About

Cyclops Senpai (Japanese: サイクロップス先輩; lit. Cyclops the Senior) is an incarnation of “Yajuu Senpai” (野獣先輩; lit. The Beastly Senior), the most beloved character by Inmufags or fans of the Japanese gay porn meme A Midsummer Night’s Lewd Dream. He is also a subject for parodies on the Japanese video sharing service Nico Nico Douga (NND) along with its background music in the opening scene.

Origin

“Cyclops Senpai” comes from a Japanese gay porn “Scooop!!! 1 – Virtual Sex – Meet the Team!!!” (Scooop!!! 第一弾 virtual sex-イカせ隊・見参!!!) which was released by COAT Corporation on May 20th, 2001. The remarkable feature in this video is its quite weird opening scene where a guy with silver body painting is wearing a black head-mounted display and connecting to a virtual sex machine. This opening scene is colored by 1999 hit tune “Sandstorm”[1] by a Finnish trance music producer/DJ Darude.[2]

And, this silver guy, the protagonist in this video, is the same actor as Yajuu Senpai who appeared in the 4th chapter of A Midsummer Night’s Lewd Dream, the most famous Japanese gay porn video released by the same production in that year.

Spread

Inmufags found out this video in April 2011[3] from a long-term investigation for Yajuu Senpai’s other works. It was soon set to a subject for mockery due to its poor rendition in the opening scene and the Senpai’s high piercing breathing voices as usual. Yajuu Senpai in this video was given a nickname “Cyclops Senpai” because that head-mounted display reminds them of the visor of Cyclops in X-men series.[4] And withstanding NND admin’s severe deleting campagin against Inmufags, many dirty MAD videos sampling this video have been posted to NND since June 2012.[5] In those MADs, some silly phonetic translations are also featured: Target → Darvish[6], Body Sensor → Boshin Sensou (戊辰戦争; Boshin War[7]).

On the other hand, this dirty gay porn meme has spread a harmful reputation for “Sandstorm” since Inmufags are sampling Cyclops Senpai along with this song and utilizing this song as his theme music. Nowadays, Even pure “Sandstorm” videos, never related to that gay porn, have been suffered Inmufags’ dirty in-jokes.
