And just like everyone else, they don't notice the "Walter is in Brazil." part.
Tis an underrated joke, but I always notice!
I dont get it. Explain please
its a good way to foreshadow for how long he was working with them as the abridge version doesnt have the scene were Walter gives Alucard his iconic black gun which was the OG hidden tell - as Alucard has that gun on him the whole time after that point onwards meaning the hidden bomb Walter detonates in their battle had to have been there from the start/plus the whole Walter "forgetting" he and Alucard fought the Millenium group and their attempts to make vampires during WW2 when Intra asked him about knowing any organized group powerful enough behind the valentine brothers attack.
@@nicobaumann2832 And in the Abridged universe, Integra said Alucard can take a vacation anywhere, other than Brazil. When someone from the organization goes to Brazil, things go bad.
Of course, that was also a ruse to get him to Brazil, as they know he will defy her wishes any chance he gets, to assert dominance, but the original point stands. Integra has reasons for not wanting people to go to Brazil.
I noticed that they missed some good jokes
The bit about the Major saying he called heads is really crazy, because the entire Schrodinger plan was a massive gamble. Either, they make Alucard truly unkillable beyond anything he was before, or Alucard enters a sort of limbo reality, which is what happens. It was a literal coin flip decision, and The Major called it right.
And it came about because Schrödinger literally cut off his head. That’s a twofer.
That line went hard as hell the more you understand it
I mean, technically he called it wrong, but it took a while and he died before that would become apparent.
You say that... He does eventually sort himself out. Post show Alucard can probably do some scary shit
But the coin landed on its edge
To explain what happened to Alucard after he absorbed Schrodinger, I'll explain it as best as I can. Basically, Schrodinger's powers make him onmipresent, allowing him to be both everywhere and nowhere simultaneously, so long as he can recognize himself. So when Schrodinger allowed himself to be absorbed by Alucard and his powers transferred to him, that conundrum was now multiplied by the millions of other lives and consciousness within Alucard, so with those millions of memories and lives he had to sort through, Alucard couldn't recognize himself anymore and faded from existence in some state between life and death.
the joke is "i called heads", but there is no coin flip.
schrodinger's ability functions on recognizing his own existence, which he cannot do while drowing in the storm of souls that is alucard, because suddenly the whole entity has schrodinger's ability, and none of the control over it.
as long as alucard has more souls than himself and schrodinger, he fails to recognize himself and vanishes.
They weren't sure that's exactly what would happen. So it was a gamble.
@@Yal_Rathol Because every screaming soul in there recognizes itself.
@@Yal_RatholThe "heads" actually DOES make sense, as it was a massive gamble. If Alucard always was able to recognise himself, then he would be unstoppable beyond what he is now, with no set number of lives (which he can collect from the souls of others, so he's still very killable. Difficult, but doable).
However, if he couldn't recognise himself, he would be stuck in limbo until he could, and with 500+ years of memories, he had a LOT to unpack. It was possible that Alucard may never be able to recognise himself, erasing him forever.
Nobody but Alucard could possibly know which answer is correct, but the Major placed his chances on it anyways. Each outcome was equally likely, hence the victory cry "I called heads!!".
@@Xeroph-5 Except the flip was very delayed and came up tails in the end. It was a hell of a gamble though and I respect it.
Girlycard was voiced by younger sister of Alucard VA, and he wasn`t happy about it because of all these moans
Not only that, but it made Taka abandon his characters romantic subplot in their dnd game because his sister is also the DM xD
@@aCatNamedGarbageyeah I'd gander that'd be uncomfortable
Where'd you hear this? Not saying you're lying, it just sounds weird he'd set up something he wasn't happy about... wasn't he a writer and also co-director with Scott for this series?
@@stardmg Not necessarily that he wasn't happy about it, just that hearing her say that makes him uncomfortable. Pretty sure anyone who has a sister would react the same. The only tfs content I have watched is this series so I can't give you an example, but on pretty much every video I see regarding these last two episodes I see someone commenting this, and that his sister will do the voice every once in a while to mess with him
@@stardmg Probably Taka his streams. He often brings up stuff from the TFS projects.
