User blog comment:NefkaAlice/Has anyone actually read a history book for fun thanks to Hetalia?/@comment-2106344-20101003080020

5th grade I was a big Ancient Egypt history fan before hetalia...but not much interest after that time period (coughyugiohcough)...in 10th grade...I was actually doing EXTREMELY bad in US history >__<;;; I actually hated the subject (still don't really like US history)...I actually only got into Hetalia some time last year in Oct (freshmen year in college) and that got me to read wikipedia info on hetalia characters, and lead me to take a history class in college...British Empire!!! (yes it was a requirement to read the text and other handouts, but being it was all connected to hetalia, I enjoyed it) XD I think Hetalia really got me into history (I also, when writing my notes, write カナ, アメ, or イギ...and there are a fair number of igi pics in my notes too >w<)
