Seras Victoria《セラス・ヴィクトリア, Serasu Vikutoria》 is one of the three main protagonists of the Hellsing series created by Kohta Hirano, alongside Alucard and Sir Integra. In both adaptations of Hellsing, she is voiced by Fumiko Orikasa in the Japanese sub and K.T. Gray in the English dub.
Seras was turned into a vampire by Alucard to save her from a would-be fatal gunshot wound in the chest that he also caused while shooting the Vicar. From that point, she assists the Hellsing Agency against the increased vampire attacks and later becomes a close associate of Sir Integra and forms a romantic bond with Pip Vernedead. Seras is a Draculina, a term used to refer to the female members of the Dracul bloodline, since she has been turned into a vampire by Alucard.
Appearance
Seras was initially an attractive young woman with blonde hair cut into a flare cut and blue eyes. Occasionally, her eyes assumed a red hue in moments of extreme rage or vampiric bloodlust.[10] She had a fairly broad-shouldered torso, yet maintained a very voluptuous and buxom figure, which was further accentuated by the fact that she is considerably shorter than virtually all of her allies. Before becoming a Real Vampire, she usually wore a yellow Hellsing uniform with a matching mini skirt, long white stockings, ankle-fold brown boots, and brown gloves.
As a Real Vampire, her hair lightened to an almost platinum blonde color, and her eyes became permanently red, but nothing changed about her overall figure with the notable exception of her left arm; after losing the original one to Zorin Blitz, it was replaced by a mass of writhing black and orange shadowy matter that initially manifested as a whip-like set of tendrils. Shortly after transforming, however, she learned how to mold the shadow matter into the shape of her original arm. She continued to wear a uniform of the same style as before, but colored burgundy red instead of yellow.[c]
Personality
A very brave, strong-willed, and heroic young woman who often rejects following orders of her master that cross with her personal beliefs.[11][12] However, Seras Victoria is a loyal and trustworthy soldier who will diligently follow the orders of her commander, provided said commander has proven their worth. Although her level of maturity is somewhat questionable, she seems to be the child the others could not be, yet she possesses a sort of worldly maturity and superficial intelligence that her peers lack, as well as a sort of "nurture winning against nature" mentality, as opposed to others; as a result, she is frequently treated like a child among her colleagues.[13] Her devotion to morals and integrity is rather unusual, considering her past, being noted to have gotten in trouble for violent outbursts at an orphanage she lived in as a child.[14]
While she chose to be a vampire on her own accord, she still clings to the very last bit of humanity still left inside of her, so she refuses to drink blood[15][16] (also fearing her own power[17]),[18][19] oftentimes being unable to bear the fate that she chose out of pure desperation[20] and questioning the state of her body,[21] which had drastically changed[22] as an indication of body dysphoria. Despite her unwillingness to drink blood and an ideology that repeatedly clashes with her colleagues, in moments of pure desperation or the sudden urge to drink blood, she slips into a state of pure rage and berserk,[23][24] as it is the blood of a vampire that flows through her.[25] She fears losing her allies, which is a direct result of her traumatic past (where she witnessed the brutal deaths of her parents)[26] and the harrowing events of Cheddar (where she witnessed her colleagues turning into ghouls)[27] that completely changed the trajectory of her life.[28] Witnessing the total annihilation of the GATE officers by Alucard in Rio horrified Seras, a massacre that she did not partake in and actions that she disagrees with[29][12] for the fact that they were human and she was a cop.[30]
As a Real Vampire, her demeanor slightly changed, and she appears to be more confident in facing her enemies, exerting a powerful presence that terrifies even the hardened Artificial Vampire soldiers of the Last Battalion.[31] Although she still retains her cheerful nature, she was previously nervous and clumsy in her reunion with Alucard[32] and lends a fond farewell along with a good luck to Walter, even after he had betrayed Hellsing.[33] 30 years later, her demeanor has not changed one bit, but at some point she exchanges a fierce glance and confident smirk with Heinkel Wulf.[34] Although she quickly reverts back to her childlike nature once the tension is released and she converses with her allies.[35]
The crux of her being lies within her incredible willpower, which underlies the naïve outlook that she presents, clinging onto her humanity and living despite her troubling background or even against a foe much more powerful than her, in which she is stranded in a situation described as "a hell at the bottom of a witch's cauldron" by Alucard.[36] This act of valor proved to Alucard that she is worthy of becoming a vampire for not giving up in the face of doom.[37][38] Even after becoming a Real Vampire, she chose to still embrace her humanity and charming outlook; it is her humanity that defines her, even if she is considered to be a "monster," as proven by her own decision to finally become a Real Vampire out of genuine love to intertwine with her soulmate.[39]
Relationships
Allies
- Pip Vernedead: Their relationship blossomed unexpectedly amid the events leading up to the invasion of London; Seras was initially bothered and creeped out at Vernedead's advances, which she considered to be "sexual harassment" at one point for singing a "dirty song,"[40] yet a bond of trust between the two soon began[41] and rapidly progressed into love upon Zorin Blitz's invasion of the Hellsing Headquarters. Vernedead takes a heavy interest in Seras, deeming her of so much importance that if the Wild Geese would ever let a girl like Seras die, then they would be considered a disgrace (a sentiment shared by the rest of the Wild Geese);[42] Vernedead also often teases her with pet names,[43] causing the timid Seras to be annoyed at times.[44] Nevertheless, she respects Vernedead and trusts him in whatever situation is assessed,[45] being amazed at his intellect and trickery[46] (and vice versa[47]).
