RUINS (吠虚,, Hoekyo) is the second soundtrack of the Hellsing anime.
Released by Pioneer LDC, INC. on every region including North America and Japan, it was published first on Japan in June 22, 2002, then it was later released after the English dub had fully aired on every other region on September 2, 2003; 2 months after Raid had been published.
In addition, unlike Raid, all of the music provided are fully written and composed by Yasushi Ishii. However, just like Raid, it's considered a collector's item because of how hard it is to find. This album also has way more songs than Raid, however. Just like the first soundtrack, it is not available anywhere, and it seems it will never be available on any streaming platform.
Cover
The cover of the album features Integra, with her military outfit on, cocking her pistol. Behind Integra, the background features the Hellsing Logo with the iconic "We are on a Mission from God" moto. This scene does not happen in any of Hellsing's media, including the OVA and the manga. While a similar scene happened, it was Integra pointing her pistol at Anderson, instead of cocking her pistol.
