AnimeOnDVD, reporting from a French trade show, has announced that Geneon USA plans to produce a Hellsing OVA based on the manga instead of the (god awful) anime. According to their information, the format will be an unknown amount of 35 minute features.

This should be much better and maybe have a real fucking ending to it. The mnaga is a billion time bvetter than that pice of crap anime. The OVA's are going to be fucking cool.
This is heaps good, alot of people have wanted a second series to Hellsing, but now we get some OVA's, this is excellent.
I for one can't wait to watch this.
I'm a fan of both the manga and the anime, they portray Alucard as a true Vampire that I imagine would be.
It's about time. I definitely don't want to miss out on this one. Thanks for the info.

the end of the anime is quite cool, but the whole thing could have been done SO much better. ive not read the manga, but i cant wait for this OVA if its done right.
This is good news. Good to see more Hellsing comming..especially since the anime has been over for quite a while.
I'll have to catch up on the manga, only 2 vols into it...I liked the anime though so this is good news...
Just read this on animeondvd, thought you guys might be interested...
"Hellsing OVA Tidbits (12:29 PM EDT): Unfortunately I don't have a quotable source for this but it comes from fairly reliable information and will likely be confirmed at Anime Expo next week. A recent Rondo Robe event was held that showcased their Hellsing OVA plans. Apparently the series is being considered open-ended until the manga ends as the author has a specific ending in mind. Each episode, which will start coming out in Japan at the end of this year and is figuring a three year run, will be 35 minutes in length, have a 5.1 soundtrack and will be anamorphic widescreen. The manga author is heavily involved right down to the casting and the animation direction is supposed to be very close to how the manga itself looks. A promo reel that was shown covered material from several volumes of the manga, including up to volume eight which is as of yet uncompiled. Thanks to Duckroll for passing on the information."
I think this is very good news, especially with the mangaka being heavily involved
Yeah, if the mangaka is involved it will be his true work, and how he wants it shown is how we'll get it, the proper story, and no crap that isn't real.
at first i misread this topic thinking it was about a new hellsing OST
then i got even more confused when Y said its based on the manga
roflrofl WTF like music that was in the mangaka's head at the time? IDK!!!

I havent read them manga, but I saw the whole series on the action channel, and the way they ended it sucked.
No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."

Well according to Wikipedia it's the 4/04/07, don't know how good this really is and that information was gotten from http://www.cdjapan.jp/detailview.html?KEY=GNBA-1143
Yep, it's coming early April... Here's the trailer:

Looks pretty kickass, as always...
How exactly should that top link be used Bud? I clicked it and MPC opened up but then nothing happened
EDIT: Nevermind, right click/save as and then opening the file worked fine.
Looks good, indeed. But was Seras at all in the trailer? Maybe I just didn't spot her. At least Alucard was calling for her, so she's still getting screen time.
I enjoy the manga so i'll be looking forward to this specially since the mangaka is involved.
yo the hellsing ova already got licensed.

Shakugan no Shana
Ergo Proxy
Hellsing Ultimate OAV
Kannaduki no Miko
Of these, Shakugan no Shana, Kannaduki no Miko and Fate Stay Night are completely new licenses, while Hellsing Ultimate is a confirmation of a widely assumed lincense (based on the fact that Genenon USA was listed as a producer).

Just got back from going to Anime Expo, and at Geneon showed sneak peaks of the new Hellsing OVA there as well as discussions with the guests that came, the producer of Hellsing anime and OVA and the manga creator. Have to say, of what they showed of the OVA, it looks sweet. The animation was great, and the clips that they showed looked like it will be really good, and they said they were trying to follow the manga this time~ so can't wait for it's release
Now THAT is why Y hates me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] ..didnt realise there could be people to hate the anime, except for the ending =)

Working on my future Warhammer Online journal, criticism demanded. Yes it's supposed to be that size.
Surely everyone loves pan&scanning cel frames instead of animation and a plotless piece of shit script that falls apart midway through!
