Hetalia Axis Powers

There is pretty much a million ways to describe Hetalia Axis Powers, but I'll describe it in one. In APH, Himaruya Hidekaz takes your world history class and all its boring textbooks, puts it in a pot, and cooks it into a dish a comedy that'll keep your laughing your head off all day. Hetalia takes your favorite (and least favorite!) countries and transforms them into people stereotyped to the max. There are many countries featured in Hetalia, but the main characters are the Axis (Germany, Italy, and Japan), and the Allies (America, England, France, Russia, and China).

Wikipedia wrote:The main historical events portrayed in this work occur between World War I and World War II. The series often uses satire and comedy to address well-known historical events as well as historical and cultural trivia. Historical, political, and military interaction between countries is allegorically represented in Hetalia as social and romantic interaction between the characters; the webcomic version in particular depicts military and economic incursions using various innuendo.

As you probably know, most English dubs of anime aren't great, but Hetalia is one of those few exceptions. The dub is AWESOME!!! Funimation did an amazing job. The dub added one thing that the Japanese version was missing- crazy accents. Many of the voices match the characters perfectly! *drools over England's British accent*

Anybody pervy, comedy-loving, anime-loving or history-loving will really enjoy this show- you can trust me on that.

To sum up Hetalia in one word- awesome.


Everyone needs to watch it. If you don't watch it, Russia will come into your room and kill you

Looks like something I'll look into. =3

I've seen some of that show and it looks really good. Now all I have to do is convince my global history teacher to ditch the books and show this instead.

I can explain this anime in 2 words utter bollocks =p just my opinion on it watched series one was funny in parts but just not enough plot to flesh out any of the characters in a decent way even for a comedy so this gets a 3/10 in my books imo

*gasp* you're the first person that I've encountered that dislikes Hetalia >.>

Really? XD me and my friends can't stand it and thats around 15 of us XD I mean I can see why people like it there just isn't enough in there to keep me hooked I need character development or else I couldn't care less about the characters in the anime but that's just my take I need a story to keep me involved but hey I'm just one guy

Well it was a web comic and was meant for comedy rather than an actual story story xD Most american cartoons are kinda like that... ex: sponegbob. And spongebob is awesome xD *is watching right now*

Wow just watched the 1st part and now I think I might be hooked on it @_@

Love hetaila.
