvd. I was like, something like this needs to be longer. That just isn't enough. So even though i still have the rest of this series to finnish up, the second season will be real cool too.

C'mere. You like Hellsing? Huh, do you? Well, I got the inside stuff on what you might want. Like the release date of V. II. Blood Brothers. What would you say if it's this Tuesday...yep....THIS TUESDAY. What a non believer?

What would you say if I told you you can get your hands on V.III-Search and Destroy on November 12th? What...you want more. How's about a special edition VIII called the

Hellsing: Search and Destroy (V.3)-Limited Edition Action Figure Blister Pack.
Yep this bad boy comes with a special box which includes Alucard (or Arucards) action figure inside-and theres only going to be about 500,000 units of it sold in the U.S.

Heh, heh...*walks towards MADRUCKIS* Hell yeah, I love Hellsing, thanks for the info, man!!

I didn't know about the action figures with the volume 3.

Ah, that's okay, 'cause I already have figures of Alucard and Seras. Also, thanks for the info on Volume 2...you guys are gonna love this volume since it includes the episode where some real action begins.

Just watch and you'll know what I mean.

MADRUCKIS · Sep 11th, 2002, 09:01 PM

*gently strokes his.......Hellsing dvd

What can I say. Better than the first. I need to see Alucard go at it with that guy from Iscariot-Alexander again. Those two are vicious.

Frozen · Sep 12th, 2002, 05:44 AM

Those two are some of the bestest rivals I have ever seen.

A question for the public: Since I have already seen the whole series already, so I am not in a hurry to get the DVD's right now.... would it be wise to wait until all of the DVD's are released so I can get some special box or something like that?

I just want to own that series in DVD, but as I said, I am not in a hurry as for I've watched it already.

MADRUCKIS · Sep 12th, 2002, 11:16 AM

Well
Initially the first dvd was sold in a box set with space for the others....thats what I have. Dunno if there gonna release one with a different box.

merylsilverburg · Sep 12th, 2002, 01:32 PM

Frozen-sama, I don't think there's going to be any other box set or special set released, because like MADRUCKIS said, there's already a box that came with the first DVD.

MADRUCKIS, I know what you mean....I wish there were more battles between Alucard and Alexander.

Ah, while the rest of the episodes are pretty good, they become more and more confusing...

Frozen · Sep 12th, 2002, 11:52 PM

But you see, that's the marketing trick they always use on ppl... they make you buy their stuff from the beginning, individually,so it costs you more and so they get much more profit. And every body falls on that trick, always. What I fear is, what if the series does not turn out to be very popular over here? Publishers don't care at all if something is good or bad quality, as long as it's popular. And i don't know anyone IRL who has watched Hellsing except from myself. (and my step dad, I've shown him a couple of times

) I may be wrong about Hellsing's popularity, though.

I don't know, I think I'll wait. I'm a cheaparse, I know

merylsilverburg · Sep 13th, 2002, 01:00 AM

You may be right, Frozen-sama, but I have a feeling that Hellsing will be very popular in the US. I mean...first off, there's gory action, lots of it, there's blood, guts, vampires, morphing, kick-ass characters, an interesting plot, great voice acting...I mean, no offense to anyone, but you have to admit that it's these characteristics that most American audiences look for. Compared this to Fruits Basket, a shoujo story which is being licensed by the DBZ company and about to be released in the states, I'd say that Hellsing has a better chance of being popular. I don't even see why Fruits is even being licensed. Shoujo stories are considered so dumb in the states, while in Japan, it's the number 1 anime series of the year. You get what I'm trying to say, right? As long as there's action and a good story, it's bound to be popular.

Frozen · Sep 13th, 2002, 01:27 AM

Oh, I know that such a piece of art will definitely be popular sooner or later!!! What I mean was, that I don't think it's so popular right now

But well, remember what I told you what happened to me with the LOTR DVD's ? I bought the first thing they released, but the arseholes are going to release the extended version as well. I should have just waited to buy that one, you know? Well, that's what I fear with Hellsing, something similar. Might find the whole complete collection together for a lower price than if I bought each DVD individually (and I think it's way too expensive a DVD just with 3 chapters, come on.. i know it's Hellsing, but.... just 3 chapters?

)

merylsilverburg · Sep 13th, 2002, 06:46 PM

I knew you were in fear because of the LOTR incident.

Well, it's not surprising to me that they only fit 3 episodes in a DVD....I mean, they are trying to make a profit, after all. But, still....I think that once they come out the boxset along with the first DVD, there'll won't be anymore special editions or all that. Only if they come out individually first (like Evangelion or Rurouni Kenshin) and if it's really popular, then they will have a special boxset to fit everything in. Since Hellsing only has 13 episodes and not the usual 26, they came out with the boxset and that's that. At least IMO.

EDIT: And if you guys think that piling 3 episodes each in a DVD is bad, you should see what the Japanese makers do. For the raw Japanese DVDs of The Big O they fit only 2 episodes into each DVD except the first one which contained only 1 episode, to make a total of 7 DVDs....all which are priced around 45 US dollars each.

Frozen · Sep 15th, 2002, 11:36 PM

Well, I'm sure they would make profit even if they put 6 chapters in each DVD, they would make profit anyways. Oh well, that's how the industry works

How many DVD's are we talking about, again? 5? 6?

Well, probably I'll be changing of idea and buy them after all........
