Azumanga Daioh... in ASCII art?!

Some insane Japanese guy made this "music video" entirely in ASCII art. I've converted it to a GIF and uploaded it to YTMND. Enjoy! Note that a fast computer and Firefox are recommended to avoid sync issues.

If this was yours it would have been gold. Whoever did it...it was gold!

I've actually tried to track down the guy who's made this. I was referred to a Japanese site, but apparently the guy doesn't run the site anymore, and he's pretty much disappeared. As to the "not my work" comment? 99% of the stuff on YTMND isn't the work of the poster... even the high-rated stuff. For example, the Blue Ball Machine was not posted by SA, the folks who made it, IIRC.

Also, if you're having sync issues, Firefox appears to play this better than IE.

It's not ASCII if it's got katakana in it. 1 star

Pretty awesome. You need a better quality MP3 of Princess Bride and the syncing needs work. No reason a 4000 X2 Athlon with 2 gigs of ram running a fresh install of Firefox should lag like that, bub.

These two sites must never mix. Like oil and water. Your mixing them is a blasphemy

Hooooooolysh*t. I'm going to five this just for the shear immensity of time and effort that had to go into it, reguardless of the poster. A masterpiece like this deserves no less. Azumanga Daioh isn't really all that great though.

1'd because anime sucks, even if you're making fun of it.

+5 for good Azu and sync. If any of you downvote for lack of credit given/stolen work, just... leave.

@moonbunnychan I apologize, but I have been unable to find the actual original source for this (as is true of most things found on imageboards). If you can find the original, I can credit it.

That isn't the "original"--its simply reposted on an imageboard anyways. I know for a fact that it goes back further than that ;)

The animation has way too much effort put into it, for a show based on simplicity. Yay.

Hahaha, I just saw an old comment of mine from 2008 where I ALSO noticed the beastiality. And back when I remembered the name of the dog, Tadakichi-san. Keke. It's fun to interact with oneself when one has no friends :-p
