The promo looks promising. It has Kikumaru Eiji as the voice-over and we got a glimpse of smexy Su-san.

Saw this a few days earlier~ My thoughts "BELGIUM! <3 and why do I get excited over her appearance so much?" I just hope we'll get to see her more, she looks like an interesting character (and she is really pretty!) According to youkofujima @ LJ, the opening song will be called "The Rotating Earth" and if I'm not mistaken, Namikawa will be the one singing it?

Have you heard of the Hetalia wank that is happening on fandomsecrets @ LJ?
Apparently, some people feel offended by the way Himaruya portrays their nations and have gone as far as calling Hetalia fans racist. There was also a secret from person from South Africa claiming that s/he hates UK AND all his fans, because real UK has been an ass to his/her country.
Personally, I could rant a little, but I'll shorten it to "these people need to get a life"

The anime was cancelled. It only airs through broadband and cellphones now.

Partly because some people complained that parts of it were offensive and racist . One case in particular is the Korean one saying part of the story "is insulting to Koreans" www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-01-13/korean-protests-call-for-hetalia-anime-cancellationThis isn't the first case in recent memory, I remember a news story before about a cellphone commercial that was taken off the air in Japan because some Africans living in Japan complained that the monkey in the commercial that was standing on a podium in front of a crowd of people was a racist portrayal of Barack Obama although it was just an unintentional coincidence. Now that this anime has got my attention with all its bad publicity I really feel like watching it now XD.