Also, Taka was the main producer of Hellsing ultimate. With Scott helping him with writing and editing.
It was his show first of all but like all TFS shows, its a joined effort.
"So Arthur's an *actual* daddy now..." So much to unpack there lmao
Also the fact that when Arthur became Alucard's steward he was probably still in the little girl form
Does that mean what I think it means?
@@matijasostojic4288 yeah. Arthur and Alucard were fuckin
The show actually explains why the Major was a cyborg, which is honestly pretty badass. After being mortaly wounded by soviet soldiers, the same kind of dark force that temped Alucard the first time started to draw a lot of blood near him, so he'd drink it and become an actual vampire. He, however, despises the idea of losing onself by absorving others' lives, so he just *willed* the blood away with a literal forcefield made of his will. Then the doctor managed to reach him in time, and since he refused to become a vampire the only way to prolong his life was making him a cyborg
I remember that moment, it made him such a great opponent to Alucard.
32:32 - That was a tape recorder. She recorded his dying breath just like Queen Betty wanted.
Indeed. That was a recording for Sugarlips.
I never caught that. That's funny.
never noticed that. lol
Alucard wrecked her like Diana one last time
@@mrroboshadow ... ... into a wall?
That shot of Seras is pretty infamous for being a *very* gratuitous pantyshot, so they went even further and made her accidentally go commando lol
The "Lock you in a crate and ship you to Abu Dabi" and "Every Monday with you!" was a reference to the Garfield comic strip. After the strip introduced a 'cute' new character named Nermal, Garfield would routinely lose patience with the overly adorable younger cat, seal him in a crate, and ship him to Abu Dabi. Fun little reference, if you're old enough to know it.
Yes, this IS a Garfield reference!
I thought Nermal was female for a looong time. I think it had to do with watching the cartoon too much as a kid and Nermal's VA sounded like a little girl.
@@Ravenforce3 Not going to lie, I thought the same for the longest time for the same reason. My brain just did not absorb the fact that Nermal was referred to as he in the cartoon, I just heard the voice and that was that. Then one day I was reading the newspaper for a class project, hit the funnies, and saw the "he" in there and was like... "Wut?"
38:45 fun fact. That's penguin0 or charlie. Love that he voiced a random soul.
Omg I can hear it now. I had no clue for years lmao.
They're all cameos, the next one is Akidearist
ALUCARD/SHRODINGER EXPLANATION: So many people can't grasp what happened. So here's a quick and easy explanation: Millenium knew that defeating alucard has a 0% success rate. They literally couldnt. So they created a vampire that could either exist, or not exist, based on whether it was observed. A 50/50 chance. When alucard consumed shrodinger, all the souls inside of him could also see shrodinger, so shrodinger must either exist or not exist. And as Alucard also takes the powers of those he consumes... same goes for him. So suddenly, as he was observed by the souls within him, ALUCARD suddenly can only exist or not exist. 50/50. So while millenium had a 0% chance of getting rid of alucard, now they have a 50% chance of him just vanishing from existance. They did ALL of this... for a 50% chance. As the major said: "I called heads." He gambled. He won.
Didn't the major explain it
@@cracyzero666rat He did, but so many people still get confused by it. The proper Ultimate series takes some time to develop Schrodinger, so it is less confusing there.
The doktor is the reason the major is a cyborg, he saved his life years ago and that's just how he kept him alive.
Aw, he Ship-of-Theseus’d him.
So much for a glorious ‘death.’
I believe TFS got a lot of the plot pretty well across, but they did change some of the characters quite a bit. In the shows, Aucard is the serious one and Searas is the comic relief, the shows tend to take themselves pretty seriously where this one doesn't, and finally I believe this was TFS's Halloween Specials.
I’m just gonna let ya know, Schrödinger is a catboy, not a catgirl.
"Is that boy-girl bugging you?"
they actually say it several times in the show but the guys I guess refuse to believe that lol.
He is, but isn't at the same time.
Return of the why boner
He does mention that Seras and him "would make beautiful children."
Fun fact: the voices of both Alucard and "girl Alucard" are actually siblings!
Takahata has a sister
@@snipersougo13 They were wise to hide her from us; now their failure is complete.
