youtube reruns

Eh, nothing really to report today. Some old YouTube videos that I’ve linked to in the past. Well, maybe a few new ones.

(A few readers e-mailed me letting me know of the new Ranka dance steps. Sadly, I cannot seem to get this feed going nor the ones for the Office Lady sketches. Someone, please, put them on YouTube.)

*shakes head* Better have some a Saber rubbing mini-game.

Now this is how you sell a video game system. Much better than those creepy PS3 ads. Now excuse me, I’m going to be bidding on some Panzer Dragoon Saga on eBay.

The craptastic OP that Fox Kids used for Escaflowne. No wonder it didn’t even make it past halfway. Is it even in the same league/planet/universe as Promises Not Necessary?

I think 4 readers would actually understand this video, and that’s why I’m posting it. Boom. Outta here.

I think I got about a dozen people asking me if I had seen this video. Yes, yes I have. My only thought is why is this only one episode? I was under the impression it would be more, like 38 episodes more and carry an NC-17 rating. I’m highly disappointed.

Have some delicious triangular thighs.

This was Kyonko before there was a Kyonko.

Probably still my favorite Haruhi Suzumiya parody. The genius was that it went up almost immediately after the OP first aired. The goggles… they do nothing!!!

When I originally posted this one, I didn’t get a chance to comment on it. But this video is spectacular. The comedy level is off-the-charts, especially the last 30 seconds when The Hoff is chewing on the fish and going nuts. Songs like this one are exactly why he’s the hero of Germany. And, of course, this music video is the Code Geass R2 of the music video industry. Think about that for a second.

(Andohbytheway, those are his daughters flying around in the back… creepy…)

  1. >>My only thought is why is this only one episode? I was under the impression it would be more, like 38 episodes more and carry an NC-17 rating. I’m highly disappointed.

    Because that’s the end of Tomoyo’s route from the original Clannad game?

    I can see KyoAni doing a 13-episode Tomoyo After series sometime in the future. The game has a crap ending, though.

  2. I’m hooked on a feeling….for you. *sniff*
    AND OMG SECOND!

  3. I hate Segata Sanshiro. Not by any fault of his own—the guy’s badass—but because I have a friend who is completely obsessed with Sega. He shows that exact video to people every chance he gets. Blech.

  4. Kaisos: Well the DVD-only Episode 24 of CLANNAD IS Tomoyo after, or at least the start of it (I’m guessing up to the point where Tomoya graduates and becomes… a garbarge collector. Hellooooooooo blue collar…).

    And LOL at the Haruhi/Higurashi shop. A Flower in Hell is really appropriate for a Higurashi OP… Makes me want to rewatch the second season again.

  5. A few comments on the videos:
    Second video: Anyone know how to blot out a specific two minutes of a person’s life. I’m under the impression that alcohol does too much area effect damage to the brain.

    Third: Thank you Segata Sanshiro. For what it’s worth, the sega saturn was a good console, just ahead of its time.

    Fourth: I actually like the trance techno. Obviously saying the same word over and over again is cheezy but I still like the music. Mind this good be nostalgia so I may be biased.

    Last: Dear god. It only took forty seconds of it before I decided that I should try alcohol after all.

  6. As always, people will put videos on YouTube….

    Cute Ranka-puppy Chibi Warning!

    (I actually just downloaded it and was going to add it myself, but found that first)

  7. Also, I should add – watch out for crossing Chibi VF’s…..

  8. Oh dear, skater dude is under the category “Pets & Animals”

  9. … How’d I know he’d break out the Hoff, given any excuse. There’s broken, then there’s Hoff-broken. Germany and Jason are examples of the latter. Now excuse me while I return to my morning obeisances to the God-Empress.

  10. I think I died a little inside after watching all those. And I’d gladly do it again.

  11. P.S. WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING AT 3:18 IN THE LAST VID????

  12. >>(I’m guessing up to the point where Tomoya graduates and becomes… a garbarge collector. Hellooooooooo blue collar…).

    Heh.

    Actually, from what I’ve read on AS, it goes until the exact point the Tomoyo route ends… which is only a setup for Tomoyo After.

    WHAT. WHATWHATWHAT.

    Was this on Japanese radio or something? The single isn’t out until the 25th. I want my Rankapuppy in high quality, and I want it now. :(

  14. Brett Myers takes the cake here. If only he could pitch as well as he could talk smack right now. Then my Phillies could be 20 games over .500.

    Boom. Outta here. Epic.

  15. Is it me or does anyone else hear Lulu’s voice in the last few seconds of the Clannad OVA clip/teaser thingie…?

  16. I guess Major League Baseball should see about getting its money back on those anger management classes, huh?

  17. >>Is it me or does anyone else hear Lulu’s voice in the last few seconds of the Clannad OVA clip/teaser thingie…?

    Yup, it’s Jun Fukuyama.

    Oh god, all the jokes people are going to make…

  18. Segata Sanshirou is a ridiculously brilliant advertisement. I almost couldn’t contain my laughter in office. XD

  19. WTF?! youtube removed almost all videos already. Are they on a crusade against anime videos?

  20. Which videos are you talking about? They all work fine here…

  21. I actually like the music from the Fox Kids Escaflowne on its own terms, even though it is a symptom of the “americanization” that the show went through: shorter for more ads, more violent, less ambiguity, no romance.

    Even though it was the first “real” anime series I saw, even I could tell they had butchered it.
