Hellsing Ultimate - Characters & Cast
Character Analysis
Alucard
Jouji Nakata
Motivation
Initially motivated by his oath to the Hellsing line, his deeper desire is to find a human worthy of ending his immortal life, as he believes he lacks the strength to die as a man.
Character Arc
Alucard begins as an arrogant, nearly omnipotent servant of Hellsing who views humanity with a mix of pity and admiration. Over the series, his past as Vlad III (The Impaler) is revealed, showing his fall from grace. His arc concludes with a quiet acceptance of his master's mortality and his return as an omnipresent entity after 30 years of self-purgatory.
Seras Victoria
Fumiko Orikasa
Motivation
Driven by a desire to protect the innocent and a deep-seated need for belonging, eventually finding a 'home' within the Hellsing Organization.
Character Arc
Seras transforms from a frightened, hesitant rookie who refuses to drink blood into a True Vampire. Her turning point occurs when she absorbs the soul of Pip Bernadotte, allowing her to reach her full potential while maintaining the compassion that Alucard lacks.
Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing
Yoshiko Sakakibara
Motivation
Bound by Duty to the British Empire and the Hellsing legacy, she seeks to eradicate all supernatural threats through 'Search and Destroy' tactics.
Character Arc
Integra starts as a young head of the family who must prove her authority. Throughout the series, she remains a bastion of human willpower, never wavering even as London falls. By the end, she is an aged but undefeated leader who has earned the absolute respect of a god-like vampire.
Father Alexander Anderson
Norio Wakamoto
Motivation
Fanatical devotion to the Catholic Church and the eradication of 'monsters' and 'Protestant heretics'.
Character Arc
Anderson serves as Alucard's foil. Initially a 'Regenerator' who hunts monsters in God's name, he eventually chooses to discard his humanity by using Helena's Nail to kill Alucard, realizing too late that by becoming a monster, he lost the ability to truly defeat one.
The Major
Nobuo Tobita
Motivation
A pure, unadulterated love for war and a personal vendetta to prove that human will can surpass immortal monsters.
Character Arc
The Major remains largely static in his philosophy but is revealed to be a cyborg who has replaced his failing body with machinery. His 'growth' is the fulfillment of a 50-year plan to bring ruin to Alucard and the world, eventually dying with a smile after proving his will was stronger than Alucard's power.