@@thesuperdak7224 she’s also the DM of the Unexpectables DnD series on Twitch and RUclips! 😊
@@thesuperdak7224 Monty's been a public figure for years, she's the main DM on the Unexpectables twitch channel. Though not in the Fallout style game Lani's a player in.
She does however play an ORKY HUMIE in the second Orktober they did.
So a quick explanation: Warrant Officer Schrödinger can be anywhere and no where, and he can only exist as long he is self aware. Since hes mind got mix with 3 million others souls, he was no longer self aware of hes existence, and since Alucard gain other vampires powers he sucks inside of him, that down side of Schrödinger power also affect him.
This also stands as one of thous rare moments when villain actually wins. Even if its just temporary.
13:45
Hellsing Ultimate was a 10 episode OVA. Each episode was around an hour long. Hence why there is so much material per video. They had an hour to work with for each episode.
So it was basically a it was 27 episodes long.
The opening scene of Episode 9 uses footage from the 2001 anime adaptation of the series. Unlike this series, which was an OVA series animated by Madhouse (longer episodes around 44-60 minutes), this first adaptation was a standard 13-episode anime animated by Gonzo. However, since the manga had only just begun in 1998, the 2001 anime quickly diverted from its story and went into its own storyline with its own ending, similar to other anime that got too close to their manga like Soul Eater and Fullmetal Alchemist (the 2003 series).
To be fair, I think the 2001 anime is better story wise.
@@hunterackerman1697 well, it's okay to be wrong
I love the first anime soundtrack. It is so different to listen to. Bodhisattva Cathedral is my favourite song. The animation and following the manga story make the OVAs amazing but in my opinion the anime had the best soundtrack. They use a lot of the songs in the abridged.
Despite the title in the 1st show being shown as simply “Hellsing,” the actual title is actually “Hellsing: Impure Souls.”
Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate are basically an FMA FMAB situation. First series was popular but changed the story. Second series follows the manga and improves the animation.
...And also completely butchers the early chapters because anyone who watches the later must be a fan of the former, right ? thus some of the best scenes and character development are stuck in the "inferior" version whilst the shiny one skips entire beats to get us through the motion and get to "the good part" quicker...
Despite the title in the 1st show being shown as simply “Hellsing,” the actual title is actually “Hellsing: Impure Souls.”
Fun fact
In WW2 when Alucard and Walter worked together they tagged teamed the werewolf and the wolf actually soloed them
They had to retreat from him
He actually went easy on Seras since he wanted to die
Yep, there’s a miniseries of it. Hellsing: The Dawn.
The traitoro joke just gets me everytime. Can't say why.
If you’re wondering the truth of Walter’s betrayal and transformation: he did work with Alucard back in WW2, but he was obsessed with killing vampires and the biggest one of all, his ultimate prize, was beyond his reach due to their alliance. So he long felt like he lost his chance after Alucard was locked away again and Walter was no longer in his prime, not to mention that the #LifeHack was in the way. So when the Major stepped in and told him “Hey, I figured out how to turn off the cheats by tricking Alucard into expelling every soul he ate and give you a fighting edge”, Walter took his long awaited shot.
As for the reverse aging process, becoming a vampire surgically returns you to your prime, but it takes time. The process was severely rushed for Walter in this case, causing the anti-age thing to go into overdrive until he de-aged into dust (though Heinkel got the last shot in the abridged version).
So an interesting thing about this abridged version is that it was supposed to be a one-off Halloween special directed by Takahata101, Alucard’s abridged voice actor; however it got so much popularity they turned it into a yearly special for October. They actually didn’t know what personality to give Alucard until like the third episode so they just kept the cheeky smartass part from the last two as a basis.
Can’t wait for you to react to the original. Also never realized just how short this series was.
Always felt longer as ya know they came out yearly.
It's not that short if the episodes where the lenght of normal anime episodes it probably would be a 24 ep anime
I don't think the adaptation of 100 episode manga is sshort though
Thanks for this.
So, context:
When Integra when to school, Alucard went with her in that form and Walter mistook him for a girl, leading to lots of teasing.
