Hellsing is a horror and action anime and manga combining
vampire mythology with modern technology and Christianity themes.
Hellsing, formally known as the Royal Order of Protestant Knights, is
an English paramilitary organization created to combat vampires and
other creatures of darkness that prey on the human population.
The Hellsing organization is led by the cold and cunning
Integra Hellsing, a direct descendent of Abraham Hellsing. Although
Hellsing employs trained soldiers and hired mercenaries to eradicate
ghoul infestations, the vampires themselves are monsters normal humans
can't hope to fight against no matter how well trained or equipped.
In these situations, Hellsing calls upon its trump card,
Alucard. Who is more suited to fight a vampire than a vampire himself?
Alucard is the ultimate warrior used to assassinate vampires; he is
deadly efficient and knows their powers and weaknesses. After all, he
is one of their kind. But Alucard is also one of the most powerful
vampires in existence and rumored to be the legendary lord of the
vampires himself. Just spell Alucard backwards.
However, a new breed of vampires has recently appeared.
Created through advanced biotechnology by a dark organization and
enhanced with mysterious transmitter chips, these artificial vampires
possess abilities which surpass anything Hellsing has witnessed in the
past. Their target? To utterly annihilate the Hellsing organization.
