Old fandoms. What are those?

I may be out of the Hetalia loop (but not the Negima loop! Just caught up) but Hong Kong's personality is actually quite AWESOME. (I read Hetalia Bloodbath :X) His character section on TVTropes can list it in a nutshell but basically he's a lot well, looser than most people I know expected? I remember following an RPer for HK who did his personality somewhat similar to this, and it was my favourite interpretation. He's better at annoying China than Korea! YEAH.
Speaking of Negima...well what has happened somewhat surprised me yet at the same time hasn't. I didn't expect such a completely cheesy conclusion to his conflict with Fate, but then everyone from Mahora popped up to act like Big Damn Heroes. I'm rather disappointed the fights between Setsuna and Tsukuyomi and Poyo and Tatsumiya were cut short and really never elaborated on EVER. I wonder how often he and Fate can get shot through the torso without dying. My largest complaint is probably how cheap death is...as in it never happens or only pseudo happens or happens to INCREDIBLY minor characters, not even minor minor characters die. Not even VILLAINS die! I just can never see the sense of danger in this manga because they don't ever show anything ever biting the dust.

I've mentioned this fan-manga/comic/series thing here a few times already, but I feel like regarding danboou warning Chirei De as its own entity now. It's just that good. I believe it's going to end soon and that's already making me quite sad. I just cannot believe how good the writing, the artwork, the expressions and style this artist has. It's better than that commercialized official manga in the above paragraph, and has infinite more depth than the shallowness that is Hetalia. (I still like those two, but I'm just saying that this is...REALLY GOOD.) The best mixture of sadness, of happiness, of sappiness, of adorably cute and dark. Never too much of either and somehow done in this intricate art style I never thought had so much flexibility. I have never seen the artist handle something awesomely evil or cool or whatever like Nuclear Fusion Utsuho, who will show up pretty soon, but I have high hopes. After all, everything else is near-perfect!
