Blog comics and pictures moved to the main site and a Denmark and Norway comic!

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

The latest blog post doodles and comics are now also located here. Himaruya has also added a new comic, including Denmark and Norway!

The old comics:
First Turkey And The EU comic
Second Turkey And The EU comic
Mastermind Germany EU comic
Norwegian Butter Crisis chibi

Here's the new chibi doodle, for a preview, in which Norway is Christmas shopping. Or something. The text beneath the comic says "Norwegian Butter Crisis!" so we're probably still on that topic! Is it hard to have Christmas without butter. . . ?
Translation and scanlation by lost_hitsu! Minor-major correction made by aselav



The Norwegian butter crisis! Because of the recently popular diet methods,
the demand for butter got so large that it practically disappeared
from shops, as the news from everywhere informed.

But then Denmark came with the "Let's save Norway's Christmas!" plan,
and offered butter support free of charge.

Since it's so cold in the Nordic countries, it isn't surprising that
the calorie intake there is rather high, so high in fact that it can
put to shame even a calorie imperium like America. Adding butter alone
can possibly help with the digestion.
Something that probably won't be a good idea in warmer countries....

I have no idea what's going on, but I feel like 'poor Norway' will probably end up being appropriate.

EXCUSE ME BUT DENMARK/NORWAY INTERACTION AJFKADHGJKLDAHGJKLHAD
/calms down.
I'm guessing butter's a big thing in Norway.

Give me a moment and I'll provide the scanlation.

(last senence is a note about Denmark's Ibaraki dialect that was presumably useful only for the translator)

[shiny-pachirisu.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[shiny-pachirisu.livejournal.com]

Oh Denmark, you are such an awesome idiot XD And Norway has an epic scarf and coat combination :P

[boo-sagara.livejournal.com]

Those two are so funny together!

And speaking of temperature and food, I'd give anything for an ice cream in this minute -__-'... My city is not by far the hottest of my country, but the temperature right now is about 32°C, I'm in the office, tomorrow is my last day before vacation and I'm melting here x'D!!!

And I can't wait for Christmas event ~

[yuuago]

So Norway bakes, eh. How cute! (I bet it's all delicious.)
Well, the both of them are cute. Oh, Norway. Oh, Denmark.

I love this. :D It really, really made my day, ah...!

[pixelmicrocat.livejournal.com]

GUYS.
I DIDN'T NOTICE UNTIL NOW.
BUT NO MORE SUBJECT LINE = GOODBYE KINK-MEME
ALSO NO MORE PREVIEW OPTION FOR ANYONE D:

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

There's a workaround! (http://stoppedhiding.livejournal.com/1903.html) (Two, actually (http://stardustcities.tumblr.com/post/14556936645/a-subject-line-fix-for-livejournal-kink-memes).) So if someone could tell the kink meme mod to change the layout or just use custom comment pages, everything'll work again sort of like it used to.

First. YES DENMARK/NORWAY!

Second, Hima-papa's art really is improving isn't it? It's really beautiful, at least more than before

[icelilly]

OMG NORDICS!!! <3 I swear, these guys get cuter and cuter every time Himaruya draws them (as if they couldn't get any cuter than before!).

On another note, the way he drew Norway in the second panel... you can really see the resemblance between him and Iceland. Just look at that face and hair!

[sparklishh.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy that he's showing some more love for the nordics!

And I KNOW RIGHT? I find that they have a very similar flustered expression! XD

[cyrocyro.livejournal.com]

Busy squealing because Norway and Denmark are around.

Is it bad how much I laugh at the butter black marker developing in Norway?

[the-time-master.livejournal.com]

NORWAY LOVE HIM ALREADY JESUS CHRIST

[snowsniper.livejournal.com]

Oh Norway, keep being awesome!

Nnng I hope there's going to be more Norway-Denmark interactions |D

[pinkabbestia.livejournal.com]

XDDDDDD very funny! Poor Norway! What kind of diet are Norwegians doing? Butter make fat... boh.
I've read that there's a fat tax in Denmark on butter and also other food dangerous for health... each Countries has got its problems... :3

[sparklishh.livejournal.com]

DENNOR INTERACTION HIMAPAPA ILU.

I love Norway's flustered face in the second panel.

[chiisana00.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure where the whole "cut down butter production for the sake of healthy diet" came from, since that is not what I read from my Norwegian source 6___9

I though we're forced to cut down production because the cows this year didn't produce enough milk (with required fat content) to make butter, but... >_____>;;

[amylerajie.livejournal.com]

Yup, it's the contrary that what Himaruya said, in fact. XD
Norwegian farmers can't produce more milk than a quota (they have to pay a fee if they have a surplus, in fact) and lately there was a diet fashion of eating more butter, so, obviously, the farmers couldn't produce more milk... and the Norwegian economy is quite closed, so importation is difficult... Sweden, Finland and Russia had problems with butter too, in october, if I remember correctly :)

[yulcera.livejournal.com]

OMG The citizens look so happy even with no butter! It's so cute!
I'm glad we have some more Denmark and Norway interaction, it seems like forever. And their winter wear is adorable.
I wonder what type of cake Norway would make~

[pixelmicrocat.livejournal.com]

They look happy because they got the last of the butter :P

[ladyaxis.livejournal.com]

I can't help seeing Norway's troll having Germany hair XD Oh Denmark, that was the wrong thing to say to your wife best buddy

[foohey1212.livejournal.com]

We won't forget... the Norwegian Butter Crisis 2011 XDD

I want to see Iceland and Mr. Puffin!!
