* IdolSinger: Much like his World Flags counterpart, Yong-Soo wants to be one, or at least the in-universe version of one. However, there’s a bit of a {{Deconstruction}} of the trope in play in some of his supports, such as his with Yao and Alfred; [[WeightWoe he apparently tries to force himself to eat less (despite fighting, dancing, and singing constantly and as such it being normal to be a bit hungrier than normal, especially at his age)]], is insecure about his appearance, and it’s also shown that while he is naturally cheerful, [[StepfordSmiler he sometimes feels forced to be like that constantly]]. Yao [[AngerBornFromWorry doesn’t take this lightly]].

And he’s actually only somewhat stronger than the other characters you will soon recruit, it’s just that Feli is ''that'' bad a unit initially.

* DemonicSpiders: Archers have gotten their range boosted to a whopping ''five'' spaces. At minimum. While this also means that your archers become fairly useful, they tend to [[GlassCanon be fairly fragile]], and your enemies can have as many as they want; and in a game in which you get only ''one'' flying unit in the form of Corisande, who while more durable than your typical [[FragileSpeedster Pegasus Knight]] isn’t exactly the most durable unit either, this means that multiple archers on a map can become the bane of your existence as you try to keep (the extremely useful) Corisande alive and counter with Matthew as they pick you off from a distance.

She forms an OddFriendship with Vlad over their mutual involvement and experience in the paranormal, and in her supports with Yong-Soo, he seeks her out for these abilities, and after initial [[HormoneAddledTeenager awkwardness]], asks her if his brother is still alive, and if he is dead to speak to his brother and get closure. [[spoiler:It turns out that Natallia can’t find his ghost, so he is indeed still alive somewhere]].

** Simon/士門 (Denmark) is generally a lighthearted, goofy guy. However, he takes his responsibility as the leader of the Northern Guardians (who are ritual brothers) very, very seriously.
** Arthur, when push comes to shove, cares deeply about his family as well. He straight-up says in Alfred’s A support with him that he would willingly take a spear through the heart for any of them.



* BigEater: Alfred. Because of course. In their D support, Francis complains that a whole ''fifth'' of what is served at dinner is just for him, and in Feli’s D support he echoes similar complaints.
** To a lesser extent, Feliks, apparently, despite his slender appearance. Though he’s more appreciative about what goes into a good meal than Al is.

** Berserk staves are back. And they’re as awful as ever. They still have a huge range and can make a unit attack everything in front of them. They don’t appear often, but if you see one [[ThisIsGonnaSuck you know it’s going to hurt]]. Fortunately, Basch can also use them, so it’s also possible to inflict such destruction on your enemies as well.



* DitzyGenius: Feli might be air-headed, but he isn't actually stupid. In-story, he has some moments of brilliance, such as coming up with tactics as a passing thought, and in supports such as his with Kiku, Francis, Ludwig, Herakles, and Ivan, he's shown to be well-read, able to keep up with complex philosophical concepts, not that bad at math (as it helps in painting), and even surprisingly wise. In B and A supports when a character may be speaking about a difficult part of their past, he's also shown to be rather emotionally mature when dealing with them.

* FamilyOfChoice: Yao and Yong-Soo aren’t actually related, but they still treat each other as such; according to their supports, Yao apparently found Yong-Soo as a child, wandering around looking for his actual brother who had disappeared one day without a trace, it having apparently been a year since this happened. Yao decided to be Yong-Soo’s brother instead, and they have been close ever since.

He considers himself basically the SixthRanger of the group, though the other Nordics merely think it’s kind of amusing or stupid. He’s also Tino’s biological brother, and tries to use that as leverage to get himself into the group.

