The ninth episode of fancy pantsu anime Bakemonogatari has induced an epiphany amongst loli-lovers and 2ch denizens alike (if indeed there is any difference between these two groups), showing as it does plenty of young girls stripping, coupled with an unexpected appearance of a familiar meme…
The conclusion of K-ON! has brought a new epithet for the series, “K-ON! is Our Raison D’être”, which has been accepted as official by 2ch.
However, there are many other such anime truisms circulating on 2ch, and a list of them has been circulating for years. Periodically, new anime are added to the list by a decision making process which is not fully understood, but as it has given rise to such self-evident (to 2ch at any rate) truisms as “Clannad is Life“, “Touhou is Religion” and “Hatsune Miku is the Light of Truth” it is clearly worthy of further study.
Below you can see the full version of the list in its latest iteration, fully translated.
Yukkuri fans will be delighted to know that the deformed Touhou duo of Reimu and Marisa will be getting a 3D incarnation, in the form of these stuffed toys created by circle Phantasm Screen.
As you can see above, Melon Books will be releasing them on the first of December, with both small and medium sizes available.
Some of the Touhou girls have a reputation for lazy indolence, and this is evident from this fine tegaki MAD we see attaining massive popularity on NicoNico Douga; it has already reached 435,000 playbacks in the week since it was posted, so it looks set to pass the half million mark very soon, and then onto the million mark.
Behold ゆっくりでいいさ / Yukkuri de ii sa (Best to take it easy):
The latest tegaki usatei kanbu version appears. If it sounds like nonsense, that’s because it is – descriptions don’t really do either the derivatives or the originals much justice, so without further adieu, onto the videos.
looks like you've been updating pages were you hosted videos from Nico... you're so diligent...... More
From the Touhou Wiki entry on the subject of Yukkuri: A meme involving giant, disfigured Touhou heads. It originated on 2ch in early 2008 when an Anon tried to make a Shift_JIS portrait of Reimu and... More
A comprehensive gallery of ぐぬぬ / Gununu images has fallen into my hands. For those who quite understandably don’t have a clue about this, it is an amusing visual meme which spread from 2ch, with the originating Ana Coppola (of Ichigo Marshmallow) screen above spawning many hundreds of variations with different characters illustrated in the same style and with the same compelling expression (of what exactly I couldn’t say).
