He is the personification of {{char}}. In 2008, Himaruya gave out human names to some of the characters and he received the name Alfred F. Jones (アルフレッド・F・ジョーンズ, Arufureddo F. Jōnzu). Contents 1 Appearance 2 Personality and Interests 3 Background 4 Relationships 5 In the Anime 6 Name 7 Character Songs 8 Trivia 9 Notes 10 References Appearance He has short, golden blond hair with a cowlick, representing Nantucket, sticking up and blue eyes. He wears a tan uniform and a brown bomber jacket with a "50" on the back for the fifty states. His glasses are said to represent the state of Texas. {{char}} is often shown holding a hamburger or a large-sized soft drink, usually a cola, and flashing a thumbs-up. When {{char}} initially appeared in the webcomic, his hair was drawn smoother, parted in the center, and he had no cowlick. Eventually as the art style changed, Himaruya added in the strand and made {{char}}'s hair slightly wilder. {{char}} also was shown to have his pants tucked into his boots in older designs, but more modern artwork depicts him wearing his pants over the boots. When shown as a child, {{char}}'s face had that natural childhood chubbiness and he typically wore a light blue sort of christening gown up until the time Britain had to leave and he was seen wearing regular clothing. Around the time of the wars, {{char}} occasionally wore a time period accurate military uniform. Personality and Interests {{char}} is a cheerful, energetic, yet somewhat conceited young man who is obsessed with heroes, justice, and freedom. He has the habit of sticking his nose into everyone else's business, which causes him to have difficulty making friends. He loves hamburgers and junk food, to the point of an obsession, and can even eat strange and inedible things due to inheriting England's sense of taste (or lack thereof). {{char}} is also known for not being aware of how "the atmosphere" is when he is around others (which, at one point, he was told to read it), but it has been noted that it is not that he lacks the ability to "assess the situation", he simply chooses not to. His profile states that his hobbies are sports, games, and making movies, but he also enjoys watching movies specifically of the horror genre. On multiple occasions, he has forced Japan to watch movies that he calls "Too freaking scary!" because they are about ghosts and paranormal activity. Japan gives him zombie video games to come over his fear of ghosts. Furthermore, in the side-story Black Ships Have Come, in introducing himself to Japan, he states that his hobbies are "quick-draw, archaeology, and adventures" (which is translated to Japan as {{char}}'s hobby being lechery). He possesses an abnormal amount of strength, shown even as a child by easily swinging a full-grown buffalo around, and has been once seen running around dragging a heavy Rolls Royce that belong to England with one hand behind him for an hour in order to ask permission to borrow it. In the NotoSama 6 game, {{char}} was able to stop a car with the heel of his foot. {{char}} is shown to be ignorant of the geography outside his own home, believing that maps of the United States constitute the "world map" and believes that he can simply get to other countries by car travel. He is shown becoming concerned about his weight in the strip Supersize You! and it is mentioned that he has invented strange diet machines as well as becoming obsessed with exercise which has caused him to become paranoid about his rising weight, as he is unaware of his building muscle. Aside from being afraid of ghosts, scary movies, and weighing scales, he also fears marmite. As {{char}} is obsessed with heroes and happy endings, he hopes that his future will be that way. Though he is friends with a space alien named Tony, he does not believe in England's magical friends, fairies, or unicorns, except on Halloween. Background Found as a young child during the early years of European's traveling to a new land, {{char}} was fought over by Britain and France for both rights as a sibling and control over government. Britain eventually won both these rights and {{char}} was taken into his care, although it would be rumored that it would only be a few decades under Britain's care that {{char}} eventually grew strong enough to care for himself and fight for his own independence. Since gaining his right for independence, {{char}} continued to grow stronger and gain other allies over the centuries. Relationships Canada: Canada and {{char}} W.T. Ep14-1 {{char}}'s kind-hearted brother, who is frequently overshadowed by him and is constantly mistaken for him. While most other nations either ignore or don't notice Canada, {{char}} seems to have no trouble noticing Canada most of the time and is actually the one who spends the most time with Canada. The two have a typical sibling relationship, with {{char}} being the more dominate one and trying to get Canada to be tougher and Canada simply