[Mod Post] A reminder, a few updates, and a brand new FAQ is on the way!

[tarafishes]

Yo! Me again with an update or two and a reminder, and something--not new, but redone!

Comments

It would! Apparently she'd insisted on it being 300x300, but we're gonna see if we can get it changed anyway, since it wouldn't hurt anybody or the layout. And, no problem! Actually, the character ones have been there a while, but I realized that LJ doens't let anyone see them before they're used. . .which makes no sense. So I had to announce and use them before they'd pop up. /o\

Will there be a new season of the anime?
We don't know. Or, I don't personally--I think everyone else pays more attention to it than I do, but I'm not sure DEEN's lost the rights to it yet? Or does that only work that way with dubbing the anime/translating the manga. . . . In any case, we don't know, but it doesn't seem very likely. If there will be one, they'd hear news about it on this comm.

Who are the newest countries?
I could keep this updated, so it doesn't matter if it changes! At the moment, the newest are
Kugelmugel
The Principality of Hutt River
Molossia
The Republic of Niko Niko
India
Romania
Macau
Hesse
Bulgaria might count except he's not new-new, it's just only recently that he's been shown properly.

Why hasn't Himaruya updated his blog/site lately?
Due to lack of updates from him, we don't actually know why. But it's presumably because he's so busy with things! He has lots of projects and such off of his site and even other manga he works on, so he has lots on his plate.
I don't quite remember the bit about Gentosha? D: I think I remember someone saying that they said he was losing fans because of lack of updates and they'd have him start updating again or something, if that's what you mean. But I have a bad memory, as usual.
But, yeah, we don't know and all we have is speculation. But he's probably okay.

What kind of dog is Hanatamago?
Himaruya's never said, actually. So she has no canonical species. ;3;

(Random questions are okey! As long as they're relevant, I guess!)

Oh, I also still get the "Is HRE actually Germany?" question now and then, so definitely keep that there.

You might want to add in that Luxembourg and Tonga made cameos recently, but haven't been shown in full (or something like that).

*And of course there's Ladonia

There's a Rumors and Misconceptions page on the Hetalia wiki that is pretty outdated. I'm gonna try and get off my ass this weekend and clean up/update it if that helps.

[tarafishes]

Ladonia's made a cameo appearance, though. We know what he looks like.

That'd be cool, though! /o/

[fh14]

Oh I know I just mean he was absent from the list in the first post.

[tarafishes]

Oh. I was confused because you replied to her and not me, so I didn't know what you meant /o\ My bad!
