ATTENTION GIANT RABID FANBASE

Thu Jul 2, 2009, 8:22 AM
  • Mood: Neutral
  • Reading: Not Hetalia
  • Watching: 5D's 65 yay
  • Playing: Twilight Princess
  • Drinking: Tea
You might want to sit down for this news: I don't like Hetalia.

Shocking, right? Next I'll be saying something completely bizarre like I didn't enjoy Kingdom Hearts either :| I didn't like it, in case that wasn't apparent.

It's probably too late to say this now, but please don't flame me. I'm sorry about all the sarcasm, but this isn't a rant about how the fandom sucks and everyone who likes it is stupid. I wouldn't say something ridiculous like that. This is just forewarning to people not to recommend the series to me anymore, please; and it's so popular that every second person I talk to is probably going to do just that.

I'm a bit frustrated.

I wasn't really interested to begin with, but my dear beloved *Hiita-hime insisted I read it. And you know she's dedicated, she put up with my bitching and whining the whole time XD

Here's why I'm so frustrated. In third-person and chronological order XD

1) Claire downloads zip of the collected comic strips. IT TAKES TWO HOURS. Claire had been planning to go to sleep prior to starting this download.
2) Claire has to find, download and install a program to extract the zip files, since there wasn't one on this computer.
3) Claire spends a further two hours reading the contents of the "main storyline" chapter.
4) Claire's worst subject in school was history, followed by geography. Claire DOESN'T GET ANY OF THE JOKES (except "Italy sucks lol!). She also has trouble telling most of the characters apart.
5) Claire despairs at getting through the hundreds of folders of content still left. *Hiita-hime suggests she watch the anime instead. Claire clicks the link she provides.
6) Claire's computer reacts with "HOLY SHIT VIRUSES!!!11one1" Firefox reacts by crashing. Claire tries to fix things.
7) Claire finds nothing helpful on Youtube. Claire gives up.


TL;DR: I'M PRETTY SURE IT WASN'T MEANT TO BE XD But you can't say I didn't try.

Perhaps if Hetalia had fixed the economy, done my taxes and cured cancer the way I'd been lead to believe it would, it would've been worth all the frustration.


P.S. *Hiita-hime, I'm not annoyed with you or anything, I still love you :3

I SOUND LIKE THE HARBINGER OF DOOM IN THIS JOURNAL
i understand if you hate me despite you saying you don't 'OTL

And, don't worry: at least you had a look at it and decided you didn't like it. I know people - no names, no names - that automatically decide "BIG FANBASE = RETARDED FANS = I HATE IT."

I still feel like shit for ruining your computer. >:

Dang... so sorry you don't like Hetalia... but I'm never going to push you on it, because some people I know on MyAnimeList are really picky just because of the genre of stories... Seriously...

Lol, people getting upset because attempts to turn you to Hetalia failed. :laughing:...

I have ALL of the above problems with it, and I'm not afraid to admit it. It's just not a very good anime.

NO, YOU ARE THE HARBINGER OF AWESOME :heart: How come you told me to read Hetalia but you've never said "hey Claire why don't you get a copy of Assassin's Creed too"? AM I NOT WORTHY? T_T

The computer is fine, nothing happened to it.

I find it strange that some people seem to actually think everybody should like the same things they do.

It was just bizarre enough to seem like a good idea, but yeah--not actually very interesting.