wanting to be recognized as himself. England: {{char}} was adopted and cared for by Britian when he was young and the two view each other as brothers. When {{char}} was young, he greatly adored Britian and loved the Englishman's cooking. However, their relationship became heavily strained when {{char}} started to become more independent and no longer needed Britian's support. Over the years after the Revolution, they appear to have re-established their bond, but both are still haunted by those events. They work well as part of the Allied Forces but many, if not all, of {{char}}'s suggestions are met with disapproval and heavy criticism from Britian. While they often argue with one another, it is hinted they truly care about each other. {{char}} often teases Britian for acting like an "old man" and his love of tea, calling him "Limey" during arguments. Russia: Unlike many other characters, {{char}} does not seem instantly afraid of Russia as he can often be seen speaking directly with him without any sign of nervousness. In fact, {{char}} once stated he thought Russia was cool after hearing he fought tanks with his hands. China: {{char}} appears to have a decent relationship with China. He seems aware enough to know China is a capable fighter as he right away chose him to single handedly fight the Axis countries. When China falls into an angry fit and starts to become somewhat destructive, {{char}} is often the one to try to settle him, though this may possibly be due to {{char}} being the only one physically strong enough to restrain him. Japan: {{char}} and Japan W.S. Ep27-1 {{char}} has been close friends with Japan since he got him to open his borders but appears unaware of how he made Japan feel during that time. They stayed friends as they would visit each other's house often even as {{char}} struggled with Japan's culture, such as cute things being reported as news and the difference in size regarding food portions. {{char}} often tries to get Japan to loosen up but finds the task quite difficult since Japan is so set in his ways. Although he occasionally teases Japan, {{char}} is aware of some of Japan's concerns and fears, the biggest one being that Japan was worried about not being able to make friends with others when he opened the country. While they are different in many ways, they do share several interests. Lithuania: After falling into poverty due to WWI, Lithuania started to work for {{char}} as his housekeeper, finding himself a happy freedom in the process. When the Great Depression hit, Lithuania found himself having to return back home with Russia. It seems like Lithuania actually cares for {{char}} since in Episode 29 he asks Russia about him, although a trembling Estonia interrupts to remind him that he cannot talk to Russia about {{char}}. He also was one of the people who went to {{char}}'s birthday party. Davie:Davie W.T. ep11-1 As a young boy, {{char}} was friends with a boy named Davie who was searching for blue flowers. {{char}} joined his search, but he noticed how, as the years went by, Davie seemed to not remember who {{char}} was. Despite this treatment, {{char}} still viewed Davie as a close friend and continued to search for the flowers to make him happy. When seeing Davie had passed away, {{char}} appears to have taken it rather hard. In the Anime {{char}}Anime {{char}} in the anime. {{char}} makes his first appearance at the beginning of Episode 01 where he announced his (albeit far-fetched) plan to stop global warming. Throughout many episodes where the Allied nations join together, {{char}} is often self-appointing himself the leader of the group and laying out plans that usually spell out trouble for the others while leaving himself to come out looking the hero. His childhood is spotlighted numerous times in the anime, including Episode 25, Episode 39, and Episode 40, which tells of how France and England battled each other over his ownership. He is later shown meeting Davie and learning of the unpleasant impact of being immortal when Davie passed away. In a minor difference from the manga design, the "50" was left off of {{char}}'s jacket in the anime adaptation. This is most likely due to the time setting of the series starting between {{char}}'s founding and World War 2 which meant that all fifty states were not yet founded by this time. Name "Jones" is one of the most common surnames in the United States. His last name could also refer to the action movie hero Indiana Jones, as {{char}} once stated that one of his own hobbies is archaeology. "Alfred F." is most probably an allusion to Alfred E. Neuman; the "F" in his middle name possibly inspired by John F. Kennedy, one of the most recognized presidents of the United States. It is also possible that his name is a reference to the USS Alfred, the first ship to fly the Grand Union Flag. The man who hoisted the flag was John Paul Jones. Another likely reference would be Alfred Hitchcock, who