Hetalia: Axis Powers is a “comedic historical manga with anthropomorphic characters representing countries” drawn by Kazuya Himaruya. Characters include Italy, Germany, Japan and others. Exchanges between the characters along the lines of events in world history and according to their national identity play out in an amusing fashion.

The new shirts by Mars16 feature the Allied powers of the United States, the United Kingdom and France, and are printed with their motto, “I AM HERO!” The lineup of three designs includes the USA with a bald eagle, the country’s national bird; the United Kingdom with the Royal Coat of Arms printed on the front; and France with a graphic and its international country code, "33."

Sizes are XS, S, M, L and LL, and the T-shirts are priced at 3,150 yen each.