However, when Vernedead dies at the hands of Zorin, Seras bursts into tears;[48] the only reason Seras awakened her vampiric instincts—unlocking her full potential as a Real Vampire—was because of Vernedead's wishes[49] and her desire to become one with her lover,[39] sharing one final (and only) kiss and a heartfelt conversation just before he dies.[50] Seras is moved into rage when Zorin starts belittling Vernedead.[51] The two symbolically worked together to defeat Zorin,[52] where her intertwined memory that she now shares with Vernedead nullifies Zorin's memory reading ability,[53] and later worked together to overcome her greatest obstacle yet, The Captain,[54][55] where Vernedead's encouragement heavily helps Seras in her fight,[56] especially nearing the end of the battle where she summoned Vernedead as a familiar to finish off The Captain.[57][58] 30 years later, Vernedead and Seras' relationship still remains intact; he is now referred to as "Seras Victoria's Shadow" and has covered the Hellsing Headquarters as a watcher.[59]
- Alucard: Seras is the most subtle but distinct reflection of her master, Alucard, and they contrast perfectly. In life, Alucard was a warlord that enforced order on his people and strove to destroy the enemies of that order, while Seras was a peacekeeper serving the public and desired to protect the people. Both Alucard and Seras stem from tragic backgrounds, yet Alucard was consumed with rage and selfishly used God as an excuse to take out that rage on others, while Seras resolved to help others not have to face the same hardships. Being Alucard's first fledgling since Mina Harker, Seras and Alucard maintain a complex relationship that is closer to the ties of a family than master-and-slave (however, not adjacent to a father-daughter bond);[60] Seras demonstrates great loyalty for him that transcends the actions of a slave obeying and serving a master.
Alucard is frustrated at first with Seras' stubbornness in not drinking blood[61] but was always confident that eventually she would eventually drink;[62] he respects and admires her will to reject resignation,[36][37] turning her into a vampire on a whim[63] based on her own accordance to live.[64] While their ideologies often clash with each other,[11][12] Seras aids Alucard in his combat with Tubalcain Alhambra[65] and later attempts to fight Alexander Anderson (though her attack is comically cut short).[66] Her shy and nervous behavior toward Alucard is quickly overcome once she becomes a Real Vampire and he addresses her by her full name, realizing her full potential.[32] Seras' alarmed calls bring Alucard back from torpor—the last visage in his dream was Seras' face, to which Alucard remarks, "I hear a voice. A voice calling me. Oh, huh. It's you."[67] In the end, Seras was the only one who had unwavering faith that Alucard would return after his disappearance at the end of the war.[68]
- Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing: Through Alucard, Seras and Integra's relationship is that of a master and slave; as such, Seras expresses great loyalty towards Integra, and the two form a close friendship.[69] Seras stands with Arthur Hellsing and Sir Penwood as one of the few individuals that Integra can trust and openly show affection towards. Integra embraced Seras, pleading with her to stop after she mercilessly attacked the Hellsing Military ghouls in a fit of rage rather than shouting at her head-on to stop.[70] When Integra is ordered to kill the remaining ghouls, Seras expresses great sadness for her.[71] Integra was also the reason why Seras grew more comfortable with her nature as a vampire.[72]
Seras stays with Integra during the thirty-year transitional period, where the two have grown even closer as companions.[35] Seras teases Integra in a similar fashion to how Alucard used to tease her,[73] and Integra confesses some insecurities about her aging appearance.[74] Still, once Seras senses that Integra is in danger, she is at her side in a moment's time; her heroism is cut short when she realizes Alucard has returned.[75]
Enemies
- Zorin Blitz: Their rivalry is rooted deep within non-existent respect on each other's part, with Seras being heavily disgusted by Zorin's actions. The combination of her sadism and masochistic-like behavior pushed Seras to her limit, motivating her to defeat Zorin's forces in order to stop further bloodshed[76] (to unfortunately no avail until there were 3 members left standing). However, Zorin's sadistic actions resulted in severe consequences once Seras drank the blood of Pip Vernedead[77] and proceeded to single-handedly decimate Zorin and all of her men in the fight that followed[78] after awakening her vampiric instincts.[52] Seras' hatred for Zorin is fixed once Seras claims that she would not drink Zorin's blood, not even one microliter.[79]
