#I was still in France at the time smhhh

isn't it canon that feli goes to cons? wasn't he dressed up as luffy from one piece? they probably go to cons together and talk about anime lmao nerds💕 they have seen so much and experienced so many tragedies throughout history, and still has to do like paperwork and stuff, let them enjoy things outside nation duties🤲🏻

Yessss omg ❤️ The history of Anime in Italy is also quite interesting!

Maybe he’s not on the same level as France, but I think he’d still love anime and manga (especially anime). I remember being able to watch shows like One Piece, Dragon Ball Z, and Detective Conan on mainstream (non kids) channels when I was younger. He would definitely have long conversations with France about whatever series they’re both into, and them going to cons and cosplaying together does sound super cute 😭 I can totally see it. The costumes they make together are probably works of art.

Also I have a headcanon that Feli’s favourite anime/manga series is Lupin III. There’s a lot of love for Lupin III in Italy- to the point where we get “special treatment” when it comes to releases and content. If I’m not mistaken, Italy has also produced quite a few Lupin comics of our own! So yea, I imagine Feli to be a super fan ❤️

This is a bit of a non-hetalia bonus but one thing I ALWAYS love to bring up are the Italian theme songs that were made for anime back in the day. My personal favourite is the Doraemon opening, and since we talked about one piece:
