Hetalia Axis Powers - Episode 52

At last, the second season of Hetalia: Axis Powers comes to a close... Just in time for a third series to begin in a couple of weeks or so. Will this thing never end?

This particular instalment begins with another chapter in the relationship between the Holy Roman Empire and Chibitalia (and you thought you'd seen the back of this particular storyline), as the former frolics naked in the water with his dog, but blanches at the thought of being seen naked by Chibitalia on account of the on-going (and perfectly understandable) gender confusion surrounding said representation of country.


Away from that, we get a brief glimpse of America enjoying all things Japanese to an exaggerated degree (as well he might), while Canada is still suffering from being mistaken for America on a regular basis, not least by Cuba, which is probably not the most pleasant experience it's fair to say.

So, that's this season of Hetalia over officially speaking, which means that we'll soon be launching into yet another season of this series. Considering they already seem to have well and truly run out of ideas for this show months ago, I can't even begin to comprehend how they intend on filling up another twenty-six episodes, but I guess we'll begin to find out soon enough. Let's just hope someone provides them with a new barrel of content so that they can stop scraping the bottom of the current one.
