Older hetalia fans: this may be relevant to your interests

[iroh-fancier.livejournal.com]

So, after seeing this discussion, I decided I should go through with my idea to create a comm for older Hetalia fans it's here if you're interested: hetalia_over_25. It's pretty bare bones so far, but give me a few days to pretty it up. :)

I think I should mention that this wasn't started because we all hate teen and college-age fans. (Far from it! I really, really like you guys :). Just to have a place where we older fans can socialize, arrange meet ups, do fic exchanges, etc.

ETA: If you're close to being 25 please don't think you can't join! I just picked a number that seemed like a pretty good cut off (i.e. 25's a bit older than traditional college/vocational training age in most countries).

I'll join in March after I turn 25, lol.

[iroh-fancier.livejournal.com]

haha well it's not an exact age; I just figured 25 was a good cut off. You can join now :)

Awesome :D

This looks interesting. :)

I know you mentioned that it's not an exact date, but I have to joke. A year and a half for me. ;)

Awesome idea, truly. I always feel so old in comparison to my Hetalia friends.

Oh man I totally hear you! I'm 30 and I thought until tonight I was THE oldest person on this comm!

[helikesitrough.livejournal.com]

30 isn't old~

Unless you're 5. Then 30 is ancient. :| This is not the case. I always joked about getting out my cane. Now I don't feel alone. *feels moderately young in comparison, ogod*

Joined. (And I'll still be one of the oldest there. ;))

Waves the 40 and older Flag!

OMG I just remembered where I'd seen your name and user icon! You did that AMAZING drawing of Ukraine that my girlfriend and I drooled at a few days ago <3

The big boobies need own zip code... ayup. That was my fault. ;)

I love booby bounce sound effects. ;)
Thank You.

[materia-indigo.livejournal.com]

Another one! *Glad to know I'm not the only one*

Whoo Hoo! We're not alone in what the younger crowd seems to consider our frail dotage.

Ya pesky whippersnappers! I'm going to be 80 sitting on my front porch here in Kentucky shaking my cane and shouting things like HENTA HAHAHAI! damn it.

;)

And so many people here are talking about the Good Old Days of Gundam Wing. Ha! What about Captain Harlock and Macross?

[fablespinner.livejournal.com]

Harlock was my First Crush.

OMG *SWOON* Space Pirate (Take THAT Johnny Depp!)

I missed the main discussion because I was out karaokeing, but HELL YES.

I'll be 29 in a couple of months. :D

[cross-chord.livejournal.com]

Yesssss....nothing against the younguns, but I'm 27 and like the others, just feel so....old sometimes.

[anubismito]

Thanks for doing it!! I'll join!

[haylerzz.livejournal.com]

I'm the one that started that discussion and I'm so glad I did! Definitely joining!

[ubermidget.livejournal.com]

I'd like to join too, thank you for setting this up!

[lauthing-cat.livejournal.com]

I'll be 26 in couple of days, so I'm joining :D

[shirokaze-sama.livejournal.com]

*joined*

[mad-kitty12.livejournal.com]

wow, that's a nice idea for those aged fans :D
(but when I saw the title, I though it was a comm for people who were into the fandom a lot of time, lol)

[emsiecat.livejournal.com]

I'm 23 I hope it's okay if I join ^^

This is a good idea. I love everyone in the fandom but it's nice to know there's older people here too (I always get self-conscious and feel like a bit of an odd person when admitting to others I like anime because they think it's a kids thing)

[loupgaros.livejournal.com]

Oooh... I'll join. I feel a bit self conscious when admitting to interest in Hetalia, and a tad overwhelmed by younger fans sometimes :P
