According to Anime News Network, the Hetalia World Stars anime will have the same cast, director, character designer and series script supervisor as before, and Studio DEEN is back to produce it.
After originally starting as a webcomic, Hetalia went on to be a professionally published manga that spun off into a whole franchise that includes animation. Funimation has been in charge of the anime in North America.
