I ended up regretting having so much to colour in my illustrations.
\nJust a moment ago I thought it\u2019s 12 o\u2019clock but as I coloured half of this thing it was suddenly 12 again, I felt like crying. I\u2019m so slow with colouring…<\/p>\n

Everybody please be careful at today\u2019s comiket. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a while but I thought I\u2019d answer some more questions.
\nAlso adding a new Canada wallpaper.
\n<\/img>
\n<\/p>\n

>Random question, but do you plan to introduce Mongolia?<\/p>\n

Also as a personal request, but I\u2019d love to see Japan wearing a hakama and junbei, or just generally this Japanese-styled clothing that wore all the writers of the Meiji era.<\/font><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been meaning to introduce Mongolia for ages now, I used to see him as a very wild character but nowadays the image of a nonchalant Mongolia occupied my mind.
\nI couldn\u2019t decide so it will probably take a while until Mongolia appears.
\nI think the Nordic 5 and Russia\u2019s family will probably appear sooner than him. Also thank you for the request, Japan-styled clothing is great, isn\u2019t it!<\/p>\n

>How did you study the English language?
\nIt would be very helpful if you could explain how you did it.<\/font><\/p>\n

Yes! My recommendation would be to try talking at all costs, to live in a suitable environment and let the language slowly soak in.
\nThat and I\u2019m lately pretty hooked on English DVDs.
\nLately the DVDs have English subtitles as well as the Japanese translations, so they can be very helpful in learning English.<\/p>\n

>There was a big firework festival in my hometown today! Us Japanese have so many of them.
\nWhich made me think, do Americans have large firework festivals like we do too?<\/font><\/p>\n

Yes, America\u2019s birthday, the Independence day, gets celebrated with magnificent fireworks, I used to go and see them every year with my friend from Taiwan. Sadly I wasn\u2019t able to see them this year!
\nThe hot dog eating festival takes place on this day as well, the one where the famous eater Kobayashi participates.<\/p>\n

>Switzerland….!!! Doesn\u2019t he get a birthday pic?<\/font><\/p>\n

Now that you’ve mentioned it, a birthday illustration for Switzerland is indeed still missing. Once I\u2019ve finished the pictures I\u2019m working on at the moment, I\u2019ll make it as my next challenge.
\nBut he\u2019ll appear in the manga a bit later, don\u2019t forget to have a look at that time as well\uff3e\u30ee\uff3e<\/p>\n

>Would you make Notosama 5 downloadable again?<\/font><\/p>\n

I thought I\u2019d make a special occasion thank-you pack of all Notosama for a limited time.
\nBut first I\u2019ll do my best to put together number 6!<\/p>\n

What language does everybody in Hetalia speak?
\nYou mentioned the differences between British and American accents, does that mean they speak English?<\/font><\/p>\n

They do use various languages on different occasions, but I think there is also a language that only they understand.
\nOtherwise they wouldn\u2019t be able to interact with those who were just barely born and didn\u2019t yet have any contact with other countries and outer world.<\/p>\n

>What happened to the character profiles of each country that was on the home page around January this year? The log for the diary is not accessible anymore, but I want to see it so badly…<\/font><\/p>\n

I\u2019m just in the process of using it to create a remastered version of a new character page. Please do have a look once it\u2019s ready!<\/p>\n

>Canada is my favourite character, and I\u2019m sad there isn\u2019t a cell phone wallpaper for him.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here you go!<\/p>\n
