Wolhye Auclair - Name references

I always found it interesting that combination of the names Wolhye (Korean name) and Auclair (French-sounding name), because it harbors a lot of references:
- Wolhye (월혜): Wol (월) means "moon" and Hye (혜) means "bright"; so it means "moonlight"
- Auclair: "au clair" means "bright"; there is a famous French lullaby named "Au clair de la lune" or "Moonlight", which introduces Pierrot, a sad clown.

Wolhye has a crying moon-shaped earring, which not only refers to her own remorse and sadness, but also to the character of Pierrot.

Sleepacross made her researches very seriously. Hats off!

If Hand Jumper was an anime voiced by Japanese Voice Actors, who would they voice ? (My opinion) - Part 4

Internment of German Americans during WW2 in TMITHC

During WW2, we knew that Japanese were sent to internment camps, but also German and Italian American civilians, as they were considered as "enemy agents". Roughly 15.000 Germans were detained in these camps (and among them, Fritz Julius Kuhn, the president of the American Bund and a notorious pro-Nazi American, who gave his name to Thomas' school).

I wanted to ask you how you would describe the moment these German detainees would be liberated by the Nazis.

In the series, the Japanese-Americans were liberated by the Japanese but were considered lower than their Japanese counterparts for "surrendering" and were labelled as "traitors".

Do you think the Germans would consider their German counterparts as "traitors" as well for being detained ?

I posted a new episode of my comic on Webtoon (and made lots of references to Madagascar)

Summary: a Malagasy scout, Daniel, gained superpowers thanks to badges he earned and now uses them to fight against crime in Madagascar.

Actually, the second arc of my comic is beginning: the Elections Arc. I wanted here to emphasize elements related to power present in Madagascar, such as King Andrianampoinimerina, the heritage of colonization, as well as corruption in Madagascar regarding elections.
