“The Purpose? What a silly question my beautiful Fräulein. Purpose…how quaint. To put it in the simplest possible terms, Fräulein...Our purpose, is a total absence of purpose.

Dead on, you didn't get to be fat and spoiled in that army unless you were close to the top... Proof of that is in major historical books like "the forgotten soldier" by guy sajer. A half French half German drafted into hitlers boys brigade
He talks about survival through battle after battle. The starvation and lice races experienced by hitlers troops, (at least low rank draft soldiers) but even he pointed out how decadent the higher officers got to live.. as stated you don't get to be fat and spoiled in hitlers army unless you have a really higher rank
But the thing is who would win millennium or Hydra no let's just listen I'm as only just a few group of people but Hydra is literally the entire world@@mattdamon9326
Yeah, in the dawn (Hellsing prequel) you can see him as a high ranking member of the nazi army where he’s overseeing the early artificial vampire program
-You know what’s the funniest thing here is doc? -No, sir Major. What is it? -It took them the longest time to realize that Alucard spelled backwards is Dracula! -It took us the same time, sir Major. -To be honest, we were preparing for World War 3
The Major is the staple of a good mad man, his madness is driven by a goal that can be understood by a sane person. However, 15:35 is just a complete misunderstanding of the character and shows a lack of understanding of the word hypocrisy. You can't call a person a hypocrite by your standards, as a person is a hypocrite if they betray their own standards.
vampire chips made by humans, cyborg with implants made by human tech. I still regard the major as human regardless what other people say. and alucard is a servant, of a human ad has been bested by one.
I find it every interesting that The Major had the potential of becoming a true pure vampire and not an artificial vampire. Yet he rejects the opportunity to stay pure
So, one of the things that sets Millenium Vampires apart from Real Vampires is that Millenium Vampires cannot create new vampires. Does that mean the Cheddar Priest was the only Real Vampire opposed to Hellsing, or were the couple that Alucard and Seras face also Real Vampires? Alucard implies that they aren't, because they aren't powerful enough. Interestingly enough, Alucard says that giving up on life is what gets people killed, and that Seras's refusal to give up on life is what gave her the right to become a vampire. Integra says something similar about the Millenium Vampires, with the opposite message - they couldn't bear the weight of their own humanity, so chose to become vampires instead (sort of in-line with the Major's thinking that vampires can only steal humanity, and that he is above them because he has his own humanity). And of course Anderson correctly points out that most vampires are Death Seekers in his famous "demons don't cry" speech. But of course, Integra points out that the Major, for all his talk of being driven by his humanity, has none. Contrast that to Seras, a vampire who even after reaching her full power, doesn't seem to give up on her humanity, refusing to drink the blood of Zorin in an effort to make sure that her soul doesn't become diseased.
Ive cooked on this for years, He denounced God at the time of his execution and drank blood to become the first vampire. He wasn't turned by an another vampire, but directly cursed by God. He is the Vampire and Seres is the only he ever sired. the nazi vampires were artificial, created with an implanted chip. This chip was created from their research on Mina Harpers corpse, she being the only one who drank Dracula's blood.
That's also something I've recently thought about. For a show about hunting vampires, we see very little real vampires. Just a single one in the first episode.
Nah. The Major temporarily made Alucard stronger. Furthermore, why didn't he just make Walter have permanent vampirism? All they had to do to kill Alucard was stab him in the heart once level 0 is let loose. Hell, Walter DID try that. But he was hypnotised by Alucard. @@lunareinhold3976
well to be honest they succeeded in erasing him in a way. Since he is both Alive & Dead at the same time. If he even consumes another person, he will disappear again due to consuming schrodinger. But as long as he doesn't he can indeed continue to exist. Its a victory to the Major.
It wouldn't matter. The Major died thinking he had killed Alucard once and for all. He got everything he wanted as long as he was alive. And even if he somehow survived? He'd just try again and again.. because that's the kind of person Major is. War, blood, death and battle is everything he strive for.
@@Fatsaver Don't get me wrong, the cost of London's destruction was high. But all for what? Planning 5.5 decades to defeat one vampire for 3 decades only to fail for eternity after those three decades... Costly at first. But that can eventually no longer matter in the eternal run. Big as $1M can be, $1B is just a far bigger price to pay. Then it becomes a trillion... Then a quadrillion.... It goes up infinitely because Alucard lives eternally 😭😭📝📝

