Hetalia Axis Powers, Season One

This is, without a doubt, one of the strangest anime series you will ever see, strangest and, once you surrender to its offbeat charms, one of the most delightful, too. It’s the story of the creation of the Axis Powers at the start of WW II told as a reality show starring cute boys and girls whose knowledge of history is, to say the least, scandalously inappropriate. It’s politically incorrect, borderline offensive and, above all, hilarious.
