The thirty-fifth episode of Axis Powers Hetalia was broadcast on September 21st, 2009. It adapts the stories Fly, Canada-san, Fly! and France-nii-chan and the Olympian Romance from volume 2 of the published manga.

The sub of this episode has not been released and this summary relies on the RAW version and the original webcomics. Please edit it when the episode is subbed.

Fly, Canada-san, Fly! (Part 1)

UK, Japan, America, France, Russia, Italy and Germany are ready to start the G8 meeting.... but there's someone missing!

America reminds UK that he believes in 'things-that-aren't-really-there' and tries to convince him it's his imagination. UK counts them off, but there's only 7 nations! All the nations start wondering who is missing... when someone bursts through the door. It's Canada, and he's sorry for being late to the G8 meeting...

...It looks like no one knew he was missing, but Japan tells Canada that 'they were all waiting for him', which seems to make Canada happy.

France-niichan and the Olympian Romance

France takes a walk trying to clear his mind of Germany, the two Italies, UK and America when he stumbles upon someone digging...

It's Greece, and he's digging about his backyard for things his mother (Ancient Greece) left behind. He starts telling France about his backyard and the Olympics, but France doesn't seem very interested. That is, until Greece tells him about the Olympics and how NAKED MEN WRESTLE.

France suddenly loves the Olympics! He's so excited he tells the other nations about it.

France stands around (naked, from the chest up... so far) admiring the Olympic stadium.

UK is the first to arrive (clothed) and screams at France's nudity. We see France's bum and UK asks what the hell he is doing standing around naked. France turns around (his trademark rose replaced by a fig leaf) and tells UK that he's supposed to be naked, while proceeding to walk over and start taking off UK's clothes.

UK resists as much as he can but France seems to be enjoying it all too much until a bullet whizzes by. Everything stops as Switzerland comes into the picture, very displeased with France's shamelessness.

France is then dragged off by a police man, still trying to plead his case of 'but I'm meant to be naked'.

Fly, Canada-san, Fly! (Part 2 - after the credits)

Making his debut anime appearance, Cuba torments Canada who he mistakes for America.

Canada, upset (uttering a 'Maple') tells Cuba he is not America.

Cuba is confused so Canada goes into a passionate rant into how he is not America.

Cuba is still not convinced and the episode ends with Canada terrified.

Trivia

• This episode features a new eyecatch, with the featured character being Canada.
• In the original webcomic, France's front is covered by his trademark rose instead of the fig leaf used in this episode.
• In the original strips, after France tells everyone about the Olypmics, Italy and Finland seems to like the idea, while others are a bit hesitant. This was left out of the anime episode.
• After Cuba torments Canada, he later comes back to apologise and make a peace offering of ice cream with an invitation to his country. When Canada visits (with a tacky Hawaiian shirt) Cuba mistakes him for America again. This was left out of this episode and it is yet to be confirmed if it will be shown at all.
