The phenomenon started out when an artist by the name of huke posted an illustration on his blog titled black rock shooter in december of 2007.The illustration inspired Ryo of the band -supercell (the band that first used and popularized Hatsune Miku)to write a song of the same name on their album.With the help of artist huke the black rock shooter music video became wildly popular among vocaloid,and anime fans alike...but they wanted something more,more then a 5 minute music video.In July of 2010 the black rock shooter OVA(original video animation) was released. This 50 minute anime movie helped to expand the black rock shooter universe for its numerous fans. The animation focuses on the life of two junior high girls who become friends... while at the same time, an alternate story following the BRS character is also presented.
(*for any of you non anime fans out there roughly translated im saying ...depressed junior highschool girls blossoming friendship with slight lesbian undertones/ hardcore goth bitches with massive guns and skull minions.... If that sounds intriguing...ya might want to check it out>videos below<)
The reaction to just one single drawing has be astronomical figurines,music,an ova and there is also rumblings of a black rock shooter RPG game coming out on sony japan network.... anyways i get what its all about and hope thanks to this post you have a better idea of what drives those robot/ computer gods in japan crazy.
