Fun fact: Alucard's Twitter account is real. They would post to it in character around the release of an episode (these were released yearly). And it still occasionally gets posts even after the show ended.
Hell bless diagetic promotional fun. Especially the $hit posing.
@TheCrimsonFuckr LOVES messing with the pope. And he's been through at least three of them. (IRL)
one of the most recent was tweeting about the death of queen Elizabeth. Fitting since the show is mainly based in London, even Alucard would pay his respects.
I follow the Twitter accounts.
@@fireblast133Well, he did fck the queen, so......
So the joke at the beginning is that TFS teased that they were gonna do One Piece for a while before the episode came out, then pulled a switcheroo. I think they also first aired it at a con
Ya, they did a good job of keeping it quiet too... So that moment at the con was the first the crowd heard about this project.
same with that Broly Movie but we got the best April Fool's joke 😂
Taka(Alucard) actually told a story about that, where they let a few One Piece Cosplayers sit in the front roll. When the reveal happened, apparently a Franky Cosplayer stood up and yelled “EVEN BETTER!”
Yeah, I was at Youmacon for the TFS After Dark panel that year. That shit was absolutely wild. Everyone was dying from laughter!!!
Father O'Mally'O'Connel'O'Carrol'O'Reilly'O'Brian'O'Sullivan is a completly normal and avarage name
"Who is also Italian" can't forget that part 😂
@@silentassason i am ashamed of my mistake
Is he also Italian?
You forgot the “who is also Italian” part
He keeps the names of his favourite children....
34:38 this scene is just Alucard flexing. He's drinking wine (the blood of christ) in broad daylight travelling over open water. The Police Girl has to travel in her coffin because that's supposed to be the only way a vampire can cross open water but Alucard's so powerful he's basically immune to most of the vampire weaknesses.
Its brought with him, he doesn't need to be IN it tho
also she isn't a full vampire at that point. Abridged leaves that part out, she is still a baby vamp.
You know the funny thing is, Jan, the guy with the eyeball hat, is only slightly exaggerated compared to his canon counterpart
In some ways he’s TONED down 😭
Oh the official version is so much more vulgar😂
@@slurpingmario8006Yeah man was straight wildin' in the actual show. In the abridged, his entire character is flanderized.
I love that he basically hasn’t changed
the only thing missing with him is the DEATH BY KONAMI!!!
The only abridged series that’s pretty much just like the original show while still being original
I really hope they watch the original as well at some point; genuinely great show that really knows how to put you on the edge of your seat. The abridged version is funny, but it seems to be the only thing people know about Hellsing these days.
Yup
@@The_SafeKeeperI mean that’s a good thing though. I knew about hellsing before the abridged series but most people I’ve seen watch the abridged series watched the original after
@@locusxe1411 i half agree. It's a nice introduction as it's like an appetizer, but at least a third of any comments or conversations regarding the main series ended up being about the abridged, and not that deep either more often than not.
I don't need someone to remind me that I like the abridged series and its humor by making whatever reference they can think of.
(Sorry if I come off as bitter, btw.)
@@locusxe1411 it is absolutely horrendous for the show, any and all discussion is completely drowned out by the abridged, hell i' d wager most "fans" have only ever seen the abridged
Takahata101 has described his version of Alucard as "Archer with superpowers" and I think that no description is more apt than that.
Holy crap... that's actually perfect, isn't it?!?
If you removed Alucard's powers, he would be rizzing up "Lana... Lana... LAAAAAANNNNAAAAAA!" right away.
"Danger Zone"😂
One of the things so few realize when they mention carrier pigeons... they only fly back to their place of origin where they were born and raised. Which means Alucard managed to get INTO the Vatican undetected, hatch a number of pigeons before taking them elsewhere so they can fly back with said letters...
Alucard is next level troll...
28:19 "Did it work?"
Considering Vlad the Impaler(the person Alucard is meant to represent) was able to scare off the entire Ottoman Empire's army just by sitting outside his territory eating dinner surrounded by a LITERAL forest of corpses...
Yeah, I would say it worked.
...Huh, now that is freaking awesome & terrifying.
“Meant to represent”? Have you seen the full thing? I don’t wanna say anything else to avoid spoilers for them lol
@@nuclearrylaw7616 Why do you think I *said it that way?* Now shush, you're giving the game away! 🤣
@@colt1903 my b lmao I had a feeling ngl but still lol
Allegedly the Sultan at the time upon seeing the forest of impaled corpses said something along the lines of "If only the man had a stronger country to rule he would've been a great ruler" or something like that
It is funny how Jan is basically exactly the same in both versions
if anything they toned him down in the abridged
@WhiteNoBeard471 that's... horrifying to consider
Sera interrupting Alucard and Anderson with a random tour group of seniors is basically how it went down in canon, with really only the dialogue slightly exaggerated. 😅
So bit of context; they tended to premiere these at Youmacon.
