Hetalia World Series episode 14

Someone had their Caps Lock on when sub­bing this episode.

Dear fan­sub­bers. We know Amer­ica is yelling. We can hear him. You don’t need to put his lines into all caps.

In fact, there’s a small, cyn­ical part of me that believes that the Hetalia subs not show­ing up in the usual anime chan­nels reeks of elit­ism. Hetalia subs appear­ing only on Hetalia chan­nels for Hetalia fans only, none of those typ­ical anime fans. How­ever the far more likely reason is because they simply don’t know about the usual ways for fan­sub­bers to dis­trib­ute their work.

And so Deen, after shock­ing the world by actu­ally doing some sort of con­tinu­ation with the Aus­trian Suc­ces­sion arc, they then decide that three epis­odes in a row is going waaay too far and instead we jump all the ways back to do a gag that already appeared in epis­ode 4. Worse yet, it didn’t have a punch­line. I like your his­tory, I like your his­tory. Yay, now we’re friends. Now let’s go have wild and pas­sion­ate sex off-screen. How­ever I do stand by my declar­a­tion in the last epis­ode that, if Deen do decide to throw away con­tinu­ity, then the return of the Aus­trian Suc­ces­sion arc will be made all the sweeter. We’ll have to wait and see for that one.

Then we have Deen con­tinu­ing their one-studio fight against the har­nesses of con­tinu­ity with the intro­du­cing of the Alien. I do per­son­ally think there was a way bet­ter way to make ali­ens funny with Hetalia. Two stor­ies about the reac­tions of Eng­land and Amer­ica to ali­ens. When War of the Worlds was about to hit cinemas, they did a mock broad­cast of an alien inva­sion to pro­mote the movie. There were Amer­ic­ans who then pro­ceeded to bar­ri­cade their house and stock up on sup­plies. In Eng­land, there was one of those prank-playing TV shows where they con­vinced a rather old women that an alien had landed in her back garden. It was a pretty big effects dis­play, with smoke and a space­ship and everything. But my favour­ite part was when they did a mock alien rising out of the space­ship, the old lady asked it whether it would like a cup of tea. I wish I could find You­tube videos of it but I’m afraid I have no idea of what it would be called. Ah well~!

    You are the slow­est blog­ger ever. You real­ize that subs and streams are out on animecrazy.net by 7 AM on Mondays right?

    Notice to every­one: Run­ning Away with Su-San is get­ting animated.

      I heard, I saw on the Wiki, and I exclaimed “DENMARK”.

        I ran around scream­ing and prais­ing Sweden. Then I down­loaded graphic Su-Fin yaoi.

        … graphic SuFin yaoi? D: Oh no no no!

        … can I see it?

      But they’re with these shit subs where the fan­sub­bers think it’s a good idea to all caps and insert their own jokes.

        And gg didn’t do that? I like fast replies ;3; Plus, a new epis­ode is out tomor­row too!

        By the way, this is rel­ev­ant to your interests: http://i49.tinypic.com/2rzcrnt.jpg

        That pic is pretty awesome~

        And no. gg did not put all caps for whenever Amer­ica spoke. Neither did any of the other sub groups who’ve subbed Hetalia over the time it’s aired.

        I know many people’s reac­tions to this is that they’re doing it for free so you’ve got no right to com­plain, but that’s horse­shit. Noth­ing is excempt from cri­tique. I blog for free (those ads have earned me a grand total of 10 euro. whoop de doop, enough to pay for the domain name). That doesn’t excempt me from cri­ti­cism and push me to do a bet­ter job

        nonono! I ment that gg changed the sub­titles some­times too. AIDS anyway?

        By the way, half of the first epis­ode has been leaked in the dub: http://www.sendspace.com/file/1xspe8

    I swear, Amer­ica looked like he was fap­ping for a moment in this epis­ode. O.o’

    Next (Or rather this) week, I sug­gest you skip a minute or two after the open­ing and head straight to the Boss Spain seg­ment, unless you can stand another second of Chibitalia. ^^;

      Agreed. it’s the Pump­kin Panties seg­ment… they should anim­ate the other half, it’s a good way to see Ger­many with no pants.

        But isn’t that a Christmas–

        Oh wait, never mind. Deen doesn’t care if they’re anim­at­ing a Christ­mas seg­ment in the begin­ning of July. ^^;

      And the yaoi wasn’t even good. Fin­land wore Sweden’s uni­form and Sweden found it hot. Cue yaoi. It ended half way through though.. So then I down­loaded graphic Germancest and giggled my way through it.

        … oh no, not Germancest. DDD:

        … who tops?

      • luffyluffy
        Posted July 4, 2010 at 1:37 pm | Permalink

        Ger­many mostly. Japan doesn’t believe in Prus­sia top­ping. I DO HAVE ONE OF HIM TOPPING. But the best one is.. Hmm.. N-G. Brit­an­nia Angel used a spell on Prus­sia to make him really sweet and mud­dily. Cue yaoi.

    Translation-wise, I find this per­son just fine. Bet­ter than gg, anyway.

    The subs are dis­trib­uted on the APH comm and are meant to stay there. It’s just quick-subbing to sat­isfy the fans imme­di­ately. :I

    We might get ali­ens and Pho­toshop CC later on. :D

    Be like me and get into Poke­mon again.

    Oh God the dub is hor­rible (I expec­ted it to be but).

    That is not a Chinee accent. I can do a Chinee accent. It’s not that.

      You ser­i­ous? I loved it… I loved every inch of it! Plus, I also sus­pect that it’s a JOKE dub, because alot of the lines don’t make sense. So.. I still loved it… Ger­many *__*

      • Posted July 4, 2010 at 11:00 pm | Permalink

        They all soun­ded the same. And I doubt it is. They ad-libbed some lines on pur­pose. The “raise your hand, but do so in a way that does not mock any salute to my country’s past” kind of pissed me off too.

        What China should sound like is a Chinee house­wife and that ain’t hard to do.

        Although I shouldn’t be com­plain­ing. I was never plan­ning to buy it in the first place. :I

        Oooh~ Thats what Ger­many was say­ing! Hard to hear dub is hard to hear. Why did it piss you off? I was crack­ing up through the entire thing~

        OK not China right? Because EVERYONE hates China’s voice so… ; A;

        I couldn’t even hear China..

    I lol’d at the dub. Espe­cially the “enslave human­ity” thing. :D

    The Tony and Eng­land thing I quite liked, how­ever, it didn’t really stand out as one of my favour­ite strips…
    And Italy and Japan accord­ing to your descrip­tion of them?
    It is so hard to find fics of them. I’ve tried.

    • luffyluffy

      I’ve read a fic where Italy was a stripped and Japan payed him for the sex. It was weird..

        I remem­ber that! But I think they deleted it…
        I like your icon by the way. Den­mark looks so adorable.

    LOLs the Brit­ish and their tea…

    Tho I think the reason why Tony didn’t like Eng­land is because of Stephen Hawking…

    Russia’s Va for the dub is Jerry Jew­ell. And you get to hear what France sounds like too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoeCZf9zc1A&feature=player_embedded

    Ger­many is sup­pose to be revealed some­time later today.

    Also, the la la la la la la la la will haunt you.