* LethalChef: Unlike his World Flags counterpart but very much like in canon, Arthur/安阿佐 ''cannot'' cook whatsoever. And he’s complstely oblivious to it (pending).

to:

* HormoneAddledTeenager: Yong-Soo is this in his D supports with Iryna and Natallia, completely unable to spit out what he wants to say to them because he’s too distracted by the attractive woman in front of him (he does gather himself enough in the former by telling himself that he’d be dealing with women a lot as an idol... only to see that Matt called Iryna and she left a few minutes ago). [[MoodWhiplash The subsequent conversations turn into some of the most serious ones he has, however]]. (Pending)
** In Feli and Emil’s D support, Feli finds Emil staring at a procession of attractive women passing by. He also straight-up admits point blank that he’s ogling them. Though when Feli, being Feli, tries watching with him and sits uncomfortably close to him, Emil gets annoyed and tries to walk away.
—> '''Emil:''' Here’s a teenage boy. Looking at attractive women. Why ''do'' you think I’m here?
** In her D support with Michelle (Seychelles), Hoang Lien finds said girl staring at the guys undressing. She’s understandably embarrassed by this and tries [[OpenMouthInsertFoot coming up with excuses that get increasingly worse]] before admitting that she just happened by it and couldn’t stop looking. Unfortunately for both of them, [[MythologyGag Corisande’s condor notices them]] [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening and starts chasing them around as the girls scream in horror]]. (Pending)

* LethalChef: Unlike his World Flags counterpart but very much like in canon, Arthur/安阿佐 ''cannot'' cook whatsoever. And he’s complstely oblivious to it (pending). Though to Kiku’s relief, Corisande’s condor apparently likes Arthur’s cooking ([[DamnedByFaintPraise though it really doesn’t take much to please an actual vulture]]) so the food doesn’t completely go to waste whenever Arthur is... “experimenting” again.



* NotBloodSiblings: Averted. Berwald and Tino are basically stepbrothers in this canon, as when someone becomes part of the Northern Guardians they’re considered ritual family, but their relationship doesn’t carry over from canon and is strictly platonic in-universe.
* NoSenseOfHumor: Ludwig, as in canon. His supports from D to B with Vlad are basically Vlad trying to make Ludwig laugh with no success. Until Vlad accidentally steps on a makeshift whoopee cushion Tino left lying around... and Ludwig actually snickers a bit. He immediately denies it, but indeed, it appears that Ludwig’s sense of humor exists, it’s just surprisingly immature.



* ShipSinking: The furthest Feli and Ludwig, as well as Berwald and Tino's, interactions go is platonic. The Holy Rome backstory isn’t even adapted in this canon, as confirmed by Ludwig saying that while he knew Feli since childhood, he never really got to know him. As mentioned, the game has a semi-NoHuggingNoKissing policy, and the only pairings that exist in the game at all are Jana (Czechia) x Andil (Slovakia), Tolys having one-sided feelings towards Natallia, and maaaaayyybbbe Roderich x Erzsebet, so this pretty much happens to all other ships by virtue of the writing. Kiku and Herakles's relationship also isn't shown to be as close as it is in canon (in fact Herakles seems way closer to Feli), though they're still casual friends, so there's especially a lot less base for Giripan shippers to stand on.

** Herakles and [[spoiler:Serije]]. This one does actually slightly touch on the real world issues between them, but the latter’s, well... [[{{Chuunibyo}} teenageness]] is way more emphasized in this canon, and combined with how Herakles somehow comes across as a stubborn GrumpyOldMan despite his age in their interactions it’s made way more comical an tone.
* SpoonyBard: Yong-Soo is the Dancer of this game; also, try to make sure he doesn't die, because he's the only one you're getting. Though much like dancers post-Awakening, he can indeed attack, and combined with Yao he can unleash some powerful {{Limit Break}}s.

[[spoiler:The East Slav siblings all have a really messed-up past, but apparently it affected Ivan the most, so this is his way of coping with it. He has a lot in common with [[FireEmblemAwakening Henry]]; talking blissfully about how the staff of the orphanage he and his sisters were living in abused him horrifically, how he almost froze to death after Iryna took them and ran (pending)... while most others balk in horror at this, it’s made more clear how much this affected him in his supports with Iryna, Francis, and Feli, Natallia is well aware of it, and Basch is able to sense it from him]].

