Animeme: Marisa Stole The Precious Thing

The virus that spread like wildfire. IOSYS is famous for making flash animation shots to go along with their doujin music for Touhou, but this remains one of their most memorable work. Before the legend though, the theme was originally in Perfect Cherry Blossom, the seventh Touhou shooter game. Actually, the animation didn't make a lot of sense, neither does the song itself which is full of Engrish lyric mockery. Despite that, the song is a tremendous hit, and it may have kickstarted the once-limited doujin music industry into one that can take on the big guys. This song is still on my music playlist after more than a year. It's catchy, it's cute, and it's mindless fun.
