YOU FUCKING SHOT ME!

The few episodes you have might be the only versions left for all I know unless you try to dig on any old trackers that are still up, as all I can find is various flavors of the DVD release even on the private trackers. Although if you list the groups you have it might make it easier for other anons to help you out. Could you also share some examples of how the TV release differs from the DVD release to show what you mean?

This is a clip of the opening in italian is from the group Knights, but they didnt complete the series from what i dug up.
The only other group i could dig up was Akuma fansubs(Soldats?) did some or all of them, i dont know what language its in.

I guess this site isnt letting me upload anything today, weird.

Lets try this again.
Never had an issue here before and suddenly now i do.

Here is a link then.

max file size was set to the default (10mb)
i increased it to 20mb, see if that works

>>360

It was only 6mb what i was trying to upload. Could be something on my end so i switch device.

Here is the entire 3rd episode by Akuma fansubs. Its only around 50 mb but the sound gets off sync.

EDIT: removed duplicate posts

I dont know why it triple posted.

I was able to find episodes 1,2 and 3 from akuma subs, which all suffer from audio timing issue, and just the single 1st episode from knights, thats all i was able to find.
The first episode seems to be the same from all sources ive found except for the opening on the broadcast versions.

Hopefully someone else has better luck than i did.

These video files are way too big, that's all. I don't want to raise the limit since it could lead to the server filling up more quickly.

>>370

I wasnt trying to upload them here, i know they are too big for that, just post the links and text reply.
For some reason now the reply counter hangs at 100% and never fully posts while im here. I see they are going thru when i come back to check later but not while im browsing the site. I was posting fine before the site update.

So, after mucho searching and trials i can say that these broadcast episodes were not on any of the earliest NTSC region 1 DVD releases.
Ive seen a few claims these were on DVD but not one person actually backing those claims up.
The earliest DVD release i can find dates for are the Rescripts VHSs and DVDs which came out a week or so after the show ended its original broadcast(release date for Rescript 1 is 1/25/2002), the earliest DVD releases america got was in june of 2002 and they arent on any of those.
I dont know the dates other distributors for other countries got(selecta-vision, madman, ect.) but i doubt they were earlier than the Rescripts.

Bumping since im here.

I don't know if this is much help. But there's this Youtuber called Johnny Joestar who worked on making remasters of some of Ishii's unreleased tracks for Hellsing (i.e. Golden Ball Heaven) and he even collaborated with Ishii to make some original tracks.
Anyhow a while back he did a comparison video of the old broadcast footage and the final version. And in a followup video he mentioned that the broadcast footage was on Japanese DVDs before the "Rescript" versions. And that a youtuber named Shockwave984

However, unfortunately, some people in the comments mention that this DVD doesn't actually contain broadcast footage, and it only appears this way due to the fact that the promotional art of the DVD uses screencaps from the broadcast footage.
So unfortunately, the broadcast footage might be lost media. I definitely remember seeing the old footage used in some AMVs and it's how Johnny Joestar got a lot of his footage, but I don't know if we'll ever find the full uncut versions of every episode. You might have better luck with the Lost Media Wiki.

Thanks for the reply.
As you can see in >>502 for the rescript releases they came out right after the series ended its initial broadcast run. This is the earliest release out of all the domestic and foreign releases of Hellsing TV.
However, they definately dont contain the broadcast version.
All the broadcast episodes i found on Veoh by dead fansubbers right before it died so if there was any more there its gone now.
Such a shame really.

>>802
Then yeah, unfortunately it would seem that you'd have better luck going to the Lost Media Wiki and asking there given how good their track record is at finding stuff like this. There is a chance someone might have the episodes in their hard drive somewhere, I think it's the best/last shot for now.
Part of me wants to say that there's a chance that some obscure Hellsing fansite has it. But at the same time, I think Hellsing's popularity in the west only really got traction after the Rescript DVD already released, so that's the only thing that makes me think otherwise. But still worth a shot. Plus given we have documentation like AMVs and comparison images ( >>372 )
and whatnot, I think there's definitely SOME chance someone still has all the broadcast era episodes. I know it's pretty redundant to mention, but I think these are the only possible leads I can think of.
The other last (but unlikely) possibility is some of the foreign fansubs. Since I am fluent in Italian, I could also try looking into some Italian sites regarding the Knights fansub group mentioned before, but I doubt I'll find much. But I'll also try and see if I can find anything there, even if I think it'll probably be a dead-end.

When i looked into it i believe soldats was the only group that fansubbed all 13 episodes. The eastern european groups i found episodes of had soldats on them so they subbed over their rips.
I believe knights only did the first one and stopped.
