gosh... more cities I want to travel so damn much.. ;w; <3
Loves every single of it! -goes to memorize them name-

[sailorstarsun.livejournal.com]

Just a random note, but it looks like these are prefectures, not cities. .^,^

I'll be moving to Tochigi next month, so I'm glad he's a cutie! ;P

[maybebaby83.livejournal.com]

i think these characters might actually be part of himaruya's other series http://noto-sama.livejournal.com/7890.html

[archylas.livejournal.com]

AT LONG LAST MORE FEMALES.

(and another meganekko)

/faints

[chulchinmae.livejournal.com]

I am in love with all the prefectures. ;-;

Anyway, I have an unrelated question, but this chibi recently appeared in Himaruya's gallery: http://www.kitayume7.com/gallery/?no=2&view=68

Is she Vietnam or another prefecture? She looks like Vietnam (now with ahoge?).

[grace118peachy.livejournal.com]

Uwahhh!! Where's Saitama? I'm born in Kyoto but spent more time in Saitama.

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

They're not.

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

Saitama is the one with the leek. (:

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

Don't know, most likely prefecture, but she's a discarded design so don't think hard on it. :U

[chulchinmae.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, I see the discarded characters now. Still, it could just be a discarded picture, not necessarily a rejected character. I'm curious though, she's so cute. ;;;

[chulchinmae.livejournal.com]

...Ishikawa appears as if what regular Noto wishes he could look like. Hee hee.

Seems like they get along, if Google-Fu is anything to go by.

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

This Ishikawa looks like Noto-sama but his demeanor is different.

WHITE NOTO/BLACK NOTO/NOTO-SAMA/KANAZAWA-HAN/ISHIKAWA-SAN OTP MY BEAUTIFUL OTP



Going down it's Aomori-san, Akita-san, Iwate-chan, Miyagi-kun, Yamagata-chan, Fukushima-san, Gunma-san, Tochigi-kun, Ibaraki-san, Chiba-san, Saitama-san, Tokyo-kun, Kanagawa-kun, Ishikawa-san, Fukui-san, Toyama-san, Fukuoka-san, Saga-kun, Nagasaki-chan, Oita-san, Miyazaki-chan, Kumamoto-san, and Kagoshima-san.
Why I included suffixes I have no idea.
A good number of them look familiar, haha.

By the way Chiba may or may not be a girl.

[kecen.livejournal.com]

Kanagawa reminds me of Seborga.

More prefectures more parties.

Fukui a girl? Haha, I saw a fanart where Japan was laid over the map of his land features, and Fukui was where his crotch was.

Re: I hope this helps

[kecen.livejournal.com]

Wow, his Tokyo is hella different from what Western fans have created!

Re: I hope this helps

[lost-hitsu.livejournal.com]

They did? Haven't seen it.

The only tokyo-ish thing that I recognize are the monjayaki spatulas :)

[kawaiisyringa.livejournal.com]

Hawaaa, I can't hande this.
These are all just too cute!!!! ;A;

/I won't be able to remember their names though T__T

[chan-chanz.livejournal.com]

So cute!!~~ *gyaaa~*

I'm gonna save all the pictures!!~

Thanks!

[vysnia-cerasus.livejournal.com]

I oversleep and miss this, but YES. What a glorious OTP! Multiple Notos, all so similar, yet all so different. It's nice to see Wakasa and Toyama again, or their prefecture lookalikes.

Chiba's chest has a bit of curve to it, so it's possible that Chiba is female. She looks a little more cutesy and darker-haired than Koedo, but then again, these prefectures are different from his other characters (except when they're not too different, like Oita, ISHIKAWA, etc.). If the Gunma's the same one that he drew in '04 (that WebArchive couldn't archive), I guess we know what she looked like now, just in an updated style. Kanagawa looks like a happier, brown-haired Iceland.

I'm curious to see the Kansai grouping, especially Kyoto and Nara now.

[ipreferds.livejournal.com]

Ahhh, considering Tokyo has now been personified, I quite like knowing the unofficial 'mascot' of my current city ;D

[grace118peachy.livejournal.com]

ooh ok not shown in this post... oh my Saitama-kun kawaii! Ahh I miss eating sweet potatoes there....

[rosetteroulette.livejournal.com]

Oh God, they're all kinds of adorable! X3

I wonder if they'll ever appear in the comic?

[iteyoshii.livejournal.com]

Or, maybe the curve is because he's a bit bending down.

Love the little peanuts he/she gets around him/her XD

[retteliebe.livejournal.com]

Oiyaaaa, I totally now ship TokyoxOsaka.
>w< Tokyooooo~~
Oy, and why do so many of the prefectures look like Hetalia characters? I see an America without glasses right next to Fem!America, and the first one looks like Iggy, and I see a Fem!Russia and a Fem!Japan and a Fem!Austria, and the one on the end sorta looks like Sweden and Sealand's lovechild, wtf.
And I love the last one, the one with the piggy tails~ She reminds me of...Haruhi Suzumiya. xDD;

[waterjewelemi09.livejournal.com]

Are these hetalia related? Or they just something he doing for fun.

[blue-cage.livejournal.com]

Hi! I used your list to label them all, I hope I got them in the right order?

the full set (http://pics.livejournal.com/blue_cage/pic/000r3pga)

[kisekichibi.livejournal.com]

Yup! \o/

[darklight90.livejournal.com]

Excellent! I'd love to see similar chibis from the other countries :)

[disneyotaku.livejournal.com]

These are so cute~!

[disneyotaku.livejournal.com]

I don't think it's Hetalia related really, kinda just something to do for fun? It would make Hetalia wayy too complicated to add them completely to the story. All of these guys, pluse the 50 states from the U.S., and the 20-something provinces from France, just that would be overboard, in my opinion.
