{{quote|''"This story will not have a happy ending, love. I just can't see it on the horizon, and anything that I can't see isn't there."''|Summary for Yellow's Arc}}

 

 

A short summarization: In a somewhat altered universe, all seems peaceful until a nation-killer rises, shocking all the countries of the world into a paranoid hysteria. [[You Meddling Kids|Italy, Germany and Japan]] team up to solve the case, while America hides some shady secrets about his home life with his boss and brother, China is forced to face a destructive force beyond his denial, and England and Japan attempt to keep their fellow countries sane despite their own inner demons. Nevertheless, as the world begins to crumble around them, it may prove difficult for the nations to keep both their lives and reason as [[Big Bad|faceless villain Black]] and his devoted seven followers start the process of the world’s end.

'''WARNING''': Since the story does revolve around murder and mystery, '''spoilers''' run rampid here.

 

* [[Abusive Parents|Abusive]] <s>Parents</s> [[Abusive Parents|Boss]]: America’s boss. {{spoiler|At least, that's what we're supposed to think originally. In retrospect, he ''was'' the only one who could control America. In retrospect retrospect, I still can't believe that America let him get away with it for Canada. (Not mindfucking enough for you? It could be worse. No, seriously. America and Canada swap places at least 5 times already, still counting. Without reading Blue's eye-opener arc, go back and try to figure out which one was which one. It's IMPOSSIBLE.)}}.

* [[Adaptational Badass]]: {{spoiler|Canada. Apparently, he's just as strong as America.}}

* [[Anyone Can Die]]: Holy ''god''. NO KIDDING. Switzerland dies in the first chapter, and things get much, much worse. Fast.

* [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: Even though Japan clearly states his desire to kill {{spoiler|America}} after he and the other killers had completely ruined his family, {{spoiler|they get back together after America reveals the truth behind who Blue really is and chooses to save Japan over his own brother. Even while America claims that he was the true killer and Canada was merely his puppet, Japan keeps loving him and sees him as the victim.}}

* [[Unwanted Spouse]]: China’s rather reluctant merge with Russia starts as this, as he only agrees for the sake of the betterment of his people. It’s only until Russia tries to kill China for standing up for Lithuania that they actually start getting along, and eventually fall in love.
