part 353 whalers on the moon

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

this or that character should be cooler/more intelligent/more serious

it's like people don't know it's a comedy series

99% of the humor comes from the fact that all the characters are dumbass dorklets, it's the freaking point

It's particularly annoying when someone feels the need to give their own country ALL THE GOOD, COMPETENT TRAITS and attempt to "validate" it by saying stuff like "well there are famous artists from my country so my country should be good at art, and there are famous mathematicians from my country so my country should be good at math, and such and such was invented in my country so my country is a scientific genius, and there are immigrants in my country so OBVIOUSLY my country knows every other country's language, and and and and"

Jesus, way to ruin a formerly likable and endearing character

are you sure, context is kind of 100% horrible and will make you as pissed as me

here reuters article which manages to keep a neutral tone, though I don't get why they make xenophobic asshole Salvini look so good

I love Zaria's Defeat Of Man. The art's the best I've ever seen in a doujinshi, the characters are all IC, even the side characters, and I just love rereading it.

I love doujinshi, even though my Japanese is so bad that I can barely read a word here and another there. But I just love looking at the pictures and holding the books in my hands.

I mostly buy Germancest because it provides me with everything I want: either history or well-drawn smut with my kinks. I also buy every Prumano book that comes out, which is about five books a year or so.

It's kind of a shame that the doujinshi-producing side of the fandom has shrunk so much, at least when it comes to pairings and characters I like. I miss the kind of epic historical doujins that used to come out, such as Adler des Schlachtfeldes, Die nationale urlandschaft des Sonnenunterganges or The Mass. These days, most books seem to be gag comedy, generic sex or the characters just hanging out in modern days. Kind of similar to the problems people complain in the fanfic threads. I'm convinced the reason is that canon has also moved away from more historical content and therefore doesn't provide the same kind of inspiration and material to work with as it used to.

Does anyone have a collection post? I remember seeing a few in the Hetalia sales community back in the day and recently on Tumblr and I always love looking at what other people have, especially if it's stuff I don't collect myself because I'm much less familiar with it. Here's mine: http://killerorange87.dreamwidth.org/454.html
