Gō Inoue (Spain)
“We finally get a new series after so many years! My happiness at seeing Spain, the boss, again is equal to tomatoes raining down at a tomato festival! I’m covered in tomatoes! What kinds of characters will get wrapped up in things this time around? And are Italy and Romano doing well? The boss is very interested to see! I’m looking forward to it!”
Atsushi Kousaka (Prussia)
“Getting to be involved in a series I have always loved really makes me happy. I’m even more diligent in loving the series in getting to play a part. My goal is to make people who watch the series feel peace! Love and peace are themes of Hetalia after all! (I think). Happiness to the world!!”