- Walter C. Dornez: Walter was highly respected by Seras and was also her mentor as an elder. Despite Walter becoming a traitor, Seras and Walter still genuinely care for each other, and he was taken aback by her gratitude for him as the butler of Hellsing as they wished each other to take care in their final words of exchange despite officially being friends no longer.[33] When Integra told Seras that Walter had passed away, Seras expressed sadness on her face.[80][81]
- The Captain: The Captain is Seras' silent, deadly adversary.[54] Seras had a hard time facing The Captain but was encouraged by her familiar, Pip Vernedead,[56] who finished The Captain off with the final blow for Seras.[57][58] When The Captain dies with a smile, Vernedead shares his thoughts about him looking like "a child who'd just had a smashing dream," to which Seras agrees.[82]
- Schrödinger: Although Seras never interacted with Schrödinger and was baffled at the sight of a "lad like [that]" being a part of Millennium,[83] she seemed rather embarrassed by Schrödinger greeting her during the Round Table's discussion with The Queen (and Iscariot);[84] mostly because he kept awkwardly staring at her before the exchange.[85]
Powers and Abilities
Servant Vampire
| Servant Vampire | |
|---|---|
| A female Servant Vampire of Alucard with a degree of free will, Seras Victoria—although far and away weaker than a Real Vampire—is a considerably formidable opponent with a strength beyond that of a human, and she is well-versed in hand-to-hand combat and can easily take down opponents using a combination of brute strength and technique. Under extreme stress, she can go into a berserk rage and destroy a few dozen ghouls in mere seconds. The following are what abilities Seras had before her full transformation as a Real Vampire, thus the release of her full potential as a vampire. | |
| Abilities | |
| Enhanced Strength: Despite having a slight frame and little weight, she had phenomenal lifting strength and load-bearing abilities, but her limbs came under none of the normal strain from heavy weaponry worth several hundred pounds, and such objects did not crumble when carried. Furthermore, extremely high-recoil and normally turret-fixed weapons like the Harkonnen and Harkonnen II afforded no such problems to Seras,[86][87][88] even though powerful muscles would afford her little help without a strong footing. In moments of bloodlust, Seras' strength was boosted, and she was easily able to tear through armored ghouls surrounding her.[24] | |
| Enhanced Speed: Seras could move and react at superhuman speeds,[10] flicking Pip Vernedead before he could react,[89] and massacred multiple armored ghouls bare-fisted within seconds.[24] Despite being weighed down by the two 30mm cannons of the Harkonnen II, she was able to attack and kill a group of Millennium vampires.[90] | |
| Hematophagy: As a vampire, Seras has the ability to consume blood raw. She has the ability to turn her teeth into sharp fangs, which helps her suck her victim's blood.[91] As Seras initially refuses to drink blood, her body starts to gradually weaken when starved of blood.[92] Eventually, after being confronted by Integra, she gives in to drinking blood (medical blood) that temporarily boosts her strength.[72] | |
| Soul Absorption: By draining a person of their blood, Seras gains dominance over their souls[48] and inherits their memories and minds as they fuse.[53] Her full potential as a vampire was unlocked after doing so, as seen when she drank Vernedead's blood, which gave her an immense boost of power.[48] | |
| Regeneration: Seras has the regenerative ability of an average vampire. Her limit was seen when Zorin sliced her eyes and chopped her arm off,[93] which she was not able to regenerate from until after she drank Vernedead's blood.[48] | |
| Third Eye: This clairvoyant-like sense lets her penetrate illusions and see things from afar as well. This ability also gives her superhuman accuracy,[94] as she was able to snipe Jessica[95] and Zorin Blitz[96] from more than 600 meters away with pinpoint aim. | |
Real Vampire
| Real Vampire | |
|---|---|
| Awakening her full potential as a Real Vampire after drinking Pip Vernedead's blood, Seras is substantially more powerful than she was as a Servant Vampire, being able to utilize more abilities in addition to enhancements made on her existing abilities. Subsequent souls after Vernedead would thus serve only to increase her overall power level and regenerative abilities without changing the nature of her powers, and her severed left arm is restored as the same type of shadow-matter that Alucard can manipulate. The following are the abilities she gained as a vampire plus the strengthening of her overall abilities. | |
