For any ACG (Anime, Comics, Games) title aiming for popularity, a strong logo is absolutely crucial. A memorable name needs an eye-catching design – though sometimes, "eye-catching" takes on a whole new meaning!
Take the popular idol-raising game "The Idolmaster Million Live!," a spin-off from the iconic "Idolmaster" series. Its title logo, "THE IDOLM@STER MILLION LIVE!," boasts a striking design and vibrant colors. But what if someone saw it as... a chikuwa (a type of Japanese fish cake)?
It all started when X (formerly Twitter) user Mimiu (@mimiu_P) posted that the "Million Live!" logo looked suspiciously like chikuwa. At first, we weren't entirely convinced, but the more you stare, the more it makes sense...
Then, another X user, Goat (@goat_pp), saw Mimiu's post and totally agreed! So, what did they do? They went ahead and recreated the title logo using *actual* chikuwa.
▼ Seriously, the resemblance is uncanny!
And just like that, the internet was forever changed. No one could unsee the chikuwa! But beyond the hilarious logo discovery, users were mostly showering Goat with praise for their incredible knife skills and sheer genius. Who would've thought to actually *carve* the logo out of chikuwa? As for the leftover bits and the chikuwa-logo itself? Goat confirmed they were all deliciously eaten, even sharing a pic of the fried, nori-dusted chikuwa-logo aftermath!
