Personality
In the anime, the story is told primarily from Seras' point of view, allowing to act as more of a narrator.

She is more aggressive than her manga/OVA counterpart as, on her first meeting with Alucard in the first episode, she first shoots him. In the next episode, she talks back to both Integra, for mockingly telling her to not drink the blood of her employees, and Alucard for constantly calling her by her nickname. In the 8th episode, her impulsive personality can also be observed when she mockingly speaks to a mercenary and bends the barrel of his weapon without hesitation after he made fun of her.

Nevertheless, she is still extremely loyal and returns the empathy of those who respect her.

Order 01: The Undead
Seras was placed in Division 11 of the English Police, the precursor to SO19 team sent to Cheddar to combat the vampire. Seras' D-11 teammates often watched out for her, affectionately referring to her as "Kitten". Seras' entire D-11 team were turned into ghouls, either by the priest vampire or the other ghouls roaming Cheddar. Seras then meets with a Ghoul, she was ready to pull the trigger to kill her, until Alucard appears.

Alucard then heals his shoulder, returning to the state he was in before being shot. Seras runs away from Alucard. Seras then founds a Church where the Cheddar Priest is in, she walks into the church, she meets the Cheddar priest. The priest then pulls seras using his telekinesis powers. Alucard kicks the door of the church, interrupting them while also insulting the Cheddar priest. The Cheddar priest commands his army of Ghouls to shoot Alucard. Seras watches Alucard's body falls to the ground to her dismay. To her surprise, Alucard's body begins regenerating, and kills the ghouls except for the Priest. The Priest takes Seras hostage. The Priest tries to convince Alucard to join him, but it doesn't work, because Alucard ignores him and gives Seras a choice if she wants to be a vampire or not, cause he has no other way of saving her. Seras agrees and Alucard smirks then shoots her in the heart, the bullet penetrates her body with the Priest, killing him. Alucard watches Seras's body then begins to turn Seras into a vampire.

As Integra waits for Alucard, Alucard brings Seras with him to her annoyance. Integra says that Alucard took too long for just one target, while also saying that she will call a rescue for Seras. Alucard disagrees then asks Integra if she could transfer Seras into the Hellsing Organization.

The Hellsing Organization soon came to the scene, and cleans the scene. Seras apologizes to Peter for not pulling the trigger, Peter responds with "They say people who fail in their first battle will live longer, but... I guess in your case you'll keep living until you're fed up, right?", Seras responds with "I guess so.". Soon they all return to the Mansion.

Seras was called by Peter to talk for a moment, but was interrupted by Walter who says that he's gonna provide her for her daily needs. Peter soon leaves the confused Seras. Walter then takes Seras to her room. Seras looks around the room, inspecting the items. She then looks at the Coffin bed, and says that she dreamed about sleeping on a bed like that. The bed soon moves, a confused Seras asked what is happening, Walter answers her, Seras then realizes it was a coffin. A bored Seras was seen thinking about what to do.

An unsuspected Integra says that they work for her, and don't suck their blood, an angered Seras says that he's not like that, Integra then leaves as Seras stares at her. Seras comes back to the room, and stares at a Medical Blood. Seras was hesistant to drink the blood and punches it.

Aftermath
Alucard won the battle and what happens to her is unknown.

Integra Hellsing
Her relationship with Integra Hellsing is strained and professional in the TV series. It's purely employee-employer with a degree of prejudice on Integra's behalf. Despite that, Seras makes it her duty to protect Integra and even shows regret when she could not save her from Bubbancy's attack. Seras' loyalty to Integra might be determined by Alucard acting like a bridge between her and his master. In the 10th episode, after observing Alucard's reactions during Integra's surgery, she voiced the conclusion "The master of my master".

Alucard
Alucard seems to be rather patient and accepting of Seras' refusal to drink blood. He mentions Seras' decision as an answer to Integra scolding him on taking a fledgling. He states that she is incomprehensible, along with humans. Seras appears to be extremely loyal to him, disobeying his order to draw back as to help him against Incognito.

