Hey guys... I have a question that some might think it's dumb, but... what's the relationship between Spain, Belgium and Netherlands?

[arichu1.livejournal.com]

Well this is going to be at the top of my head so I don't remember the details of time period but at one point Spain had control of Netherlands and Belgium.

[toontoosh.livejournal.com]

we sure are getting lot's of Spain, chibi RomanoNetherlands and Belgium lately~ not that I complain or anything ^_^

[taleness.livejournal.com]

Wow, same timeline as the newest episode, hoho~ <3 Thank you, Hima-sensei!

[mertseguer.livejournal.com]

[ohschnapadoodle.livejournal.com]

Gonna see a lot of them today :D

Can't wait for the actual text!

[kanami-yuuta.livejournal.com]

NETHERLAND OMG YES!!! >W>

Belgium too! so cute!

[vashdot.livejournal.com]

Ahh enjoying those four so much. ; u ; Also loving how much Netherlands hates Spain, makes so much sense. <3

[mertseguer.livejournal.com]

Looks like Neth already has his scarf so that thing must be very old... also quite clearly no scar.

[senta-viveca.livejournal.com]

Yep, no scar.. That's the first thing I notice too.. But why's his scar forgotten (again)???

[gloomykuma.livejournal.com]

Yay, continuation!

Chibi Lithuania<3

[larosabelle.livejournal.com]

Spain and Netherlands = hell yeah. It shall be a day of gorgeous men. Unf.

And then Belgium and Chibiromano are just added cuteness.

*Spots comic*

Oh cool. I love Belgium, Spain and Romano together. Oh look, the side of Netherlands head. Hima-sensei's been drawing him a lot recently ... Not complaining, though.

*Spots Liet Chibi*

OMG SO CUTE I JUST WANT TO HUGGLES HIM. XD

[icanshowyou.livejournal.com]

I already suspected it with the volume 3 strips, but it now seems clear how Netherlands got his scar. I wish Himaruya would do a comic on it though, it must have been a traumatizing experience for him.

And Lithuania, I think you're cute, but why do you always look so much like a girl!XD

[sketchy333.livejournal.com]

D'aw, it looks like Spain wants to be friends with grumpy Netherlands but it isn't working. XD And of course, Belgium tries her best to help while Romano just stands and laughs at Spain. I love those four so much!

Oooh, hey there Lithuania! :D

[mertseguer.livejournal.com]

I do wonder what reason Himatuya will give for Netherlands being so pissed at Spain. I doubt he'll mention the Inquisition torturing and murdering his citizens.

[larosabelle.livejournal.com]

How could anyone expect the Spanish inquisition with Spain all smiley and cheerful like that? d'awwww.

o_o

[zefurfur.livejournal.com]

Moar Belgium and Netherlands ?! YES PLEASE !

[mg-emji.livejournal.com]

Liet is so pretty <3

[nodokaotonashi.livejournal.com]

Is Netherlands jealous ? :3

And trust my Japanese : Belgium said "niyoniyo" un the last panel. Did she learn that from Prussia or did she teach him ?

[kecen.livejournal.com]

Hm, Lithuania looks like Belgium without the hair ribbon. He has a page-dog with him, too. Curious to know how this strip will be. Belgium gets a non-Christmas strip?

[cosplay-thief.livejournal.com]

I approve with anything with Canada in it.

But the bloodbath has open the way for a tense Neds/Spain relationship. Yay, hate!shipping! Add Belgium in it and things get spicy. XD

[vysnia-cerasus.livejournal.com]

A sequel to the volume 3 Boss Spain? I'm looking forward to that! Shame those previews are scrapped versions of the strips though, I hope we still get to see it. It looks like he missed out on Romano's curl in one panel too. Lithuania's adorable, but I'm thinking these chibis must be for the artbook. He did that one of Greece, but Greece already has a profile. I'm a little disappointed he didn't draw Belarus and Ukraine in their military uniforms with the others, but hey. I can't wait to see the finished illustrations!

[maybebaby83.livejournal.com]

i just have to say that wolf/dog lithuania is drawn with is ADORABLE! hima is getting better with his animals

[nuitfroide.livejournal.com]

Yay Netherlands! Im still hoping for some interaction with Netherlands and Canada though.

[seraphoftales.livejournal.com]

Someone clear me up please. I've read from the previous comment the historical relations between the Nations.

But in Hetalia canon, what is the relationship? All I know is that Netherlands doesn't like Spain very much. Spain is a little agitated that Netherlands doesnt like him very much. And in my personal opinion, Belgium looks like she's trying to appease both of them. Somebody please tell what's going on?

And for that matter, do we have a date on when these strips occured?

[icanshowyou.livejournal.com]

Here are some links to the comics that feature Netherlands and also make a reference to Spain. This is all we know about their historical relationship up till now:

http://community.livejournal.com/hetalia/7266210.html

It's not much, but I think we get the idea what's going on between them. Netherlands is fed up with Spain controlling him and is contemplating to rebel and will eventually beat him up (probably leading to the scar). The time frame for these comics must be around 1550 or so, before Netherlands started to revolt?

I have to say, I absolutely love the dynamic between these two and I hope it will get more attention in the future.

Thank you Himaruya for so much Spain lately.

It soothes the pain of other things. SOB.
