Wow! I haven't posted in like...forever. I've got a lot of stuff to cover, so bear with me and I'll probably get things out gradually (if I'm not too distracted by World of Warcraft, NaNoWriMo, or just being plain lazy.)
Alright, first off! I'll start with the blog's usual dosage of anime. It would seem that Puppet-chan (among others) has gotten me into this new anime. It's kind of on the cute side, the episodes (with my experience) can only be found online, they're only an estimated five minutes long or so, and they're not dubbed yet. But it's pretty humorous and a fun way of seeing history and culture with countries of the world being literally personified, somewhat through history and culture and somewhat through stereotype. And along with friendships and rivals and siblings and such between countries, I believe there are even characters that are 'divorced' due to the countries having a history of dividing with each other.
This anime I speak of is called Hetalia.
I'll be honest, I haven't really gotten too far into it-only the first several episodes-but that's more so due to time constraints and such more than anything. I have seen amusing clips of later episodes. The series starts off with Italy and the Holy Roman Empire, and then sort of breezes through the first world war in the first few episodes and moves on to focus on the second (which I think is actually much longer than the first world war, partially due to so many different new countries [America! XD And Russia and Japan...] making their debut.
So anyway, I can give a link to the site that I've been watching them on, but I think I'll actually do that a bit later. For now (and at least as long as it's on before youtube takes it down -.-;; ), here is episode one!
