Hong Kong

Hong Kong (香港  Honkon) is a minor character in the series Axis Powers Hetalia. He represents the territory of Hong Kong (香港 Kyoukou).

Appearance


Hong Kong has choppy dark brown hair that comes down to his jaw, and lighter brown eyes. He wears a burgundy duangua with black trim and oversized sleeves, and dark brown trousers. His eyebrows are noticeably thicker than the other Asian characters, due to a curse put on him by England.

In an earlier design, he had a gold sash around his waist, and wore long white spats over his boots. In other early sketches, his duangua fastened down the front.

Personality And Interests
Little is known about Hong Kong, other than that he was under British control for many years and the property of Arthur, who cursed him to have thick eyebrows. It is said that one can't really tell what is on his mind, due to his lack of showing visible emotion.

He speaks in a mixture of Japanese and English, with a Gyaru-o dialect. Before appearing in the fake preview for Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 3 where he "promised" Yao he wouldn't draw explicit pictures anymore, he appeared in artwork for the series and was featured in the profile page of Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 2.

Hong Kong was under his control for many years, and was often scolded for lighting loud firecrackers, which would constantly startle Arthur. By the time Hong Kong returned to his "siblings", Arthur had caused his eyebrows to grow thick just like his.

Little has been revealed about their relationship, other than Hong Kong having been raised by him before he became British territory. The two were eventually reunited when Arthur's control ceased.

Trivia

 * Before his cameo in volume three of the published manga, Hong Kong's first speaking role was in the special drama CD Hetalia Fantasia where he acted as Yao's assistant.


 * It is believed that Hong Kong has some relationships with both America and Canada as they all were living with England for a large period of time, and bonded somewhat over England's terrible cooking. Though this hasn't been confirmed and Hong Kong having yet to meet Canada or America in either the anime or the manga, it would seem historically probable.
