Touhou Bad Apple PV made it to CNN!

touhoumadnessWe all should know the power of Zun by now. He created a game universe called Touhou (wiki here) all by himself: programmed, composed music, drew the art, wrote the script, everything.

The power of fans fueled his work to a tremendous amount of doujin fan videos and illustrations that are aplenty on the Internet. Some fans created a PV called Bad Apple, which became a big hit in NicoNicoDouga and YouTube. I even made a post about it.

It was the number one most viewed video in YouTube for weeks upon its release. Then someone got nuts and printed the whole thing to make a stop-motion video. That video became popular too.

And very recently CNN picked up on it.

I know I told you many times, but I’m gonna say it again: Never underestimate the power of fans!

The stop motion video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=240Vq6tIxio. The camera angles follow the video to the tee, amazing! Someone sure had a lot of time in his hands.

    The stop-motion video feels very composited. As if they just added that bit map file count just to make you feel it was really done by hand.
