Not trivia tropes, also trivia cannot be played with so rewording this.


** Scott "Creator/KaiserNeko" Frerichs just can't seem to avoid this. Asides from picking up the role of Pip Bernadotte when his original actor became hard to reach, he voices several minor characters like Luke Valentine, Reginald Penwood, and many incidental voice lines. Lampshaded by [=Takahata101=] himself, stating the "default option" was to cast Scott for auxiliary characters in the Creator Commentary marathon stream.
** Taka stated during the same marathon stream that casting {{Creator/Lanipator}} as [[BigBad The Major]] was an attempt to avert this for Lani specifically, but Lani ended up playing one incidental Hellsing organization member in Episode 9 anyways.

* TheCameo: Takahata took this and flat out ''sprinted'' with it when it came to voicing the various Nazi vampires and church soldiers because he just had that many roles to fill. Most, if not all of them, are fellow [=YouTubers=] who were big fans of ''Hellsing Ultimate Abridged'' prior.



* ShownTheirWork: The Anderson Hamilton parody song references the main character (also named Anderson) of the hentai manga Angel Dust, an earlier work of Kouta Hirano.

** Possibly hinted at in the final episode when during the montage of Alucard talking with the souls, he mentions how "getting angry about books made for horny teenage girls was ridiculous then, and it's ridiculous now". Beyond just being a mild TakeThat toward the ''[[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Twilight]]'' hatedom, it was likely also a jab at how they started the series. During the Marathon Taka and Kaiser confirmed that this was indeed a jab at their dated joke.

Added DiffLines:

** During the scene with the Nazi soldiers cheering in Episode 5, there is a particular enthusiastic "Woo-woo" from a soldier named Hans. According to Taka, Hans was going to be played by someone for "the Ultimate cameo" in his own words, but they had backed out at the last minute, which led to Kaiser filling in for it.

** During the same marathon, Taka notes that [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnJPDGBOL6zjPbYCFTwbNqg Xthedarkone]] was initially penned to play Luke Valentine in Episode 2, before the team decided to change their minds to have him voice Walter, with Kaiser ended up being casted as Luke. Once they started doing the recording session for Walter however, they realized that it wasn't working, which forced them to recast Walter to Remix from WebAnimation/WeeklyTubeShow instead. Taka states this is one of his biggest casting regrets, where they inadvertently screwed him out of voicing for the show, though adds that Xthedarkone did end up keeping his role in the Cooler Movie for ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' and as a cameo for a Nazi soldier in Episode 6.
