The FUCK ? @ the second one, its kinda cute though..

Someone translate por favor !

[xxmadhatterx.livejournal.com]

Etto, I think the second one says something along the lines of:

Germany: Is it a cold?

Japan: I'm sorry, but could you take Pochi-kun out for a walk?

Very... interesting(crack-ish) style that is, the second one O___O

[genaminna.livejournal.com]

Thanks for translating!

[xxmadhatterx.livejournal.com]

Np :D

[pixelmicrocat.livejournal.com]

Yay, cats! One of them has Italy's eyes, so cute XD
A-are those more of America's drawings? D:

[ghibli22.livejournal.com]

The second one... reminds me of something. The style seems very familiar. Charlie Brown maybe? No.... but its something.

[cheiranthus.livejournal.com]

Sazae-san?

[pixygal.livejournal.com]

That's what it looks like to me.

[nejime0419.livejournal.com]

It's a parody of Kobo-chan.(Japanese newspaper comics.)

[cheiranthus.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I noticed after some of the comments on the bottom.

[xue.livejournal.com]

It's the style of artist who drew/draws Kobochan. A newspaper column manga. :3

[naevai.livejournal.com]

What IS that second thing? I think my brain imploded.

[piekalla.livejournal.com]

Second makes me think of the Simpsons...

[ghrelin.livejournal.com]

a little like the simpsons but not quite bc of the eyes

[noisysqualo.livejournal.com]

I can't stop staring at the second pic for some unknown reason!!!
o-o

[mad-kitty12.livejournal.com]

Same here xD

The second one really reminds me of Masashi Ueda's artwork:

His works are rather unheard of in the Western world, but they are somewhat famous in Indonesia.

[seshru2.livejournal.com]

Mainly how the faces are drawn.

[potatopizza.livejournal.com]

agree : )

[eruraito.livejournal.com]

You're so right! Us Japanese fans are sure that Himaruya imitated Masashi Ueda's style there. It's great his works are also known in Indonesia even if not much! ^w^

[onionrice.livejournal.com]

Pfft, germany looks so derpish XD.

[moon-chan.livejournal.com]

Is that a Russia cat on Japan's shoulder?

[narcomanic.livejournal.com]

... Now that I think about it, the ones in his arms look kinda like Italy and Germany? :''DD

[murasaki-kaze.livejournal.com]

The second strip's title is why he says it's a lie. The title is: "Hetalia Volume 3 is this kind of book."

[genaminna.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you! I didn't know.

[xue.livejournal.com]

Lol Kobochan. XDDD

[crakhaed.livejournal.com]

In the second one, Germany reminds me of Homer from the Simpsons. XD

[hannahsheep.livejournal.com]

Thats exactly what I thought lmao

[kanami-yuuta.livejournal.com]

GERMANY AND JAPAN WTH!!

OH HOW CUTE JAPAN! KITIES!!

[yamikisara.livejournal.com]

Bet the kitties are actually Germany and Italy and the one on Japan's shoulder is Pochi x3

[kagekitsunea.livejournal.com]

that's what i thought, except the one on his shoulder looks like Russia to me

[yamikisara.livejournal.com]

OMG you're right! XD
but why would he be dragging Russia along? o.o

[moon-chan.livejournal.com]

Because Russia is always there..

[yamikisara.livejournal.com]

creepy o.o

still love him XD

[kagekitsunea.livejournal.com]

welll japan doesn't look to pleased that he's there and if I'm remembering correctly doesn't he hate his guts?
P.S love your icon <3

[yamikisara.livejournal.com]

I...I don't really know o.o can be o.o

oh thank you~ x3

[hikari-kaitou.livejournal.com]

They actually are Germany, Italy and Russia!kitties. There's a section in vol. 3 called "If the world was cats" and these 3, along with kitty!Japan and Austria make an appearance :)

[mitsukirox101.livejournal.com]

The second one, wtf? XDD

[heyheyho.livejournal.com]

SAZAE-SAAANN

[chulchinmae.livejournal.com]

One of the strips in Volume 3 is "If the world had only cats", so yes, it is exactly what you think it is. xD

I want scans to typeset now. orz;;

That style is awesome in the second one, I can't stop starting at it. *-* It does look like that Kobo-chan that was linked here.

[hoshiko2.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness! I love Japan's new cats from the third volume! The Russia cat with his giant nose is too cute! But he didn't include the Austria cat. That one was so cute and emo

[chulchinmae.livejournal.com]

This may be be much, asking and all, but could you scan in some pages please? My translator and I would love to start working. He's got some of the pages completed already. c: (Pru+Hun, and color pages of Axis) He is absolutely itching to continue. That and I want to typeset.

Of course, you don't have to, but I would love you forever if you did. <3 I'll credit you for the clean scans.

[shinaka.livejournal.com]

XDD Oh, the second style~

I think I'll be too busy laughing at how silly everybody looks rather than read a strip drawn like that though. XDD

[kitsunemischief.livejournal.com]

Japan with kitties and Pochi is adorable.

Okay who let America onto Himuruya's tablet and then hacked onto his blog to post the second picture?

[vivecka.livejournal.com]

now there's a Spain pic saying Vol 3 is out! ♥

[rosewolfie.livejournal.com]

The top pic is cute!..

But the second one...? O___O Wh-What is... I don't... -flails for words-

[alyce-valentine.livejournal.com]

Well, apparently in Volume 3, there's a strip featuring Germany, Italy, and Russia as cats.
So I'm guessing all three cats in the first pic are them.

LMAO. I kind of lol'd at the second pic.
