I'm so sorry I took so long to come back to this ><" I'll try to be more diligent about this from now on.
I'm also really sorry about the constant change in style. I'm always really eager to try new things. The last page for example, I tried traditional inking...I think I'm gonna stick to digital until I get either a nicer scanner or more skills inking, whichever comes first. probably the scanner
Its a tug-of-war between "I want this to be really pretty like the doujinshis I see online by professionals" and "Its the story that matters, so get it rolling...".
I give you random Icey with headphones as apology?..//slapped
No random question this time. But I would appreciate feedback ~ :3 Actually scratch that, I beg for feedback ><"

Dragonheart is my favorite Nordic-based story on DA, and now your fan manga is my favorite comic! This is so amazingly awesome so please keep up the hard work!

That is such a compliment
Dragonheart is a pretty amazing story. The fact that you're putting that and my comic in the same sentence is a great honour ><
I shall continue the hard work! ><

I didn't think twice because I haven't felt so excited to keep reading a Hetalia story since Dragonheart and Dragonsight. Obsessing over Undertale fanfics doesn't help either haha

This is amazing. Most comics are about the main characters in Hetalia with seldom showings about the other characters, and even when they do they can be pretty short. I love how you depict them and how their reactions perfectly match their character. There's Denmark over reacting, Finland being confused and maybe a bit amused, Sweden acting calmly yet asking himself what the heck is going on, and Norway trying to protect Iceland and Iceland looking alarmed from either the mystery man or the fact Norway just tackled him. Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much for the support! ^^ Yess I noticed that there was a large gap in the hetalia fancomics sector that was begging to be filled XD. I do like that Himaruya seems to have been giving these guys more attention as of late, what with anime episodes and theme songs rolling out.
And yess, thank you for noticing that I do try to keep them in character as much as I can. I'm not very fond of when the characters (particularly the nordics) are depicted with personalities very different from the canon (although some depictions are very good and others are hilarious).

I read a depiction of Denmark being a complete Jack arse , stopped reading it because i didn't like his depiction. I get what your saying as well.

This is great. I love your take on the Nordics, and I love your drawing style <3
The only "criticism" I have is that I think Finland would actually be older than 800 years. He was young for a long time (technically Finland wouldn't have become an adult before somewhere between 1809-1917), and we have notions to Finland over 1000 years old. The name "Finland" has been in use for around 1000 years, and "the land of Finns/Fenns" is even older. There's even one around 2000 year-old document from Rome speaking about "Fenns up North" and though it is depatable if it refers to Finns or not, it would not be the only time Finns have been referred as Fenns in the older times, and the document does describe a lifestyle Finns would have had back then. Also by comparing Finnish to its closest language relatives (e.g. Ingrian and Estonian) and looking at what we know about languages and their development (e.g. Latin and Italian), it has been estimated that a language that could be called "Finnish" should have been in existance at least 3000 years, but even 5000-8000 years is theoretically possible - we will never know. People often forget that "Finland" has had many meanings both politically and geologically through time, but when talking with Hetalia terms, I'd say definitely more than 800 years old. Of course, from the name "Suomi" we can never know - we don't even know why or what the name originally meant or where it came from - but it is at least older than "Finland".

Thanks so much for all the information! You are evidently very passionate and well-informed of your heritage 
I did realize after uploading this that Finland is probably far older than 800 years old and I'm ashamed to say I only chose the number because it was "well-rounded" for the dialogue... "OTL If even Iceland has existed for about 1000 years, "Finland" is probably older than that. I do agree with you, sometimes it can be tricky deciding how "old" a nation really is. Humans moved into the area I think about 40, 000 years ago, when they really started to collaborate and separate into a nation is absolutely up for debate, and when Finn/Fenn identity emerged is even harder to decide.
Thank you again for all the information

Ah, no problem. I'm actually majoring in history at the University and I'm currently studying Finland's history, so that is how I know this stuff
Well, it wasn't disturbing and the point was still made: Finland is too old to be stressed like that xD So don't worry about it. Actually humans came to Finland some 10 000 years ago when the ice left after the Ice Age, but I believe they've found some evidence dating over 40 000 years that there might have been someone here back then - most likely Neanderthals. But during Ice Age no one really lived in Finland because it was under 2-5 km of ice, so the start of the modern civilization came after the ice reatreated. However, I'm not looking that much into the prehistoric era, so my knowledge about that is quite limited.
Don't take me too seriously, I have a bad habit of correcting these things. At least you didn't make any of the most common mistakes, and they would probably be 1) Scandinavia - Finland is not part of it. 2) Vikings - Finns weren't vikings. 3) Norse gods - the Finns had their own religion and never believed in the Norse gods. I'd be doing nothing but being on the internet if I wanted to correct all of those...
You are doing a very good job, and I'm taken that you are that interested in the history of these countries (I'm assuming you are interested in the rest of the Nordics as well). Thank you for being interested, it makes me hope that I'm actually not studying information no one wants to know - people tell me to shut up about it all the time. I just find it so fascinating how many misconceptions and "old" ideas that aren't that old at all there are.

I've figured out a reason for Sweden's glare! He has a poor eyesight, and his glasses aren't good enough, so he has to squint to see something!

Jipii Best just before Christmas present ever! This makes so much easier to finish my drawings that I promised to make for my friends.
I was at job when I read this and I was trying to keep my laugh as quite as possible. Poorly. XD
This is so great! Last picture especially. What in a world... And your comic goes on so swimmingly that it's just eye candy go through all the pictures. I wish I could do that. (practice practice) And last picture is so great. I love it.
And btw, poor Fin. Even that his emotional collapsing made me laugh. That God dam Niinistö! (Finlands president) He is going get some back massage from me! (*Evil laugh*)
But thank you so much for updating! And Hyvää joulua! (Merry Christmas!)