And yes, Alucard killed every other soul in the original, losing his life-hack, but gaining cat boy powers.
The Queen asked Integra to record Major`s death and as we can see Integra didn`t forget about it
So basically they beat Alucard with quantum. Schrodinger's Cat is a thought experiment about how a given part of the universe might not be in a settled, definite state unless it's observed directly - that's why the catboy kept disappearing everytime nobody was looking, even after he was killed. Dead and alive at the same time. But when Alucard consumed him, he became aware of him, and absorbed his powers - including that Quantum Bullshit. So Alucard observed himself, and accidentally noped out of existence until he could get a handle on it.
They do explain why he a cyborg was that when the Russian took Berlin the major was beaten to death and left to die and was offer to take hell gift and become a vampire. Through pure human will he rejected the gift and the Doctor came and save his life making him a cyborg
There was something special about waiting every October/Halloween for this.
And then the anime given us two episodes in the same year (9 and 10) that was magical 🥲
Alucard/Dracula was captured by Dr Van Hellsing, trapped in their deepest dungeon for generations, and it was their ''Trump Card'' in a way, to slaughter any supernatural threat that was too big for them to handle, but he actually fell for Integra, it's implied she remained a virgin so that Alucard could turn her someday, a human can only be turned if they're a virgin in Hellsing, or givning a normal person some Vampire DNA, but in this case, they won't have supernatural abilities like Alucard or Seras.
The Major being a cyborg was essentially him wanting to retain his humanity in order to defeat Alucard as Alucard proclaims only a human should end him
I only just noticed that they reversed the explanation of Schrodinger's powers to match the actual paradox. It's actually that Schrodinger's powers make it so he's always simultaneously "everywhere and nowhere", and wherever he chooses to recognize himself to be is where he appears physically.
The reason he appears and disappears (and dies and lives) at will is because the moment he loses awareness of himself he turns into "imaginary numbers"; so all he's doing is shifting his awareness of himself to another location. The problem for Alucard is that he needs to be aware of Schrodinger's existence in a given location, or he turns into "imaginary numbers" (the major's description), and he has three million other souls making that difficult.
Alucard and Integra were already a power couple in the original but they really emphasize it in the abridged and I love it.
I f*cking love the major.
Such a fun character 🤣
His actual "I love war" speech is fucking great.
Fun fact the number of dead is actually the amount of subscribers TFS had at the time
The Abridged version didn't explain it well, but Schrödinger only exists as long as he's aware of himself. When Alucard absorbed him, he was mixed in along with the millions of other souls Alucard consumed, so he could no longer recognize himself and ceased to exist. And since he had become part of Alucard, Alucard ceased to exist too. He had to rid himself of all the other souls inside him except Schrödinger in order to gain self-awareness again in order to return to reality.
Schrodinger is unique among the cast, and anime characters in general, for being a living physics paradox.
What's funny is that ,on the long run, this only powered up Alucard further. Thirty years later, free of all the other 3 million souls, he'd taken control of Schrodinger's paradoxical ability.
Now with omnipresence powers, capable of showing anywhere, anytime, Alucard was oficially invincible.
If you want to go deeper down the abriged route goblin slayer abriged and s.a.o are both fantastic.
Edit.. in hindsight you're better off with Goblin Slayer because Sao is very 50/50 about copyright.
I agree with this 100%, both series are hilarious
Did someone say... GGGGYYYYYYAAAAAAWWWWWBLLLIIINNNNNS?!
Personally I'd send them to Code Ment and None Piece
Goblin Slayer Abriged is meh. Some parts are genuinely funny, but it loses steam after a few episodes in. Also, (spoilers incoming) the Abridged Goblin Slayer's tirade about Sword Maiden having to be "stronger" in the face of being captured, tortured, and r*aped left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm not saying I would (or do) judge people for enjoying it. I just don't think it's as funny as people say, and that scene was pretty fucked.
@@richardsinclair7661 he was more criticizing her for putting others in danger and tricking them instead of actually getting help directly.