** Yong-Soo to a lesser extent; mainly in his B support with Yao, but also mentioned or implied in others, he states that as part of the whole IdolSinger thing he at times feels pressured to stay cheerful constantly, even if others find it a bit annoying. He’s a bit more willing to be completely honest around Yao, but can open up about it to some of his other support partners, and in his very serious supports such as his with Natallia from B onwards (mainly when it involves his missing brother) the facade eventually drops.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: While not to the extent of Alt-talia and most of the cast is kept pretty close to canon, there are still small changes to some, most often the injection of things mentioned in the World Flags profiles that the writer particularly liked (e.g. Tino finding that he likes pranking the other Nordics), or elements from Alt-talia/real life if innocuous enough and it doesn’t completely contradict pre-existing characterization (e.g. Feliks apparently getting into a BarBrawl and calling it “fun”, Ludwig and Francis being fairly close). Others are more expansions of characters that barely had any originally (e.g. India and Cameroon). However, Yong-Soo is changed a bit more than most. The writer basically mainly went off of him being a {{Keet}}, and didn’t really pay attention to the rest. It also probably helps that Yao and to a somewhat lesser extent Kiku actually appreciates his presence in this canon. This interpretation is probably more accurate for a vision of how Korea might act in more modern strips, as the more extreme gags have been toned down in modern strips. The groping RunningGag is referenced as an embarrassing thing he did as a child though.

* AdaptationalSexuality: Sort of. [=WannabeHistorian=] has admitted that as much as she is pro-LGBT rights, she doesn't like writing slash or hinting at it. However, unlike Alt-talia, where characters can be shown as {{Heteronormative Crusader}}s, the same solution of "simply never shown to be bi or gay" she uses for the non-homophobic countries is used. This has been stated as part of the motivation for the soft NoHuggingNoKissing rule. As a result, Feli and Ludwig's interactions are largely platonic (and in fact a bit less close than in canon) and neither shows any signs of their feelings going beyond that, along with the fact that the Holy Rome backstory wasn't even adapted as shown with Feli saying that while he knew Ludwig since childhood, he really never got to know him, [[ChivalrousPervert Francis]] flirts only with the female characters, and Berwald and Tino are technically step-brothers and have only platonic interactions. It should also be noted that when [[{{Troll}} Feliks]] [[MythologyGag dresses up as a geisha woman]] and hits on [[MythologyGag Jose]], and when Feli mistakes [[DudeLooksLikeALady Yao]] for a woman in their respective D supports, the one who made the mistake is either awkwardly silent for a few seconds before quietly dropping the topic as Feliks laughs hysterically, notable as when he mistook China for a woman in Alt-talia he treats it as a [[UnsettlingGenderReveal horrible thing]] which he frantically prays to God to forgive him for (Jose), or apologizing frantically, his words implying more that he's sorry that he made a mistake than being disgusted by the fact he flirted with a man (Feli). The writer doesn't try to draw much attention to it and doesn't explicitly say the characters in this canon are straight either, it just isn't addressed, so technically it's still entirely possible that EveryoneIsBi in this canon as well.

* ShipSinking: The furthest Feli and Ludwig, as well as Berwald and Tino's, interactions go is platonic, the latter even kind of brotherly. As mentioned, the game has a semi-NoHuggingNoKissing policy, and the only pairings that exist in the game at all are Jana (Czechia) x Andil (Slovakia), Tolys having one-sided feelings towards Natallia, and maaaaayyybbbe Roderich x Erzsebet, so this pretty much happens to all other ships by virtue of the writing. Kiku and Herakles's relationship also isn't shown to be as close as it is in canon (in fact Herakles seems way closer to Feli), though they're still casual friends, so there's especially a lot less base for Giripan shippers to stand on.

It should also be noted that when [[{{Troll}} Feliks]] [[MythologyGag dresses up as a geisha woman]] and hits on [[MythologyGag Jose]], and when Feli mistakes [[DudeLooksLikeALady Yao]] for a woman in their respective D supports, the one who made the mistake is either awkwardly silent for a few seconds before quietly dropping the topic as Feliks laughs hysterically, notable as when he mistook China for a woman in Alt-talia it was treated as a [[UnsettlingGenderReveal horrible thing]] which he frantically prays to God to forgive him for (Jose), or apologizing frantically, his words implying more that he's sorry that he made a mistake than being disgusted by the fact he flirted with a man (Feli).

* AdaptationalBadass: In canon, Italy’s strength had apparently devolved over the years. However, in this game Feliciano proves to be a good unit in his own right when he finally starts racking the stat boosts, and by late game he’s more than a decent unit in his own right.

