Yes, but the whole thing with him waiting until she turned, even though he says that she told him to kill her before she turned if she ever got bitten, just to see if shed just slip away, like he wanted Duck to... I felt that was a very emotional scene. They were both excellent scenes, very well done. For me anyway, its always sadder when its slower, rather then when its faster, but that's just me, they are both great scenes. That's...what she said?

Shit! I need to rephrase that, you know what I meant, a slower death is sadder, and a faster death is less sad, at least that is what I believe.

Hellsing Ultimate. It's from Volume 7, one of the scenes featuring my favorite character, Pip Bernadotte. Next to Spike Spegiel form Cowboy Bebop, Bernadotte is one of my favorite anime characters ever. The specific scene that it is from: Well that is quite badass, also you like Spike also? Hell yeah, you can't go wrong with Steve Blum. Well, this is more of a "badass" scene as compared to the other: And yeah, Spike is awesome. Both him and Pip have something in common, both of them are human, as in, they aren't invincible, you see them get hurt quite a lot. In Cowboy Bebop, there are various experimentation, or people who otherwise have an advantage over Spike. He doesn't have powers or anything special to fight with. The same is true with Pip, he is a mercenary hired to fight monsters, facing a suicide mission everyday. I think it's interesting, especially in anime, to see heroes who are vulnerable. Honestly, I think I'd have preferred it if Pip was the main character of Hellsing, rather than Seras and Alucard, who are both basically immortal. In Alucard's parts, it's hard for tension to be built because the viewer knows that he'll always walk away without a scratch. In fact, one of the things throughout the series is that he always allows his enemies a chance to kill him before he takes his first move. To my mind, it's much more interesting to see Pip try and outsmart adversaries that he had no chance of killing in a head on fight. And to try to keep to the topic of the thread, what did you think about the scene with Kenny killing Sarita in the tent, and saying how he waited until she turned, to see if maybe she wouldn't. Reminded me of how he was saying Duck might be different from the rest in S1E3.

I like the herd death. It's just a better scene.

Reminded me of how he was saying Duck might be different from the rest in S1E3. Agreed on all counts, and that scene felt very much like Duck's death, but perhaps more like Katjaa, anyway its rather depressing, and, well, it makes it rather clear that maybe he just wants to give up, do what he said never to do. Though I still like the other scene a lot.

Head axed by Clementine. That Kenny fury is so painfully awesome.

Me and Kenny kind of left her in the herd to die and become a walker. Oops. I think head axing her is better. Quick death instead of having to wait it out with Kenny. Although, she did get the say goodbye at Parker's Run.

That's kinda why I disliked Sword Art Online. The main character (he was so bland I forgot his name) literally let four or five dudes wail on him, just to show that he pretty much couldn't ever die. Then, in the final fight, he finally meets his match, and he actually dies if I remember correctly, but then he basically says, "LOL JK I AM GOD."

Then, in the final fight, he finally meets his match, and he actually dies if I remember correctly, but then he basically says, "LOL JK I AM GOD." Yeah, that's basically every battle with Alucard in Hellsing Ultimate. He just stands there and let's himself get shot to pieces, then regenerates, and is like, "Nice try, my turn now," and tears them apart. There's only two fights near the end where he is close to dying, and only one is interesting because it's against another human opponent. The second fight is against some other immortal guy, and it's still not that interesting, because both of them are immortal, and it just keeps escalating until, like always, Alucard wins. And the voice acting... Overall, I'd say it's probably one of the best examples of voice acting for an English dub of an anime ever, next to Bebop. I never really thought of the voice acting for Pip to be bad, but it's not special, unlike with Crispin Freeman as Alucard, and Steven Brand as Anderson, who are both amazing. Edit: Thinking about it, the voice acting for Pip isn't bad at all I'd say. It's pretty good.

Definitely doesn't seem fun to watch. I gotta say, though, the pretty much invulnerable characters in Samurai Champloo are actually really good at creating tension, and an air of vulnerability. Whether it's the three main characters splitting up, fighting without their swords, or even fighting someone who matches their skills, they always kept it interesting. I think my favorite fight is probably when Mugen (one of the two badasses of the show) hires a hooker who ends up being an undercover cop. There are just so many different scenarios that the characters fight in that it's always interesting. Also, the dub seems pretty terrible from what I've seen. I think Samurai Champloo has a pretty good dub, though, aside from one or two odd characters.

I cut off her arm, but wound up leaving her to turn.

A lot of anime dubs use the same actors over and over again, reason being, they're cheap. For whatever reason, this was not the case with Hellsing, and they actually sought out some better voice actors for the show. And despite the fact that Alucard is basically invincible, it is still fun to watch.

All of the animes I've watched had pretty good dubs. Even if they were dumb shows.
