Axis Powers Hetalia/Characters/Justice Destiny Strike Freedom: Difference between revisions

* [[Boisterous Bruiser]]: America is ''very'' eager and happy to fight the Axis Powers.

* [[Captain Obvious]]: "It's not working!"

* [[Chronic Hero Syndrome]]: He always feels the need to be the hero in ''every'' situation.

* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: [http://himaruya.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-936.html We could call it a] [[Incredibly Lame Pun|nuclear F bomb!]]

'''America:''' Mm, that's actually a very good question, Russia! [[Designated Hero|I'll be the hero, of course!]] }}

* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: As a child, he loved playing with bunnies. As an adult, he befriends whales and even ''aliens'' (hi, Tony). Ironically, this doesn't mean that he cares one bit about global warming, though.

*** He's probably more interested in the giant robot aspect... (see his birthday strip)

** Recently taken to even more extreme levels with him being friends with the unicorn England gave him for his bicentennial, even though he still can't see it.

** The Great Depression is too big for any mere metaphor. [http://community.livejournal.com/hetalia/95663.html Here it is.]

* [[Instant Waking Skills]]: In the drama CD, he goes from being half-awake to on his feet rushing to get ready for work when he sees he's going to be late (thankfully for him Lithuania readied everything for him).

** To be more specific, the gun was meant to make enemy soldiers fall in love with each other. If you thought it was just a joke, [[wikipedia:Gay bomb|the joke's on you]].

* [[Justice Will Prevail]]: He says things such as "Should we not fight in the name of justice?" and "I support you in the name of justice!".

{{hardline}}

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Alternatively appears with dark or light blond hair in the manga, but it became a saturated yellow-blond shade for the anime.

* [[All Love Is Unrequited]]: He apparently has a crush on America. The most obvious hint is the Valentine's strip where England gives America some chocolates while blushing and being all embarrassed. America [[Master of the Mixed Message|giving mixed signals]] (mocking England in one moment, claiming to be hurt because England didn't give him Valentine's chocolates in the next) [[Will They or Won't They?|doesn't exactly help matters]], and neither does the fact that they're both [[Tsundere]] and ''heavy'' on the ''tsun''.

** In Japanese fanworks he's usually called by his "real name", England (''ingurando'') by his older brothers, and sometimes by other countries as well before the 18th century.

* [[Cool Chair]]: He once tries to get back at America by tricking him into sitting on "Yorkshire's Infamous 'Sit and You Die' Busby Stoop Chair". Russia gets to it first and manages to out-evil it, causing it to explode.

** France even asserts that this is the case, telling him that he's giving his title of the "Erotic Ambassador" to him.

* [[Cry Cute]]: "Cleaning Up The Storage". [[Tear Jerker|That's all]].

** [[Memetic Mutation|Shoops are obviously in the making.]] [http://mizumimi.livejournal.com/19602.html Same goes to icons.]

* [[Doting Parent|Doting Older Brother]]: Towards little America, at any rate. He's not nearly as close to Canada (whom he occasionally mistakes for America), let alone [[Annoying Younger Sibling|Sealand]].

* [[Drowning My Sorrows]]: Apparently when he gets ''really'' drunk he tends to go on about that ungrateful whelp America [[Love Hurts|leaving him]].

* [[Dying Declaration of Love]]: During the 'England is about to die' strips, he tells America that despite their bickering he doesn't actually hate him and seems to try to say something else until Death smothered him. [[Back From the Dead|He gets better, of course.]] The dub version of this scene actually has England say "America, I'm in lo--" before he was offed.

* [[Expository Hairstyle Change]]: Parodied when a young England fails to pull one and France tricks him into fixing it... cutting it back to its original length.

* [[Former Teen Rebel]]: Although he is now a (self-styled) gentleman, he used to be a delinquent.

* [[Gentleman Wizard]]: used magic in the series a couple of times. He's also shown interacting with magical creatures.

** More like an [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFOfTd1resQ&feature=related Absolutely Invincible British Gentleman].

* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: He loves sewing and embroidering.

