"so why does nobody ship russia x turkey. like i swear there must be a secret reason cuz i never see it"

because they didn't interact in canon

Lame. Weak and lame. Back in my day you shipped characters who weren't even in the same universe. There is no excuse. Ship everyone. Ship them all

I had a crush on a boy who just so happened to have blonde hair and glasses and I was east asian with the dora haircut so I would save fanart of america x nyo japan onto my crusty iphone and laptop and pretend it was fanart of us... this was in middle school by the way. How much aura do I lost from this?

You have lost 2,000 aura from this, sadly. It's critical. But I respect the dedication. Absolutely iconic cringe. So you gain 200 back.

RUSSIA FAKES HIS VOICE JUST TO APPEAR MORE FRIENDLY TO THE OTHER COUNTRIES I JUST CAN'T FUCKING PROVE IT. IT'S LITERALLY GIVING A CAT MIMICKING BIRD NOISES JUST SO IT CAN LOOK MORE NONTHREATENING I CAN'T JUST FUCKING PROVE IT!!!!! *I yell as a bunch of bodyguards drag me to my asylum room*

It's in his Marukaite Chikyuu. So, yes, it's canon that he does this. It's provable.

When he goes through saying Marukaite Chikyuu for the third refrain, it starts off with his pretending voice, then slips into a transitional voice, then it's his real voice before he JUMPS RIGHT BACK to the cheery one to sing "boku wa Ro-shi-a!"

Anyway, yeah. It's entirely fake. He's doing it to disarm others, and it's canon.

I’ve noticed that Belarusians hetalians prefer Lithuania x Belarus over Russia x Belarus (or from what I’ve observed over the years) but maybe the preferences changed over time, dunno

Loved the fanarts they did back in the 2020-2021 Belarusian protests

For good reason.

Did you know that one of the symbols for Belarusian liberation is a coat of arms from the Grand Duchy?

Lithuania has been a strong, vocal supporter of Belarusian sovereignty for a long time.

I'm not saying that people can't ship whatever, but LietBela SHOULD be the more popular ship for Belarus. At least more popular than the fucking travesty that is RusBela.

I don't like the feminization of china, at all. :( It just feel's really iffy considering the history chinese women have gone through

Not to devalue your point, because I don't disagree, but I think it's already iffy even without that history. In canon, the "joke" is frequently that China is being emasculated; femininity as a character flaw. This isn't really seen with the few other female characters in Hetalia because, poorly written as they are for other reasons, he's being targeted by these jokes specifically because he's a man.

The history with both Chinese women and men and their treatment throughout history and portrayal in Japanese and western media is just the cherry on top of the shit cake that pushes him into the territory of racial caricature.

If France and England had a baby England would be the one who’s pregnant and give it fetal alcohol syndrome

Either of them being pregnant would give the infant FAS, let's be fucking real. They'd both smoke and drink the whole time. That child would be lucky to survive the pregnancy LMFAO

“fRanCe ToPs EnGlAnd!”

“EnGlaNd ToPs FrAnCe!”

Silence. England and France are both tops who fight for dominance. Trust me, they broke 3 beds doing it and had to switch to using a mattress.

In the 2pverse, they’re both bottoms who argue about who gets to receive./joke

Accurate. Good. I agree. Bottoms should be made to suffer over who has to take their turn trying to top first

Ragebait where?😭 Seychelles is lit not black, she’s Latina at most LMAO her skin is light her hair is straight and on top of that she has a French accent let’s be honest who’s looking at that bitch and thinking “oh yeah she’s black for sure”

This is competing to be one of the stupidest submissions we've ever received.

There's so much to unpack here, so let's start:

Firstly, you're applying simplistic American racial categorization to an East African nation. Race is made-up, unscientific garbage and distinctly American nonsense racial categorization like "Latina" has no place in a discussion about whether or not Seychelles is black.

Are black people supposed to look or sound a certain way according to you?

There's something to be said about how Himaruya gives almost every character that comes from a nation with a wide range of skin tones and hair types the lightest possible skin and the straightest possible hair and avoids drawing textured hair like the plague, but this ain't it.
