edited October 2024 in Social Groups
So, today I decided something: I just changed my major to Social Studies Education, and since I'm going to teach History, I decided that we will watch Hetalia in the history class I teach! I bet you guys all want me to teach your kids history!

    Yes! Omgosh.

    I got my mom to watch Hetalia and she said, "I wish they had something like this for math (she's a retired geometry teacher). I'm actually learning something.'' XD

    I love this anime!! A lot of people bash it because of the stereotypes, but I think that was supposed to be satire. I like satire.

    I like satire, too. ;o

    Also, I ship Germany and Italy like there's no tomorrow.

    At first I was kinda annoyed by Hetalia because I thought that Spain's obsession with tomatoes was a little exaggerated. (I'm Spanish-American.)

    But then I realized that I was eating gazpacho with a side of pisto. (Both are dishes made mostly with tomatoes.) After harvesting a bunch of tomatoes from my garden... which had only tomatoes, in 5 different varieties.


    .. And then I accepted that stereotypes are sometimes rooted in truth.

    well Hetalia helped me in History...
    The only problem is the rating XD
    They say some...pretty bad things. And things implied too XD;;

    Off-topic: I LOVE GAZPACHO (especially white gazpacho)! . . . I think I have a thread idea.

    yeah, I think all of them are exaggerated, I think that's what is supposed to be funny about it. After all, if you can't laugh at who you are, then you're doing it wrong!

    I absolutely love Russia! ;__; I love his character Design so much, and I feel so lame but i've even cosplayed a female version of him XD

    He had me hooked on him when I saw him jumping out of the plane shouting 'Vodkaaaaa'.