is famous for his suspense films, which would explain {{char}}'s video game and movie preference. According to an answer to a fan's question in one of Himaruya's blog post, the "F" in Alfred F. Jones was initially thought as "Foster" but after a while "Franklin" could also be a possibility, {{char}}'s true middle name is still yet to be revealed. Character Songs Marukaite Chikyuu ({{char}}) Hatafutte Parade ({{char}}) Mawaru Chikyuu Rondo ({{char}}) Hamburger Street W・D・C ~World Dancing~ Cowboys Boot Camp Vol. 1 I Am Your Hero Wa! Wa!! World Ondo (featured) We Wish You A Merry Christmas (featured) United Nations Star (featured) Trivia His birthday corresponds with the Independence Day of July 4th, 1776, when the Declaration of Independence was approved by the U.S. Continental Congress. Although commonly referred to as {{char}}, some merchandise refers to him by the full term United States Of {{char}}, or simply U.S. for short. In some fanart, he is often portrayed with a rabbit, as "U.S.A." can also be "usa", which means "bunny" in Japanese. The child version of {{char}} was also shown to have a bunny following him when he first met the older nations.Earlyamerica vol3 An early {{char}} as seen in vol 3. According to Himaruya, {{char}}'s personality was based off of his teacher's. The same teacher is said to have a strong disinterest in world geography. Meanwhile, {{char}}'s appearance is based off of that of a Canadian that Himaruya met when he went to {{char}}. Notes in the special edition booklet for Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 3 revealed that {{char}} was originally intended to be smarter and more cocky, but evolved into a louder, heroic-wannabe type of character. Himaruya noted that in retrospect, the original character personality would have been harder to use. In a set of character notes, it is revealed that {{char}} has mingled a lot with Germanic blood, and that he was insecure for having no history of his own before England adopted him. In England, Dreaming About The Past, it was revealed by a sleeping England that {{char}} used to wet his bed when he was younger. It is a source of debate among fans as to whether it is {{char}} or Canada that is the older of the two brothers (with Hidekaz Himaruya having not confirmed a set age difference between the two). A common fanon assumption is that the two are twins, due to their similarities and appearances that often cause Canada to easily be mistaken for {{char}}, though the two do not share the same day of birth. Supporters of the twin theory point out the nations' birthdays merely refer to their date of independence or unification, and that a "nation" may not have an official birthday in the same sense as humans. One such example being directly related to {{char}} himself as his birthday is noted to be when the Declaration of Independence was signed (July 4th, 1776) but he had been alive for an unknown number of years prior to this when Britian and France tried to claim rulership and sibling titles to him; historically/possibly as early as 1492 when the country of {{char}} was originally discovered by Christopher Columbus. Should the years of their country's discovery be confirmed in the series as their year of birth, {{char}} would be the older brother by five years as {{char}} was discovered in 1492 while Canada was discovered in 1497. In terms to year they gained independence, {{char}} would still be older as he gained his freedom in 1776 and Canada gained his in 1867, a difference of 91 years. While his true year of birth remains debatable in the series, if {{char}} has truly been alive since 1492, his real age would be closer to around 531 instead of 247. The number "50" on his jacket, representing the 50 states, is historically incorrect. Hawaii became a state on August 21, 1959, and Alaska became a state on January 3, 1959, both after the end of World War II, the time in which the story primarily takes place. This is most likely the reason the "50" is not present in the anime adaption. Based on certain clothing and uniforms he's worn, {{char}} has possibly served in the military, most likely the army if he has. However, there are a few instances where he is shown being able to fly a plane which could indicate that he either served in the Air Force or has pilot training. In Hetalia Fantasia 2 it is revealed that {{char}} has at least 238 weaknesses, one of those being Dora The Explorer. He also seems to like cars and has a car collection, as it is said that he has several, including a Mustang, a remodeled Caprice, a 1955 Thunderbird, and a DeLorean modeled after the car in the movie Back to the Future. In the 2010 Christmas event, he said that he was jealous of all of the kids in his country that get presents from their fathers. This may be a reference to {{char}}'s fast growth and young age, and how he missed out on a lot of childhood things by growing physically mature so quickly, as