What You'd Expect

This was the first time Hetalia got a storyline longer than 5 minutes. If you're a fan of the show, it's pretty entertaining and a bit fanservice-y. Though, the plot wasn't anything special and for some reason, random episodes are thrown in throughout the movie as some sort of commercial break.

Not a bad movie, it's what you would expect from a satirical show with episodes no longer than 5 minutes.

A Missed Opportunity

[info-12388 · 3/10 · 6 January 2017]

Anyone who knows much about anime knows about Hetalia, this insanely charming series in which countries are person-fied and portrayed with as much stereotype as possible. It's garnered a huge online presence, woth other folks providing Hetalia versions of their own country... or province... or state.

As such, the idea of a Hetalia movie just seems ideal, but this one was essentially just a mash-up of a rather weak storyline involving aliens, coupled with pieces of animation from the old anime series. The latter gave everything a strange, disjointed feel because the extracts really didt go anywhere with the plot of the film (such as that was). And while it was fun seeing countries outside the core group — like Cuba — they were just walk-ons put in, I gather, for fanboy service.

It's a pity because the original series if so wonderfully whack. Instead it got appended to this rather lame storyline.

Good movie!
