Hetalia

[kirite]

So who here likes Hetalia?  For me since I've always like war stories this manga/anime is really funny to me.

For those who don't know this series, it's a World War story that takes place in a universe where countries of the world are replaced by anime characters.  For example "America" is a guy who's energetic, strong, and has hillarious ideas about how to fix things.  While "Germany" is a character who is very serious, loves beer, and is strict about following the rules. 

This series gives a satirical way of looking at countries and their relationships, it gives reference to many obscure things that happened during the Wars.  This isn't a good series for people who takes things too seriously.

Edit:

Ah I don't watch the anime (I read the manga) but here is a sub version I found at Veoh.  It's only 5 min long, enjoy~

Lol my friend once mentioned this to me but I thought she was just talking about some spoof! I didn't know there was an actual anime for this, but it's really great. (I <3 the "If you come any closer your capital will become Warsaw" jab.) Are the manga/anime released in the US?

*clears throat*

PASSSSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTTAAAA!!

...Okay. I'm good now. (Yes, I enjoy it. But I haven't really read much of the original material. Just been watching the anime.)

Whoa. Scary red message. O____O

...Well I revived this nao and Hetalia is really popular now XD

I'm curious since I've only watched the anime, is the manga better?

[kkslider5552000]

if there's something I've learned from the internet, it's that the manga is always better

even when it clearly isn't

[nomemory]

and by that you mean it isn't?

[kkslider5552000]

I actually don't know.

I just like saying disturbingly accurate things every other post.

Excuse me for being on-topic, but I have to say that Hetalia Axis Powers while being a funny anime and all, it couldn't keep me watching. I dropped it like... 10 times before reaching episode 10. And you can be sure that I'll try to watch it again. And drop it of course.

Japan is also really cute.

But speaking of characters, someone told me that in Hetalia Sweden and Finland are married. Is this true?

I <3 Hetalia. Especially the Chibitalia shorts.

For my favorites..... I absolutely LOVE Russia, England and France, and of course, Italy and Germany.(Those 2 are great together)

I'm only on episode 11 right now. Truthfully, I don't know if I'll be able to finish the series, because Veoh doesn't work for me sometimes,  and on my YT account I said I was sixteen(I'm only 14, though) and when FUNi put the episodes on their website... they were rated TV-MA and I couldn't watch them, even when I logged out.

I just LOVE the ending song too.

Maru Kaite Chikyuu! Awesomeness. ^^ I LOVE China and Chibitalia's versions!!! So kawaiiiii <333

Interesting enough that this series has been licensed by Funi... there will be a massive amount of edits or a ton of controversy.

it should be fun