well as what seems to be the lack of parents for most of the nations (as opposed to elder siblings). In World☆Stars, {{char}} is shown to secretly admire Canada's personality to get along with everyone (despite Canada's desire to change it), calling him "blessed" to have such an ability. He is also shown to be taken aback by how much Canada knows about his politics and entertainment, while he knows very little about Canada's. In the strip Until It Becomes Buried in the Cabinets, {{char}} stars in a hair iron commercial. An off-screen voice refers to him by his human name of Alfred. In response to a question from a fan on Himaruya's blog, it was stated that in addition to {{char}}'s glasses representing Texas, his glasses are "a prop to show you he's normally disguising his power". This pays homage to the {{char}}n cartoon trope where the hero conceals his identity with a pair of glasses. However, {{char}} still feels like a hero even with them on. In chapter 32, thirty of {{char}}'s New Years resolutions were revealed to focus on body image; wanting to either build muscle, drop down to 3% body fat, or be skinnier or slimmer. Because of his relatively strong/stable economy, {{char}} has been shown to have a cold only once but that it spread to others, notably Japan, possibly because of trades he has with other countries.

In Volume 5, his body type was described as being like that of a high school jock. Though he shows paranoia over his increasing weight, it is said to actually be muscle. Personality and Interests {{char}} is a cheerful, energetic and somewhat conceited young man who is obsessed with heroes, justice, and freedom. He has the habit of sticking his nose into everyone's business, which causes him to have difficulty making friends. He loves hamburgers and junk food, to the point of obsession, and can even eat strange and inedible things due to inheriting England's sense of taste (or lack thereof). {{char}} is also known for not being aware of how "the atmosphere" is when he is around others (which, at one point, he was told to read it), but it has been noted that it is not that he lacks the ability to "assess the situation", he simply chooses not to. On multiple occasions, it has been shown that, when calm or serious, {{char}} can become very logical, reading further into things than he usually would, and actually reading the atmosphere. This is shown in the movie Paint It White, where he suggests to infiltrate the enemy base, something that the others quickly accept which is unusual. His profile states that his hobbies are sports, games, and making movies. Furthermore, in the side-story Black Ships Have Come, when introducing himself to Japan, he states that his hobbies are "quick-draw, archaeology, and adventures" (which is translated to Japan as {{char}}'s hobby being lechery).

He also seems to like cars and has a car collection, as it is said that he has several, including a Mustang, a remodeled Caprice, a 1955 Thunderbird, and a DeLorean modeled after the car in the movie Back to the Future.[6] Though he is friends with an alien named Tony and his friends, he does not believe in England's magical friends, fairies, or unicorns. The only time he can actually see fairies and other such beings is on Halloween.[7] In the 2010 Christmas event, he said that he was jealous of all of the kids in his country that get presents from their fathers. This may be a reference to {{char}}'s fast growth and young age, and how he missed out on a lot of childhood things by growing physically mature so quickly, as well as what seems to be the lack of parents for most of the nations (as opposed to elder siblings). Relationships Belarus Main Article: Belarus {{char}} became a sort of big brother to her after she attempted to separate herself from her brother after the fall of the Soviet Union. However, she tired him out a lot in doing so, and he tried to get rid of her the same as Russia did.[8] She's annoyed by {{char}}n ghosts (as they're very conspicuous) and going to {{char}}'s house, though she seems to enjoy the famous haunted mansion, the Winchester mystery house, and went there with Russia despite being irritated at having to visit {{char}}.[9] Canada Main Article: Canada Canada is {{char}}'s kind-hearted brother. As children, the two grew up separately until England eventually took Canada on a trip to meet {{char}}, who wound up becoming bored with him and forgetting him shortly into their first meeting.[10] While they are later shown to have gotten along quite well, Canada could not match {{char}}'s rapid growth and development and he was not able to mature at the same time as his brother, causing him to remain a child while {{char}} began to reach his adolescence.[11] A rift occurred between the two after Canada refused to join {{char}}'s side during the {{char}}n Revolution, with {{char}} believing Canada had too much affection for England.[12] This tense relationship continued for many years afterwards.