I would explain what happened with Alucard disappearing but best for you to watch the anime it is well worth the watch and watching you guys react to this series was a treat glad you guys enjoyed it all the way through
The captain (aka werewolf dude) wants to die. Like the major said earlier they want glorius deaths. That is why cheers when Seras kills him, a d also gives her the means to kill him
If y'all watch the full video of the Alexander Anderson song, tack-on the Helsing Christmas Special to the end of that!
Fun fact: in this version, Alucard spent 30 years basically being a therapist to the souls he consumed before being blipped into oblivion. In the manga and OVA, it wasn’t as wholesome…he spent 30 years killing each and every soul in order to get back home, hence Integra’s comment on “couldn’t you have just killed them all?”
The voice actor for Sao abridged was actually in this, he was the Vatican member in the last episode who asked "didn't we give them the cyborg technology". The Sao abridged was done by "something witty entertainment"
Oh yeah, all of TFS are huge anime fans. Series writer KasierNeko in particular (Scott Frerichs, voice of Trunks, King Kai, Yajirobe and Pip (replacing his first voice actor after an ep or two) is a massive weeb, even the other TFS members poke fun at him for it.
So as yet another attempt at explaining what exactly happened:
Schrodinger's cat, as Big Bang Theory fans will know, it's a paradox in which something can have infinite possibilities as long as you don't get a clear answer, in the theory of that name, if you put a cat in a box and leave it there, is it alive or not? Is it even still in the box? Only by acknowleding the box and then opening it, you know the result. It's a simple explanation, but bare with me. That's essentially how and why he was able to get killed and just appear/dissappear somewhere else
The Major's entire plan was to defeat Alucard, that is the canon reason for his existence in the show, to beat the ultimate OP character, and the only way to do so was to force Alucard into absorbing the souls of everyone who died in this war, and during his "BIG SIP", Schrodinger would kill himself and fall into the blood, without Alucard's notice. So when both of them connected, Alucard would begin to question his existence and the most likely result given the millions of souls inside of him, he would not be able to acknowledge himself, causing him to banish for 30 years until he was able to find himself.
Problem is, again following the paradox, he didn't dissappear out of existence, he couldn't acknowledge his own existence. So in both Abridged and canon, what ends up happening is that Alucard spends 30 years getting rid of all the souls he absorbed, the only difference being that in Abridged, Alucard has a soul (vampires don't have one), and he helped the souls find peace (In OG he just kills them), with the only soul left being Schrodinger's, giving him his ability and thus, an even stronger #LifeHack since now, he has INFINITE lives. He just cannot die ever again. He is now really inmortal.
My favorite is Alucard's line in Ep. 8 about how it's only been a few days but it feels like years, in reference that Takahata101, who originally was doing the abridged outside of Team Four Star, wasn't able to work on it for that long because of other matters. Nice little meta reference.
I mean, it's because the time between episode 4 released (the last time he'd seen Anderson) and 8 released was 4 years.
A lot of people in the comments are explaining why Alucard disappeared in the original show, that Schrodinger only existed as long as he was aware of himself and Alucard wasn't aware of him with all the other souls in the way but I think the opposite is true in the abridged series.
According to the Major's explanation, it seems like, in the abridged series, Schrodinger behaves much more like the original Schrodinger's Cat paradox where he has basically infinite potential as long as he's unobserved. When Alucard consumed him, he gained his power and, because he and Schrodinger (and, given how he escapes, the other 3,424,866 souls) were now observing each other ("as our dear cat-boy stares into the abyss that is within Alucard, that abyss stares back"), the paradox failed and Alucard was forced to either definitely exist or definitely not exist, it became a coin-flip, a 50/50 chance either nothing would change or he'd cease to exist, and the coin came up in the Major's favour.
That's why he had to purify himself of all those souls to escape, he had to be completely unobserved in order to regain the paradox and let himself exist again.
It's not entirely clear to me why he also had to do the same for his own soul, though, it's the one part that doesn't fully fit into my theory so I might be wrong but it's the best theory I can come up with.
I just love the fact that if you listen closely you can hear the hamster and the wheels slowly stop 😂
"Was this also the folks behind SAO Abridged?"
Different group doing the project, but if you go back to the 3 Vatican reps at the end you'll hear Kirito's VA is the new one. TFS and Something Witty Entertainment have both done some crossover voice-work with each other's work.
