sorry, I'm not very good at cutting to the point...
What I'm mean to ask is, is popotan the original series, and if so, how is caramelldansen related other than then the fact that is uses a clip from the series...
The image yes, it's a capture. And the song is totally unrelated in a official manner...
caramelldansen is just our tag for anything related to the caramelldansen meme. The Japanese call it ｳｯｰｳｯｰｳﾏｳﾏ(ﾟ∀ﾟ). It would be pretty weird NOT to tag the original image caramelldansen, in my opinion.
how long ago did the meme start?
What I'm trying to ask (and failing so miserably to do so) is:
if this dancing segment existed before the meme started, than would it still be tagged caramelldansen and why?
(sorry in advance if this gets double posted, my connection has been spotty as of late...)

Yes, the Popotan dance was long before caramelldansen, but it's still correct to tag this with it because it is in the same style as the meme. Someone looking for caramelldansen will want to see this. Especially when it helped start it all.

Unfortunately, as much as I recognize this as being a meme-starter, I'd much rather have the music video since it was the combination of the music and this animation that kicked off the meme.

And I'm fine with that. Though probably just image is less annoying to few people ;P

over 4 years agoQuestion regarding the "caramelldansen" tag:
what is this (by which I mean the .gif in this post) originally from?
Swift
over 4 years agoThis gif is from the anime Popotan, as the tag in purple says.
Bansho
over 4 years agoand what does "caramelldansen" have to do with Popotan?

over 4 years agoThe music, though this one doesn't have it, therefore this shouldn't have caramelldansen tag IMO.
phane
over 4 years agoThis was the image that was used in the flash that spawned the caramelldansen meme. See post #113333
Bansho
over 4 years agobut was the music with it originally, is my question...
スラッシュ
over 4 years agoNo, somebody put it in the flash later as a joke/meme/thingamabob. Popotan had an opening by UNDER17. No Swedes involved (as far as I know).
Bansho
over 4 years agois this taken directly from the opening then?
Anonymous
over 4 years agoYes, it's from the game intro.
スラッシュ
over 4 years agoCome to think of it no, I don't remember it being in the opening. It must've been from the game intro, I guess?

over 2 years agothis one goes better with the original mix of the Caramelldansen song which i think is better than the sped up one
