tonight's episode of not writing - reading the Hellsing manga and drinking a too-strong gin-and-strawberry-guava-jam beverage
I love how Sir Arthur Hellsing is like, "so, child, tell me: why are vampires so powerful"
And Integra rattles off a bunch of immunities and vampire lore like a nerd
And he just goes, "not quite, they just are that powerful"
much 2 think about

the thing about chuuni writing is that pastors love it. they don't necessarily know where they pull it from, but sometimes a phrase gets stuck in their head and they throw it into their sermons without really sourcing it
which is a lengthy way to say, there's a surprising amount of pastors post-y2k who started saying "blood is the currency of the soul" without realising that phrase's modern popularity can be traced back to one Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing

While skimming the JP volumes, I noticed a lot of subtleties in how characters address each other that aren't always carried over in translation.
So I did the only rational thing and made a frequency list of all the different ways Integra, Alucard, and Seras refer to each other throughout the manga.*
Hopefully someone else finds this informative or mildly entertaining as I did.
*Obviously “fool” and “idiot” aren’t normally counted as a means of address, but they were funny so I've included them. Also includes omake content.

Alucard → Integra
主 aruji・我が主人・我が主 waga aruji | my master (archaic/formal) = 17
インテグラ | Integra = 10
マイ マスター | my master (as furigana for aruji) = 4
伯爵 hakushaku | Count = 2

I know that Integra Hellsing didn't get in, but I'm leaving this here so everyone who didn't vote for her understands. Also her full title is Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing and I think it's so sexy when women use Sir.

Understanding Richard
Richard Hellsing wasn't too pleased when the 'joyful' announcement was made. There was to be another Hellsing soon. Another person in his way to succession; a screaming, drooling, shitting obstacle.
It wasn't until the week fourteen scans that Richard wondered if something more nefarious was happening.
It was a girl.
This complicated things in a bad way. Traditionally, a girl could not carry on the family name and rights. That little clump of cells could spell the end of the Hellsings right then and there.
Richard started to believe it was a curse. A vampire's curse. Alucard's curse. The demon may be, for all intents and purposes, dead in the basement, but he was more powerful than most could fathom. He could have even set the curse before he was banished.
Then it got a name.
Integra.
Integra Fairbrook.
Richard scowled at the name.
Lending more credence to Richard's theory, what's-her-face wanted to hyphenate its last name.
Integra Fairbrook Wingates-Hellsing.
He hated the name. It was so ostentatious and ridiculously...British. Like someone foreign was trying to come up with a British-sounding name. Well, what's-her-face was Indian. Something about the name Integra grated his skin. The soon-to-be parents wanted a name that meant something. Integral and Integrity. Important Truth. It sounded like a name a show-off would have.
Then it was born and there was another sign. It had a single vampire ear.
Arthur rolled his eyes, "It's a tiny point. It's called a Darwin's Ear, brother."
Sure this single Darwin's Ear point on its right side was smaller than older vampires' elongated and animal-like ears, but it was one more point for Richard's theory.
Richard kept his distance. Of course, it was dumped in his lap day in and day out and was made to babysit, but he kept it at arm's length. He never saw it as a human. It was a curse.
When its adult teeth started coming in, Richard knew for sure. It had fangs. Its canine teeth, the ones that become a vampire's fangs, were coming out the top of its jaw and looked very much like a vampire's fangs.
Arthur assured his brother that it was normal, genetic even. What's-her-face had the same problem; hers just came out from the back, and a few years in braces would do the trick.
Still, Richard knew the truth. Arthur was just under its spell. It was just masquerading as a knobby-kneed and awkward preteen girl. It even seemed to want Richard's attention and affection, pretending to be confused why they could never bond as uncle and niece.
Richard knew Alucard's plan. Richard had his own; he just needed to wait for the right time.

