THE MOLOSSIA AND HIS PERSONALITY SYNOPSIS/DEEP DIVE I NEEDED TO MAKE SINCE I SEE THE MOST INACCURATE DEPICTIONS OF HIM ABOUT TOO MUCH TIMES
⚠️⚠️FAIR WARNING DO NOT MAKE UNINTELLIGIBLE DISCOURSE ON RELATIONSHIPS SHIPS OR FAMILIAL STATUS IF YOU HATE WHAT I SAY BASED ON THE CANON AND HOW FAMILY DYNAMICS WORK AND WHAT THEY ARE SCROLL AND BLOCK MY ASS, or do so, because i will block you instead ⚠️⚠️
(not UsUk, AmeMol, MolAer, Spamano, __cest, OR ANY OTHER RELATIONSHIPS LIKE THESE involving family or underage characters/older characters friendly, I do not like a single one of you, leave and no harassment on why I say this, I did warn you people, okay now disclaimer done and TIME TO MOLOSSIA DEEP DIVE)
okay, so for today's discussion, I will speak of molossia and his character and personality:
**His duality between his public defensive self and his true private self**
okay so we know hopefully that molossia is usually seen being defensive aka D.A. for defensive act, this is the version most people see, the D.A. is used on people who he is not familiar with/DOES NOT TRUST others easily. we literally see D.A. after we are shown T.S. or his true self for a literal PAGE in the manga before he gets his gel and puts on his tough self because literal STRANGERS entered his land without his prior knowledge lmao. so with that, his T.S. is a mirrored reflection (opposite portrayal) on what the Fandom sees him as, this version shows that when no one who is a stranger or untrustworthy people bother him, his persona changes into a more insecure, shy version that is very personal, a few examples is in a Christmas event where America enters molossias place and molossia didn't know it was America and thought it was sealand, so he has his D.A. on guard and surprises America as Alfred usually sees his T.S. more often than not (him and America are very close aka most likely relatives kinda like England raising America's just to abandon him but no America stays with molossia as his legal guardian/brother i believe) and molossia apologizes to America for that reaction before sealand pops his happy ass into the house.
from the translations from hetaarchives 2011 Christmas event with the panels:
"Mr. Molossia who can’t lift his head against America"
"T/N: Okay this is tricky. Molossia is saying the usual Ohayou gozaimasu that basically means Good morning, only in a very polite speech. Point is, you wouldn’t expect a character like Molossia to use the full humble form (I think America would say simple “Ohayou” in Japanese.) ]"
the second example is with him and Aerica, in chapter 497 or sooner/later chapters of world stars, he can be seen cleaning up a place with aerica in his T.S. persona, and he talks in a rather more polite way to aerica as they are best friends (America and Canada are implied brothers and are twins LOL and micronations are implied to be related to the host nation so by extension molossia and aerica are half siblings/brothers since yk Alfred and Matthew). and looking more into the personality of his T.S., we can infer that he is actually timid, polite, kinder, softer in actions overall-- takes the role of a mentor with other america based micronations (slowjamastan being one of them) to teach them the ways of micronations and respect, rather than with his D.A. self, this is how he is when he's with super close friends/bestfriends/family, in short his true self is a sweetheart at his core and has a defensive act for those he isn't the closest with.
(straight from chapter 438 from. hetascanalations I'll guys for being translators for the manga in the 2021 and beyond's era kudos to you guys):
he is super good with anything not human (his alien dog, plants that he grows, Aerica's floating smiley =) ball, like ik he takes really good care of living and non living things. yeah gang after all this on his personality, he would not do illegal things at all, he wouldn't side with horrible people and bullies, he himself would not be a high-school dropout, and would not be a horrible person overall like a bully, his defensive act is a way of hiding insecurities and vulnerability to others so he isn't being taken advantage of and pushed around, but also to seem tougher than he actually is (if you couldn't tell i love him so much he is my son)
ight so this is the cost of being a molossia/micronation fan (yeah us micronation fans already hear the trumpets of people who complain about hima's preference to add more micronations than to add most Latin and hispanic American, African, island, Yugoslavia, other Asian nations, yeah we know it sucks buns, we all gotta pull through for the future of the manga and fandom and quality is buns
