@Blique - You're welcome! I hope they don't D: Well, I guess I do for the fans there, but I always miss out on Hetalia goods.

@Mike - I think it'll be easier once everyone gets used to it. Currently, we're all used to the Japanese VAs. Thankfully, none of the Funimation ones are bad--they're different from the original, but aren't suffering from terrible and stiff acting. From the three clips, Japan's seems basically the same. Germany's was changed a little, but I don't find it confusing. The only one was with Russia and France--France seemed to get the child comment from no where, though I think it was that Russia mentioned how he was happy to join their ranks (thus, "growing up" to where he could be with them). In any case, it all keeps the spirit of the original. Nothing is really lost in terms of characterization, and their comments, in the end, give off the same mood and idea.

And remember, the DVD also comes with subs. :)
