Plot Summary

Italian Hand-Grenade

Germany gives Italy a demonstration on how to properly throw a hand grenade. But instead of throwing the actual grenade, Italy throws the pin (while holding the grenade with his mouth), much to the horror of Germany...

England's Egg

England announces the creation of a hard-boiled egg, but as he goes into the explanation, America cracks an egg on his head and eats it, while France does the same.

Eggland

England announces another invention of his: Bubbling beer. But before he can explain its creation, France cracks him over the head with a mug of beer, causing a fight to break out between the two of them as China looks on, holding his panda (as he comments on how "peaceful" the Allies are).

America's Cleaning Of The Storage

America, in a voiceover, narrates how he tried to clean out his storage room, but that it reawakened memories of both good times and bad. Shots from the segment in Episode 17 are shown.

America realizes the significance of the scratched musket, as a title card for the Revolutionary War (1775-1783) flashes by, along with a shot of a younger America holding the musket as the scene segues into a flashback:

England and America stand on a battlefield, as America informs him that he wants freedom, that he's no longer his child or baby brother, and that he will secede. England charges at him with his musket and bayonet, which America blocks with his own, though it is sent flying.

England approaches the disarmed America, pointing the blade of the bayonet at his head, as he mentions that his incompetence is outstanding. The other American soldiers prepare their guns to fire on England, but he hesitates and finds himself unable to shoot America. He drops his musket, and falls to his knees on the ground, breaking down in tears.

America watches England cry on the ground, as he briefly flashes back to a childhood memory where the two of them held hands as they went home together. He stares down at England on the battlefield, mentioning that he used to be so big.

Back in the present day, Lithuania (who has finished making coffee) finds America standing outside with a sad look on his face (presumably, he had been crying). America explains that the storage room was so filled with trash and dust, that he couldn't get any cleaning done. Lithuania offers him the coffee.

As they drink, America mentions that he wound up not being able to throw anything away due to the memories, and the he feels like he's become an old man. However, Lithuania says that he's simply grown up. A final shot of the toy soldier is shown, with the caption "End".

Teaser

Lithuania comes across the old toy soldier, as he continues to clean the house. As he picks it up and mentions how "cute" it is, a panicking America screams that England is coming and for him to hide it quickly.

Trivia

  • The first and second segments were originally from the "Extra Stories". America's Cleaning Of The Storage was also originally an Extra Story, but was reprinted in Hetalia: Axis Powers volume 1.
  • In the original hand-grenade strip, Italy explains that he'll never know when his "Red Devil" grenade will explode, as a footnote is shown about Italian grenades and their unpredictability.
  • This episode ran 5 minutes and 30 seconds in its original Animate.TV broadcast, due to an advert for the third Hetalia Character CD.
