And for what year that was, it was back in 1995!
Even I just saw that album cover recently as I was writing this as I already knew the reference was coming from now, and I haven't heard of Tatsuro's music as much, but probably I'll give his stuff a listen someday. Not to mention I didn't get much of a colorful background this time around as I didn't wanna search for it, but it certainly does look like one of those memes as you'll see on Pinterest nowadays.
I know it was already days ago as it was recently Laala's birthday as I'm posting this now... But better late than never!
And the next PriPara post will be (as you know it by now), Laala's birthday on how the characters looked like for this year!
As I was scrolling on Pinterest (mainly for templates on there despite I don't have an account as I feel like I don't need to have one), I was also looking up random memes on there and one of them caught my eye on how it looked similar to one of my latest interests...
Well, I guess it pretty much fits if you go something like this: "Whenever someone talks about video games be like" or something like that as you place the meme itself down below the text. Even I know I keep using that one pic on the left side, but look at him! He's just kinda cute in that one that makes me think he's much cuter than those two Pokémon that also appear on that one Famitsu magazine cover from 2018 (in which who are Pikachu and Eevee cropped out to focus more on you-know-who).
Plus, not to mention that the meme that I've found can be viewed here.
Yeah, I think I can tell that this is gonna be it for the second opening for my Necky the Fox anime idea. Even that "The Name Is Necky" song is like a parody of those Daddy DJ and Basshunter songs (excluding the "Funny DJ" song) at some point.
While I don't have the lyrics written out as I'm writing this (and the same that can be said for that "The Name Is Necky" song), there are gonna be some lyrical changes from the original song that it's gonna parody off on, but at the same time it's gonna be something like the original on how some of the lyrics are kept (possibly or not).

Yep, already thinking about another possible ending song for my Necky the Fox anime that I will talk about more in the future. Even I think this song would fit the show's theme. And it wound be nice to see more Eiffel 65 songs would get more noticed someday that isn't "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" for sure.
Plus, I'm tagging Zorotl (the blue alien guy that you might've seen before within a few of Eiffel 65's music videos as he also appears on this single cover) alongside with the fact that he sang one of E65's songs that was unreleased AKA "I Wanna Be".

Since it's near to the 40th anniversary of Weekly Famitsu (as of next year as I'm writing this out), I basically did this evolution design chart of Necky on how he changed over the years. And not only I'm showcasing on how Necky changed, but also a part of Susumu Matsushita's art style on how Necky was drawn to be!
Oh, as for the middle one that isn't from a magazine cover, it's a rare pin that I found online (if you look up the stuff in Japanese), as it's from a pin set called: "Famitsu All Stars" that includes four more characters that you can check out here if you're not willing to type it up in Japanese.
Plus, do NOT remove watermark on the bottom (especially if this gets reposted someday that wants to share this). Even I find Necky interesting on how he got redesigned over the years on how he wasn't "too butchered" (or at least in my opinion as I'm saying this) by it unlike some characters like Chuck E. Cheese (on how the realistic-looking CGI "Rockstar" era design was for some reasons especially with those that grew up with the "Avenger/Cool" version) and some westernized cartoon reboots that I probably shouldn't mention here as much that didn't age well with some people out there... But as for Necky, it was a total different story on how people reacted to him over the years, I guess. And it's cool to see on how Necky got better and better as he didn't need to "drastically change" during the 2010's or 2020's ever since the 90's!
I think I was supposed to post this little compliation on November 13th (you know, the debut album day as the fandom would know about by now), since I got my avatar/character dressing up a bit like the gummy bear himself! No green bear ears though... And I also thought that Gummy was wearing a "golden-yellow" instead of "yellow-orange" since I thought it was "golden-yellow" for a long time honestly (and it doesn't help that some of the CGI models already give that kind of color on how I can see it unlike on how he debuted in his most famous song that you already know the title of if you've been on the internet for a good while by now). Even this character of mine is only wearing the dress since I didn't find anything like the underwear at the time.
As to why my avatar/character's hair color changed into a darker brown (since I started off a lighter brown in the first place) is when I unlocked more stuff from the hair salon! And perhaps I'll try to get a bit more closer to get a bit of orange in there for next time whenever I have my character wearing something like this again. Oh, not to mention I'm unlocking more of the songs that the game has since I'm still trying to unlock a bit more whenever I get there.
Yeah, to get that kind of appearance on how I want Necky to look like when it comes to that certain kind of 3D art style. Even I just had to use that one pic of him when it came to one of those covers on where he had alternative pose that was used pretty rarely back in 2018 (as that one Famitsu cover had Pikachu and Eevee mainly on there on where you can see that rare pose by the Famitsu logo). Even that "I'm a Scatman" music video has some fun shots that I can say... Since "I'm a Scatman" was one of those music video inspirations for my Necky the Fox music videos for my imagination like for the "My Console" cover and that "The Name is Necky" song.

