Ah, I see...I suppose it will be best if I fall into neutrality, too. I rather not be involved in any argument that might flare up.

Yeah, the TV-MA thing is pretty clear now XD Maybe part of the reason I don't feel this is such a big deal is from watching South Park all those times...Though I still think the implications of the series in general are much more offensive than a few lines regarding battle. The rewrite might be much harsher than the original wording, but it's not like the series hasn't ignored some more cruel parts of history itself (or, in some of the North Korea strips' case, just worsened controversy), while glorifying some of the "villains". I suppose I just don't think that far into it--I know the true history and can suspend my disbelief enough to enjoy the series. However, were someone to begin defending the actions of certain countries/their leaders and cite Hetalia, I would be arguing in no time.
