It's so funny how many people don't know Hetalia is still ongoing and getting merch and talk about it like it's a thing sealed in the past, like bestie I hate to break it to you but
plus one more image of America!

I apologize for worrying you all during my long absence. Thank you for all the messages while I was away. I have big news to share with you all. My news series "Taisho Romance Mr. Demon Stopppp!!" will be serialized in Jump SQ from August 3rd. There are parts that aren't yet perfect but I'd make me happy if you enjoy it as well! Let's enjoy Hetalia and Mr. Demon together! [Under the Cut] I'm sorry for worrying everyone for such a long time. Also, thank you everyone... >What is the animal in the drawing for your new serialization? A dog? C-Cat... >China has too few appearances!! Can I request you increase his appearances? >When America laughs it says, "DDDDDDD," how are you supposed to pronounce that!? ([@]ω[@])DDDDDD >I'm so excited volume 6 is being released! Thank you very much! During the hand over, some things got lost but an old manuscript appeared and it's being compiled right now. The Drama CDs that come with Hetalia volumes are always long, and this time it's also long. This time characters that haven't been in lots of CDs will also appear. Please wait a little longer for new Hetalia. >Has anything changed recently? New lines have appeared on my palm! Also when thinking about Italian characters it usually ends up like this... [Omake] The rejected cover look for America. The balance of his face and mouth are a bit off in this version. The Italy cover for this time wasn't supposed to be beat by Louise-san... (EDIT: since i’ve noticed this post is still getting likes and some reblogs, please note this is an old post from 2013. it is not recent!)
The prince admires the work that a brilliant young artist has done to draw our attention to the lighter side of international affairs in Axis Powers Hetalia. As a result of his work in manga a generation is growing up around the world having a greater awareness of the historical relationships between countries.This lucky generation should have a readymade tolerance for cultural difference, vital for peace in the world. Equerry, Hooray for hetalia! - Prince Paul of Wy about Hidekaz Himaruya.
Hima is back
I apologize for the long wait. I’m terribly sorry for the long wait and that I made you all worry so much. I’m slowly finishing most of my work load and things should go back to their usual schedule around August. Thank you for all the encouraging mails, interesting information and cute pictures I received from you during my absence! They really cheered me up. I hope you will all enjoy the new volume 5!