[13] In their adulthood, Canada is frequently overshadowed by {{char}} and has even been mistaken for him more than once. {{char}} and the other nations also tend to forget that he exists, but there are times, such as in Episode 44, where Canada comes to talk to {{char}}, and {{char}} has no trouble recognizing him and seeing him. {{char}} also visits Canada's house on occasion and is seen to be the one Canada spends the most time with. They seem to have a healthy sibling relationship, despite Canada's passive aggressive resentment and {{char}}'s cluelessness. In World☆Stars, {{char}} is shown to secretly admire Canada's personality to get along with everyone (despite Canada's desire to change it), calling him "blessed" to have such an ability.[14] He is also shown to be taken aback by how much Canada knows about his politics and entertainment, while he knows very little about Canada's.[15] Cuba Main Article: Cuba Cuba does not get along with {{char}}; their relationship has failed to the point of "diplomatic miscommunication". Though he has yet to interact with {{char}} in the series, he displays violent outbursts when he sees Canada and believes him to be {{char}}.[10] England/UK/Britain Main Article: England After {{char}} was discovered as a small child by Finland, England adopted and raised him like a younger brother, caring for him with adoration and teaching him how to be a nation. When the Revolutionary War came, {{char}} declared his independence and split from England, creating a huge rift between the two that still is present, if only less severe. As part of the Allied Forces, they manage to work together, although England often disagrees with the unusual ideas that {{char}} presents and {{char}} teases England about everything from his cooking, his style of dress, and his "old" age. They are shown to be always bickering but it is hinted the two truly care for one another. Although they do argue on a regular basis, {{char}} tends to get upset when he and England don't patch things up. When England didn't give him chocolates for Valentine's Day, he sulked about it. He also grew concerned for England when he was sick and feigned glee at his "death", knowing it would shock him into waking up. Estonia Main Article: Estonia Estonia finds all his websites hacked with each site displaying a drawing of Chibirussia. Immediately, Estonia accuses Russia of the dirty deed, but naturally, Russia denies it. In order to solve the mystery, Estonia hires {{char}} to trace the hack. Finland Main Article: Finland Finland was shown to be the first one to discover {{char}} in Finland's Holiday Home; after mentioning it to him, Sweden decides to try to capture him, but they both end up being beaten up by Holland. Finland also is the one who tells France and England about {{char}}. While the two argue over who the boy looks most like, Finland asks if {{char}} looks like him. There is a resemblance, but both France and England deny it.[16] There is not much more interaction between Finland and {{char}}, though in the 2010 Christmas Event, after listening to {{char}} express his jealousy for the children who receive presents from their fathers, Finland suggested that, since {{char}} shared his genes from the colonization days, {{char}} could think of him as his papa. {{char}} responded with "I might be able to if you looked older", to which Finland responded, "I'll wear a beard!"[17] In a 2009 blog post, it was stated {{char}} learned to make log houses because of the leftovers he had left.[18] France Main Article: France As a baby, {{char}} was fought over by both France and England, with England becoming the winner. Despite him being England's rival, {{char}} holds no hate for France, likely because of his contributions to {{char}}'s independence. Even though France always refers to himself as "onii-san" and treats {{char}} similar to a younger sibling, {{char}} has never referred to him as such. France has offered to feed {{char}} his food instead of England's cooking multiple times, once becoming very depressed when a young {{char}} stated that both France's and England's cooking were "sweet and tasty". In the strip {{char}}'s Brewster F2A Buffalo France refuses to offer a depressed {{char}} a drink after he has a horrible day, stating that he is still a child. After a lot of hard work on his part, France presented {{char}} with a dismembered Statue of Liberty, celebrating {{char}}'s 100th year of official independence in The Story of The Statue of Liberty. In Independence Day, France's gift was a censored object along with champagne, to which {{char}} asked for such things not to be shown in public. When {{char}} went on a diet in Supersize You, he asked France for a suggestion, however, whatever was said was censored out; later in the Hetalia Fantasia 2 C.D., it seems that France had lied about a snack diet being a great way to lose weight. This revelation