Yeah, I had to do this, because why not? Still a fun character after all these years, man! And his design hasn't changed much ever since the 90's when he last got redesign as I can think of (well, maybe with only a few small details in the 2010's especially the cheek fur gets tends to longer at times)!

In which two of them are from Disney films while the first one isn't!
As for number 3, it's Honest John from the 1940 animated film called: Pinocchio as he's a fun antagonist who sings "An Actor's Life for Me" as it's better known as "Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee" as it's gotta be one of my favorite Disney songs that aren't from another Disney flick, the 1967 Jungle Book movie.
As for number 2, we got the fox version of Robin Hood as he is a fun full-on hero who quite has some moments through the movie like him and Little John dress in "fortune teller drags" to distract Prince John while also try to steal a bit of stuff alongside with some other moments that I can go on a bit more.
And as for number 1, if you've seen my blog before recently, it's no surprise that it's Necky the Fox from the Weekly Famitsu magazine series. Despite not having much of a written personality as of now, I think he's a lot of fun and underrated in my book. I mean, just look at some of the covers if you're into video games no matter if you read the Famitsu series or not!
Not to mention that I do like some other foxes that weren't included in this meme are; Miles "Tails" Prower from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, Tod from Disney's Fox and the Hound, and I guess I can say Rita from Jungledyret Hugo (despite I didn't watch Jungledyret as much, but I've seen some clips off of the first two films the most especially the songs like "Wulle Wulle Wap Wap", and the "Skateboard Song" are pretty good songs to at least say a few of them for now before I go off-topic here).

Well, one of them is gonna be a reference to a certain post that Gummy does within the "Funny DJ" remix music video as I got that pictured down below... But I want it without the tuba and "referential gizmos" as they would pop out through Gummy's "tuba backpack" behind Gummy himself as I just specifically want Necky to do the pose and facial expressions only (for the full music video alone aside from the TV-sized opening). And for those that wanna know a bit more about this ideal song of mine, go to one of my recent posts about it!
Plus, I think I forgot to mention the genres that I would want for this song... Well, it's gonna be like a mix of dance/electronic and pop-rock.
Anyway, here's the template made by Background-Conqueror that you can use here:
Speaking of that template though, it would be nice if there was a single character version of this template or better yet, include both "this character" and "these characters" onto the same template!
Not to mention on where I found the images for that "Funny DJ" remix on the right side are actually from here as it's a really nice FANDOM Wiki area that I gotta say (since it's one of the positive things I can surely say about the FANDOM site so far alongside with the Chuck E. Cheese area from that same exact wiki-hosting website).
For those that don't know what this is for, it's like a opening song idea for a potential Necky the Fox anime that I was thinking of. And I haven't wrote the song lyrics as of yet (as I'm not that much of a song writer but I'm trying to work on that for a bit as I've tried to parody a few songs in the past despite they may not be the best parodies of my own that you can check out on my blog if you wanna look around).
As for "Funny DJ" being there, I'm both referring to the original that came out in the 2000's for the "I Am Your Gummy Bear" album alongside with its recent remix from the 2020 decade. Even "Funny DJ" was my introduction song to "Daddy DJ". And as for that one Basshunter song included in there, when you pitched it down to the "Daddy DJ" or "Funny DJ" song(s), I actually like it more than the higher original tone on where it was at. But of course, there's also "DotA" and S3RL's "Pretty Rave Girl" that I didn't include in there, but I'm not including them in there since I'm not into those songs as much compared to "Daddy DJ" alongside with the Gummibär version that I keep mentioning.

