NOTE: This doesn't have the intention of damage oniku1234 reputation,

this was made for informative purposes, given the scarcity of information

available online regarding this matter.

 

Before you start reading this I want to make a short introduction to the people mentioned here

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"腐れ雅" (Kusare Miyabi): Kusare Miyabi (a.k.a Masatsugu Kawaguchi 川口雅嗣) is an animator

who was active in the 2ch FLASH golden era in his site KILLERKILLER光る, he is best known

for having made the  ”idiot” (a.k.a you are an idiot!) in 2004, the center of the whole investigation

 

Rebirth: Rebirth was a Doujin music artist who was active in muzie and his/her homepage

on the years 2002 and 2004, releasing various tracks,

the most important tracks here are You ARE the IDIOT!! and You ARE the IDIOT!! 2

 

oniku1234: Theres no much information about this person, other than be the reuploader of "idiot" on YouTube

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the year 2006 a user called oniku1234 would upload a video titled "you are an idiot!" but this is NOT the

original upload, theres a whole backstory about this

 

In the year 2004 a 2ch thread titled "you are an idiot!で1000を目指すスレその2" would appear and as

its name says it is a thread for 1000 posts about You are an idiot. In the post 862 a user called

"腐れ雅" (Kusare Miyabi) would post the animation in its original SWF file as just an animation for the thread

In his words "暇つぶしで作ったモノです、くだらないです、見る価値無いです、ホント、 " It was just

a stupid video and 2 years later oniku1234 would reupload that animation having 21 million views

 

NOTES: The music is made by a Japanese artist called Rebirth which published 2 songs under the names

"You ARE the IDIOT!!" and "You ARE the IDIOT!! 2" in muzie and 2ch on 2004,

the second part is what we all know. All his/her accounts were deleted in 2007

and theres no new info about Rebirth

 

yadda yadda mentalHADRZ is not a production brand and APOCALIPSIS has nothing to do

with Rebirth or Miyabi

Let's jump to 2026. Kusare Miyabi made a music video titled "Digital Venom" and published the 2 animations

You are an idiot 2 and you are an idiot under the names "idiot(official)" and "idiot2(official)"

but those 2 videos were taken down by a copyright claim by oniku1234, only surviving Digital Venom

As far I remember they were uploaded on early February 2026 and taken down around 7 March. And there was only

1 comment in idiot(official), it was a Japanese guy saying that he hoped this upload could get more views because it

is the original

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In digital venom at minute 0:59 when it says "My mind breaks" in the background it appears a copyright claim

reconstructed it would be something like this

TL;DR: The famous 2006 YouTube upload by oniku1234 was a reupload.

Evidence indicates the original 2004 Flash animation "idiot" was created by Kusare Miyabi,

with music by Rebirth. This page documents the evidence.

 

--------------PLEASE DON'T HATE ON ONIKU1234--------------

Alright Kids, here finishes the story about a talented animator and a piece of meat who lies.

And I guess you are hungry so here are sources for eat!!

---NOTES---

 

Can I use this page for a video, article or whatever?

Sure!!. About giving credit, is your choice. Nobody can own information (right??)

 

Why I made this?

I made this because Kusare Miyabi and Rebirth deserves their credit after 22 years of their works being wrong credited.

Also I made this because the information was very scattered (as I said in the header)

Also is fun and interesting spreading and making things related. No seriously, I really find it like that.

(Kusare Miyabi is my favourite animator)

 

How I discovered this?

Welp :p is not that (mental)hard(z). I was just watching you are an idiot because is a good song an animation until I released

2ch references on it and oniku1234 in his description says that is from United Kingdom. Then I found the link to the 2ch thread

on Nico Nico Douga in a you are an idiot reupload by Nick (THANK YOU NICK FOR LEAVING THE LINK)

There were many links and in the amount of them I found it a readed a bit. The rest is history

 

Can I use idiot or idiot2 for some projects

This is not under my power but, Erm actually according to Kusare Miyabi...
