Got into hetalia the first time ‘bout 7 years ago and now I’m back- Anyways, I've been doing a 100+ slide presentation (it’ll prolly be 200+ when i finish) about hetalia for fun and here's a list of my favorite characters.

Technoblade is, to this day, one of my favorite youtubers of all time. He was hilarious and driven with his goals, however silly they may have seemed. He was thorough in his planning and strategizing, which was admirable. He had a flare for the dramatic in a theatre-esque way. He was a huge dork, with his elaborate speeches, and mythological references. I remember excitedly waiting for him on his streams, although usually he was late. Putting on the potato wars videos as I did my homework.

Even after his fame, he had such great humility and respect for both his fans and coworkers. His content and humor brought smiles and laughter to many of those who watched. He inspired so many, and he left a positive impact on the world. Even when he knew his end was drawing near, he went out of his way thinking of what to say in his goodbye to us. I've never really mourned a "celebrity death" before, even with Stan Lee and Chadwick Boseman, but seeing his time reach an end, hearing that he was giving his streaming money to his siblings, hit so hard. He really was a great person until the end.

So long, Techno, Alex, and may you rest in peace. You died too young, we'll miss you, and you may be gone, but your legacy will live on in our hearts. After all, "Technoblade never dies."

Low quality appreciation post for ya boi Speedy Gonzalez

Look at this goof, he would totally cheat on his tests

Every time SAD-ist makes a new animatic I cant help but admire the details, the lighting, the color usage, the camera-work, the transitions, and the way she makes the emotions of her scenes come to life. For "Sunsprite's Eulogy" I wanna highlight a few of my favorite tiny points-

1- the exaggeration of boy-king Wilbur, and the giant throne with the burden of adult responsibilities. He sits so small and sad on his lonesome, reminding the viewer that he was still a kid when he was crowned

2- the flawless transition between Tommy's flashback of watching Philza leave (traces of Philza's feathers in the air) and his confession to Wilbur. Perfect visual story-telling, altho I'm biased because that's my favorite scene lmao

3- the way the pacing sped up right at Mumza's death, just like the story itself. It really hit home how quickly they had to grow up and the speed feels nearly overwhelming, as though we're not ready for it

Like how Wilbur and Tommy weren't ready for it

Then the music and pacing slowing down right as Philza returns, subtly depicting how time felt like it froze for all 3 of the boys upon seeing Philza return
