Hetalia.

My 15 year old has recently become a big fan of Hetalia and, at her invitation, I watched some episodes with her. My first thought was, wow, the entire humor is based on stereotypes---not good. But I have to admit it was funny, too. And as my daughter observed, all nationalities are mocked. No country is spared. I enjoyed the segments, and was surprised at the accuracy of some of the historical vignettes.

Any thoughts on Hetalia?
