Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

Hellsing fans rejoice! Why? Didn’t you read the title?! The Hellsing Ultimate OVA is scheduled for release to the western world on December 5th (that’s next week)! Standard and limited edition options apply as expected.

There’s also going to be a lot of goodies available. They include (aka these are the reasons you SHOULD/WILL buy the Hellsing Ultimate OVA DVDs):

• All standard edition content plus a second disk with 57 minutes of extras
• Special Collectors Steel book package
• Alucard Relief Figurine onpack imported from Japan (US Exclusive Coloring)
• 16×9 anamorphic widescreen encoded from HD Master
• 5.1 DTS English
• 5.1 Dolby Digital (English and Japanese with English subtitles)
• Audio commentary featuring Taliesin Jaffe (English Voice Director) and Crispin
Freeman (voice of Alucard)
• Trailer
• Broken English version
• Young King Ours version
• Japanese EP1 Trailer
• US Trailer
• Non-Credit Ending
• 4 Japanese TV commercials

This is one of my most wanted presents for Christmas so I’m surely going to try and pester someone among my family and/or friends to buy this all for me. I’m particularly interested in the Broken English option that is going to be available since that’s a common language used in my country (The Bahamas). Of course I want the Alucard figurine but I’m worried I’ll miss out on the limited supply (I assume there’s one which is the usual for such rare merchandise). On another note, I’m glad to see that we’re not receiving any crappy extras that usually plagues DVD releases. Overall, I’m ecstatic and probably won’t be able to wait until Christmas to get/open the DVD. However, if I can wait until then I’m sure I won’t be disappointed and neither shall any Hellsing fans. ^^

Head on over to the official website.

Also, here’s some awesome promo art of Alucard.