Helena
Seras looks up to her and Helena inspires Seras to realize that she is a vampire. Despite this, Helena seems to hate the Hellsing Organization, as she claims to have lost many friends to their "butchery" over the years. On the other hand, she appears to hold no personal grudge towards Seras. When Helena dies, Seras was distraught at not being able to save her, but Helena comforted the young Draculina, telling her not to be sad as she was now finally able to die. In her last words, she told Seras to be a loyal and worthy companion to her master and to destroy Incognito, warning of his trap. After Seras left, Helena's remains were destroyed when her home caught fire and burned down. Her final wishes were realized when Seras helped Alucard defeat Incognito and his minions, thus avenging Helena and allowing her to rest in peace.

Peter Fargason
Peter was the one who's kind and accepting of Seras's nature, aside from Gareth and others, he has a very deep connection to Seras and he acts like a father figure. He works closely with Seras to train her to become a good soldier and to bring out her amazing talents. When Fargason was shot and killed by a British Sniper, Seras got angry and killed many ghouls, she seems to cry blood after killing them.

Gareth Henderson
Seras seems comfortable with Gareth, responding quickly if she was ordered by him, after all, Gareth is one of the few people that welcomes and accepts Seras's vampiric nature. He is understanding and teaches her how to aim properly. When Gareth died due to the hands of Alexander Anderson, Seras was shocked and distraught.

Walter C. Dornez
Walter was highly respected by Seras and was also her mentor as an elder. Walter often cared for and encouraged Seras as the butler of the Hellsing family.

Powers and Abilities

 * Superhuman Strength: As a former police officer, Seras is well-trained in hand-to-hand combat and can easily take down opponents using a combination of brute strength and technique, as in the case of Jan Valentine. Specifically, she put the vampire in a hold, preventing him from moving, despite his strength. She demonstrates some maneuvers and attacks such as kicks and karate chops that suggest that she is taught in some kind of martial art. Under extreme stress, she can go into a berserk rage and destroy a few dozen ghouls in mere seconds as seen during the Valentine brothers' attack. Despite having a slight frame and little weight, she has phenomenal lifting strength and load-bearing abilities, but her limbs come under none of the normal strain from heavy weaponry worth several hundred pounds, and such objects do not crumble when carried. Furthermore, extremely high-recoil and normally turret-fixed weapons like the Harkonnen I afford no such problems to Seras, even though powerful muscles would afford her little help without a strong footing. she even bends a machine gun barrel with ease.
 * Superhuman Speed: Seras has can move and react at superhuman speeds.
 * Third Eye: This clairvoyant-like sense lets her penetrate illusions and see things from afar as well. This ability also gives her superhuman accuracy, as she was able to snipe Jessica.
 * Regeneration: She has the regenerative ability of an average vampire.
 * Soul Absorption: A basic vampire ability. By draining a person of their blood, Seras gains dominance over their souls, and inherits their memories and minds as they fuse together.
 * Daywalking: Other vampires operate in the dark, because of a presumed weakness to light. Seras however seems to have no problem with sunlight, she was seen walking normally under the sun for a few episodes.

"Harkonnen" 30mm Hellsing anti-median cannon
The Hellsing ARMS Anti-Tank Cannon 'Harkonnen', often referred to as simply "The Harkonnen", is the preferred firearm of Seras Victoria. She is the only one who uses it, and is probably one of the few who can because of its weight; Seras' sharp precision and superhuman strength are ideal for using it. The Harkonnen is stated by Walter to have enough firepower to destroy nearly anything other than a main battle tank, as well as being superior to the majority of military weapons.
 * Caliber: 30mm uranium ammunition
 * Total length: 1900mm (1.90m)
 * Weight: 83kg
 * Magazine: 1 bullet

Hellsing Anti-Midians
Seras received this rifle, which is assumed to be standard issue for Hellsing soldiers, in the first few episodes of the anime. This was before Walter decided that she needed a sidearm that complemented her superhuman vampire strength.

This rifle was fully automatic, as it appeared to be self-loading. it is used with a drum magazine. The stock engraving reads "Anti-Midians" and gives the caliber of the round as a massive 13.7mm, unusually large for a rifle.

Arwen 37
The ARWEN 37 is a non-lethal launcher which fires 37 mm non-lethal rounds (foam or wooden or tear gas payload) designed for riot control. It has a 5-round rotary drum magazine. "ARWEN" is an acronym for "Anti Riot Weapon ENfield".
