The ED GIFs really were everywhere for a good minute weren't they?
They knew their market.

Just wait for season 3 haha, who knows what they'll do. ED 2 went full furry mode DxD style so what next?

I watched it.

Spoiler

I'm gonna start this show. Seems fun.

Do it! Lol. I tried to watch it about a year ago and couldn't get into it. Then a couple of months ago I decided to give it another shot and I ended up binge watching both seasons in a matter of days. The show isn't as bad as some people may say and it can be down right hilarious at times.

And Rias is bestest waifu.

Maybe Ass dances are just too far across that Chocolate culture line for Japan to care?

Japanese people will color their skin to be darker to be closer to their image of black culture in America, the fact that they're willing to go that far but aren't twerking seems off to me.

Korea on the other hand...

I'm truly shocked that there's no mad rush to be the first to have Twerking in an anime. Of all the strange twerking combos I have seen that has always been the one I most wanted if only for the lolz.

It's anime inspired, but Sym-Bionic Titan already has them beat.

JPlatformer, JRPG, Chibi, VN, SRPG, SHMUP, Moe.

Is he trying to get big in Japan? P.S I loved the video. It's fucking awesome.

 

[Crash Station]

Dude talking like Kumagawa with the creeper stare. Wish that was intentional, but probably not.

 

[FO-totality]

Is this a part of your plan

More than a couple anime themed music videos coming out lately. Time for a 00 boom or are artists trying to get that niche?

There are also more manga/anime movies coming out than for a long time before, even L'oreal has a manga eye shadow in big-ass stores. I think anime/manga is just becoming enough of a common thing that people who make shit realize there's at least a few people, primarily the teenagers, who are into it.

 

[Kaako]

Ahaha Pharrell wtf...

 

[Dio]

It's sad that the reason this video makes me laugh my ass off is because there's a girl with a ponite literally named Ponite.

 

[Firemind]

Oh my.

Pharrell-senpai noticed me. YATTA.

 

[Mariolee]

I want some moe.

Whack as fuck.

I guess this level of anime is still "new" for the audience of his music or something.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

That's pretty awesome, I'm giving it my seal of approval.

 

[victreeb3l]

I want a twerking battle anime with lots of girls and fanservices. Like YugiOh but they battle with their asses

Special attacks and shit too

 

[Hemi-PoweredDrone]

I liked it, had a sort of bizarre charm.

* ´¯*.¸¸.*´¯* So kawaii *´¯*.¸¸.*´¯ *

Holy crap I loved it!

It's only a matter of time before we get Pharrell appearances in doujinshi now. There's more than a few ways to use a hat that size you know........

 

[FaintDeftone]

I thought it was pretty awesome. The song itself is MUCH better than that obnoxious Happy song that won't go away.

You're the artist. You do it

Ditch the lolis; everything else is wonderful.

Ditch the looks and you have 14 seconds of video.

 

[Vandova]

I'm not a big Pharrel fan, but I have to admit the song was catchy, and the video was unexpectedly cool.

You need to post it so he can be enlightened. Sometimes I feel like Japan solely upholds the 'you can find anything on the internet' rule.

 

[Pancakes]

Pharrell went full moe. You never go full moe.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

I hope more artists follow suit.

(ﾉ◕ヮ&#9685ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

I hate moe but I liked the video overall.

Didn't the girls look way too similar to the Madoka cast though?

 

[Mechanized]

Despite some hilariously creepy bits, I think the video is pretty cool, its like mass visual spectacle overload. Song is pretty good too.

 

[GK86]

That hat annoys me to no end. Why the fuck does he wear it non-stop?

 

[GalacticAE]

Pharrell can't hide his love for the 2d and longer
This is video is cool BTW. Fact of life.

Transcendent stuff right here.

I never thought I'd see these two things together.

 

[Neol]

Pharell anime now.

Alright song and dig the style of it of course people wont really like it cause chinese cartoons. I'm loving the game sprites tho.

Looks a bit like Ume Aoki's art style in general even though she had nothing to do with it.

I don't really get the anime stigma. Most people who aren't really into anime or familiar with it are usually blissfully unaware of moe and its general creepiness, so I'm not sure what the issue is. (I still think it really sucks that for some Moe defines the entire medium.)

With that said, I'm honestly more surprised the cultural-appropriation-police hasn't thrown a tantrum over the video yet.

 

[sixteen-bit]

kawaii as fuck

 

[Extollere]

You're the artist. You do it

Errr... I'm gonna leave it to the professionals.

 

[NewFresh]

[foxuzamaki]

Yo, this is anime as fuck

did Cajun direct this video?

 

[Train of Midnight]

Something something sarcastic implications of sexualizing 10 year olds

Still kind of loved it, though.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Bruh, what?

Stop ruining this album for me Pharell (more than you have already). I swear to god if you do some weird shit for Lost Queen I'm done with you

If its blonde hair then its 50/50, it could just have been a stylistic choice but sometimes its a girl thats "half japanese", if its white hair however, almost 100% of the time hat girl is foreign and most likely specifically from russia or somewhere european.

 

[ghostface pizzakid]

Whoever directed this video is a huge Sega fan.. I see Wonder boy and Fantasy Zone references... probably more too

 

[InfiniteNine]

Not wide enough, but it does look similar to someone's art style. I'm not familiar with the series or artist though so I can't identify it.

Sadly these days "Moe" is one of the defining points of a majority of anime and its not gonna go away anytime soon.

Feel like the stigma is also due to the weird/over the top people who enjoy anime. Doesnt really give good impressions when your saying jap words while doing weird motions.
