Heisei Democracy mascot character Demo-tan has been Lucky-Starjacked, courtesy of the Flash and Photoshop-fu of CMWilly over at Clockwork Machina! I’m pretty sure most of us are familiar with this visual meme by now, but for the curious here is a link that explains all. Lucky Demo wallpaper available below:

Edit: CMWilly has posted a walkthrough of the creation process that led to the above image. Pretty damn sweet stuff. :3
Now this is what I call marketing.
I like. I like. :)
So how much did KyoAni pay you for this? :V
Good Job. No offense, but your first demo-chan logo is just so very… gaijin-ish. Just feels like it’s draw by a gaijin. This one is much better, closer to actual JDM art.
It seems like everyone is getting on the luck-star DADADA LOLs
wow that is great I think I will take that for my background.
Am I only person not on the Lucky Star bandwagon?
Still, Nice graphic . . .
Hmmmm, someone please explain the DADADA phenomenon to me? I am downloading LS fansubs, but I don’t watch them until I get a full series…

I’m not exactly sure what is being marketed by who to what target audience, but I’ll be damned if this isn’t selling something to someone somewhere! :D

Thanks! It was just one of those spur of the moment things that me and CMWilly got excited about enough to actually finish (mostly him, with a bit of moral support from me). Fun times.

A fat stack of cease-and-desist letters is expected shortly. I hear they’re legal tender in some second world countries!
>>Ocha-san
Yeah, there was pretty universal agreement that Demo-tan’s first render failed at the moe. It’s a goal we’re constantly working towards…

The Lucky Star OP is an anthem of OTAKU GENERATION. The dadada will not get out of my head. :(
>>akaguwa
Awesome! It’s sort of a half-assed implementation (hooray default Photoshop gradients) but I think it turned out OK.
>>loplop
No, you’re not. I love the OP and Lucky Channel radio, but otherwise the show is hit or miss for me.
>>Sydney2K
It’s just a bit from the opening theme; it’s not really spoilers to look it up on YouTube, which I heartily recommend. It’s an awesome song.
How about collecting various fanart of Demo-tan and set the header images to randomise everytime visitors refresh the page? You could have a mini contest at the same time.
Very cute. XD
I need to work on my own mascots. >.>
