So my friend and I, Marissa, are both ADDICTED to a cute little comic strip called "Hetalia." The countries of the world are all people, and while there's not much of a plot, it's just...so CUTE, and it's filled to the brim with shounen-ai! ;D But at KawaKon, whenever we mentioned it, people just stared at us like we were insane. That's why we're looking for feedback before we sign up. Does anyone else read or watch Hetalia, and would anyone here want to come to the panel?

I'm trying to get a few other people on staff interested in Axis Powers. I absolutely adore APH *points to image in sig* and will happily attend a panel. I'm sure people will show up, after all, we all must eventually become one with Russia, right?

Okay then! A Hetalia panel we shall have. :3 Better send in the form first chance we get... LOL, how the heck are we gonna cover all the characters? xD THAT'S sure to take a while. Once question: at KK, I'm pretty sure they don't require people to be 18+ or anything to run a panel. Is it the same her? My friend and I are on the younger side (although we'll be presenting with a projector slide show type thing).

Not sure exactly what you mean, but there ARE a lot of characters. Judging from the LJ Hetalia comm's interests, there are about 26 countries that appear. We plan on introducing them all, however briefly. We'll just have to conserve our time, I guess.

Since the whole Korea-thing sending threatening letters about the show to the network, it's only on the web. D: Which should also be included in this APH panel since apperently the show is "offensive" *NOT* Also PAAASSSTA

My friend and I are on the younger side (although we'll be presenting with a projector slide show type thing). You don't have to be 18+ to run a panel. But you should probably note in your panel form that you'll be discussing shounen-ai to give those not in the know a fair warning.

Hetalia is pretty much impossible to discussus WITHOUT the shounen-ai. We'll put a warning in. Thanks for reminding us. We probably wouldn't have thought of it. Sadly, they are. Ah, well, we have plenty of manga to keep us going. My friend and I counted the characters today, btw...there are about 38, I think. xD We're only going to be hitting the ten that appear most, though, then quickly go over the rest.

Wikipedia says there's over 40 countries, but I only see 38 on the official list. I'd would totally fail at shaving that down to 10. Especially with my love of lesser important characters like Canada and Hungary xD

I'm actually quite interested in this series, and I plan to read it or watch it when I next get a chance. So I'll most likely attend this panel if it's happening.
