Featured Fan Artist: Afghanistan wins God Len's cutest country award

I'm not talking about the actual country. No, that place is dry and not Wi-Fi ready. What I'm talking about is Afuganisu-tan, the cute representation of the entire country. Awhile back, the great people of AnimeSuki translated a 4-koma comic strip called Afuganisu-tan, which is about the history of little Afuganisu-tan and her friends from around those parts. This story is supposed to educate and enlighten us history-less ruffians about Afghanistan's history, but it just makes me want to hug Afghanistan instead.

The story ran to its conclusion back in 2005, with a good 'nice boat' ending. But I think the story isn't finished quite yet. In fact, the creator of this comic has finished the Afghanistan arc. Why not make the whole world into "-tans" instead? That's a great idea. Get to work, Japan. But, for now, read the comic, which can be seen here. The real website is down on bandwidth, so it's no good to us. Check out some samples in the gallery below.
