Well, now that everyone's here, let's begin the G8 Meeting.
Huh? Hang on a sec, Japan.
I keep getting the feeling we're forgetting someone...
What is it?
If you're talking about your friends, they're floating around somewhere, aren't they?
That's not what I mean!
We're missing someone! Aren't there supposed to be eight of us?
It looks like we're all here, though...
I'm here, too!
I agree with Japan, but I say we start a head count.
I'm here, so who cares!
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
There are only seven of us!
I think we're missing China.
I don't think so...
T-The missing member... this feels like it's straight out of a horror movie!
What?! I'm scared!!
I'm sorry for arriving late.
This entire day has been a mess.
When I woke up, it was past noon!
Oh... we were all anxiously awaiting your arrival, sir.
Oh, so the meeting hasn't started yet...
What a relief...
Who the hell is he?!
Hey, Kumakichi...
His name is actually Kumajiro
I wonder why I don't stand out very well?
Who are you again?
I'm Canada.
He can't remember who his master is, and his master can't remember his name...
Every country seems to be ruled by imperialism these days, so I'm feeling kind of uncomfortable.
Why can't things be more romantic?
Hey Greece, what are you digging at?
I'm trying to excavate the Olympia Ruins that my mother left me.
This is a stadium from ancient times, and they used to celebrate a festival called the Olympics here.
And during the festival, all wars would cease, and young men strived to excel in a sport.
Sorry, but I can't say I'm too interes-
I think...
I think my mother also used to watch...
No, that's impossible.
Hey, did you know?
All the competitors of the Olympics were men, and they all participated naked.
What an awesome festival! It can't get any better!
Hey guys!
Let's participate in the Olympics! Come on!
And thus, due to a suggestion by France, the first modern Olympic festival was held.
It was held on April 6th, 1896 at Athens, the birthplace of the Olympics.
The Olympics.
It'll become the stage where men will engage in heated competitions with one another...
The beautiful, trained bodies that slam against each other...
How wonderful!
Why don't you have any clothes on?!
What?
England... get with the program already, okay?
This is the Olympics we're talking about!
Why are you wearing clothes on this sacred stage?
Come on, take it off!
Are you going to make me do it for you?
Cut it out!!
You pervert!
Don't take it off!
Stop it!!!
You're not too tough, are you?
There are some things that I'd rather not see.
In the Ancient Olympics, everyone performed naked.
The reason for this was to prevent cheating,
and also, during that period, the Greece believed that men should be naked at all times.
Mister Officer, you don't understand anything about ancient culture!
This is a form of love!
Being one with God.
That's what being naked is all about!
This is how they celebrated the Olympics in Ancient Greece-
The times have changed.
Hey hey papa, give me wine!
Hey hey mama, hey hey mama!
I can't forget that taste
of the bolognese I ate before!
Draw a circle, there's Earth!
I'm Hetalia!
Ah, a fabulous world,
that can be seen with a paintbrush.
Let's have a toast with our boots!
hetalia
Damn you, America!
Cuba
Allow me to work off my long-standing grudge!
Maple!
What was that for?
I'm not America!
What?
You're definitely America! The glasses give it away!
I'm Canada, got it... sir?
People say we look alike, but I'm not America!
Don't even compare me with that idiot!
If anything, America is the one causing me trouble!
What? You're America's underling?
N-No! That's not it!!
To be continued.
