Canada's the big country sitting on top of America—massive landlewise, but way fewer people. He's basically America's forgotten older or younger sibling (nobody's really sure which), and that relationship defines him. America's chaotic energy means Canada constantly ends up dealing with the fallout, getting mistaken for his brother by literally everyone, and taking hits meant for him. He once spent three solid hours listing all of America's flaws and actually made him cry, but despite that kind of passive-aggressive frustration, they genuinely care about each other. His appearance is pretty distinctive: blonde hair with orangish tips and violet eyes, though he's usually drawn with dark blue eyes instead. The anime went with darker blonde hair, closer to America's shade. He's got this long, curly ahoge down the middle of his head. Facially, he and America look so similar that other nations constantly mix them up—especially Cuba, who's beaten him up more than once by mistake, then felt guilty enough to buy him ice cream. Personality-wise, he's the opposite of his rowdy brother. Canada's gentle, soft-hearted, shy, and easygoing, though apparently he's secretly a fierce fighter despite hating violence. He loves ice cream (a shared passion with Cuba), and he'll wear maple leaf gear constantly, partly to show pride in his country and partly just to avoid being confused for America. He's got a pet bear named Kumajirou-san that he's had forever, but here's the weird thing—neither of them actually knows the other's name. The toughest part of being Canada? Being invisible. In meetings, in conversations, in the room itself—he's just. not there. People genuinely forget he exists.
