Hetalia Axis Powers - Episode 23

Episode twenty-three of Hetalia: Axis Powers introduces us to yet another new country/character - This time around it's Liechtenstein, a tiny country sandwiched between Austria and Switzerland, and in the context of this particular anime's parlance we see a cute female Liechtenstein both relying on and wanting to be like her big brother Switzerland in every way (yet still looking distressed when she's mistaken for a boy).


Italy hogs the limelight with some throw-away hilarity for the remainder of the episode - First mentioning a disgusting pizza he ate before revealing (quelle surprise) that it was made by England, before sharing a bed with his brother and making a phone call to Germany that could (and in this case was) misconstrued in all the wrong ways. Yes, I have a filthy mind too so it made me chuckle.

Yet again, what we have here is another improved episode of Hetalia, complete with a couple of gags that made me laugh - What more can you ask for in a five minute running time?