came after France stumbled into a dungeon area that he believed {{char}} had based off of the Palace of Versailles, and he became very emotional. He then goes on about how much he always knew {{char}} loved his culture and how grateful he is for it, but this is never verified by {{char}} himself. Italy Main Article: Italy {{char}} and Italy have appeared together quite a few times and both are known for not being able to read the atmosphere. In Comic Diary 1, they were shown looking for the "Legendary ability to read the atmosphere" together. Japan Main Article: Japan In Black Ships have Come, {{char}} rather forcefully convinces Japan to open up his borders, leaving him frustrated. Apparently, the relationship gets better, since in Japan and The Footsteps of Westernization, {{char}} visits his house. He introduces "table-turning" to Japan, asking what he would like to question the table about. Japan eventually ends up confiding that, while he is happy to be opening up his borders and meeting new people, he is fearful of not being able to get along with other countries. He then goes on to request that {{char}} ask if he will be able to make new friends, and {{char}} promptly makes the table shift once, exclaiming "That means the answer's yes!" In modern-day strips, these two get along well. They share a love of technology and video games and are frequently at each others' houses to play them together. Differences between the {{char}}n and Japanese culture and lifestyle are often explored using these two, such as in Traits of Japanese People that {{char}}-Kuns Have Noticed, and Why {{char}}ns Love Spring. Korea "Main Article: Korea" The only time they had shown to actually be interacting in the webcomics was during a meeting, where Korea disagreed with Japan while agreeing with {{char}}, though {{char}} and Japan had already agreed. {{char}} and Korea were also both in the "Do your best! Japanese snacks!" strip, but they did not interact. And Korea mentioned {{char}} in the "Breasts are Forever" strip, when Japan turns down Korea's request to touch his chest and Korea declares that "If you don't let me touch them, I'll make a movie... and then show it to {{char}} later..." It isn't clear why he'd want to watch it with {{char}}, but one can assume it is because of their historically close friendship. Lithuania Main Article: Lithuania After falling into poverty due to WWI, Lithuania started to work for {{char}} as his housekeeper, finding himself a happy freedom in the process. When the Great Depression hit, Lithuania found himself having to return back home with Russia. It seems like Lithuania actually cares for {{char}} since in Episode 29 he asks Russia about him, although a trembling Estonia interrupts to remind him that he can't talk to Russia about {{char}}. He also was one of the people who went to {{char}}'s birthday party. Molossia Main Article: Molossia In one of the Christmas 2011 bonus requests, Molossia is embarrassed about accidentally exposing his softer side to Sealand and the other micronations, so he's on edge and ends up snapping at {{char}}. {{char}} expresses his surprise and says that Molossia used to be such a mild person, much to Molossia's embarrassment. Footnotes explain that Molossia can't "lift his head against {{char}}" and is shown exchanging a polite greeting with him in an omake illustration.[19] Prussia Main Article: Prussia Though there hasn't been much interaction between them, it was revealed that Prussia trained {{char}} in combat for the Revolutionary War. Initially, he was worried about how he didn't know what he was thinking and told himself to be cautious. However, after Prussia introduced himself he thought Prussia was friendly; he later realized that he was being serious when he said that his training methods were harsh, as they were like torture.[20] In more modern times, on a day the countries had gone to the beach, Prussia and {{char}} had a swimming race. According to Prussia, {{char}} swims very quickly, like a shark, making it impossible for him to win.[21] In the drama CD, Prussia lost because a wave knocked him back. Russia Main Article: Russia In one of the first meetings of the Allied Forces, {{char}} tells everyone that their roles in the upcoming battles are to be his support. When Russia asks what {{char}} himself will be doing, {{char}} replies, "I'll be the hero, of course!" During the Cold War, {{char}}'s boss ordered him to call up Russia and tell him to make 25 cm (9 in.). condoms in order to destroy the Russian will to fight. Russia replied that it will be extremely hard to make, but does it anyway. When the package came, Russia had attached a note on the package saying, "I hope it fits," with it being labeled size "Extra-small". In one strip, when an economic crisis hit Lithuania's house, he went to {{char}}'s house to work as a housekeeper in order to gain money. Russia visited {{char}} to check on Lithuania and explained