About

Chilled ___ Series (冷やし○○シリーズ) is an 音MAD fad using the part featuring the Hammer theme and RED ZONE from the song 7 Colors of Nico Nico Douga (七色のニコニコ動画).

Story

The video 7 Colors of Nico Nico Douga was first uploaded on NND on June 3, 2009. As of February 2013, it has been watched over 2'600'000 times. ^[1]

Before the Chilled Series came out, there were earlier MADs but they were not as a part of the fad. There's also no specific reason, why this part was remixed in MAD style. However, the first MAD using the part was uploaded on August 19, 2009 featuring the anime Yu-Gi-Oh! ^[2]. A fad response of this video was made a month later, which also featured the anime and it has been watched over 33'000 times. ^[3]

This was somehow the trigger video, which inspired by well-known german YTPMV maker Healzer to make his YTPMV featuring Keyboard Crasher. It was uploaded both on NND and YouTube on November 13, 2009 ^[4]. This video was the trigger video for not much YTPMVs on YouTube. The snowclone for the titles are X ZONE 【7 Colors of Nico Nico Douga Ver.】
