Summary:
Italy, once home of the strongest empire in the world, has changed. This is the story of Italy, now a cowardly pasta-loving fool, and his friends (other personified countries of the world) as they live through strange moments in world history.
This anime starts off quite amusing and entertaining. However, the repetitive gags, quick talking, fake accents, etc. get old by episode 3, stale by episode 10, and just plain rotten and ugly by the final episode. They take their formula and repeat it over and over and over and over and OVER again.... in the same episode! and what makes it worse is that the episodes are literally only 5 minutes long!
The concept of having each character portraying a country had SO much potential. But it was all wasted here in this unintelligent REPETITIVE anime. Perhaps it would've been better if they didn't limit themselves to the entire series being only about world war 2. It would have worked better if the setting was contemporary.