| Abilities | |
| Superhuman Strength: She was able to easily demolish an entire squad of Millennium vampires with her bare hands in mere seconds.[97][78] She was also strong enough to punch off The Captain's arms when their fists collided, although it blew off her arms as well.[98] She was also able to lift an entire missile, upon which she easily hurls it over to The Captain after ripping through metal.[99] | |
| Superhuman Speed and Reflexes: Her speed skyrocketed after drinking Vernedead's blood; she could easily dodge automatic gunfire from Artificial Vampires in a narrow hallway while at the same time ripping them apart before they could react,[78] so much so that even Zorin could not handle her speed.[100] Later on, she could keep up with The Captain’s human form on equal footing.[55][81] | |
| Superhuman Durability and Endurance: Seras survived getting slammed by The Captain in his fully transformed werewolf form and crashing down headfirst to the main hangar from the zeppelin's upper floors.[101] Despite all this damage, she was able to get back up to dodge The Captain's kick before she even began regenerating.[102] She had also been repeatedly shot by The Captain's Mauser at point-blank range, later, however, retaliating with a smirk on her face.[103] | |
| Enhanced Regeneration: Like Alucard, Seras has shown that she possesses the ability to rapidly recover from serious injuries within moments of receiving them. Immediately after becoming a Real Vampire, Seras was able to completely regenerate her damaged eyeballs that were previously slashed by Zorin's scythe.[48] Later, during a battle with The Captain, the two traded blows powerful enough to almost destroy each other's limbs;[98] after Seras emerged victorious, her limbs were shown to have completely recovered to their undamaged state almost instantaneously.[104][81] Curiously, although she was able to immediately regenerate her damaged eyes after completing her transformation, she never regenerated her severed left arm, having it permanently replaced by the shapeshifting shadow matter. | |
| Soul Absorption: By draining a person of their blood, Seras gains dominance over their souls[48] and inherits their memories and minds as they fuse.[53] Her full potential as a vampire is unlocked after doing so, as seen when she drank Pip Vernedead's blood, which gave her an immense boost of power.[48]
Familiar Control: Seras can manifest Vernedead's soul as a familiar, from which she can coordinate with Vernedead in combat,[105] with the latter giving her tactical guidance.[106] She can also materialize Vernedead into the physical world, such as when he emerges from Seras to give The Captain the fatal blow to defeat him.[57][58] | |
Dark Composition: Seras’ amputated arm becomes a limb made of shadow matter, which she can manipulate in a versatile manner. She turned into a shadowy matter after The Captain fired a few bullets into her head, rendering the attacks ineffective and forcing The Captain to back away with her spikes.[103] She was also able to use it as a non-lethal weapon against Iscariot;[107] this effectively becomes Seras' main weapon of choice. 30 years after the Millennium incident, she has such control over her shadow matter that she can mimic Alucard's entire outfit by shapeshifting through the matter,[108] and she has also covered the entire Hellsing Headquarter with her shadow in some kind of makeshift surveillance system, although it was with Vernedead's sentience, complaining loudly when Makube demonstrated his presence by ripping the wallpaper.[59]
| |
| Third Eye: She was able to dispel Zorin's illusionary sorcery at point-blank with a thought.[115] When Zorin again tried to use her memory reading ability on Seras, she instead saw a mixed series of memories, memories contained within the minds of both Vernedead and Seras, before Seras quickly snapped out of it and retaliated.[116] | |
Weapons
- Main article: Seras Victoria/Weapons#Hellsing Ultimate/Manga
| Harkonnen | |
|---|---|
Seras' preferred weapon is the Harkonnen《ハルコネン, Harukonen》. With the Harkonnen in hand, Seras serves perfectly as long-range fire support. 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. Carrying this weapon, the vampirically enhanced Seras serves perfectly as long-range fire support. Her immense strength also allows her to use the weapon while moving; sometimes, she wields it with extraordinary ease, even firing over her shoulder.