* [[Shirtless Scene]]: Had one in the Japanese Folklore episode (episode 30), taking his clothes off to [[Hot Springs Episode|take a hot bath]]. In the anime it was [[Fan Service|more ''sexy,'' and he was almost naked]].

* [[Sitcom Arch Nemesis]]: With France.

* [[The Big Guy]]: Inverts the third; Despite his size, looks nice and cute... and is [[Psychopathic Manchild|every]][[Cute and Psycho|thing]] [[Token Evil Teammate|mentioned]] [[Stepford Smiler|below]].

* [[Biggus Dickus]]: Implied in one episode where he sends America a box of 25 cm condoms, which are considered "extra small" (for those who know nothing of the metric system, 25 cm is between ''9 to 10 inches'').

* [[Character Development]]: The reason for many fanfic writers to be at odds with his characterization. [[Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment|Let's just say]] that Russia is at his worst during the [[Soviet Russia Ukraine and So On|Soviet Era]] strips and at his best in the [[The New Russia|modern day]] ones (though he still has his moments).

* [[Comedic Sociopathy]]: His insanity is (almost) always played for laughs.

** [[Big Beautiful Man]]: What many fangirls see him as. In fact, if fanartists draw him ''without'' chub, it's almost a sure thing that they'll get told "he's too ''skinny'', damn it!"

** [http://fyeahdoujin.tumblr.com/post/4515625186/hetalia-april-fools-2011 From the April Fools 2011 Bloodbath], we can see he's actually pretty muscular. (About halfway down the web page [[It Makes Sense in Context|he comes out from the manhole-err, sewer opening]])

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfE1qy1K1kM&feature=related Though wild hamsters tend to be vicious...]

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: His lead-pipe faucet-crowbar thing. His [[Gender Flip|gender flipped]] self uses a shovel instead.

* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Yep, he abuses his subordinates like you wouldn't believe and it's seen as comedy. But the moment you learn ''[[Freak-Out|why]]'' [[Despair Event Horizon|he's so fucked up]], you can't help but want to hug him.

** [http://aph.starry-sky.com/rrt.html His dream is to live in a nice warm place surrounded by sunflowers.] You can't ''help'' but want to hug him despite his insanity.

* [[Madness Mantra]]: His "kolkolkolkol" chant, referring to the "Kolkhoz".

** Moving into [[Epileptic Trees]] territory, it might also be [[Genius Bonus|a reference]] to a popular [[Bilingual Bonus|Russian riddle]]: turn the nonsensical word ''kolokolokolokola'' into a meaningful Russian phrase by inserting just two spaces. Since the riddle is unknown outside the Russian-speaking countries it is most likely just a coincidence (if anyone is interested, the correct answer is {{spoiler|''kol okolo kolokola'', "a stake next to a bell"}}).

* [[Tears of Fear]]: He can only sob and make futile cries of "Go home!" when [[Mad Love|Belarus literally tears down his door]] [[Brother-Sister Incest|to demand that they get married]].

* [[Token Evil Teammate]]: Well, it depends on your definition of ''evil'', but...

* [[Vodka Drunkenski]]: "My favorite food would be pierogi and...vodka? It's my fuel, you see."

* [[What Could Have Been]]: According to volume 3, at first he had dark hair, was middle-aged, and a crybaby who completely changed when he drank alcohol.

* [[Depraved Bisexual]]

* [[The Determinator]]: "Like... like Hell I'll die here!" Followed by a [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|Roaring Rampage of Nudity]].

** "I found Prague!"

* [[Everyone Looks Sexier If French]]: To the point where it is lampshaded in this [http://community.livejournal.com/hetalia/902567.html#cutid1 comic]

* [[Nice Guy]]

* [[Only Sane Man]]: He reaches this some of the time and can act like the voice of reason for the Allies, usually when England proves that he's [[Not So Above It All]] and [[Not So Different]].

* [[Parental Substitute]]: He's an [[Big Brother Mentor|older brother figure]] to the East Asian nation-tans, rather than adoptive father.

* [[Picky Eater]]: Inverted. China's [[Trademark Favorite Food]] is ''variety''; considering the different types of Chinese cuisine, this can be seen as [[Truth in Television]].
