Confirmation of Petition

[squeaky-spooky.livejournal.com]

Apparently the rumors about a petition in Korea to cancel the Hetalia anime are true:

No plans to cancel it as of yet. Interestingly enough, there were never plans for Korea to be in the anime.

haaa yes, with HK's cute face, who needs other icons!!

I just find these posts so irritating, especially when it has to link to putrid racist comments with little real facts of all things. I know nobody wants to be like that here (and basically no one is), but like-- can't we keep these discussions on f!s or wherever this is going down? I'm here to see some fanart and fic- not to discuss whether or not the anime is in jeopardy. I just feel like if these posts keep coming, we're gonna be overrun with "I HEARD HOLLAND IS PROTESTING TOO!! WHETHER OR NOT THESE CLAIMS ARE VALID LET'S POST ABOUT IT IN THE COMMUNITY!!"

but you're right~ :-j as long as people here are being respectful (and I could probably be a little nicer about it too...) I got no real area for fussiness.

I don't know. The fans do have a right to be concerned if the anime is going to be tampered in some way, which makes it relevant. It's a world wide of difference between the Netherlands protesting and Korea protesting though.

And the last place it needs to be is in F!S really.

Sorry to be ignorant, but what is F!S? D:
