Part of an annual Hetalia holiday tradition, the Hetalia Bloodbath 2011 is just beginning, and Germany, Italy and Japan are our hosts, filling your requests and keeping everything calm and collected. Hilarity still manages to ensue. However, a few things are stirring this Christmas night: France is unsatisfied with the way the Axis are handling it, Romania and Hungary may or may not be up to something, and someone is haunting Finland with an ominous monologue...You can read the scanlations here.For the 2010 Bloodbath, click here.Also has its own Memetic Mutation page.Information about the Hetalia Fandomly here.Now comes with it's own Steve Wars.
This event shows examples of the following tropes
A-Cup Angst: It Seems like Taiwan might have this. She seemed to be a bit intimidated by the breast size of the other female western nations.
Adorkable: Little Ladonia introduces himself with his favourite Pokémon. D'awwww!
All Just a Dream: China and India fighting about Russia, which turns out to be Lithuania's dream.
Iceland dreams of a half-naked Santa Turkey and Belgium dreams that Luxembourg is a young boy with expensive tastes (while the real Luxembourg is hiding behind a door).
Badass Adorable: Ladonia, who somehow manages to pin Sweden to the floor. Admittedly, it's very likely Sweden is acting...
Beware the Silly Ones: France is surprisingly adamant about a violently bloody bloodbath. Apparently it's a time-honored tradition.
Buffy Speak: "Red thing... this hat... this beard... These clothes..."
Culture Clash: Bulgaria nods for "no" and shakes his head for "yes" — he's been trying to break the habit, but it hasn't been working. Truth in Television; except for the younger generation, this is pretty much the norm in Bulgaria.
Foreign Exchange Student: THE DAY OF THE COMMSEPTION. CAPTALIA and the Event Comm doing an "exchange program" with each other!
Foreshadowing: Someone is reciting ominous monologues and pretending to be Finland. Finland isn't happy with this.
Thailand is shown wearing a bunny t-shirt. In another strip, a bunny head is seen on the blackboard. Then, a mysterious person shows up in a bunny suit...
Gentle Giant: Sweden. While this isn't confined to the event, we yet again see evidence of his 'Gentle Giant' tendencies in his interaction with Ladonia. He pretends to be scared of the pint sized micro-nation and lets Ladonia tackle him.
"A peaceful, gentle, and tranquil Christmas without a morsel of violence?! They turned our carefully cultivated tradition into nothing!"
Left the Background Music On: Himapapa has placed the occasional music button on a page that plays festive music when clicked. Some have played it over and over and much spazzing was done.
Then, there's Disco Pogo, the default event theme song, on InfiniteLooper.
A variation happens when viewers on Livestream get caught up in their roleplaying; it gets to the point where nobody is watching the movie except to randomly stop things and listen to the current Disney song, which everyone proceeds to discuss.
A magnitude of 7.0 hit Japan during the CST (Central Standard Time) New Years countdown and right before the designated time Himaruya said he would update. Thankfully, there are no reports of injuries, damages, or deaths so far. A few Japanese people on Twitter complained that it happened while they were in the bathroom or preparing for New Year's celebrations.
This strip◊ has a bunch of German states bickering with each other, in a way similar to the countries in the world meeting from the first episode, with a preteen Holy Rome trying to calm them in a way similar to Germany. Then he starts to cough Blood from the Mouth and collapses in a worried Hungary's arms from exhaustion.
Mindscrew: Anything to do with Mochimerica. Anything.
Japanese people back in the day walked around wearing only towels, apparently. After this behavior fell out of favor in Japan, he goes to other countries and sees people sleeping naked (Italy), and is very confused.
Spain somehow losing his pants and his underwear.
Nightmare Fetishist: Romania is confirmed as one, much to Bulgaria's distress.
Bulgaria: You sure have strange tastes.
Romania: You know nothing of my tastes~
No Big Deal: Apparently, Austria sits on Germany all the time.
Noodle Incident: "Man, I never would have imagined some yogurt would just fall down at that place!"
Not to be confused with Flying Mint Bunny. FLB is a small ball of fluff with big, leafy ears who belongs to Norway. England asked to pet him and Norway agreed. In return, Iggy let him pet FMB.
Sitcom Arch Nemesis: Hungary and Romania. They never miss an opportunity to glare at each other.
Enemy Mine: What they'll end up being if they're responsible for the plot, as the WMG goes.
Schedule Slip: The event was originally set to end at New Year. It lasted more than just a little longer.
Ship Tease: a few of the moments under Ho Yay probably count. Italy sleeping on Germany's lap, Estonia making Latvia smile, England giving America chocolate...Romano running around with Spain's PANTS.
Elsewhere, Liechtenstein's reaction to meeting Kugelmugel — "Aah, cute! ... I heard that you were a cute person, but you're absolutely adorable!"
And now Seborga/Monaco, as she agrees to go on a date with him... if he beats her at poker. He loses, but she goes out to dinner with him anyway!
Hungary approves of Austria wearing a corset and talking about underwear.
Tempting Fate: Oh, Finland. Didn't you learn anything from last year?
"It looks like this year's Christmas will be a good one!"
The Bet: Monaco wants Seborga to beat her at poker. Once he does that, she'll go out with him all he likes. He loses, but she goes out with him anyway.
