The Hunter vs The No-Life King. Who wins?
I don't know nearly as much about D as I do about Alucard: does he have anyway to permanently put Alucard down, and can he stop what Alucard can do to him? I mean, Alucard's limitless supernatural killing bullets are already a good start, his speed + healing keep him alive, etc.
Isn't D like, significant fraction of lightspeed level in the novels?
I also recall him being able to just cancel regeneration by virtue of being that good at cutting people.
Alucard might be in for a rough time.
If he's that fast, and can cancel regen on Alucard's level, we have our winner. Just the speed alone, if he's got the ability to do damage (and I think he does) ought to give him a ten count, even if it's not a pure kill. Bell, slice slice slice, chuck parts around the arena, keep slicing until it takes even The Crimson F$£%er more than 10 seconds to bring himself back. Al's only shot would be releasing pretty much everything, and maybe drowning D or absorbing some blood from where D cut himself shaving.
Did some digging in old threads, feats being quoted for D include being FTL, punting people into orbit, absorbing planet busting energies with his left hand, resisting reality warping and transmutation, breaking out of dimension dumps and apparently attacking people while they are mid teleport.
I think Alucard might be out of his depth here.
Anyone who actually knows the novels want to weigh in?
Oh, yeah, totally forgot about the left hand thing: it can probably just EAT Alucard.
D will never be as much fun, however.
D reacted to an attack that made it from... Mars, I think? or somewhere in space (it has been a while), to hit him on Earth faster than light could ever make it.
D has also done things like stand inside darkness with the pressure of a super massive black hole and it did not even muss his hair.
He once attacked something so hard that it re-wrote time and erased a singularity from existence...
And yes, he has a technique that shuts off regen.
Just to throw out a few random things. Alucard is not in his league.

Kenpachi: Some say my mother was a train. Some say that I'm a rejected Godzilla monster too strong for the series canon. But everyone says: I'M THE KEEEEENPACHIIIIII!!!!
D is... not the normal character for Rumbles.
The movies have him doing some silly stuff, to be sure, but the novels are absurd.
As an example, the Nobles (vampires) do insane things like create "infinite" space inside of their coffins, creating dimensions and entire universes, etc.
D resists attacks that obliterate them. He also does things like cross "infinite" space in the span of a few words being thought.
He closes holes in space with his sword using skill alone, his pendant absorbs heat attacks that are around a billion degrees.
If I remember correctly he read (or it was implied that he read) the Akashic Records. These things are multiversal and reading them can begin the end of all existence, or so it is believed. The person reading them is said to be erased from time by their power. Yet he remains.
He is pretty close the epitome of a Deus ex Machina type character.
Anime fight, Alucard wins due to his insane regen.
Manga fight is an absurd curbstomp in D's favor. The author of the original Vampire Hunter D manga even admitted that he specifically created D to be the most overpowered character he could imagine. D's sword actually blocks regen in the manga, and he has absurd feats of power and skill.
Well technically when his 5 fingernails became the the official containers of the 5 elements of nature,he was able to rewrite time and history anytime he punched someone so as they would not exist the minute he laid his hand's on them.
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

You're all forgetting one important ability that D possesses.
Being insanely handsome.
