Hellsing is not a series full of romantic
intrigue, but there's at least one fully developed instance of falling
in love: the romance of Pip and Seras. (I'll say no more of that
for fear of spoiling the manga.)
Aside from the obvious PxS, though, fans love to pair up other characters in assorted fanworks. Some of these non-canon pairings are realistic, well-thought-out, and in-character. Others . . . aren't.
Regardless, fans can get very vehement in defense of whichever pairing they happen to ship. (Vocabulary: "shipping" is the action of supporting a romantic relationship between two characters. A shipper of a pairing is one who supports it.)
I personally am a shipper of AlucardxIntegra. This often seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it pairing; it is not (yet) canon, but the manga seems to be increasingly leaning in the direction of AxI. This site is a presentation of the case for that pairing. If you're still not convinced after looking through it, feel free to join in the debate.