** Roderich as well. He is pretty average as a unit, but in canon he was a pretty bad wimp in terms of strength who relied on the rest of his empire (mainly Hungary). His character timeline is even sort of an inversion of canon; in canon he often got himself into fights which Switzerland needed to rescue him from, but in his supports with Basch, it’s stated that Roderich in this canon used to be rather frail and weak, but now is much less reluctant about fighting if it’s necessary, but will still rely on Basch to save him if the going gets rough.

* ApologeticAttacker: Feliciano, Kiku, and Matthew have a critical quote like this in their set of four.



* BilingualBonus: In the English version, if the kanji option is turned off, kanji names merely seem like a mildly interesting detail. However, before characters are introduced, e.g. before their recruitment chapter, there will often be a few lines of dialogue from these newbies, their portrait not being shown. But instead of the standard “???” used to obscure names in the official FE games, their kanji names are used. If their speech patterns, which are much more toned down here, don’t give them away, someone who knows Japanese may still be able to guess who is who. In the kanji and Japanese. version however, the question marks are used.

Added DiffLines:

* PreMortemOneLiner: Just like in the main Fire Emblem series post-Awakening, everyone has one of these to say before landing a critical hit or skill, as well as unique ones when activating a combination LimitBreak. While they don’t necessarily mean OneHitKill (especially if used on a major boss at full health), they usually do. Feliciano’s quotes also have the distinction of evolving as the game goes on.

Feliciano especially starts out as a borderline JokeCharacter with his only even decent stat being Defence and to an extent Luck which Kiku has to basically babysit, but unlike in canon by the end of the game he becomes a potent LightningBruiser.

* AerithAndBob: In a sense. All the characters have their human names written in kanji. The East Asian characters of course have the most natural-looking names (Kiku 菊 (obviously), Yao 耀, Yong-Soo 勇洙, Huang Lien 香蓮), albeit it gives their names very nonstandard pronunciations in Japanese; the other names can range from rather plausible (Matthew 真朱, Ivan 伊幡, Natallia 奈田莉愛, Basch 芭珠) to... not so much (Erzsebet 英留尓衛部斗, Feliks 歩栄列句守).
* ArmorPiercingAttack: The Luna skill works much like it does in FE, ignoring defense and resistance. On paper, it’s a skill exclusive to those with a moon in their flag, but in practice, due to how Eurocentric the Hetalia cast tends to be, it’s basically a Sadik-exclusive skill.



* {{BFS}}: Vlad (Romania) carries a massive cross-shaped one. It predictably deals quite an amount of damage.
** [[spoiler:The Olympian DLC gives Alfred an absolute monster of a BFS, representing the USA being the all-time best performing in the weightlifting category. It deals the most damage out of any weapon, though it takes a big chunk out of his Speed.]]



** Basch towards Erika (Liechtenstein), of course. However, Basch is a [[WhiteMage cleric]]. Their supports deal with Erika telling Basch/芭朱 to leave the fighting to her and Basch coming to terms with the fact that she's gotten older and can fight on the frontlines as long as he's there to catch her.

* ChivalrousPervert: Francis/符蘭志洲. While he may be a flirt, in fact beginning every set of support conversations with female characters with flirting, but unlike many fanon deptictions (especially in the Japanese fandom) he values consent deeply, and if someone is clearly uncomfortable he doesn't press furter. He tells Tolys in their A support that what matters the most in a relationship is mutuality, and that while he shouldn't give up, if Natallia doesn't feel anything for him he should respect her wishes.

* CombatMedic: Matthew can use two types of arrows, as arrows are treated as items in this game instead of bows; one is the standard damage-dealing arrow, the other can heal. No, really. Though to compensate for being able to heal at a distance he’s also terribly squishy.

* GreenThumb: As his World Flags counterpart attacks with long MagicHair that he obviously doesn’t have, Herakles attacks with magic olive branch-like vines that he can control freely and even remotely sprout from the ground.



* LimitBreak: A new mechanic for this game. Once certain requirements are met, characters can collectively unleash an attack like this, activated in a similar manner as a Triangle Attack, with the ones requiring more characters obviously needing way more charging to unleash and having way more power (e.g. Nordic Cross).

Kiku and Herakles's relationship also isn't shown to be as close as it is in canon (in fact Herakles seems way closer to Feli), though they're still casual friends, so there's a lot less base for Giripan shippers to stand on either.

