List of Hetalia: Axis Powers chapters (published manga)

This is a list of the volumes and associated stories in the published version of Axis Powers Hetalia, by Hidekaz Himaruya.

Meeting Of The World
In this modern-day story, the nations meet to discuss solving the problems of the world, only for the meeting to quickly turn chaotic.

Prologue
In the midst of WWI, the history of Ancient Rome is detailed, as Germany (searching to battle Rome's successor) finds an unusual crate in the forest. He takes Italy captive, but finds that the other man doesn't seem to mind it...

Axis Powers
Italy is sent back home after annoying Germany with a song he wrote, but later returns to work for Germany after his family becomes poor. The war between Germany and France causes Italy to declare himself Germany's ally.

After becoming allies, Germany and Italy meet Japan and form the Axis Powers. Other events include the introduction of Austria, who is not amused at the idea of Italy and Germany becoming allies, and the introduction of Italy's older brother Romano, who just plain hates Germany.

Power Ranger Allied Forces
The Allied Forces, lead by America, form to take down the Axis Powers in any way they can. Canada and the Baltics (Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia) are also introduced in this chapter.

Cleaning Out The Storage
America finds that cleaning out his storage room is more difficult than he thought, as past memories with England, good and bad, come back to haunt him.

Chibitalia
The Chibitalia arc from the webcomic is reprinted, but with an altered/edited ending (mainly to remove the kiss scene between Chibitalia and Holy Roman Empire).

Daybreak Chaos
Maria Theresa And The War Of Austrian Succession is reprinted in this chapter, introducing Prussia to the printed manga.

In The World
Contains the first appearance of Finland in the printed manga, outside of "Meeting Of The World".

Preview: To The Unfinished Tomorrow
A preview of a currently unfinished storyline:

September 1st, 1939: Italy bids Germany good luck as both him and Austria prepare to go off to war. Elsewhere, Russia remarks that German people seem to be incredibly easily to manipulate, while France and England get word of Germany's plan and decide to declare war on him. The final panel is of the Polish flag, blowing in the wind.


 * Though the end of the preview reads "To be continued in Hetalia 2", no continuation of this storyline was given in the second volume, or anywhere else so far. It has been assumed that Gentosha editorial ordered the storyline postponed due to its implications, or that Hidekaz Himaruya has postponed it (or shelved it altogether) himself.


 * The timing of this story would indicate that the WWII storyline has officially started, with the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany. However, the bulk of the World War-era stories in Hetalia volume 1 would chronologically take place after this, as they appear to take place in 1940 (as opposed to the main storyline in the webcomic version, which currently takes place in 1939 before the invasion of Poland).