Marvelous Anime: The worst monsters aren't ghouls, vampires, or werewolves, it's humanity. Trust me, it's ALWAYS humanity. I once told myself this; "A person's greatest enemy is one's self. A group's greatest foe is each other. The greatest criminal of humanity is humanity itself." Simply put, take any small or big number and divide it by ITSLEF. You get 1. And what better example of 1 than "one's self"? So yeah... Glad to run into this video since I am a big fan of Hellsing anyway.
In Short: the Major wanted to prove that just one man a human being can be a worse monster than anything from the grave……kinda falls on its head when he’s technically no longer human himself the damn Cyborg bastard 😂
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. Alucard and the major are two sides of the same coin. For millions of years humans have had two jobs, farmers and hunters. Now that in a modern world hunters are becoming useless they wish to furfill there destiny in one last glorious hunt. The major just gives there superego the push to let the beast free. Alucard is the other, the inferior person who has all the power but that nobody wants. The hunter wants to be the true ebermench.
He was terminally wounded by Soviet soldiers in Berlin. He refused to become a true vampire when the blood was surrounding him and Doc was able to evacuate him.

I disagree with a point that major was just an ordinary death camp stuffer. He definitely was a bigger fish
Yeah having an iron cross would be a good indicator for that.

Easily one of the best villains ever in anime/manga
Hell yeah

Millenium vampires can only create ghouls, as we can se during the London invasion.

I think the vampire couple was just exceptionally weak vampires. But I don't know.
@@tordlindgren2123 hi dude how are you
That's also something I've recently thought about. For a show about hunting vampires, we see very little real vampires. Just a single one in the first episode.
I keep thinking of the major's speech from the abridged version 😂 great video though cuz it answered a few questions I had about the anime
Do i like war no i love war . The major hail millennium
Imagine preparing for over half a century to defeat Alucard entirely.
Now imagine that only works for 3 decades...
Not a victory worth celebrating.
It's worth it. Alucard is the strongest being in the world of Hellsing/Hellsing Ultimate. To beat him temporaly is admirable.
Nah. The Major temporarily made Alucard stronger.
Furthermore, why didn't he just make Walter have permanent vampirism? All they had to do to kill Alucard was stab him in the heart once level 0 is let loose.
Hell, Walter DID try that. But he was hypnotised by Alucard.

Why do female armor in anime not cover anything? These are one of life’s great mysteries
This is my favorite anime next to Berserk!!!
Mine too! It’s what set me on the path of anime!
Go to love Hellsing

His cybernetics only prolonged his life he is human in everything else
He almost had Alucard, but almost doesn't count.
I didn't expect to hear "an ordinary nazi concentration camp staffer" as a character's backstory

Alucard and the major are two sides of the same coin. For millions of years humans have had two jobs, farmers and hunters. Now that in a modern world hunters are becoming useless they wish to furfill there destiny in one last glorious hunt. The major just gives there superego the push to let the beast free. Alucard is the other, the inferior person who has all the power but that nobody wants. The hunter wants to be the true ebermench.
Okay, BUT WHY WAS HE A CYBORG, THOUGH?
He was terminally wounded by Soviet soldiers in Berlin. He refused to become a true vampire when the blood was surrounding him and Doc was able to evacuate him.
One of the best villains ever
Major winnig would be a better for the world, nobody with sane mind would want some immortal maniac walking around
No it would not Alucard being in the world was fine
@@thepsychofunboyartist Especially for those policemans he killed
Without a master sure
I want seras origins
