About
BLOOD+ Ending Parodies (Japanese: BLOOD+EDパロ) refer to a series of parody video remixes for an ending credit movie in the Japanese TV anime BLOOD+ produced by Production I.G.[1] The ending movie had been a popular subject for MAD and hand-drawn animated videos in the Japanese video sharing service Nico Nico Douga (NND) between 2007 and 2009.
Origin
The TV anime series BLOOD+ was aired from October 2005 until September 2006, and it has 4 different ending credit movies. Among them, almost all of parody videos in this series refer to the 1st ending credit movie consisting of still-illustrations only. It was used until the first 15 episodes and its theme song "Kataritsugu Koto" (語り継ぐこと; lit. "The Things I Pass Down") is sung by a Japanese singer Chitose Hajime.[2]
Spread
In late 2007, parody video creations for that ending credit movie started to be uploaded to NND, which includes MADs and hand-drawn animations. Due to its quite convenient editing style which just requires several still-illustrations for reproducing, a vast amount of parody videos became to be posted to the video hub site.[3] Meanwhile, the videos, particularly MAD videos, in this series became to be removed from NND by the copyright claim from Epic Records Japan, the copyright holder for the theme song formerly known as Epic/Sony Records[4], after many Japanese media companies started strictly removing online creations for the copyright infringement in 2009. Because of this, afterward people make no attempt to create the parody videos so much.
