Mavos had this to say about Cuba:
What's it about?
A organization that hunts evil Vampires with the help of Alucard, a vampire himself. A female cop stumbles over one of these fights I think and is shot badly. Alucard turns her into a vampire to save her life.

Yuri had this to say about Captain Planet:
Now uploaded on Khy's FTP at Uploads/Hellsing. Enjoy
Woo! Thank you. Been wanting to watch this series.
The ending was a bit forced, but it didn't ruin the series. It just means they need to make another season.

From the book of MorbId, chapter 3, verse 16:
Out of curiosity, what was it you found confusing?
The end... I dont know who the hell the big purple guy was working for.. Plus I was somewhat looking forward to another fight with Anderson vs. Alucard like they show in every opening. That would have been nice.
Incognito was the 'pet vampire' of the mysterious organization producing the Freak chips. The first time Seras goes to visit Helena, she mentions that the chip-producers must have a vampire in their service to serve as a template for their chip design. That's definitely Incognito, and it helps explain why the Freaks are so mentally unbalanced.
Incognito's role in the organization is never really explained, nor is the actual organization's exact nature. Still, from his conversations with Alucard, it seems like his position is a similiar one. A traitor in the Knights of the Round Table group was another member of the Freak chip-producing organization, and orchestrated the trap for Hellsing at the Tower of London.
If the creators had the luxury of more episodes, these things probably would've been more fully explained in the series itself.
I agree, though. Until the credits rolled on episode 13, I kept expecting Anderson to show up for a final duel. [ 06-30-2003: Message edited by: MorbId ]

Can one of y'all load the eps onto Khy's FTP please?
Check the uploads folder. I already put it up there.
Why did they have to bring in Incognito without the intent of wrapping up the chipped vampire storyline? He really really sucked as a villain since he was missing any kind of background and the whole devil summoning business at the end was very forced. They should have set up the Valentine brothers as perpetrators of the chipped freaks, left all the secret organization business out, used the extra episode gained to flesh out Alucard(Arucad? Arurcad? they had like three different spellings in the subtitiles) and Integra(l)'s backstory a bit more and had the final fight be between Anderso(e)n and Alucard with the Vatican drawing the strings to the whole tower of London setup, which could have been kept pretty much the same, instead of the mystery organization.

Paul The Fun Drunk had this to say about Optimus Prime:
Why is there only 13 episodes? I think they should make more
They originally planned on making 26, but part way through they ran out of money, or got lazy or something. I forget the details but they just kinda went, "HAY lets noly maek 13 episoeds lowl".

Yuri- had this to say about Cuba:
I believe the name is Alucard. It would make sense because in many games (Castlevania anyone?) Alucard is the son of Dracula. It is also Dracula spelled backwards.
Alucard is Dracula.
In the episode when he first speaks to Inognito: "You're nobody? Well, my name has an interesting origin as well.."
The main thing, though, is how he finishes off Incognito. The historical Dracula was infamous for gruesomely impaling his enemies, just as Alucard does to Incognito. In addition, that scene has a flash of lightning that birefly shows Alucard's face with a mustache. With the mustache, he looks identical to actuale paintings of Vlad Tepes/Dracula.

Did she die? Did she escape?

I doubt she died, she looked regenerated in the scenes with Integra and Alucard in ep13. I wondered about Walter more.

I'm sure Walter was fine, they took him off in an ambulence. Didya see the stretcher? And, ok, just to clear this up, Alucard WAS there to break Integra out right?

Seemed more like him beeing there for the joy of battle. He did leave her in the mansion to fight incognito, she only got there herself later. (While Alucard was semi-dead) [ 08-21-2003: Message edited by: Shazorx / Modrakien ]
I saw it, was just saying that he seemed more damaged than Celes.

No, no no, I mean, break her out of Jail

Alucard's there to give her a way out. If she accepts his offer of blood, she'll most likely become a vampire herself. Obviously, that would make escaping much easier. The ending seems to be deliberately vague, though, and it's up to the viewer to decide if Integra's going to accept or not.
What confused me most about the series is a short scene from the Duel episode.
While Alucard has Anderson down and is taunting him, Anderson has a very brief flashback. It shows a younger version of the regenerating paladin in a city setting and uniform, looking around fearfully before pointing a gun at his own face.
Has anyone read the manga? Does it explain the significance of that scene? It seems like the original plan was to eventually explore Anderson's backstory as well, but they never got to it. [ 08-24-2003: Message edited by: Captain MorbId ]

I want to read the manga really bad. But they didn't have any at the Con.