| |
| Harkonnen II | |
|---|---|
| Seras uses the Harkonnen II《ハルコンネンII》 to barrage Zorin's Zeppelin II in an overwhelming display of firepower. The ammunition containers are detachable, and Seras is seen using the Harkonnen II without them, though she quickly runs out of ammo. They appear to be both belt- and magazine-fed; when they are first seen, they are belt-fed; however, at one point, she loads them with box magazines. They also appear to be locked-breech recoil operated, as the barrel moves when it fires and it has no gas tube. Described as an "explosive incendiary grenade launcher for wide-area field dominance," the Vladimir《ウラディーミル, Uradīmiru》 is a set of muzzle-fired grenades that are part of the Harkonnen II weapon system. Seras uses these to deliver the final blow to Zorin's Zeppelin II. They are fired seemingly in a similar manner to most muzzle-fired grenades; however, the ignition seems to be primed with a live round, while most real grenades of this type are fired utilizing a blank round.

Concept and Creation
A character similar to Seras was present in Hirano's earlier work, Hellsing: The Legends of Vampire Hunter, called Yuri Kate, an employee of the Hellsing Agency. She was assaulted and turned into a vampire by prototype versions of Luke Valentine and Jan Valentine and rescued by a prototype of Alucard. In creating Hellsing, Hirano thought about adding a female character that would make the dark series "warmer," so he added Seras Victoria, who presented both opportunities, and he described her as the "light that stands out from the darkness."[117] Hirano started the Hellsing storyline with Seras' point of view before gradually moving to an all-out war without focusing on any specific character.[118] Hirano explained that the story first started from Seras' point of view but later evolved to an all-out war with little focus on a specific character.[118]
When the story had progressed about 1/3 as a whole, seeing that a combo between her and Alucard would not be possible, he added in Pip Vernedead to serve as Seras' partner.[119] Commenting on his relationship with Alucard, Hirano stated that it is something complicated but close to the ties of a family; yet, it is uncertain how they truly felt about each other and that it cannot be "master-and-slave" because Integra already fulfilled that dynamic for Alucard, nor is it exactly "father-and-daughter."[60] With the conclusion of her drinking Vernedead's blood, Hirano never thought about the idea of her drinking anyone's blood and joked about it being unnecessary, as Vernedead and Seras should live happily together with no interruptions as a "couple of fools."[120] Seras' signature weapons, Harkonnen and Harkonnen II, are named after the main antagonist of Frank Herbert's novel Dune, Baron Vladimir Harkonnen. This is further reinforced by the appearance of the gun's "spirit" during dream sequences in the manga (and thus OVA) and episode previews in the anime, which bears a strong resemblance to Baron Harkonnen from David Lynch's film adaptation of the book.
Name
Initially not bearing a name in the first few chapters and only exclusively referred to as "Police Girl," her name was revealed in Order 06: Sword Dancer (3) as "セラス・ヴィクトリア," which is written as "Serase Victoria" in the panel. Her first name is most often translated as "Seras" (OVA booklets, Dark Horse release, Geneon US/Funimation releases of the OVA and anime), yet the guidebook spelled it as "Serase," similar to the panel in Order 06: Sword Dancer (3). Hirano remarked that Seras' name bears no meaning.

Interviewer: What's the exact relationship between Alucard and Seras?
Hirano: It's very hard to distinguish that difference. At first, they were saying it should be master-and-slave, but then they changed their minds because they said "no, no, master-and-slave is the relationship between Alucard and Integra." So, we cannot call Alucard and Seras master-and-slave. Maybe it is "part of the same kind," comrades, or, from Seras' point of view, probably Alucard is the master, teacher. They're... feeling-wise, emotion-wise, it will be more close to either... Certainly, of course there is the feeling of the love, but also, it could be something more close to the ties of familiship.
Interviewer: That means that Alucard and Seras is more like a father-daughter bond.
Hirano: There's no one way to distinguish how they feel about it. We cannot just say it's just father and daughter. Many things mix together. It's very complicated. - ↑ Order 07: Dead Zone (1) p. 6. "What a pissant. I'm starting to wish I'd never bothered to suck your blood."