TFS, SWE, and Project Mouthwash are the major Abridged Groups (LK is primarily a solo project) and they will often work together on each others' projects.
All the female lines from Gal-ucard
Were voiced by Takahada101’s sister.
Apparently, with some of the lines that she gives, he asked her to never say them again again like that.
Yep! He rewatched it on his Twitch channel and even with a v-tuber model,you could FEEL how uncomfortable he was
Fun fact, the number of people Alucard was “getting some sip” from was the exact number of subscribers Team Four Star had at the making of the episode. Also, SAO Abridged is done by Something Witty Entertainment and both companies occasionally collab with each other, for example, one of the members of the Vatican at the end was the same guy who voices Kirito and in SAO Abridged, the two main story villains were voiced by Taka and KaiserNeko
+ Becky, the definitely not racist soul Alucard talked to, was most likely the voice actress for Asuna in SAOA.
Huh. I could have sworn they included the Majors backstory in the abridged version. Guy is basically the polar opposite of Alucard. He despises the idea of giving up his humanity so much, he force of willed the devil away to reject becoming a vampire like Alucard when he was dying in WW2. He extended his life with cybernetics just to get a chance at killing Alucard, the most disgusting example of a human in his eyes.
(Alucard even agrees with the Major: it's why he got so mad at Anderson becoming a monster to try and kill him)
The bit with integra giving the order to attack Walter is so good in the series. Her phrase was ' search and destroy'. Meaning let loose to Alucard. He asked her to say it, to order him to kill Walter. Even Walter demanded she say it so did the general
Well by logic the next Abridged too watch would be "Final Fantasy 7" Abridged. Thats what i went for after watching Hellsing abridged
SAO Abridged is by Something Witty, but the two groups have worked together and have actors who have worked on projects with each other. Izzy (Kirito abridged VA) is in Hellsing, Final Fantasy Machinabridge, DBZA, Fate Stay Abridged (Project Mouthwash), and Goblin Slayer Abridged (Grimjack). The TFS crew has worked on projects with various other groups and has members who are working as VA in dubbing anime and games. Its a fun trip finding out when you hear them in new things like DBZ Xenoverse.
One of the things I love most about this series is that, because of it's long release schedule, the folks making it had so much time to grow. You can tell that the first episode has that "dbza season 1" feeling, like they were just padding the runtime with jokes and references that were funny at the time, but by episode 10 it's damn-near it's own purposeful interpretation of the original series.
Each episode of Hellsing Ultimate is about 45 min long, so each one is at least twice as long as an Abridged. That's how the whole story fits into 10 episodes.
If you've ever played OG FF7, their "Machinabridged" is definitely worth a watch and basically drips with nostalgia!
Maybe not something for you guys to do for the channel, but yall should watch the commentary video TFS did for Hellsing Abridged-- they cover loads of behind the scenes stuff like jokes that didn't make it into the series, stuff about Hellsing itself, actual industry voice actors who lent their voices for parts in the show, and so much more.
"So they basically did an episode a year, for about a decade." Well, yeah. They did skip a year, IIRC either between 7 and 8 or between 8 and 9, and 9 actually got copyright struck for including an OP from another show (Friends, I think?) towards the end and was delayed for a another months while they fixed the issue. Writing this at 23:59, btw.
Edit: yep, it was Friends.
For the schrodinger bit, everytime they were killed the moment no one was observing them they lived again in a perpetual state of living and death. But once alucard ate them, they could no longer exist in that fluctuating state and so it was a coin flip between they exist, or they don't exist. The major won the coinflip of 'they don't exist' and since they were part of Alucard, that means Alucard doesn't exist which is why he disappeared
Schrödinger’s cat is an experiment that involved putting a cat in a box with a concealed container of poison and closing the box for one hour. Within that hour, the container of poison is rigged to open at a random point in that time and will fortunately kill the cat.
The point of the experiment is that while no one knows when the container will open, they also don’t know whether the cat is dead or alive. In that spend of one hour, the cat can be considered both dead and alive, only by knowing the outcome by opening the box.
