Well I will get around to it when I get around to it in regards to Yamada

I might get around to Food wars at some point, which do you think would be the best route to go down the manga or the anime in your opinion?

Thanks for the advice there, I will probably stick around with the anime adaption if it remains faithful and doesn't go around changing and altering it's plot "cough akame ga kill cough" and seeing food cooked in motion is a plus.

I'm finally getting around to starting Timur Vermes' Look Who's Back. After that I have Ascendance, the third book in John Birmingham's Dave Hooper trilogy to knock out. I'm also running concurrent re-reads of the Jump Universe novels and L.M. Montgomery's Anne series.

So I spent the last week reading the Hellsing manga and overall, I highly enjoyed it, and yet, I feel just a tad disappointed. I read all 10 volumes in a week, so clearly I liked the series or I would have found myself struggling to get through more volumes. I liked learning about Alucard's true identity and everything about him. At the same time though, I did not know the whole series essentially took place in the course of one night and was all essentially just one giant ass battle.

It just made a few of the character motivations confusing and I do not like what they did with Walter as it seemed out of character for how he acted in the first half of the series. Also, it was weird having Alucard not around for two volumes since he is the main character of the story. He is pretty much the Hellsing version of Goku. This series could have been done in 8 volumes as there was a lot of pages that were pointless. Not to mention there were chapters that were like 7 pages long, making them entirely pointless. Maxwell, on the other hand, confused me. He just suddenly has an army of crusaders and wants to kill everyone in Britain. That came out of no where.

Nevertheless, Hirano did manage to capture some great character moments in the middle of the battles (well, as long as your name is Yumi or Heinkle), which was nice. In fact, it was quite odd to learn about Alucard, Anderson, Seras, and the french dude over the course of the giant battle. Hell, he even managed to give a personality to the major.

Overall, I highly enjoyed the series, but it being one long battle really through me off. I was really expecting there to be a little more build up and mystery to the nazi army before things hit the fan, but that was clearly not the case. Nevertheless, I really want to watch Ultimate now.

Hellsing Ultimate is great. I love the manga too, but I do think the early 2000's TV series is not too bad. If you watch it as a stand alone show then it's pretty good.

The old anime lost me when they brought in Incognito. He was such a lame villain.

The one episode of filler I did like from the old anime was the snuff film episode.

I've been reading a bunch of Saint Onii-san lately. It's so hilarious. I liked the movie and ovas, but the manga is something else...helps that it's longer. Very fun.

I've finished re-reading the whole Skulduggery Pleasant series. Love that series so much! I've also started re-reading Death Note and Rurouni Kenshin.
