Episode 02

The second episode of Axis Powers Hetalia was broadcast on January 30th, 2009, further adapting "Prologue" and "Chibitalia".

Plot Summary
The episode picks up where the post-credits scene cliffhanger left off, with Germany staring at the crate of tomatoes.

WWI
Germany opens the crate of tomatoes, despite the "crate"'s protest. A frightened and tearful North Italy emerges, begging Germany not to kill him. Germany believes that Italy's dense attitude is all an act, however, since Ancient Rome was a powerful warrior. However, when Italy falls and can't get up, Germany finds himself rethinking that.

Chibitalia Pt.2
The Holy Roman Empire still wants Chibitalia to be one with him, and faces off against France, while Spain offers Chibitalia some churros. We learn at one point, both halves of Italy lived in peace. However, both were very useless and wound up literally kicked around by the other nations (France, Austria, Spain, and Holy Roman Empire), who kept taking pieces of their land and culture for themselves.

WWI pt.2
Germany is successful in capturing Italy, only to find that the other man doesn't seem to mind being held prisoner. He attempts to let him go free, only for Italy to come back after talking to a bunch of girls.