So the first one, everyone genuinely thought they were going to abridge One Piece until that hard cut to Hellsing.
And they released an episode only once a year on Halloween
Or tried to. The schedule of the later episodes shook things up when Taka had to move.@@wingedbluj1674
Not only did Alucard have a twitter account he celebrated when the pope at the time abdicated his position.
Alucard celebrating ratzinger's departure is absolutely brilliantly in character.
Fun fact: Jan and Android 17 have the same VA in the TFS abridged series lol
And Tien
Same voice even
@@wingedbluj1674 and Jeice
DBZA Broly and Walter are also the same voice actor.
The thing about the zombies is that you have to be a virgin to become a vampire. That's why the vampire priest was planning on raping the police girl
The most unrealistic part of the entire show is that Seras is a virgin.
Uh, didn't they imply the turks raped Alucard when he was mortal
@@Celestia282 considering her past i doubt she would even let someone be close with her
@@BekindBekbek Fr
@@BekindBekbekWhat do you mean? She had a perfectly normal past. She grew up in Leeds, and _nothing happened._
To answer boom.
No they cut aloota fat out of the Original Hellsing Ultimate cause it's a 10 epsiode series, each episode is only an hour long but if feels like you spend 3 hours watching each episode lol
I'm a huge hellsing fan and it all started here. The basic plot is, in an utopic universe where Abraham van hellsing once tamed Dracula and put him in his service he founded the hellsing organization and aided Britain in ww1 and 2 with Alucard, the tamed Dracula. The remnants of the nazis (who experimented with the supernatural) return and start ww3 by bitting the British up against the Vatican who aided the nazis in ww2. The artificial vampires of the nazi army create ghouls (zombies) while the paladins of the Vatican are headed by Alexander anderson. Nuff said so far, enjoy
i don't know if i'd describe it as "utopic" lmao
@@WhiteNoBeard471 sorry, distopic 😂
@@WhiteNoBeard471 I mean, _we_ don't have big tiddied police girls running around all busty like that. So that's ONE notch on the belt for them.
@@thescreengeek8915 I believe the word you're looking for is "dystopian"
Technically in hellsing I believe natural vampires create ghouls when they drain the blood of people of the same sex or non virgins of the opposite sec but make vampires when they drain virgins of the opposite sex. However artificial vampires just create ghouls no matter what
PLEASE react to Hellsing Ultimate, the actual series. PLEASE. I BEG YOU. The whole series is so bat-shit insane, and I love every second of it.
Would agree
Hellsing was the most famous Edgy anime of the time. It is really this bloody and violent. They just removed all the breaks with the language and added some amazing lines.
unless Attack on Titan and/or Berserk counts as edgy anime
The voice actor for Seras is great! He’s awesome and is funny as hell.
That’s right, keep forgetting he transitioned.
Good for him, hope he is doing good
@@Bookconsumer He absolutely is THRIVING over on the FourStarBento channel.
@@alchemicpink2392 awesome!
@@jeremytung1632thats not a thing
Another thing to note, this OVA anime had a crazy release date. In 2006, we got the first 2 episodes with 6 months apart, and then 7 months for the 3rd, 15 months later for ep 4. Episodes 5 through 8 came out on the same day 4 years later. Followed by another 2 years for the last 2 episodes. This series animation only gets better and better
Iirc thats because 3 different studios worked on it and that it was a monsterous undertaking with how much effort was put into the scripting and animation
Episode 3 has some of my favorite lines from Alucard. Obviously I memorized his latest letter to the pope, but "cheeky dickwaffle" is just fantastic.
I actually used another line of his in D&D not too long ago. We were fighting an adult red dragon, and I was the only one not hit by a breath attack.
"HEY DANDY-DICK!
...You missed!"
The dragon got mad and knocked me unconscious in a single shot after that. Still worth it.
I love when I don't have to go looking for peak, it just appears in my subs
Hellsing is an AMAZING series, one of my favorites. It's only 10 episodes, but each one is 45 minutes. There's two versions of it though, one that came out before the manga was finished that diverted from the manga's plot for obvious reason, and the canon accurate one, Hellsing Ultimate, that's the one you want to watch that this is based off of.