Together, they set out to build an army and stop the force threatening their peaceful world.

The game (if "canon" route) features only the canon Hetalia cast with some guest stars. It plays much like a typical ''Fire Emblem'' game, except that characters aren't grouped into classes and more big macro-classes, and that if requirements are met, characters can unleash flashy combination {{Limit Break}} moves, some more than others. There are also minor pre-set support bonus-like boosts applied to certain characters if they are Paired Up with or have alongside them a character they already have some kind of bond with pre-story. It also has has giant maps to compensate for the fact that at the end there is a grand total of ''8'' Lords (as well as other characters who absolutely cannot die for story reasons). Due to them being based off of their World Flags designs, sadly Manaketes and beast-shifters are not playable in this game. The game also has a semi-NoHuggingNoKissing policy, a rarity for Fire Emblem and Hetalia, and focuses on platonic relationships with no supports going above A, though to compensate the game also provides D supports.

!!Tropes Found in ''Hetalia Emblem'' include:
* AscendedExtra: The Sacred Nordic Guardians/Nordic Five, probably due to how much World Flags promoted their counterparts of them, were merely side characters in canon, but they're given a lot more prominence in this game.
** Herakles. Greece was a minor character in Hetalia, but here he's actually somewhat important to the plot.
** Yong-Soo is given a lot more supports and actually a bit more screentime in cutscenes outside of his introduction for a character who barely shows up in the comics anymore, due to his connection to Yao, though there are more scenes featuring Yao.
* BigBrotherInstinct: They might not be blood related, but don't you dare try to hurt Yong-Soo in front of Yao. Just don't. You WILL regret it.

* DemotedToExtra: Those who don't have a country in modern day are NPCs out of necessity, most prominently Prussia/Gilbert and Romano/Lavino. The former does play a bit more of an active role in the story, however.
* TheLoad: Feliciano in some supports shows that he thinks of himself as this at times.
* DrillSergeantNasty: Ludwig, though to somewhat of a lesser extent than in canon. Apparently this is due to Gilbert's influence.
* EmpathyPet: Piłka (ピィルカ)is basically half this to Poland, half living Webcomic/{{Polandball}} reference, uttering the odd "kurwa!" every now and then and using Polandball terms, e.g., referring to Sadik as "kebab".
* TheHero: Probably Kiku, though it's debatable which is the protagonist and which one is the deuteragonist out of him and Feli.
* LimitBreak: A new mechanic for this game. Once certain requirements are met, characters can collectively unleash an attack like this, activated in a similar manner as a Triangle Attack, with the ones requiring more characters obviously needing way more charging to unleash and having way more power (e.g. Nordic Cross).
* MagikarpPower: Erika, Aurel (Moldova), and even Feliciano himself are really good examples of this trope. Feliciano especially starts out as a borderline JokeCharacter with his only good stat being Defence and to an extent Luck which Kiku has to basically babysit, but unlike in canon by the end of the game he becomes a potent LightningBruiser.
* RetiredBadass: While younger than most examples (though still a bit more aged than his canon counterpart, with his age given as 29, coincidentally around the same physical age he was in ''Alt-talia'' when raising Germany), Gilbert used to be a fierce fighter before the events of the story, until he badly injured his leg. He apparently often laments how he can't fight anymore.
* SitcomArchNemesis: Arthur and Francis are still at it. And both of them being lance users, they constantly try to one-up each other on who's the better lance user of the Hachi No Dan.
** Same for Herakles and Sadik; the latter apparently likes to pass by his shrine just to bicker with him.
* SquishyWizard: Huang Lien (Vietnam). Oh yeah, [[spoiler:without the Maria (Philippines) DLC]], she's the only fire mage in the entire game. Good luck, because you'll need her.
* StoneWall: Jose (Portugal), though he can deal a bit more damage than the usual example. Oh, and he's the only one. In the entire game. Keep him, because you'll need him.
* VagueAge: Even Yong-Soo and Kiku apparently don't know Yao's actual age, and Yao doesn't tell them either, so Yong just uses the day Yao took him in as his de facto birthday. [[spoiler:It's later revealed that Yao is indeed probably as old as his canon counterpart, as he's part [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Manakete]], though unfortunately he's unable to transform (pending)]].
