About
"Kiiiihara-kuuuuuuuuun!!" (Japanese: 木ィィィ原くゥゥゥゥゥゥゥゥン!!) is a famous utterance by Accelerator, one of the main characters in a Japanese light novel A Certain Magical Index. Shortly after an episode in the TV anime aired in February 2011, his maddish utterances and laugh became to a popular subject for MAD videos on the Japanese video sharing service Nico Nico Douga (NND).
Origin
"Kiiiihara-kuuuuuuuuun!!" is not a transcript from the anime but an actual line in the Academy City Invasion arc of the novels. The scene where Accelerator provokes Amata Kihara[1], an antagonist in this arc, with this maddish utterance appears on the 9th chapter in the arc included in the 13th volume of the novel released in April 2007. Meanwhile in the TV anime series, other Accelerator's shouts in the battles with Kihara are also called as this line among viewers. The first footage for those "Kiiiihara" utterances is a trailer for the 2nd season which was published in August 2010 (shown below, left). Then, it appeared in 19th-22nd episodes aired on February to March 2011 (shown below, right).
Spread
Accelerator has been a popular subject for fan creations and parodies on NND[2] and pixiv[3] since before, and those mainly closed up his madness and lolicon nature, sometimes dubbed as "Accelolita" (アクセロリータ), which is derived from his relationship with Last Order[4]. In addition to this, this catchphrase joined onto the bandwagon by a MAD video utilizing "What Kind of Tree Is This Tree?", a famous song for TV adverts running over decades. This video was uploaded to NND on February 28th, 2011[5] and had been watched more than 1 million times within its first week. Nowadays "Kiiiihara-kuuuuuuuuun!!" is the most essential vocal resource for the video parodies for that dark hero.[6]