Highly recommend checking out the original show as well if you guys haven't seen it
That's Christopher Sabat, by the way, at the beginning of episode 3, going off on Alucard in his dream! 😎
11:51 fun fact during an Australian convention panel, voice actor of the abridged series, Lani, quoted his lines to hype up the crowd, and the amount of people that saluted……
Alucard in considered to be the Hellsing family's pet/guarded secret vampire agent. And Anderson is an experimental bioengineered regenerator agent. A living weapon/thing.
In others words, Protestant Vampire Vs. Catholic Frankenstein's Monster.
Oh god it's weird hearing Jesse's old voice now, ironic since I first became a fan of his because of the fem characters he voiced.
Thanks for the explanation about the "Aristocrats" joke. I've been watching Hellsing Abridged and the reaction videos to it for years, and I still never got that joke just now.
This series was how my wife and I bonded before we even started dating. She quoted it and I responded with the following quote. Our wedding was actually about two weeks ago. Our wedding dance was us going crazy to Andrew W.K.
Congrats 🎉
Alot of the voice actors in this are from dbza aswell
Alucard - taka (nappa,guru,cell)
Major - lani (krillin,vegeta,piccolo)
Yan - android 17
Luke - kaiser (trunks,zarbon)
"How's your health plan? .... APPARANTLY IT'S GREAT" is possibly the best line in the series.
yall should do the actual hellsing OVAs, its 10 episodes and its amazing
F*** the hell YES!
Been waiting painfully for this since the first time you mentioned this series' existence. Was very doubtful it would actually happen. Thank you so much!
Thanks for this.
So Ultimate got 1 season, but, it was abandoned halfway through, due to studio issues, so there was *7 year hiatus!*
(If I've got my dates right.) Fun fact, those pistols need inhuman strength to lift: 1 shoots silver, the other explosive shells.
The abridged verion only glosses over it and doesn't really explain this so I'mma explain some of the vampire lore of Hellsing (trying to not mention what information IS given in the abridged series):
The vampires in this universe all somehow originate from Dracula, who is still alive locked up deep in the soul of the vampire that goes by Alucard now and he is and always will be at the very top of the vampire hierarchy pyramid.
A new vampire is made when a vampire sucks blood from a *virgin* human, otherwise they're turned into ghouls...hence the abundance of ghouls. Plus a vampire is careful about who they turn...hence the rarity of vampires.
Vampires are nigh immortal in the sense that they can accumulate essentially the life force of as many people as they drink...it practically boils down to a reservoir of blood that every vampire magically stores inside of it which has to be all used up before it can truly be killed, otherwise they just regenerate (and Alucard/Dracula's "reservoir" is seemingly bottomless after like ~550 years of being a vampire).
A stake to the heart only paralyzes a vampire (making it the best and easierst way to kill ordinary vampires), they can jedi-mindtrick people into mindless submission, garlic repulses them, the sun quickly burns up their life force, their bodies don't age...all the traditional vampire rules apply in some way.
And Alucard specifically has mastery over all his powers that other vampires can only scratch the surface of (like turning into shadows for example, where others simply turn into mist Alucard morphs his shadows into helldogs covered in the eyes of his souls among other kinds eldritch horrors) or he has powers that other vampires simply can't do at all (Alucard can change his appearance, age and de-age his own body along with forming into the body of an accumulated soul or just flat out summoning it beside him...he's really just a conscious mass of souls that chooses to walk around as Ozzy Osbourne).
30:50 Yes, that is the English VA for Ainz Oal Gown in "Overlord", he also Voiced Cooler in the DBZ abridged series. A Coloured diamond of a VA if i may say. He has quite the royalty sounding voice, which fits perfectly for characters such as Ainz.
Fun Fact: The frenchman's last name, "Bernadotte" suggests he may be distantly related to the Swedish Royal Family. The French Bernadotte family became the royal family of Sweden in 1818 after the sudden passing of the previous crown prince of Sweden left a vacancy that needed to be filled, and it was believed Sweden would require a French marshal; so the position of crown prince was eventually offered to the French Jean Bernadotte, later known as King Charles XIV Johan of Sweden and Norway. (Though Norway is now independent and so obviously the modern royal family of Sweden is no longer the royal family of Norway.)
The Bird of Hermes is my name
Eat my wings to keep me tame
"How fucking powerful is he?!" Answer: YES
02:35 The connection might or might not be accidental - the phrase that Alucard uses to release his full power in the manga ("The bird of Hermes is my name, eating my wings to make me tame") in a real life poem that is said to be an encoded formula for the philosopher's stone.
