@Tomberry : There are multiple famous characters from the anime “Lucky Star”. I always recognize Misao because she’s featured in many Megaman ゼERO parodies but Konata’s “Timotei” has a lot more success. For Kenshin, it’s part of the celibrity of the “futae-no-kiwami” (フタエノキワミ、アッー!) move. I don’t know much more than the current article and 1983parrothead’s comment below : http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/futae-no-kiwami

There seems to be quite some problem actually in Japan. They voted a ban on “improper manga & anime for the youngs” Source (SFW) : http://otakudom.com/2010/12/13/tokyo-anime-manga-ban-passes/ You can thank this man : Shintarō Ishihara http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CD30N76gtlc/SF5gcPSeKeI/AAAAAAAADmA/K3TMy9Csw0Y/s400/31.jpg Now maybe there’ll be MADs of him :P

“Make this image ####” is something usually covered in another website (NSFW) : sankakucomplex.com I don’t know if it’s officially called “Viper challenge” only at sankakucomplex. I’ll try browsing some forums and see what I can get.

@1983parrothead : I can confirm at least there’s a HUGE number of works for something that is not that old. First videos tagged date from June 2010 (at least, ones that are not wrongly tagged " エルシャダイ "). There is currently +1600 videos on NND tagged " エルシャダイ ": – sorted by date : http://www.nicovideo.jp/tag/エルシャダイ?sort=f – sorted by popularity : http://www.nicovideo.jp/tag/エルシャダイ?sort=v Don’t mind the first one, since it seems to be the original videogame trailer, but already the first derivative work...

Nice link 1983parrothead :) By the way, is “El Shaddai – エルシャダイ ～アセンション オブ ザ メタトロン～” sounds familiar to you ? It’s face has made an article on kotaku recently, featuring it as a japanese game meme : http://kotaku.com/5661777/ascension-of-a-japanese-gaming-meme/gallery/

I can’t help you on this one. I usually copy/paste things that I mostly google translate. You may find more solutions here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_input_methods

@Ramses : Wersther’s Original is : ヴェルタースオリジナル (literaly Verutasuorijinaru, google translated inc.) The article from NND encyclopedia : What I don’t know is why he’s referred to “魔王 / Devil” (google translate of that article : Verutasuorijinaru ’s uncle Isan the " devil "is sometimes called). Something maybe related to the mirror effect in the video, where he lifts his hand holding the candy, which when mirrored looks like Satan ? :/

Whoa… thank you mona_jpn ! I think I could get only the “banana powdery” with my current knowledge & intelligence ^^. I also remarked the disappearance of Death Note MADs. Their destruction is, as you said, less active on youtube, and there is so much removed from NND that it impacts its popularity as a meme. I’ve posted a comment on his article so that he should be directly redirected to your post.

I think they’re as much original as the Lucky star opening dance (Motteke! Sailor Fuku). At some point, they decided of a choregraphy that mimick the parts where they dance and they complete it with something else when the characters are not dancing, but I’ve not seen many of these. I see more works based on the shadows and the music rather than the dance itself : - Bad Hamburger (Donaludo version) : http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/watch?v=Ed-Xzor0Pvg - Bad Aniki (Wrestling series version) :...

The original song is from a Touhou game : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9roQop40DB8 I’ve copy pasted the description : Song: Bad Apple!! Artist: ZUN Stage 3 theme from Touhou 4: Lotus Land Story. Then, the song has been remixed by Alstroemeria Records (I don’t know when), which has been used in some mads Personnaly, the first time i’ve heared that remix was on a idolmaster medley : http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x78as5_nicoms-medley-2008-autumn-version_music (go to 1:34 to hear it briefly) PS : I am...

I’ve still not updated the article because I searched a little more on Hissu Amoto San. I think there’s a new character emerging from the Hissu Amoto San series : Ooshima Masayuki (google translation of " 大島正幸 ") This character is shown only on a Future 2 video, presented by Masami Hisamoto. He’s remarkable because he’s bald. I don’t know if he says anything because most of the videos shows only him, without saying a word. If I follow the google translation, he’s used in MAD in slow motion and the sound...

