About

壁砕き (Wall Breaker) is a short GIF animation showing a stick figure attacking a wall with a very wide variety of weapons and an absurd amount of force. The animation lacks a commonly agreed upon English language title. While "wall breaker" is the closest translation, searches for "wall breaker" yield mixed results. Typically, titles referring to this animation or other recreations of the same concept contain the words "stick figure" and "wall."

Origin

壁砕き originated from the website Multilockon. The animation was created on December 7, 2003 using "EasyToon Setagaya Branch", an updated version of Keijiro Takahashi's "EasyToon", a program that is used to create short black and white animations.
