Talk:Walter C. Dornez

message: I removed the following from the article: Note: In chapter 78, it is implied that Alucard and Walter might have been rivals competing for Seras and Integra.  Before they begin their battle, Alucard says that they are both just his now.
It is not a "rivalry" of the sort the statement claims. Alucard believes that serving Integra and being looked up to by Seras is an honor. Alucard says that Integra is his master alone, and Seras as a follower/student is his alone. Walter will no longer be a factor in their lives - only Alucard will. This was to annoy Walter, since for a brief moment, it seemed as if Walter might have regretted his betrayal, given how emotional Integra and Seras were for his loss.

thread_title:  Rivals for Seras and Integra 

message: Instead of how the article claims, it's hardly of any support to Walter's innocence, that he helped protecting the Hellsing mansion in Vol 2. He couldn't have exposed his true loyalties that early, as Millennium had not yet made its move. Besides, he clearly didn't even intend to kill Jan Valentine. Later in Vol 5 he destroyed the treacherous officials in the army base, in order to protect Integra, because the Major wanted her alive.

replies: text: Alright, was that latest events description ("in chapter 79...") totally made up? 'Cause I happen to have some iching that goes for "yes". Since when did this article turn into manga-chapter-by-chapter? Rexas 16:13, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

message: It is listed in the article that the name of the hound which Alucard used to attack Walter is Baskerville.  Unless I'm mistaken, this isn't true.  Baskerville was merely part of a pun ventured by Walter.  In the translated version, he says: "What am I to this hound? One of the Baskervilles?"  This was merely a joke, as he was being attacked by a giant hound, such as the Baskerville family was in the Sherlock Holmes story.
:The translators at BK (well, the text editor actually) deliberately changed the original lines because she thought it would be inaccurate. Walter is actually saying 黒犬獣　（ブラックドッグ）! バスカヴィル! (Black dog! Baskerville!). She said: The reason I wrote it the way I did is because the Hound in the Holmes novel is not named Baskerville. Baserville is the family name of a group of people in the novel who are stalked and killed by a starved black dog.
:To have Walter say to the HellHound 'The Black Dog...Baskerville!' would be even more innacurrate than anything, even if that's what the literal translation was.
:So the dog's name actually is Baskerville. It's just named after the novel. Schrödinger 00:26, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Um, there is no dispute. The text editor literally invented new lines because she disagreed with Hirano's choice of name for the dog. She argued that, since the dog in the novel isn't named Baskerville, then the dog in Hellsing cannot be named Baskerville. This doesn't really make any sense, as the dog may be simply named after the novel. This would be like saying that, since the cat in Erwin Schrödinger's famous thought experiment wasn't named Schrödinger, it is wrong to name the catboy in Hellsing Schrödinger. She isn't arguing that Walter isn't calling the dog Baskerville, she is arguing that it's incorrect for Hirano to name the dog Baskerville. They released a second version of the chapter with the literal translation intact. Walter is saying "The black dog! Baskerville!". Schrödinger 05:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Nah, you didn't stir me up. =P Yeah, before I actually read the chapter, but knew that Alucard's hellhound (singular) appeared and was called Baskerville, I was confused. In the fight with Luke, there were definitely at least two heads. But in this chapter, and on this page from volume 8, it has a single large head. At first I thought that maybe the famous 8-eyed dog from the TV series opening and OVA trailer - which still hasn't appeared in the manga - was going to be in it, but it turned out to be the dog that ate Luke...