Hi Tomberry, Not sure about that one, but this seems to follow the same pattern as Fukkireta. Someone posted a strange choregraphy and then, everyone seems to follow it. This article mentions it : http://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/ぽっぴっぽー Also, first videos uploaded on NND are from 2008/02/12 (or so it seems). First one has above one million views and there are OVER ONE THOUSAND videos under this tag.

@mona_jpn : Thanks again ! I’ve seen some of スーパーカズヤ (Super Kazuya) videos but never noticed there were so many of them, Maybe because I can’t read japanese descriptions and comments (I rarely use Google translate, except for searching tags) I’ve found another tag some time ago but didn’t tried to search info about this : 定岡ウェーブ It’s the shower scene from one of the movies Billy Herrington starred in where he looks at a man (is he called Sada Okazima ?)in the shower. The variation here is centered on the...

@mona_jpn : I think we see more MMD as a “program” than a meme. I don’t know if you could see VOCALOID as a meme itself, for example. Though, there is a Nico Nico Douga entry which is not a meme by itself, but might be useful to regroup anything that has similar content/theme. About Fukkireta, someone already started an article (you already saw it ^^) : http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/fukkireta-吹-っ-切-れ-たNND main tag : http://www.nicovideo.jp/tag/吹_っ_切_れ_たNND encyclopedia : http://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/吹 っ 切 れ...

Hi everyone, long time not posted… I’ve been a little more in Billy Herrington videos, and encountered a new serie called “こするだけシリーズ” (Kinkaku ?) Originally, it’s a men rubbing a towel between his legs, while a rather disturbing soundtrack is played. Like Billy, he’s called a fairy (sounds like gay here. Like how Billy was named “Fairy of the forest”) There are a just a few videos on youtube of this : - Green exit guy : http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/watch?v=3_9QY7m9SxQ - Hatsune Miku :...

Is there a way to make youtube playlists without relying on youtube ? I take for example the way multiple videos are displayed in encyclopediadramatica. I tried javascripting a bit, but the server has already some scripts handling them, but they make the pages very long… (that’s why I took ED as an example as how it should be displayed ^^) It could be very useful when you want to group videos by meme types (For example, Masami Hisamoto can be “Gourmet raced”, “Kotetchan DESU-ed” or “more generally-ED”.)

@omniputance : I though I’ve explained you how to find them on your own :/ Anyway, combine the relevant tags to your interest : Ryuuseigun + hissu amoto san = ニコニコ動画流星群 + 必須アモト酸 = http://www.nicovideo.jp/tag/ニコニコ動画流星群 必須アモト酸 Nanairo + hissu amoto san = 七色のニコニコ動画 + 必須アモト酸 = http://www.nicovideo.jp/tag/七色のニコニコ動画 必須アモト酸 I’m sorry I couldn’t have spent more time on knowyourmeme, mostly because i’ve been busy watching NND all the ドナルド videos i’ve missed :(

@mona_jpn : Not yet. I’ve cleaned up the introductions part, for “About”, where I tried to sum up all the anime information besides its plot, and “History”, for how it became a meme since its creation, thanks to the information you provided :) I’ve surfed a bit and found one french user who had some thoughs on it : http://www.fangirl.eu/2009/06/22/anime-impressions-part-71/ I think I must see that episode 35 because that “Dr. Volga, forgive me” is something really important :) What I don’t know is how...

@omniputance : I’ve edited the entry a bit, changed some paragraph titles and some sentences. What bugs me are how the videos are displayed. There should be a way to make playlist without making the page that long :( (I’ve tried javascripting a bit in the page itself, but then it’s a pain to update/edit). Does anyone know if there’s a way to make youtube playlists without having to make the playlist itself on youtube ? (much like encyclopediadramatica) @mona_jpn : I think he already did, considering the...

I’m going to check what I can approve tonight, as long as the awaited update for Masami Hisamoto entry, for adding AIRSOKO, to the happy team of Hisamoto :) EDIT : Any tips on what should be improved ?
