Afghanis-tan!

Yeah... A Moe Anthropomorphism of AFGHANISTAN of all countries

Quote

Characters

Note that most of the character names are written in Japanese the same way the country they represent is written, only with hiragana instead of katakana. The "-tan" suffix, playing with the "-stan" suffix, present in the names of characters representing Central Asian countries, however, uses katakana. Also note that "Meriken" sounds similar to "american",and "Al-" is present in Al-Queada and Al-Nyaida.

Afghanis-tan (あふがにすタン, Afuganisu-tan?, represents Afghanistan)
The protagonist of the series, an unfortunate girl surrounded by neighbors with strong personalities. According to her character description "she trips and falls a lot." Her design appears to be based on Sharbat Gula, an Afghanistani woman whose iconic photo appeared on the cover of the June, 1985 issue of National Geographic.

Pakis-tan (ぱきすタン, Pakisu-tan?, represents Pakistan)

Boastful, and often feels lonely, especially without Kashmir. Likes Afghanis-tan.

Uzbekis-tan (うずべきすタン, Uzubekisu-tan?, represents Uzbekistan)

Stubborn, and a sore loser. Often quarrels with Pakis-tan. Idolizes "Russia onee-sama".

Tajikis-tan (たじきすタン, Tajikisu-tan?, represents Tajikistan)

A salt-of-the-earth Edokko type, quick to argue and quick to make up. Has girlish tastes.

Kyrgyzs-tan (きるぎすタン, Kirugisu-tan?, represents Kyrgyzstan)

Quick-thinking and sharp-tongued. Always riding on a wooden horse.

Turkmenis-tan (とるくめにすタン, Torukumenisu-tan?, represents Turkmenistan)

A girl with a mysterious personality - one never knows her true thoughts.

Meriken (めりけん, represents the United States?)

The richest person in the neighborhood. Good in a fight, and never doubts her own sense of justice.

Al-Nyaida (あるにゃいだ, Arunyaida?, represents Al-Qaeda)

A group of feral cats causing trouble in the neighborhood. Come to live in Afghanis-tan's house while she is out.

Rofl... Al-Nyaida

Wu tang Forever Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 668	That is officially the craziest thing I have ever seen. But what can you expect from anything Touhou? Why were those hammers on men's bodies? Why did the men have sex in one scene? Why was Cirno freaking out the whole time? I'm so confused... Logged
