PORTUGAL!!!?????

YO OKAY SO HIMA'S DOING A HETAWEEN EVENT THIS YEAR WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY A BIG DEAL AND SINCE I REALLY HAVEN'T SEEN ANY POSTS DEALING WITH THE REQUEST FORM YET I THOUGHT I'D MAKE ONE MYSELF

SO THIS IS THE FORM:

WHICH CAN BE FOUND AT THIS LOVELY LINK.

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO, LIKE MYSELF, HAVEN'T LEARNED JAPANESE, HERE'S THE BEST TRANSLATION OF THE FORM I FOUND. THE ONLY THING NOT TRANSLATED ON THAT IS THE COUPLE OF SENTENCES UNDER SUBJECT, WHICH, IF I UNDERSTAND THE JUNK GOOGLE TRANSLATE SPIT OUT AT ME, BASICALLY SAYS "you don't need to put much thought into this particular menu; just click what seems closest."

SO THIS IS WHAT I SUBMITTED, IN FULL "senpai-notice-me!" VOICE:

(Please note that the second blank is email. It's required, so fill it in. Sorry, y'all don't get my email that easy.)

ANYWAY, AFTER YOU SUBMIT, IT TAKES YOU TO A PAGE TO REVIEW YOUR SUBMISSION. CLICK THE LEFTMOST BUTTON TO SUBMIT FOR GOOD AND THE CENTER BUTTON TO EDIT. ONCE YOU PRESS SUBMIT THAT SECOND TIME, YOU GET A CUTE PICTURE OF ITALY AND YOU'RE DONE. TADA! CONGRATULATIONS!

HERE ARE SOME OTHER USEFUL LINKS FOR THE EVENT:

time zone difference chart from Tokyo to lots of other cities if you're planning to watch live

useful dA post from the '11 Christmas event that, with the exception of the countdown, still has relevant info

scanlation index of like 85% of existing Hetalia strips - prior Hetaweens are under "Events"

Kitawiki, which is by far the best Hetalia/Himaruya wiki I've come across and is just generally awesome and Prussia-approved

the request form again if you missed the link at the top of the post somehow or just don't feel like scrolling up

ALSO HERE'S SOME GIFS I'VE COLLECTED BECAUSE WHY NOT:

ENJOY THE EVENT (AND DON'T SPAM HIMA-SAN TOO MUCH)! PLEASE REBLOG FOR ALL YOUR HETALIAN FOLLOWERS!

so I opened it up and look at the filename
