3:06 actually that is not pikacu.. that is "Mokona Modoki" from Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles.

[@dominiclavondane9967]

Probably Mokona of Rayearth considering the age of this meme/dance and Rayearth was more popular and older at the time. And the fact that CLAMP uses characters over and over again.

First I discovered the song today, then I found out it was a meme since forever.

i can always rely on knowyourmeme to find old songs i used to like and know

[@voyan38]

I actually like the song. Never thought I could be into Jpop but then this and Persona 4 came and healed those hopes.

[@MachFiveFalcon]

After interest reignited for "Plastic Love" 5 years ago, I think it's high time this classic J-pop meme has a resurgence as well!

[@LetsNeverPlayAgain]

Really spot on explanation this time around, guys. Didn't leave a single thing out.

[@LonerChief]

The worlds best trend ever. Truly a moment in time.

It's crazy how this was partly started by LamazeP, who also happens to be a popular vocaloid artist. I didn't realize he had such an impact on so many things

3:04 That was Mokuna not Pikachu.......some scientists you guys are...

[@yuutaro6089]

Jay Spratt Yes. That was Mokona of Magic Knight Rayearth and Tsubasa Chronicle.

[@MrThetronica]

Jay Spratt Some weaboo you are. Mokona is from Magical Knights Rayearth, that one is specifically from the other Clamp series Tsubasa Resivour chronicles and is given to him from Yuko in xxxHolic; whose name is Soel (Mokona Modoki - Psuedo Mokona; as they are copies of the original). And for the record the black one is called Larg.

[@MlKlWAY]

+MrThetronica just noticed mokona instead pikachu... then read your post. RESPECT!

[@theblack5kull]

MrThetronica I corrected the video first, correcting the corrector is some straight up inception shit. I'm not even a huge fan of clamp, ive only seen season one of xxxholic so chill.

He *_used to_* be a Vocaloid. Crypton Future Media left the Vocaloid engine and made one of their own, called Piapro Studio.
