Original post here, it's a sort of a disclaimer for Kitayume pages.

Thanks

jammerlea for the editing.

■ About this site

This site is about a historical comedy with country personifications as well as about a radio club with personifications of Japanese prefectures.

Basically the author of this site just loves countries and there will be lots of obsessive geography jokes and current events and 2chan jokes, as well as the occasional BL fooling around, so if you don't like this sort of stuff it's better you don't look at all.

Persistant people who aren't into this and are still reading, good luck.

■About links

Feel free to use them wherever you want. Also the links to various mangas and articles under hyperlinks are okay.

Only please, refrain from hotlinking to the pictures other than the page's banner.

■About the copyright

Everything concerning the derivate works - your own characters, doujinshi, fanart, animation or games and cosplay, is free for you to use as long as it is within the range of your own hobbies. It's not necessary to personally ask for permission.

For the permission to use these in regularly published books please directly ask Gentosha comics.

Also I don't particularly mind the pictures being used in an anime website, but if you are going to use them somewhere else, please add some sort of credit for the page.

Selling of CDs with downloaded material is strictly forbidden.

■ About cosplay

It's okay to cosplay any of the characters from this page..

Hetalia costumes are based on actual historical uniforms, but I played around with the designs a bit so they are a bit different now.

■About printing and reprinting

The comics on this page are allowed to be printed and reprinted as long as the source is added, but please refrain from selling these or using them on payed sites.

■About requests

It sometimes takes a considerable amount of time from the moment I receive an email until I get to the actual request, so pictures for somebody's birthday are more or less impossible to draw. However, it can be that I will sometimes draw interesting requests that don't have time restrictions.

■About games

Feel free to share your game reviews with me.

I don't mind if you add a screenshot as well.

But please, spare me any major spoilers like who the culprit is or how it ends

Also please refrain from the redistribution of games that aren't publicly available anymore.

■About manga

Kitakou Broadcasting Club: Manga about a broadcasting club in a provincial Kitakou high school

Barjona: Manga about a broadcasting club in a delinquent high school

Hetalia: History comedy manga featuring nation personifications.

Thanks for translating ^^

Wow, Himaruya-Sensei has the got to be the awesomest author ever o.o *Remembers the days of authors *couchArchiecomicscough* raging against fanworks*

Lol
~~They even erased the Archie comics section in F.f. Net right?~~ /Casual fan

Yep. Archie Comics reeeeeally went all out against fan work...

...But the worst example is the author of Thursday Next. He constantly speaks out against fan works when his own series can be considered a fanfic to some extent -_-"

I think one factor has got to be the age difference. Loads of the authors who put down/criticise/rage against fanworks tend to be older authors, who are probably less familiar with the internet and the concept of fanfiction and what it entails. Himaruya is younger, and from what we can tell a pretty avid internet user, and thus understands much better what fanfiction is and that fanfiction authors aren't trying to 'steal' his work or 'mooch off it'.

Good thing, this should be added in the community guidelines as recommended reading since it looks really helpful.

Thanks for translating this. :3 I remember it had been said here that he was okay with his images being used in that way, but it's nice to see it in English now!

"Persistant people who aren't into this and are still reading, good luck." I love this line XD

Great to see this translated into English! (Hima, why so awesome?)

Thank you very much for the translation!

I like it that he mentioned copyright and (re)printing of his works :')

Thanks so much for the translation! Like everyone else has been saying, it's great to see Himaruya-sensei is made of awesomesauce! ;p

Thank you for translating!

It's nice of Hima to be really lax with the copyright and stuff. He's just awesome :'D

Thanks for the translation! :D

Aww, I love the part about him not wanting to be spoiled when it comes to video games. XD

"as well as the occasional BL fooling around"
OH HIMA XDDDDD I love you so much~

Oh Hima <3!!!
Thanks for the translations!

Thanks for the translation! Before it, I use Google Translate and it's so confusing me .___.''
And Himaruya, you're the most awesome author ever! I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU!

Thanks for the translation! I've heard some of these things around, but could never find any official statements, so I'm very happy to get confirmation on this stuff.

I wonder if it's a coincidence that my favorite authors are also the ones who are most understanding about allowing fanwork?

I <3 you, Himaruya!

Thank you so much for translating this! ^^

I think that as artist, seeing fanarts of your own work is really awesome!!! The problem is the people who manages the money and copyrights ¬¬Uu...

Hima is a genious!

Thank you so much for translating!!!

Aw, Hima, you're so cute!

Himaruya sounds like a pretty decent and good-spirited author to offer so much to the fandom. :)

Further proof why Hima is one of the best manga artists around 8D

Hima-sensei, you're awesome!
