Daw, the prefectures are so darn cute!

Smile Germany!

They are all Kyushu prefectures, from right to left:

Ōita, Nagasaki, Saga, Fukuoka

Kagoshima, Kumamoto, Miyazaki

(I'd love to help with the rest of the translation but I seriously need to go to sleep.)

D'AWWWW. GERMANY'S PUPPY IS SO CUTE <3

Come on Germany, who can not smile when holding such an adorable little dog?

Googletranslate roughly translates 'Reonberuga'

Is the puppy a Leonberger? :'D <3333

It looks like these "new" prefecture designs might actually be his really old obscure ones (only a few of them still exist as files). Look at the black and white sketch on the right, that's Akita! There's one that looks like a prototype of Kalom (of Barjona), he must be Shiga.

He's kept Nagasaki as a twin-tailed girl, but removed her ribbons to lessen her resemblance to Seychelles (who was recycled from her design). Oita is Nomaru from Barjona. It looks like Himaruya's reused a few of his other characters for the prefectures, but the other ones are new-old looks for them. I wonder how the prefecture characters relate to the old -hans he drew?

MY WAIFU

Also Matsuri.

Ahh I hope someone would translate the notes/profiles! >

I really dig the prefecture-tans. There's just a certain style to them that, I dunno...

And I wonder who drew the last three doodles? They're rather cute~

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

He drew them. xD

[elysiumspirit.livejournal.com]

Eh? Really? They don't look like his usual style...

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

Well, it's from his high school years. :D

[dj-mewmew.livejournal.com]

Wah! Miyazaki-chan! I guessed that was her~~ Miyazaki was a lot of fun to go to. It captures what I know about the perfecture well!

[vysnia-cerasus.livejournal.com]

It's his old style from about '03-05. He had a few old prefecture designs, but you can't really find most of them anymore. WebArchive indexed a few of their filenames, but didn't archive the pictures. "Nagasaki" is still in existence, and he even reprinted her in the volume 3 booklet to show his inspiration for Seychelles.

Other old prefectures designs he did: Mie (I saw it floating around on Tumblr), Gunma (lost), Fukushima (also lost), and fh14 found another one but the name of the prefecture currently escapes my mind. The design was a blond man.

It also looks like there's a prototype of Noto in those three designs, in the middle. He definitely looks less cutesy there.

[vysnia-cerasus.livejournal.com]

I hope so too! I wonder what grouping of prefectures he'll draw next? I think either the Chubu or Kansai group could be fun, but then Kanto's got some interesting possibilities. Oh, and he forgot Okinawa (Ryukyu), but maybe he's saving them for their own little picture, hopefully.

HNNGHHHH Germany and a puppy~ ; w; SO CUTE. <3

[saturndjinni.livejournal.com]

Cuuuute ;3; I love the one on the right with the little green bird

[spaceinvaderdud.livejournal.com]

Huzzah @ Nomaru / Oita!

Kind of hoping Hima-papa will do some prefecture comics in the future.

Especiallyoneswithnomaruoita. >_>

[emsiecat.livejournal.com]

Those prefectures are so cute ^3^

Eee Germany with a puppy seriously Doitsu how many dogs do you have? (I bet he adopts unwanted/homeless ones as well as buying them, instead of a crazy-cat lady he's totes a crazy-dog dude omgwhyamitypingliekpoland!?)

[raecat.livejournal.com]

haha that's actually my headcanon, that Germany has a huge yard so he can take in all the homeless puppies, so he has at least a dozen at any given time. Poor guy's house is like a zoo, with all the dogs, + 2 cats + 1 Gilbird + Prussia himself, and then Italy pops in an just adds more chaos!

No wonder he never smiles...

[rosetteroulette.livejournal.com]

Germany and puppy are so cute! ♥ D'aww, and he was brushing it too? Kyaa!

And yay, more Prefectures! Less girls this time, darn. XD; They're freaking adorable too. I love the fourth one with the bird on his head. (Fukuoka?)

I can tell that last pic is an old drawing (looks like the art style from his older comics). Anyone know who they are?

[raecat.livejournal.com]

soo I'll admit to my confusion here. Can someone please explain just what a prefecture is? I don't think I understand. How/why would they have personifications? Are these guys even hetalia characters or is this a separate project?

And anyone who knows more about them, what is the significance of the animals or objects they might have?

[mykonos2.livejournal.com]

Germany and a puppy. Made my day. &hearts

[twyxted-mind.livejournal.com]

Germany's brushing a puppy.

He's brushing a puppy.

BUHYOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