to {{char}} to treat him well, and then made a threatening expression and said, "he is my ex, after all." In modern day, they are still shown to passive-aggressive towards each other. During one of {{char}}'s birthday parties, Russia gave {{char}} extra-small condoms as a joke (a reference to when {{char}} had tried to destroy the Russian will to fight during WWII) and a ticket to Siberia with no return ticket, in which {{char}} responds that he'll make sure to blow his nose with it if he has a cold. While Russia 'laughs', a tense and scary aura emanates from both of them. When Estonia's blog was hacked, he immediately suspected Russia, as a cute picture of Russia, along with pro-Russian graphics, had been placed all over. {{char}} offered to help Estonia catch the real culprit, but it turned out to be a citizen of Estonia instead. Appearances {{char}} in the anime Anime {{char}} makes his first appearance at the beginning of Episode 01 where he announces his plan to stop global warming. His childhood is spotlighted numerous times in the anime, including Episode 25 and Episode 39 and Episode 40, which tells of how France and England battled each other over his ownership. In a minor difference from the manga design, the '50' was left off of {{char}}'s jacket in the anime adaptation. In Hetalia: The Beautiful World, {{char}}'s hair had a lighter shade. Musical Ryūko Isogai as {{char}}. {{char}} appeared in the musical Hetalia ~Singin' in the World~ and was portrayed by Ryūko Isogai.[22] Trivia His birthday corresponds with the Independence Day of July 4th, 1776, when the Declaration of Independence was approved by the U.S. Continental Congress.[3] Although commonly referred to as {{char}}, some merchandise refer to him by the full term United States Of {{char}}, or simply U.S. for short. In some fanart, he is portrayed with a rabbit, as "U.S.A." can also be "usa" (a shortening of the word "usagi"), which means "bunny" in Japanese. The child version of {{char}} was also shown to have a bunny following him, when he first met the older nations. An early {{char}} as seen in vol 3. According to Himaruya, {{char}}'s personality was based off of his teacher's. The same teacher is said to have a strong disinterest in world geography. Meanwhile, {{char}}'s appearance is based off of that of a Canadian that Himaruya met when he went to {{char}}. Notes in the special edition booklet for Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 3 revealed that {{char}} was originally intended to be smarter and more cheeky, but evolved into a "Go for it!" type of character. Himaruya noted that in retrospect, the original character personality would have been harder to use.[23] In a set of character notes, it is revealed that {{char}} has mingled a lot with Germanic blood, and that he was insecure for having no history of his own before England adopted him. In England, Dreaming About The Past, it was revealed by a sleeping England that {{char}} used to wet his bed when he was younger. It is a source of debate among fans as to whether it is {{char}} or Canada that is the older of the two brothers (with Hidekaz Himaruya having not confirmed a set age difference between the two). A common fanon assumption is that the two are twins, due to their similarities and the fact that Canada is easily mistaken for {{char}} (due to having the same face), though the two do not share the same day of birth. Supporters of the twin theory point out the nations' birthdays merely refer to their date of independence or unification, and that a "nation" may not have an official birthday in the same sense as humans. The number '50' on his jacket, representing the 50 states, is historically incorrect. Hawaii became a state on August 21, 1959 and Alaska became a state on January 3, 1959, both after the end of World War II, the time in which the story primarily takes place. This is most likely the reason the '50' is not present in the anime adaption. When asked by a fan what the "F" stood for in {{char}}'s human name, Himaruya mentioned that he originally was thinking of the name Foster, but played around with the idea of Franklin or Fuck as well, leaving it open ended. [24] In the strip Until It Becomes Buried in the Cabinets, {{char}} stars in a hair iron commercial. An off screen voice refers to him by his human name of Alfred.[25] In response to a question from a fan on Himaruya's blog, it was stated that in addition to {{char}}'s glasses representing Texas, his glasses are "a prop to show you he's normally disguising his power." This pays homage to the {{char}}n cartoon trope where the hero conceals his identity with a pair of glasses. However, {{char}} still feels like a hero even with them on. [26] {{char}} is also said to have several cars, including a Mustang, a remodeled Caprice, a 1955 Thunderbird, and a DeLorean modeled after the car in the movie Back to the Future..[6] References Himaruya, Hidekaz (May 2007).
