Dracula vs Alucard eh?

 

HELLSING's ALUCARD/DRACULA

I watched Hellsing OVA(not the tv series, it suck) and read the manga so technically ALUCARD is Count Dracula in that series. Before he was Alucard/Dracula, he was a human named Vlad Dracula II. Dracula starts his career by fighting the Ottomans, believing that God does not reward prayer, but instead wants mortals to show their faith visibly. However, when his army is defeated and he is about to be executed, Vlad gives up on God, thinking that God deserted him and so turns his back to God in turn. It is not explicitly shown or stated how he became a vampire, but in one scene he drinks blood from the floor in front of an executioner. The series mentions the events of Bram Stoker's Dracula, but deviates at the point of Dracula's defeat. In Hellsing, he was staked in the heart but not destroyed. It is unknown if he was forced into servitude or was willing, but he became a servant of the Van Helsing family. He, along with a young Walter C. Dornez, were sent to Warsaw, Poland to stop Millennium's vampire production program. Integra's father eventually imprisoned Alucard in a dungeon in the Hellsing manor, as he believed the vampire was too powerful to be used frequently.After 20 years of imprisonment, Integra's blood awakened and resuscitated Alucard. He rescued Integra from her traitorous uncle and became her servant. In the series, Alucard is the name he used after being a servant of the Hellsing family while his new master had been calling her count in some scene/chapter and he can transform into his old DRACULAself-ish...

 

CASTLEVANIA's ALUCARD/DRACULA

 

In the series, Alucard is the son of Dracula, the antagonist of the Castlevania series. Due to his human mother, Lisa, Alucard is a dhampir, a half-human, half-vampire. His mother's death and admonition not to hate humanity caused him to take up arms against his father. In Dracula's Curse and Castlevania Legends, he fights against his father alongside the vampire hunters of the Belmont clan, and he is featured as the protagonist of Symphony of the Night. In the 1989 Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse for the NES, Alucard is initially a boss encountered over the course of the game by the primary protagonist, Trevor Belmont. If the player defeats Alucard, he can be utilized as a playable character in the game. This was a significant departure from the first two Castlevania games for the NES, which only featured Simon Belmont as the primary playable character, and Alucard's abilities, a fireball attack and the ability to transform into a bat, were unique elements introduced into the series.Alucard's following appearance in the series is in the 1997 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn, where he is featured as the game's protagonist and primary playable character. Due to the brainwashing of the current member of the Belmont clan, Richter Belmont, Alucard heads to his father's castle to find Richter and ensure that Dracula does not return into the world.

 

So that's my knowledge of ALUCARD/DRACULA in Hellsing OVA/manga and the Castlevania series. One is actually Dracula with an inverted name and the other is Dracula's son.

 

Anyway, I have 2 weeks off from my public exam and my gf invites me to watch the UNDERWORLD trilogy, are they any good or are they just like twilight? And if you like vampire,may I suggest VAMPIRE HUNTER D. Their awesome!!
