Axis Powers Hetalia is the first Series of a popular anime(japanese animation), the next series name is World Series.

Let’s begin with the plot.

Hetalia was originally a web comic written by Hidakaz Himaruya, meant solely for a small chuckle.

Hetalia is about countries personified as anime characters (though they are slightly stereotyped, it is meant to help the viewer get a laugh from it) Examples include:
America- Convinced he’s the hero of the world, likes to talk the loudest, and oblivious to the atmosphere of the conversations around him.

England- A formal gentleman who absolutely despises France and tolerates America

Italy (north)- Pasta loving womanizer who surrenders at any slight provocation of violence towards him

Italy(South): A grumpy man who is extremely harsh towards any male, yet surprisingly tolerant when around women. He enjoys Tomatoes, which were introduced to him by Spain.

You get the point. The first series is mainly about, you guessed it, World War 2, although there is no actual violence, it is just to establish the friendship between the cheery Italy and grumpy Germany. There are many political and historical jokes put into play. Each episode is 5 minutes long, and although there is a bit of fanservice, there isn’t any actual countries coupled together. Although the cute Art style and (somewhat) educational sections, I don’t recomend this for a young audience. This is for more of the age group of 16+ Due to the language, and overal plot of season 1. Although they depict the Axis as the protagonists of season 1, they still make everything light-hearted and humorous. If you are ever looking for a good laugh, Hetalia is always a good alternative.

  • They’re correct about America we are the heroes of the world.

    I get a feeling it may be more of a secret front to sell homosexuality. I mean where are the women?

    • There are a handful of women characters, and because the characters are representatives of countries, and you believe women should be behind men, why do you want a female representative of a country?

          I am a major fan of Hetalia, and I can assure you that Germany is a man. However, the creator of Hetalia, Himaruya Hidekaz, has made female versions of most of the main characters, so you may have seen Fem!Germany.

          You mean Germania? German is Germany’s ancestor, he just has long hair. He was friends with Rome.

      The creator decided gender based on whether or not a nation seemed masculine or feminine. So far, there are ten female nations (Hungary, Taiwan, Vietnam, Liechtenstein, Belgium, Belarus, Ukraine, Wy, Monaco, Seychelles) and ongoing. Most of the characters are male, but that’s just coincidental.

      • “heretic ? you know what it’s mean it’s mean that if we have commited a crime against a church like stealing or Killing or even burning a church”

        No. That is not what heresy means. Heresy is holding a religious opinion contrary to church dogma.

  • “Hetalia” could easily be mistyped as “hentai” if children were searching for it on Bing!

    The whole thing is probably a perverted Japanese ruse to expose children to poorly animated tentacle pornography.

    But nothing the Japanese do surprises me. They used to have vending machines that sold schoolgirls’ used panties. Sickos.

      What? What do the creators of some obscure anime stand to gain from that? What is the point? They have nothing to gain, yet by your logic that is what happens?

      Don’t knock Hetalia!
      You’ve just a thing for going gainst everything that isn’t in your view. We say Black you say White.
      The only majorly perverte thing in the anime is France, but he’ll go for anything that moves. There is a viewer rating on it, dumbfuck, so if a child does see it they either won’t get it or it’s the parents fault. It doesnt do anything to anyone, except changes the way you look at a world map.
      As you preach to non believers, ‘don’t believe what the media tells you!’ because this site IS a form of media. Hypocrites.

          • Okay, I have decided to give this show an objective critical view and let’s just say I was quite surprised. I was right in saying that the show is nothing but gay men, but something odd I did note is that it doesn’t pander to gay men, but rather its intended audience is women. I was curious to see why that is.

            After some serious research I saw that it is related to Japan’s insidious plot to lower the global birthrate. Through the use of these cartoons 75% of the young men in Japan aren’t interested in perusing relationships. A sort of escapism is involved in these cartoons that harkens back to their grandfathers and how the women of their time were submissive and loyal. Nothing like the feminist she hulks of today. As such the women of that country are incredibly frustrated, and much like the lonely “fag hags” of the west, seek out the company of a homogay to become their adopted husband. Seeing an opportunity to further refine their birthrate lowering weapon, the Japanese started to make Cartoons that depicted gay men produced to specifically fulfill the “fag hag” desires of those frustrated women.

            Their plan is working beautifully, more people are dying off than are being born in that tiny Island nation, What’s most worrying though is that they’re weaponizing this method and actively applying it to the western nations. Possibly to weaken their enemies before they launch their invasion force.

          • So basically you got off on a cartoon about humanized nations and now you’re blaming Japan that you made a mess?

            Care to prove it or you talk shit again?
            What’s a “homogay” again? You will never learn that, right?
            And what’s wrong, if a woman has a gay or a bisexual as a friend?

            They wont lunch any invasion. Stop doing drugs already.

    Ahh, Britain and Canada are my favorites!

    Britain – a cynical gentleman (also a former pirate and punk) who has a love for sarcasm and tea. He can’t cook for the life of him, and is skilled in black magic and curses. Constantly bickers with France for what ever small reasons. Former carer of America, who’s personality is stated above.

    Canada – America’s brother who looks exactly like him. Because of his physical likeness, he is often mistaken for America, which causes him to receive trouble from Cuba. He is barely noticed by anyone and everyone forgets his name all the time. Former charge of France, who is a major pervert and constantly fighting with Britain.

    I don’t watch Hetalia but in High School in my AP US History classes we always had this group of girls that would use Hetalia references every time we had a project or a presentation.

    Needless to say, those girls were pretty awesome.

    And at Anime Expo there was a female America Cosplayer, cosplaying as Captain America.

    When she saw me she shrieked at me and hugged me so hard I almost passed out and then she followed me for an hour. Probably because I was Kid Loki.

    Wow, bravo GeminiStarforce324! Not only do I love Hetalia, but this has to be the first article I’ve seen on this site that didn’t make me want to rant for hours. You’re not biased, and there doesn’t seem to be anything hateful at all in here. Also, good for you, being openly pansexual on a site like this. I respect you. :)