In hellsing, officer Schrodinger has been killed, but they can only stay dead as long as they’re being observed, if not observed they are considered both dead and alive, allowing them to remain alive
An original episode was about 40min so yes very much was cut out
There is indeed more TFS to watch. The last they Abridged was Final Fantasy 7. That's right, you can Abridge Video Games as well and in TFS fashion, they nailed. It's got 4 Seasons and a Movie. However, since you guys record in advance, I would also like to let you know of the Bloopers they did. I recommend watching 1 them after each Season because each Bloopers Video covers a Season.
With all of that Commented, I hope you guys consider giving this a watch. It's got that TFS quality Comedy and very emotional and serious moments.
20:47 That female voice is the younger sister of Takahata101, who voices Alucard. Apparently, when he heard that recording, he was so disturbed that he didn't want her to say it ever again XD
Oh dang, how did I miss you guys starting this series a couple weeks ago?
I've gotta go back to the start, now!
Aaand I just watched the whole thing in one sitting.
It's still so much fun!
my best friend was roommates with the people who did SAO so I got to meet them regularly, also Hellsing Ultimate was and will forever probably be my favourite anime and I highly recommend watching the actual episodes. Side note: the Hellsing anime with 13 episodes was an earlier version that was highly censored and they made up their own story line and characters where as Ultimate is nearly a scene for scene recreation of the manga, which only had 10 volumes
Female Alucard is played by Monty Ohm, the little sister to Alucard's voice actor Takahata.
It may be only 10 episodes but the first one is 45 min long and they get longer each episode. Thats how they're able to fit all the content in 10 episodes.
Now all that's left is the Christmas special and the full Alexander Andersen song.
The original Hellsing's underlying theme (vaguely referenced but never addressed by the abridged series) is the question of humanity, represented by the phrase "That which slays a Monster must always be a Man." Alucard may revel in the carnage he wreaks, but his ultimate goal is peace and rest; Alucard wants to die. Unfortunately, because he rejected his humanity and embraced becoming a Monster, he was cursed to roam the world inflicting suffering, only to discover it brought him no satisfaction from the traumas which lead him to turn his back on the world.
THIS is why Alucard was so pissed at Anderson and Walter for making the choices they did, becoming Monsters themselves to try and level the playing field. But Alucard knew they wouldn't be able to stop him and would only be damning themselves to the same existence as him. This is also why the Major refused to embrace vampirism like the rest of Millennium, clinging to his fears, ambitions, weaknesses, and the resolve to overcome them are the true markers of Humanity (also why he saw robotics as not being the same as the Monsters).
In the end, this holds true: Alucard slays Anderson before he can complete his transformation, Heinkel shoots Walter, and Pip is the one to put down the Captain. I honestly think this is also why Alucard returns to Integra after purging himself of his souls: she could be the one to finally give him the peace he feel he doesn't deserve.
Hellsing Abridged truly is amazing! I've rewatched this so many times :D

"How is this whole anime only 10 episodes?" Because each episode of Hellsing Ultimate is an hour long at least.
Over 3 million souls in 20 years. I'm sure he got better at it the more he talked, but that's some seriously quick therapy sessions.
This was so good, I've forgotten SO much about this, granted I stop watching a while back and I deeply regret that XD
Fun fact: the female voice for Alucard was done by Takahata's(Alucard's VA here) sister
I just realised the Two Piece Buffy reference was actually two references. One being the vampire hunter and not clicking with Integra. The other being a nod to Naruto’s successor Boruto. Th main character just with a B. How did it take this long for me to get that!?
That "very fine people" quote aged like milk even when it came out.
During DBZA and Hellsing Abridged, TFS had an abridging competition. That led to a lot of interest in the community and brought together Something Witty Entertainment who did SAO Abridged.
12:08 I know it’s not as crazy as the other stuff Alucard does, but racking that pistol with his teeth will forever be scarily impressive to me. Like, can you imagine how hard you would have to bite a steel handgun slide that long and heavy in order to not slip while overcoming the recoil spring of a .454 Casull semi-auto, cock the hammer, and rack a round with said teeth?!
They were 10 1 hour episodes. It was an Ova setup, they have a ild hellsing series which was more loke a series. There suppose to be making a remake and a new series.