And the way Alucard's vampiric immortality works seems very similar to FMA philosopher's stones.
welp. time to go for a walk
A very enthusiastic walk.
yall are funny as hell, i clipped so much of this just cause my friends found it hilarious.
Finally, someone gets the Aristocrats joke!😂
Hellsing is one of my all time favorite animes. It is a true master piece. You guys should really watch all of the anime and then watch the abridged. It's amazing
Hellsing Ultimate Abridged was originally posted to Takahata’s channel, roughly one a year around October, but after they all released, they moved them to the Team Four Star channel as episode bundles.
and the abridged is the censored version of "Hellsing Ultimate" if you are planing to watch the show after or while pls watch the ultimate version since the other. didn't have the balls to tell the real story. and they made a fake evil group of vampires as the bad guys... and bonus fact the twitter account was/is real and the tweet was made by TFS around that time...
The guns Jan was holding were custom P90s with silencers (which could be mistaken for barrels)
12:20 this is a references to another anime, Highschool of Dead, which is about a zombie apocalipse and the main characters are a group of highschoolers. So, basically they are saying that the zombie outbreak there happened because Alucard couldn't be bothered to actually do his job properly
happy to see you guys experiencing this 😂 make sure to organize all the hellsing vids into a playlist that way people can binge em 😉
God I forgot about how much I loved this when it was still in the works. "Jesus wants a hug!" is the first thing I think when I see that statue anywhere.
TeamFourStar was & is generally loved because of the quality of edited animation (They would go & edit extra things in, change lip movements to match the vocals etc), voice acting, memes they added into their different series and Trolling of the community that loved them. I.e. Hellsing Abridged was released every Halloween for years, but before that, they were teasing that their next big project would've been One Piece. Some of us copium huffers had hoped even after the reveal (first couple mins of this vid) that we'd get a One Piece Abridged... I mean imagine if that crew would've gotten into it, maybe we'd still get some god-tier comedy weekly/monthly/yearly.. Anyways, Hope y'all enjoy the ride; there's some other great Abridged content out there.
part of the context with the guns they use: the Jackal pistol Alucard uses ended up being too powerful of a gun for a normal person to be able to use. so its perfect for him and his vampire strength cus he can handle the recoil. which is why Seras has the anti-tank rifle as well. they go into more detain in the original anime but they touch on it in Hellsing Ultimate
The zombies (ghouls) are those who don't meet the terms and conditions to be turned into a proper vampire. Which is to say most people are turned into that instead of a cool creature of the night with will and mind intact.
The best abridged series
(At 26:20) I was LMAO from the scene, but what he says next… stepped it up
This is my favorite abridged series ever, have fun.
Please keep going with these! Like DBZA, every part of it in terms of voice work, writing, jokes (and of course the blood), just sky rocket in quality.
Big shoutout to Seras's voice actor. He's so cool, and an inspiration.
Everyone: *screaming and the ground filled with alucard's kills*. ME: laughing my ass off enjoying the chaos
5:58 In some variations of vampire myth a ghoul or zombie results from the drained corpses of victims and sometimes virgins can drink a vampire's blood to become one themselves. Hellsing and John Carpenter's vampires are in this vein of vampire flicks.
"Double immortality" more like double fatality 😂 I'm so glad you guys are watching this i used to watch it with my friends in school
FINALLY!!! I have been wanting you guys to react to this for so long! It’s one of my absolute favorites!!
Father Anderson in the actual show serves as a foil to Alucard. In the show proper Alucard is a perfectionist who tries to keep himself contained. While Anderson is the complete opposite and embodies the "sanctioned psychopath" trope, where because hes "doing the lords work" he allowed to be as sadistic and manic as he wants as long as its towards the undead, like Alucard.
The abridged version goes the complete opposite route and has anderson just be catholic version of Alucard.
Hellsing is one of my favorite animes out there.
Trust me you will enjoy every single moment of it.
(At 3:03) typical vampire folklore. Vampires make people into ghouls and/or familiars, then they decide if they turned them into full vampires
in this anime only virgin turn into vampire
20:58 that's Chris Sabat (voice of All Might, Piccolo, and Vegeta) voicing Professor Hellsing in Alucard's dream
The creators were doing these two at the same time as DBZA. This was their "we get to do the darker jokes that don't tonally fit DBZA" as a yearly Halloween special.
Honestly I think it benefitted from the slower release because they gave themselves longer to write, Scott continuously improved his editing and picked up voice talent.
