[dubtalia-ap.livejournal.com]

Excited for Hetalia: The Beautiful World coming up next week? Good news, Funimation will have a Winter Simulcast of the series starting at the end of this month!

Here is a link to the news. Some countries may not be able to view this, just a heads up. Only available in North America.

From the news on Funimation reads here:

We've saved the best for last. Hetalia: The Beautiful World will
round out our winter simulcasts. That's right, the boys are back with
Season 5, and it looks like it's gonna get even more ridiculous.

synopsis:

The Allied guys and Axis boys are back in Hetalia: The Beautiful World!
It’s Season 5. As in high-five! And when we high-five, a tiny kitten
appears with a wee banjo! And he’s playing a song about a cupcake and
it’s freaking adorable! But then Prussia shows up and yells at the
kitten. But the kitten doesn’t get sad, because, dude… Claaaassic
Prussia.

Look for Hetalia: The Beautiful World to begin simulcasting at the end of January. Go to http://www.funimation.com/hetalia for more information.

Here's the official English subtitled trailer for Season 5!

Maybe by next week, exactly on January 25th, they will put up the first English Subtitled episode of Hetalia: The Beautiful World, but I'm probably too excited to think so much ahead.

I kind of agree...the new animation is so serious looking compared to the old stuff, (and also a little 2-D,) and I'm afraid the silliness whimsy of the voices wont quite fit. Even in the japanese version, it feels weird. :/
I'm still glad about the new style though. :)

They might be a little serious in the English Dub. The crew admits that when they worked on Paint it White, it did have a story that they try to make it serious while keep the funny stuff as the series originally started.
