I only watched it to pass the time and for cheap laughs. I also know that quite a few of the anime fans here on NS despise this show.
If nothing exists, where did this anger come from?

Well, I actually just started the show, and it's hilarious. :rofl: mostly because it's not how they would act but because it's stereotyped.

As for my favourite character, I would have to say... Canada because he's always taking the full brunt of the blow from other countries because they always think he's America or non-existent. So I sympathise him.

It's crap that panders to teenage girls obsessed with shipping.

Its comedy is ''racism''.

exx mother fucking dee.
we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

It's distastefully amusing and has cute character designs.

My main problem is the fandom. They are a bunch of racist, yaoi-crazed teenagers who might as well spit and stomp on flags.

What do bronies have to do with Hetalia? Portions of their fanbases might be a bit similar in some aspects, but I don't really see why you brought bronies up.

The show is meant to be a comedy, not some social-political preaching about stereotyping. Its just to blow off a little steam and laugh a little

I dislike it and the rabid fandom. I like some of the character art, but it's already seen bland moe style, in the end.

Historical Accurate Hetalia would show Italy being continously beaten up by other characters. In a total non-comedic fashion.
And I am Italian.

This.

It's not a bad show (one of the few anime that I can tolerate... pretty high bar there), but the fans are all teenage-girl yaoi-loving numbskulls.

I've seen it, reluctantly. I'm a big anime fan but I consider Hetalia to be cancer. It can be tolerable in small doses but has a tendency to descend into inanity rather quickly, and of course, also has a tendency to take over cons. Admittedly, I do prefer it over bronies and Homesuck fans at cons though.
