Hetalia: Axis Powers

The show is really good/sigma this show helped me out in rough times whenever I was upset by making me laugh,smile, and learn something when just watching it. The show is pretty goofy but in a good way. I don't really mind the stereotypes because for me I just think that's what make the characters the characters I would never believe in these stereotype in real life though!(Sorry if that sounds a bit rude) But really awesome show the episodes are short and a bit out of order in a way but that's okay I guess. If you ever wanna feel happy watch hetalia because this show never fails to make me smile.

I think if I was the writer/producer and be able to do this out again, I definately would for the English dub to hire voice actors that are actually from where the characters that they are playing as. I'm sure there would've been lots of Japanese, German, Cuban, Austrian, Italian, Chinese, French,etc voice actors all could've done a better natural job then an all American cast. Don't get me wrong, I thought the English voice actors were good on this but I think getting a diverse range of international voice actors who can speak the English language would do a brilliant job!

The only good thing about the anime was animation like it was really gorgeous and some of the humour I suppose was good to have a bit of laugh at! Although I would call this a pretty much forgettable anime since people could be put off with the fake accents and the stereotypical behaviours towards each countries. Then again, people are different so who am I to judge on what anime they like?

6/10 I'm giving this anime I'm afraid...

This series of short episodes where each character represents a country and national stereotypes are to the fore could easily have caused offence but for the most part managed to avoid that by making all of the characters likable; although it might seem that way to me because the worst thing said about my country was that it can't cook! Most early episodes follow poor cowardly Italy as he tries to befriend Germany, they are later joined by Japan. Meanwhile another group of countries, including America, England, France, China, Russia and Canada are getting together to fight against them; this gives Italy plenty of opportunity it wave his white flag. While most of the stories take part in this time period we also see Italy's childhood with his friend Holy Rome, England finding a young America and even an appearance by poor unrecognised Sealand.

After the first episode I didn't think I'd bother with the rest but after a few months returned to the series and watched the second episode which got me hooked. Some times the change in times can be a little confusing but there are usually historical notes explaining if a new story line is beginning. With a few minor exceptions all the countries are male and while there is nothing overtly sexual going on between them viewers could be excused for thinking their friendships could have gone that way. While I wouldn't recommend using this as a way of learning history it does mention events and countries that might inspire viewers to learn more about the real countries and events. Given how short the episodes are I'd certainly recommend checking out a few to see if you like it; especially as it can currently be viewed legally on Funimation's YouTube Channel along with the next series which is known as 'Hetalia World Series'.

It contains a rude--*Extreme edit here* Okay. I didn't even watch an episode in 2012. Now, in 2013 to 2014, I did watch some episodes, I know many things about the show and the manga. I'd have to admit it; It's sometimes funny, but the humor is sometimes a bit offensive. Not recommended for the easily offended.

Plot: That's the main problem, it has no plot at all.Like Lucky Star. But it still remains funny, with it's jokes and humoristic atmosphere (But it has it's serious moments). It's also a bit educational, but it's mostly played for laughs.

Characters: The characters are mostly likable. Some are likable, some are not. You will hate them if you're offended by foul stereotypes.

Overall, it's decent.

6/10
