- Comment: "This song feels like my older songs. Well, since it started turning out weird, I did try to make it at least sound like something I might have written long ago ... It's nice to have something this rhythmical(?). And, it's very 3rd-stage-ish(??)..."
Fandom
A very popular video titled Bad Apple!! was posted on the video website NicoNicoDouga by あにら. This video would grow in massive popularity on the website due to its unique animations and song arrangement, and soon after would be reposted to YouTube where it would grow incredibly popular there with western audiences. Due to the video's massive popularity and the lack thereof popularity of Lotus Land Story and the rest of the past works, many people are not aware of Bad Apple!!'s origins.
In addition, the arrangement of Bad Apple!! in the popular video does not have the same note progression as the original past the chorus. The chorus of the arrangement is in fact from Broken Moon, which is from Immaterial and Missing Power.
