Following the reaching of one million views back in October 08, the song “Black★Rock Shooter” has finally hit two million views on Nico Nico Douga on the date of June 13th 2009 at 23:53 hours Japan Time, making it the 6th Miku only song to achieve that feat on the Nico Nico Douga Two Million Views Videos list.

More information behind the story of the song as well as B★RS videos and images will be posted so do continue reading after the break!

Here’s the original version of B★RS as shown below, along with the credits for the song.

Credits:

  • Lyrics: ryo/supercell
  • Compose: ryo/supercell
  • Arrange: ryo/supercell
  • Original Character Design: huke

On the contrary to popular belief, Black★Rock Shooter is not a fanmade character of Miku. She is an original character by huke. The story of the song tells about the character, Black★Rock Shooter, having lost something important and tries to search for it, and in the process tells of her struggle with despair and hopelessness. Eventually the character gains hope as she moves on to the future with new found courage.

And here’s the 3DPV version of B★RS, which was made by AnomaroP, the same producer who has created 3DPV version of Miku’s songs “Packaged” and “Saihate”. In this video the arch-nemesis of B★RS, known as “The Dead Master” is also revealed.

Now we move to some of the fanart images created by Pixiv users as posted below. Enjoy!

  1. Congrats to the video on the honor!

    Black Rock Shooter is probably my favorite Miku song, and one of the most badass character designs ever. I can't wait to get that gorgeous figure!

    1. Yeah, the B★RS is one awesome figure, and it's pretty cool as well. I pre-ordered it as soon as the pre-order window opens here. =D