Hellsing Commentary 3 Notes
This commentary is done by Taliesin Jaffe, the voice director and script adapter of Hellsing, Victoria Harwood, the voice of Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, and JB Blanc, the voice of Enrico Maxwell and the Cheddar Priest. Direct quotes may vary in accuracy, as these are written down from audio without transcripts. I also didn't write down every joke or piece of trivia because I feel like people who watch the commentaries should get to have some nice surprises for stuff that isn't covered here.
-Yuri Lowenthal, Pip's VA, apparently speaks French. Victoria also calls him "a very sexy character, you wanna sort of follow him."
-JB Blanc playfully comments that "there isn't nearly enough blood in this episode."
-At the time of recording the OVA 3 commentary, JB and Victoria have known each other for 20 years, since Victoria was twelve and JB was eighteen respectively. Steven Brand (Anderson's VA) brought Victoria to Hellsing, and she brought JB during the original run. JB Blanc and Steven Brand even lived together at that point ("but not in the biblical sense, uh, it was a very very chaste relationship"). Victoria knew Steven Brand for even longer than JB, and they were "in one of the worst plays ever, ever written" together.
-Victoria Harwood was the very last actress they auditioned for Integra's role, and until she came in they were going to settle on an actress who was competent but sounded too young. "She sounded thirteen. Just, no gravitas, no gravitas."
-When Victoria watches herself as Integra she thinks that she sounds like she's on Mogadon.
-Victoria also comments that she likes how everyone has "very different colored eyes" in this show. JB agrees and says "Mine are purple, for god's sake."
-When talking about the differences in the Cheddar priest performances, Taliesin restates that Ultimate is going for a different level of camp from the original TV series. JB agrees and says "Its almost a level of camp beyond any I have ever experienced, and believe me, I've experienced some camp."
Victoria: "Yeah but, well, that was when you were living with Steven Brand."
JB: "Pretty much, yeah yeah, there was a lot of camp going on then."
-Continuing on the differences between Ultimate and the original series, JB says of Ultimate that "You know its sexier, its more arch, its more Gothy, its more...its like everything the first one had, amped-up, and it makes it more fun."
-Taliesin states that a friend that yells at him about acting theory says "'Its very much like doing opera.' Its just, its all exercise. You're not even -you're almost not struggling for a character at any point, you're just, its just this exercise in theory." JB agrees and says "You're driven by the image much more, and therefore you're always trying to pitch up to what the images are telling you and to try and honor what the Japanese has before you."
-Victoria says that "the time thing" is what she found difficult, with the Japanese taking things a lot slower than what she's used to. "That's what I mean about the Mogadon, sometimes I'm like 'Oh my god, how much- how long can I- (JB chips in at this point with "Aaaallooow me to introoooduuuce myseeelf") how much slower and sort of -controlled, and very measured."
-When discussing Seras, Victoria comments "That's the whole manga thing, isn't it? It's all about-" JB overlaps her at this point, saying "Chests and short skirts." Victoria replies "Well- well I was gonna say 'tits and panties.'" JB says "'Chest and short skirts' is the polite version of 'tits and panties'." as they both chuckle.
-Taliesin says that at a meeting with Hirano discussing future things in Ultimate, Hirano said that he was just going to keep making Seras's chest bigger and bigger as per his own frustration levels. JB chips in and says "I think its integral to the story. As the pressure grows, so does the pressure on her shirt."
-JB says that Gildart Jackson (the Major's VA) is "absolutely superb in this, it's wonderful. It's great. It's pretty great work, the mad German."
-JB also says that Crispin has underplayed his role beautifully throughout. Taliesin admits that he doesn't write Alucard very well, since he knows Crispin will come in and work on everything with him anyway, so he sort of cheats and says "Eh, good enough." for a lot of his dialogue script.
-Victoria has two boys as of the time of recording OVA 3, and "Actually, Jonathan (the producer) rang me...about ten minutes after I had given birth, and said- and launched straight in 'We need you back!' -it was for something else- 'We need you back!' and I was like, I said 'I'm in hospital.' He said 'What are you doing in hospital?' 'Nothing,' I said, 'I've just had a baby.' and he said 'Well- well- oh god, yeah, s-stop talking to me!' You know, get off the phone. But I was back in a week later." Taliesin agrees and says he has also crawled his way out of a hospital bed several times to "crawl in here and get something done."
-JB says "If you ever want to know anything about anything, get Taliesin drunk at a convention, and it will all spill forth, like the blood of Alucard's victims."
-Taliesin says that the VA who played the Pope was a "fabulously crude man." His track was also recorded first, and JB compliments him because "I could actually, like, keep a check on my Italian accent because his was so good."
