"Hellsing: The Dawn" is a Japanese mini-series from 5 years ago that consists of 3 short films. The first runs for 9 minutes, the second runs for 7.5 minutes and the last runs for 10.5 minutes, so the whole thing has a runtime of roughly 27 minutes. It plays during the days of World War II and thus consists many references about Nazis (a bit of an irony given Japan's role), but also many supernatural references about zombies. I found neither the action too interesting nor the characters. The historic references seemed very random in my opinion. And this kind of Japanese animation has never been my favorite anyway. The jumps between super-serious action and goofy Japanese anime style were off-putting I have to say. Very odd. Nothing memorable about this trio of short films. The 3rd is not only the longest, it's probably also the weakest. Not recommended.
