Hellsing Vol 2 by Kohta Hiranko, 188 pages
This is the second book in a ten volume set that follows the Hellsing Agency. For those that didn't read the previous reviews or the series yet, the Hellsing Agency hunts downs and kills vampires and other supernatural creatures that are causing trouble. In this volume Hellsing is nearly destroyed in a sudden attack by the mysterious group called Milleinum.
Before continuing I want apologize for calling the books I was reading anime instead of manga. As I found out anime only refers to the animated TV shows and movies, while manga is the written books.
This volume, like the first is very well illustrated and is very bloody. There are scenes where arms and legs are getting ripped off people, violent head exploding gunshots and someone is set on fire. There is also a vampire that can use some sort of dark magic where he some how shape shifts into a shadow dog with lots of eyes, but asides from being impressive is also confusing.
Overall I am still enjoying the series and plan to finish it, though maybe not with a post per book.
