Roderich Edelstein is a character in the series Axis Powers Hetalia. He represents the country Austria (オーストリア,Osutoria).

Appearance

He has somewhat wavy brown hair, with a wild strand that represents Mariazell . He wears glasses, a long navy blue coat with a white cravat, and black pants (colored tan in some earlier artwork). Roderich also has a mole on his face, which acts as an erogenous zone for him.

Personality And Interests

He is described as a well-spoken, young master type, who was initially aloof until he was saddled with too many burdens. He gives higher priority to his hobbies rather than his work, and is more optimistic and quiet in comparison to Ludwig who is more serious and work-orientated. His interests are art, music (the piano in particular), and cake.

Relationships

Elizabeta Héderváry (Hungary)

Main Article: Elizabeta Héderváry

Roderich's girlfriend, at one point his wife. In the compromise they made when they were married, they promised that they would support each other in war. The two are still rather close, despite the dissolution of their marriage.

As children, he was often beaten up and defeated by her when it came to wars, but when they got older, she wound up becoming his servant when they were both under the rule of Holy Roman Empire.

Vash Zwingli (Switzerland)

Main Article: Vash Zwingli

A former childhood friend of Roderich's. In their youth, they were close, but Roderich was weak and unable to fight as well as Vash expected him to, and had to be bailed out when he'd get beaten up in war.

They eventually grew apart, and Vash denies that the two of them ever used to be friends.

In the Anime

Roderich made a very brief appearance during the Chibitalia segment in Episode 02 as one of four characters kicking Chibitalia in the air. In Episode 04, he gained control over and made Chibitalia as his servant. In Episode 06, we see an adult Austria for the first time. He complains to Ludwig that having Feliciano was a bad move and that he is mass-producing white flags as they speak. To express his anger, he played a piano piece from Chopin.

In the second half of the episode, Ludwig states that he has been living at his house. Also during the second half, Roderich complains at Ludwig to stop throwing away his underwear (because they are still wearable), but Ludwig refuses to wear them because of the holes in them. In the end, he ended up wearing the underwear after Roderich patched them up.

Roderich is later seen in the checkout line in Episode 14, and becomes frustrated at the amount of time that Antonio is taking to do his job.
