The Hellsing Organization (more formally known as the Royal Order of Protestant Knights) is a fictional organization from the manga series Hellsing by Kouta Hirano. ...
The name "Hellsing" comes from the character of a similar name in Bram Stoker's Dracula, Abraham van Helsing. The leader of Hellsing organization, Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing (Integra), is the great-granddaughter of the grizzled professor. In the Hellsing universe the organization is an integral part of the true power-structure of Great Britain, which is in fact still ruled by a hidden aristocracy and the monarchy. The organization is tasked with defending the country's shores from any and all supernatural threats. Controversy is often raised, especially in the manga, over the highly unconventional methods Hellsing chooses to do this, namely the use of anti-Christian powers and creatures. In the TV series the agency resembles a counter-terrorist paramilitary strike force in uniform, methods and gear, however in the manga and OVA the soldiers are rarely seen, as the manga only focuses on the main characters.