As the title would be too long for this kind of post... Anyway, I think it would be cool to see Necky getting an anime than just a video game alone as some elements from my ideal video game AKA "Famitsu: Necky's Mighty Momentum" would be carried from that for this anime like making him an idol to see if he can do it or not alongside with my headcanons that I wrote for his personality. Even this would be Susumu Matsushita's world on how some of the other characters would get their chance to shine as both anthro animals and humans live both together in the same world that they're in.
Of course, you got the Famitsu stuff on how Necky lives through his life as a mascot on how he does his job like being a journalist for video games, but there's also this other side to him on how he's just somebody in life who's wanna be known better for other things (like his interests for food and etc.) than just this mascot stuff alone. And I don't know what exact human characters would he in here for now, but I guess there's some more protentional anthro characters from Mr. Matsushita to be included later on as once my video game idea gets flesh-out more alongside with this anime idea including more of a bigger cast as I'm gonna post about them within the future. Aside from the characters so far, the worldbuilding is gonna be your typical city life setup that's no different from the real world so, not a whole lot to comment there.
But as for the animation studio that I've picked so far, it's because TMS Entertainment can do both high-quality animation for both Japanese anime for many shows like Sonic X as to one example and western animation shows like Animaniacs and Tiny Toon Adventures to say a few. And as for this show's main animation style, I wanna it to be like mainly 2D as to like mixing some digital here, some CG effects there alongside with mixing some traditional from time to time like on how the characters are meant to be drawn.
Aside from that, from what I want the music to be in the show like for the opening and ending songs is like Eiffel 65's "My Console" (as to which I already talked about that not too long ago as to if Necky would sing that song) and the other song would be like an introduction kind of song in some way that goes something like: "The name is Necky (ENG) / Boku wa Nekki (JPN)" to start a bit there as Necky would sing to you to get your attention on who he is as he would get into the other stuff later on within the opening/theme song. Speaking of its theme song/opening, I wanna go for that vibe on how I previously talked about that "Funny DJ" song before, but not only on how "Funny DJ" (by Gummibär) is heavily based on/covered on "Daddy DJ" (by Daddy DJ) alongside with those Basshunter songs that would follow that same kind of melody structure like "DotA" and "All I Ever Wanted" alongside with S3RL's "Pretty Rave Girl" to be the most talked about of them all when it comes to comparing that "Daddy DJ" song. Well, here's this thing, I wanna see that kind of melody back from "Daddy DJ" honestly, but not in the pitch of those Basshunter songs or even that one S3RL song that I've just mentioned, but I wanna see that kind of pitch being the same just like on how "Funny DJ" was able to keep the same pitch as the original song.
And as for the first ending song on how I wanted to animated is like on how see those modern Gummibär mvs as I'm writing this out and I also wanna see that "The Name is Necky" song get animated in two ways, one version would be your standard 2D anime opening visually showcasing the characters and whatnot... as for the full version of the song would be a different mv than what the TV-sized version had as it'll be in fully 3D CGI like those modern Gummibär mvs to give it more of a flair since I think it's not everyday you see anime openings would get a full-on music video for the entire song. Plus, the same can be likely said for the ending song on how it will stay in its 3D CGI style but there's more to extend its full version for its entirety.

And for what year that was, it was back in 1995! Even I just saw that album cover recently as I was writing this as I already knew the ref...
