i hate david tennant for taking two of the goofiest fictional men on the planet and making me feel sad things about them against my will. the audacity of the man.
like neither of these characters should be anything except objectively funny and yet thanks to mr tennant i experience a vague sense of victorian melancholia that i did not ask for whenever i see content for them and that just will not stand
to be fair i wrote explicit harry potter fanfic as an 11 yr old so it’s a trade off of two evils really
Yeah but at least harry potter has the (wizard) nazis as the bad guys instead of making them uwu protagonists
Anonymous asked: What was Hetalia even about?? I never watched it but my friend told me it was about the countries but ppl??? Do u know anything? Bc ppl on here seem to hate it
so full disclosure as you may or may not know i didn’t actually watch anime like, as something that i could enjoy until about two years ago (i’m 22). so when like…weeb shit was going down in middle & high school, i was blissfully unaware of different anime discourse going on at the time. did i harass the anime club president? yes but that’s because he was a dick who’d watch ecchi and then act like irl PDA was horrible. idk man i just crashed the club for snacks and got called a tsundere or whatever the fuck
anyway. moving on.
from what i’ve gathered, hetalia is an anime/manga about humanized countries. which is cool except not because it’s very much based on stereotypes and just….not great. i mean it’s probably okay, to each ones own, but i’m like, an adult, so i try to consume content that actually makes me happy lol
on top of sterotyped personifications of countries they essentially woobiefy the axis powers of WWII by essentially having nazi germany be basically team rocket.
