I'm talking like, Bubblegum Crisis, an Anime that I am somehow aware of but have never watched.

I've seen bits and peaces of the stuff that was airing here in the 2000 like; Dragonball, Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, Big O, Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Full Metal Alchemist, Ranma 1/2, Gundam Wing. I have not even begun to touch 1 Peace. Basically, if it was on Toonami, I've probably seen some of it.

I feel like there is stuff from the late 80s through the 90s that were popular through the import scenes that I probably never heard of, that everyone who is in that scene knows and loves.

Hellsing, gothic vampire hunting in contemporary London. Alucard is one of those characters that’s constantly, as the kids put it these days, aura farming. They did a follow up series as well, only watched bits of it.

Hellsing sounds cool, I do like some gothic vampire hunting.

Hellsing Ultimate? It's an odd case of the first Hellsing adaptation being mostly original, then they went back and did a very faithful adaptation of the now-finished manga - even the really silly bits like Seras' dream mentor John McClane.

I think this also happened with Berserk, though of course that process can't be finished now.
