I am a big fan of Hellsing, particularly the manga. When I saw the first incarnation of it in anime form, I was pleased and the series was great until the Incognito storyline came about. I never understood why they went with a 13 episode series for Hellsing, anyway, furthermore they left out a lot of the awesome characters: Pip, Rip Van Winkle, the fuhrer, the odd cat-boy lackey of the fuhrer who I can't remember's name, they didn't give Walter near as much screen presence as he deserves, Celes' character became even more two-dimensional. They also left out the badass, tattooed, nazi, voodoo bitch. They also didn't bother to explain much about the Hellsing organization itself or its former relationship with the Vatican, and they even left out the two characters from the CrossFire sidestory. About the only thing they did include was a brief reference to Admiral Harkonen from Dune.
But, yes, Incognito ruined it for me, first seven episodes were great, after that, suck.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
