Format:Paperback
This book, the 7th in the Hellsing Manga series brings us ever deeper into the world of the Hellsing Organisation and their mission to rid the world of the forces of the Nazist Millenium Group. Alucard is still conspicuously absent, trapped on the Aircraft carrier in the middle of the Atlantic, Sir Integra is pinned down by both the evil forces of the Millenium Warwolves and the fanatical Iscariot Organisation, her loyal aide is a captive of the sadistic Major and his scientists, and the loyal fledgling vampire Seras Victoria is pinned down with Bernadotte's Wild Geese Mercenaries.
The Action focusses primarily on Seras, and brings to a conclusion one of the primary story arcs involving her unwillingness to accept her undeath.
I would strongly advise anyone who reads the series to continue to do so, and anyone who doesn't... Start to do so.

With enemy forces engaged cutting a bloody swathe through their headquarters, Hellsing's mercenary forces are suffering terrible casualties and only Seras Victoria has a chance of standing against the enemies' illusionist leader Zorin Blitz. Meanwhile the forces of the Vatican also make their appearance in the battle ranging through London.
This seventh volume of the brilliant `Hellsing' manga focuses mostly on Seras and gives us a glimpse into her background and some development of her character as well. This volume also sees a continuation of the bloody battles and the dark humour from the previous volumes as well. The volume finishes with all the major players coming together and the stage is set for a brilliantly violent battle in the coming volumes.

I Hope This Isn't the End
6 May 2006
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If this is this end then perhaps my rating is a bit too high, but still, Hellsing, from volume 1 though 7 was one of the most solid manga I've had the chance to read. It doesn't veer at all from its base storyline, it's bloody and violent and lets you know this early, and the characters are lovable, even if they are monstrous creatures who enjoy gore. And in volume seven, though the story definitely isn't finished, the action is non-stop and quick-paced. I blasted through this manga in less than an hour.
Of course, the story in this volume follows the continuing struggle against the undead Nazi invaders who have targeted England as the focal point for their "var". The battle focuses mainly on Seras and the Captain's efforts to keep the Hellsing Organization headquarters intact as an undead invading force led by a tattooed, sorcery-wielding vampire. Let's just say that things don't go so well for the Hellsing members and the Captain's mercenaries, but their is one big surprise that had me sitting up straight as I read. I won't spoil it, but it's a spurring moment indeed that appears as things seem to be at their grimmest. And Alucard, the hero of the story, doesn't have much of a role in this, so don't expect him...
Then comes the super ambiguous ending. It's a kind of face off that shows that things definitely aren't finished yet, but by all indications this is the last manga in the line, at least in the States, and a new volume isn't planned as of yet as far as I know. The soon-to-come anime, though, is planned, one that actually follows the storyline of the manga and doesn't go off on it's own course. Maybe the story will be finished there, or maybe it will be as ambiguous as it was in the manga. If it is, I'll be one disappointed Hellsing fan, that's for sure.
Either way, I still highly recommend this manga to anyone who loves darker manga such as Berserk. It's easily the goriest manga I've read, with a story that promotes action over plot, which will appeal to fans of quick-paced manga. Hellsing is a great manga, all around, and should it continue from this volume, I'm considering making it my personal favorite (which is now held by Berserk).

All the Gore you can Stomach
23 Feb 2006
Format:Paperback
Number seven in this fantastic series is a continuation on a point. We're at war now, and the vampires are tearing people apart left and right. Blood, guts and gore flow thickly across the pages. While all this is fantastic, for those looking for plot, this volume has less of a delivery. Its mostly blood this time around, but if youre collecting the series and want to keep up, you can't miss it! There is one major plotpoint stuck right in the middle bookended by carnage so pick it up and read it you Hellsing fan!

Freakin Awesome.
27 Nov 2005
Format:Paperback
If you've made it this far, you know that the graphics are superior, the story is awesome (you can't beat Nazi vampires and the Vatican trying to take out a Protestant vampire killing organization, Hellsing). The best part about this book is that it focuses just on the fight at the Hellsing Headquarters and goes in-depth just about Seras and the other people there. I can not wait for #8 because Alucard arrives in London at the end of this book.