-Taliesin says that "as long as there's a controlling, awful director" as the voice of Harkonen, it would be fine.
-Taliesin initially got together "all the Brazilian accents" for the Rio teams, but then he took a minute and saw that they were "the whitest-looking Rio de Janeirian people I've ever seen" and decided to use an American SWAT team instead.
-Taliesin actually counted "everybody who dies" in the Rio scenes, and gave them a name. "So that you can actually pay attention and not have nine people die in the same scene that are all voiced by the same actor. And keep some sort of continuity as to who's talking, and where they are, so that if you have a Team Leader who's up on the roof, is not the same Team Leader that's down on the ground, who's not the same Team Leader who's in the elevator...the final bodycount was somewhere, oh, was it seventy-five people? Uh, there's seventy-five individual pieces of, of slaughter in this next, in the rest of this episode."
-Victoria laughs and comments "he likes it, ooh" when Alucard starts cackling after Integra's outburst.
-JB and Victoria both comment that they find the little exhales of anime much more difficult than the laughs. Taliesin directly tells the audience that "None of you know what I go through, there is- I have yet- I have yet to meet an English actor who can do a sound-effect, those little breaths and Japanese clicks." Victoria makes an inquisitive noise and he continues "None of them- they're all -all of you are uncomfortable doing it." Victoria argues that "-its a purely Japanese thing! I mean, what we would do is go 'Huh?' 'What?' like I mean, you know, get an American to do it."
Taliesin: "All of my American boys, they come in, they hit them first try."
JB: "Well if we're not good enough for you Tally-"
Victoria: "Yeah, we'll just fuck off."
JB: "Yeah, we'll just resign from this series, you can go screw yourself. I've never been so insulted in all my life!"
Victoria: "No! That's it, let's go."
They then both start what Victoria calls "porn grunting" as all three descend into giggles. JB says "It is porn grunting, that's why we're uncomfortable with it! We're English, sensually repressed individuals." Between breathless laughter, Taliesin calls JB "one of the most deeply unrepressed human beings I've ever met in my life."
-Taliesin and JB had drinks at a weekend once in Texas and JB got drunk enough to do his "gay cop" impression.
-The elevator scene was saved for last, and Taliesin made sure that "if you listen very carefully, there are still screams of pain and murder going all the way down that elevator shaft."
-Victoria misses the music from the original series, calling it "groovy," and Taliesin says that they've gone "kinda classical" for Ultimate. She says that she loved the original music and Taliesin agrees, saying that that was one of the most radical changes from the new series to the old.
-JB says that he really likes Alhambra's VA, even if he doesn't know who it was, and that he's great. Taliesin agrees and says "It's a weird accent, it's kind of a weird accent, its one that can go a little too camp really easily, it's the clean Spaniard? I wanted it to be kinda thin...everybody who auditioned didn't quite get the level of camp."
-JB also comments of anime that "Well, this is the danger, you see: this stuff is melodramatic, and it allows you to go certain places, but I think a lot of American actors, I mean, particularly people who do stuff on screen...they're very worried about being very internal, and this stuff just doesn't sustain that. You have to come out of your shell, you have to push it, you have to be more arch, otherwise you just don't do the format justice."
-Taliesin comments sympathetically on Alhambra's VA who had to "stretch this scream out" when Alucard breaks his leg.
-Getting the lip-flap to work in German was "fun" for Taliesin.
-The "Welcome to this crazy time" song that the Major tosses out at the end is an opening theme for Fist of the North Star. There is also a reference to Gundam slightly earlier, and according to Taliesin, Hellsing is full of similar little nods.

ME??? MAKING FUSION VERSES ONLY I CARE ABOUT??? It’s more likely than you think. It suddenly occurred to me that I could combine my two favorite descendants of Abraham Van Helsing. This being Guillermo de la Cruz and Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing from the anime Hellsing.
Sir Guillermo de la Cruz Hellsing. Head of the Hellsing family and inheriter of the family’s pet Vampire, who I would change from Dracula to Nandor in this AU. It also has occurred to me that Nandor is like 200 years older than Dracula would have been. (what if nandor made Dracula???)

If Integra Hellsing is a boy, what is his male name?
That's tough, because "Integral" isn't really a name. I mean, I guess anything can be a name but it's a mathematical term and an adjective. I'm not really sure why Arthur (or by extension, Hirano) chose that for a name, or why the cast call her Integra as if it's a syllable shorter. 🙃
Wingates is a last name from Northumberland, which may be inspired by someone Arthur knew this one isnt gendered either as its a surname, so im keeping that one too. Fairbrook is also a surname. I'm not sure if Hirano didn't care, or if he just didn't understand English surnames.
I don't see any reason why her name would change from feminine to masculine since her first name is out of left field and none of her middle names are gendered.