Sword art online abridged is done by a channel called something witty entertainment, they also do my hero academia abridged. However, memebers of team four star do voice work on both shows
I said it in the first reaction bulk...Hellsing Abridged i think is their best project altogether. While the highs of DBZA are monumental and left an impact for Internet Culture, i think Hellsing is consistently better in terms of pacing, editing, performance and creative choices, to the point where i consider it a much stronger project from TFS.
As for "what next?" the last BIG project TFS did was FF7 Machinabridged, which i think it's worth checking out. But there's also HFIL and the bittersweet case of Unabridged.
SAO Abridge is done by Someting Witty Entertainment. Though the abridge voice of kirito (YamatoSFX) cameoed during the last episode as Antonio
Ah, the appearance of Girlycard! Remember, "I was a chick in the 40s" and the speech with the Queen: "Reminds me of when I'd keep your bed warm during the Blitz," and then later he said, "I'm pretty sure if I was remembering correctly I was a girl...." After which one of the council said, "Wait, that implies that the Queen--"
Was at least bi-curious. So Alucard as Girlycard was guarding Queen Elizabeth and at the very least sleeping in the same bed, lol.
Machinabridged! Here we come! At least I hope!
Fun Fact: The sword had a better chance at working than the bullets did. For whatever strange reason bullet proof glass does excellently against a blunt impact like a bullet slamming against it but it does a significantly poor job against piercing damage like lets say a pickaxe or a sword. It's really depends on the thickness how high it's rated for but with a very well made pick axe hitting it the right number of times you'll break through before someone shooting it. That's one of the 2 things I've learned from years of watching ADHD's World, 1, Don't shoot WD40. 2, Pointy things are OP against bulletproof glass.
The episodes in the original are longer than average (40-50 minutes or smth), so the anime doesn't feel hurried at all. It leaves little if anything out. The abridged goes a whole different path, adding couple of really baller lines and by-passing a lot of cool moments and replacing the more dramatic moments with comedic ones. I hope you watch the OVA, it's wholly its own separate experience and having seen it or the abridged doesn't subtract from the other
It's not shown in here that often, but the Naz| warewolf has the same transformation as Alucard "dog" 😢.
And I also respect that guy a lot, wolf 🐺 for president 🎉
When asked why they did the pantsless Serras joke Taka responded “They didn’t stop me”
Every Monday and Abu Dabi; they are references to Garfield.
-SAO was another group but taka the voice of cell and alucard was a voice actor in it.
SAOA is done by SomethingWittyEntertainment. But both them and TFS worked together on stuff. The Catholic dude at the end talking about the cyborgs with the high pitched voice is from SomethingWitty he does the voice of Kirito in SAOA.
You don't realize just how short this show is when you only get a new episode once a year. I was 12 when I started watching tfs stuff. This show was a yearly tradition for me and my brother around Halloween. By the time it ended I was in college. I really miss those days.
While this was an abridged of the Ultimate series, they actually did use clips from the first Hellsing anime. The whole sequence with child Integra meeting Alucard, for example. The original was produced while the manga was still being written, so they had no choice but to go their own way with it. No Nazis, just a cult, and they deviated right after the Valentines.
Also, I'm living for these guys' gender confusion over Schrodinger. I know it's part of the point of his character, but the fact they're still calling him "her" this late in the series is pure gold!
If you're wondering why there's only ten episodes, it's because each episode is the one hour long
"I want to make reaction videos"
Hits every reaction channel hard
SAO Abridged is a different channel altogether however Taka (voice of Alucard) and cofounder of TFS) did voice one of the characters for abridged and the co founder of Some Witty Ent (Kirito voice actor) appeared as one of the priests at the end of this episode
Hellsing Ultimate is basically "Hellsing Brotherhood", they didn't derail the story halfway through into an anime-only ending like the original did.
Ultimate skips a handful of Vampire of the Week situations early on and goes straight to the manga plot that matters for the previous anime (The Valentine Brothers had a completely different reason to attack, which was the linchpin for the original anime derail)
when alucard drinks her blood he also stops being her servant. thats vamp rules.