38:50
And that’s how he got the nickname Vlad “The Impaler”. 😈
one of my favorite abridged series, i also would be down for a reaction of the actual show, it's pretty neat
The can somehow only got picked up when they were talking 🤣🤣🤣
Hellsing Ultimate is... only slightly less unhinged than Abridged is. A little bit less funny, a little bit MORE violent (seriously). It's a really good show though and I highly recommend watching it if you're enjoying the Abridged version this much.
Y'all will probably really enjoy the real series.
Hellsing Ultimate and Hellsing Abridged are masterpieces
If ya guys liked the look of this anime, you can go look for Drifters. There’s no abridge version but the anime is basically this art style with famous figures like Nobunaga doing war in a fantasy setting. It’s pretty insane.
So happy to se you guys react to this. Also I would love to see you react to the original Hellsing Ultimate. It is amazing and I think you all would like it.
The Jazzy Fight music in epsode 3, (starts at 38:26) is actually Alucard's Theme : A Left Foot caught in a Sensual Seduction, from the Original Hellsing Show. Its a fucking banger.
12:00 so the whole thing about this scene is I went and saw their panel. and the voice actor Lanni started saying his lines and without a beat all of us in the audience, without any instructions, automatically yelled out the crowd chant parts. Funniest and very disturbing hearing a whole crowd of people doing a not see chant and being a part of it.
I hope they do more of this series, I love hellsing!
Had so much fun watchin this.. lol Just dying at work watchin yall. lol
The hellsing ultimate anime took a long time to come out. So by the time the end of the seires was being made. Teamfourstar was making Hellsing ultimate abridged. The dub actors loved it and even quote some of the lines in the commentary on the blu rays.
The fact that I still remember all the lines in this show is kinda crazy lol. I'm so happy you guys have chosen to react to this show
You guys definitely gotta watch the original show. Alucard is an absolute MONSTER. He doesn't just wreck house. He wrecks the whole neighborhood, city, county, and state.
30:52 yes that is the same voice actor as Ainz from overlord, Cooler/Dr. Gero from DBZA
I’m so glad someone caught the aristocrats joke. It’s absolutely one of the best they’ve made but it’s so obscure
THERES NO WAYYYY, I WAS JUST THINKING A FEW DAYS AGO HOW I'D LOVE TO SEE YOU GUYS REACT TO THIS 😭
Have any of you seen this original? If at least one of you has seen the original than I think that would be good
i'm pretty sure ruff did a video on episode 1 a while ago, but that seems to be about all they've seen
(At 26:40) Now THIS… This made me LMFAO really hard… it hurt!
I am so happy you guys are starting this reaction journey cause this abridged series is so good and so raunchy and bloody. It’s a complete opposite then other abridged they’ve seen
Love this comedy horror full of badasses.
It deserves the hyping for more modern audiences.
To make this abridged series, they gave a folder with the whole Helsing ultimate series, gave it internet access, and fifteen kilos of pure cocaine.
You should definitely watch the original first, It's amazing and improves the Abridged version
The opening scene where Edward was saying loves Bella is making fun of the movie Twilight. Strap in, you are embarking on an amazing journey.
Hellsing has 2 animes, Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate. Hellsing is the anime done when the manga wasnt finished so it had an anime original ending. Hellsing Ultimate also started before the manga finished but they only released 2 episodes per year until the manga finished so the anime was much higher quality which is what the abridged copies. The manga wasn't too long but it was monthly so it took a long time to release.
This abridge voice acting is so good that sometimes ill see a clip of the real show and honestly can't tell the difference
a often overlooked joke in the start of ep 2 is the mission in Japan being 99% done- that one remaining shown starts an outbreak that takes over the whole of Japan in Highschool of the Dead XD
The French have never really been able to recover their reputation from WW2 in the eyes of a lot of European countries sadly. This was due to their own government selling them out when the Germans turned up at Paris with tanks and the PM stated Paris was too beautiful to be damaged by battle so issued and surrendering without a fight on the condition they did not destroy anything landmarks. To this day the very first comment about Frances military or combat capabilities even more so from the us Brits is often about making sure they packed their white flags instead of ammo even thou the French Resistance and Free French soldiers fought hard for their homeland.
Thank you guys for giving me so many channels to watch you guys make me laugh while my childhood is ruined yes I mean SpongeBob xD
I love how they recognize Chris Guerrero from Overlord, but they didn't recognize Christopher Sabat from DBZ, One Piece, MHA, etc.
Hope you guys watch the rest, it only gets better
I truly can't wait for y'all to watch all of this, hilarious af
