you know parents make such a big deal about explaining homosexuality to their children but when I was a kid I watched a show where one of the villains was a satanic cross-dressing lobster and never once questioned it

What I love the most about the “France and soldier” comic

In a webcomic that’s meant to be a lighthearted comedy, rarely do some of the darker aspects of the concept of personified nations arise in Himaruya’s work. In fact, it’s rarely even directly addressed.

This particular comic strip is a noted exception. It points out what’s constantly implied throughout the comic - that nations can’t live ordinary lives. Gifted with the ability to feel human emotion and form bonds, yet subjected to nearly eternal life as the embodiment of a country. That would make them very lonely people, if you think about it. Besides the other nations, whom else could they really bond with knowing that they’ll always outlive the human friends and bosses they get to know? That’s dozens of generations they have to see come and go. That is a painful concept to think about. Simply knowing they’ll never be normal…

In Hetalia, what always fascinates me is how the sadder issues are rarely ever seen directly in the comic. Often, they are hinted between comic continuity and just knowing what happens in history. But this comic not only hits you in the head with one, it’s a very canon thing, and I’m glad Himaruya addressed it at least once. It adds so much depth to Hetalia on the whole.

Himaruya is probably looking back on the Beautiful World animations and probably smiling really big to himself. Seeing his art, his vision come to life, and loving every aspect of it.
