Haha, yes. They're from a manga/anime called Axis Powers: Hetalia, which essentially personifies various countries, and builds scenarios from history and a country's culture. The story jumps from various historical points, but it's central arc is often focused on WW2 and Italy. It's quite amusing, I think you'd like it. Germany and Russia are pretty awesome, and America is hilarious. The episodes are only 5 minutes each and up on YouTube. Here's the first one.
It was a tough call though, as I'm fairly invested in Prussia/Hungary too. Austria just pulled through because he is a class act. :D
Ah, you should watch it! It's fairly good, but I was slightly annoyed by the liberties taken and its focus being more on religion/religious conflict than on Hypatia. But seeing as I love Hypatia, I couldn't rate it any less. Yes, I only just saw The Little Mermaid last week (terrible, I know). It was one of the few Disney films I had yet to see for some reason.
Haha, I seem to recall you mentioning that about Eric. I think it's cute!
Oh gosh, Fringe. I'm still up to some early episode at the start of season 2. Of course, The Prince always deserves a reread!
Thanks! I'm still tweaking with it though and thinking of things to add. But really it was yours which inspired me, so thank you!
Wow, that sounds interesting. I'm going to give that a try--although probably not today because I have to cram for when school resumes on Tuesday, haha.
And I have to read up on Hypatia. I actually don't know much about her. I just saw a very short review of the movie in a magazine and thought I'd download it.
There's a live-action version of The Little Mermaid that's supposedly in the works. But they're sticking to the original, depressing story. Idk how they're going to film it, though. Out of curiosity, who's your favorite Disney princess?
I haven't seen the last four or so episodes of Fringe, actually...Haha, I was going to mention something about this season that I liked but then I realized that would be a spoiler for you.
Yours is definitely more elegant than mine! Where did you get the little icons for the manga and anime stuff?
You're seriously back at school? That's terrible; they should give you a longer break.
Interesting to hear about a live-action Little Mermaid movie, I'm curious as to who they'll cast. And I suspect there will be a lot of CGI abuse. As for my favourite Disney princess, it has to be Mulan, followed by Jasmine. Who's yours?
I promise I'll catch up with Fringe as soon as I can!
Aw, thank you. The icons are just text symbols. This site here has a lot. :)
