Book Reviews of Hellsing Volume 1 (Hellsing (Graphic Novels)) (v. 1)
Book Review: Gawd Bless Yoo Mary Pawpins
Summary: 4 Stars
Hellsing's probably one of the only mangas to be set in England. It centres around the Hellsing organisation, a sort of MI5 for fighting vampires, and Alucard, Hellsing's almost impossibly tall and thin vampire operative.It's a great deal gorier than most mangas I've read, and anyone squeamish shouldn't read this particular title. If however you like seeing a vampire inserting his arms into other people up to the elbow, then this is indeed the one for you, you strange little person you.
One minor flaw is the dialogue. It's screamingly apparent that it's been translated into English by an American who has either a) had the way English people speak explained to him but hasn't understood the concept, or b) watched Mary Poppins at some point in his life. This means some dramatic moments are ruined by laughable dialogue.
As long as you discount the psuedo-English dialogue and wall-to-wall gore, Hellsing is entertaining and amusing manga.
