Where does the “Raging X” meme come from?
The musical foundation is the arrangement "Night of Nights" by BEATMARIO, a member of COOL&CREATE, uploaded to Nico Nico Douga on July 20, 2008. The documented visual starting point is the video "Crazy Raging Reimu," posted on January 24, 2009. It shows Reimu Hakurei, the protagonist of Touhou, performing a frantic dance to this track. This clip inspired over a hundred similar creations on the Japanese platform, often incorporating elements like boxes or cross-universe interactions. On YouTube, the format generalized under the generic name "X on Drugs," replacing X with the specific character.
