A little late to this but 10 years ago Hatena shutdown. The animations on the service inspired me a lot and I help morphed me into who I am now.
The drawings in the back are stills from old animations of mine. I couldn't be part of Hatena back then but when Flipnote 3D came out I made up for lost time by making animations then uploading them to youtube.
Even though I miss Hatena, I think it left on a high note. Thank you Hatena and thank you Flipnote.
Katmiku’s species, the kitari, are crepuscular, meaning that they posses night vision, it activates within dark enviroments and their irises expand across their sclera, covering them completely, their pupils expand with the iris but shrink back when there’s enough light.
in the 1930s, walt disney productions did not, in fact, use celluloids to create their animations. the use of cels in their animations is a commonly believed myth. in reality, the talented animators used Flipnote Studio 3D for Nintendo 3DS
