Alucard → Dracula, i.e. vampire, i.e. this card must have undead keyword as every other vampire card, mustn't it?

See, he is based on a certain specific Alucard from a Japanese series, and he has... unnecessarily complicated circumstances. Bottom of the line, he is not a typical undead.

I am otaku and i had viewed Hellsing series :-)


In the first place, card picture doesn't match his appearance in Hellsing.

In the second, in Hellsing Alucard is vampire and yes, he drinks blood :-)

In the third, name «Alucard» is using in many other creations and in each of them he is a vampire https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alucard

When he doesn't look the same as the one from Hellsing why do you think he is from Hellsingx.x

He's from Castlevania and he was born the son of a vampire, okay!o.o You can't be undead when you never died.

Ho, game series. I didn't play it. Ok.

He was born the son of a vampire, okay!o.o You can't be undead when you never died.

It's very philosophical issue :-)

Even apart from any specific game's lore, "what" Alucard happens to be is known as a dhampir.

(And it is correct that he is not Undead.)

As i can see in this article:

Sub grouping Undead

Gordon Melton, from his book, The Vampire Book: The Encyclopedia of the Undead, in some areas, a true dhampir possessed a "slippery, jelly-like body and lived only a short life—a belief that vampires have no bones."

It's categorized like that because it's derived from fiction that involves the Undead. =P

Stories and settings involving them often have a point where they choose to live as a human or as a vampire. But they generally don't stop being a Daywalker unless they've been mortally wounded.

I have watched Hellsing 8 times and yeah i think he should drop one of the keywords for Undead and get a picture with his badass red costume

Hellsing's Alucard isn't fitting with Arcomage's motif and setting the way that Castlevania's Alucard is. (And Castlevania's Alucard is a cooler character, anyway, if I may throw my opinion in the mix.)
