It's called "Friends of Kagami." How could I not post it? As the title implies, the video features short segments of just about every Lucky Star character, usually featuring Japanator's lovely shrine maiden, Kagami. Oh, to be with her once again...I can be! Thanks to picking up the Kagami figma at New York Anime Fest, I can now enjoy her whenever I need a pick-me-up.
As usual, the video comes from SWFBlog, and can anyone make heads or tails of why this is so catchy? More and more, I've been enjoying these types of videos, and I just can't seem to get them out of my head. I've actually started perusing Nico Nico Douga in attempts to find more of these super-awesomely cut videos. It's a little scary, in my mind.
Please tell me some of you feel the same way. I don't want to be alone here...

I, too, have grown fond of this sort of MAD and it IS scary how small chunks of dialogue can be strung together to mimic the rhythm of an unrelated song (i.e. Touhou). I like to think of them as found poems but with more fanservice and as a type of meticulous project I would never have the patience to finish.
As much as I love Touhou music, and as much as I love Lucky Star and Kagami, I just can't get myself to enjoy these types of videos....
I'm a regular Nico Nico spelunker and I just never understood the whole craze with the short audio clips. There's only a very VERY small handful that I've ever liked, but none of them were of Lucky Star....
This was better than the Kirby remixes though (I really don't like the Kirby ones....they just come across as flat out annoying to me...).
@Heero - It's an acquired taste, you either like them or you don't, I used to hate them, but after a while they sort of grew on me. But then again, I have a voice fetish.
