A secret war is brewing in the night -- a war in which humanity is only a pawn. The mysterious Hellsing Organization deploys within the shadows to protect ordinary mortals from the undead legions that would prey upon us. Now, as the ghouls and vampires increase in number, they threaten the human police forces and force the deployment of the Hellsing Organization`s ultimate weapon -- the rogue vampire, Arucard!. The first of two in a series, this authorized Ultimate Fan Guide details episodes 1-6: episode summaries, character profiles, setting exploration and theme analysis. Includes comprehensive character sheets for the Big Eyes, Small Mouth anime RPG as well. With hundreds of full-color images from the series, and many pages of production line art, this Ultimate Fan Guide is the definitive English-language resource book for HELLSING, episodes 1-6.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Decent Guide but Somewhat Lacking in Depth,

This review is from: Hellsing: Ultimate Fan Guide #1 (Paperback)
The first Hellsing: Ultimate Fan Guide covers the first six episodes of the bloody-good vampire anime Hellsing. The guide includes a fair amount of artwork--some promotional art and some scans lifted from the videos--and descriptions of each of the episodes, plus character bits and items on various aspects of the world in which the series is set.The episode summaries are okay if a bit thin; I suggest simply watching the anime itself. Overall, fans of the series probably already know everything in the book, but it's still a neat accompanyment if only as a book filled with visuals and concept drawings from the series. Roleplayers may find the bit at the end for incorporating the characters and world into the BESM game system useful as well.

This review is from: Hellsing: Ultimate Fan Guide #1 (Paperback)
The Hellsing Ultimate Fan Guide, #1, is not as ultimate as it could be. With summaries of the first six episodes, character bios, details on the setting, info on the locations, data on the organizations, and character sheets for using the Hellsing background within the anime RPG game _Big Eyes, Small Mouth_ plus all the extras in images and pictures you would think I would give it 5 out of 5. But the whole book is kind of weak. For example, the episode summaries only take three pages per episode, leaving out much of the cool dialogue and lots of the details. Some sections, like the page on Arucard's gloves, the pages on Hellsing's equipment and the page where they compare Vampire Myths and Vampires within the Hellsing Universe have little or no depth. But at 80 pages there isn't really a lot of room to hold much more.
As I have BESM and other books by Guardians Of Order, I plan to get Fan Guide #2. I hope it has more details.
