Got asked early on by someone not in costume at all "Are you a furry?" I said "Uh, yeah" expecting a negative response and he said "Oh thank god I thought I was the only one, I keep seeing people in animal costumes who aren't furries."
Lol, for some reason this is cute. I was expecting something negative too, before I got to the end of the sentence.

I don't get Hetalia's appeal either. I really don't. Even if everyone's in it to slash, they all look exactly the same. I don't get Ouran either, but that's probably because I hate harem/reverse harems and anime that take place in schools.
