- As some may know, one of the funniest aspects of the "
Rozen Maiden" Series is that within the story itself, we are presented with a fictional doll character who stars in his own detective TV show.
This character of course, beeing no other then "
Detective Kun Kun ".
- Of what we now know related to the Time of which most of the Rozen Maiden last awoke s still very unclear, however there are several indications that both Suigin Tou and Shinku had fought each other somewhere during the years of the
World War II.
Hence we assume that during this time, they did not get a chance to observe Television.
Which is why now, having awoke in "Our" present Time, they became somewhat obsessed with it ; for it was something they had not experienced before.
However it is not by chance that such happened, for it is in fact thanks to / and because of Kun Kun that they became so fond of it.
But why Kun Kun you ask ?
- Kun Kun's Story revolves arround very simple aspects, beeing these most of the times on how Detective Kun Kun foils the evil cat's plans over & over again ; however in the end it shows us that Kun Kun is a keen-eye detective which always makes the smartest choices and is able to solve every crime through well thought out means and brilliant deductions.
Hence naturaly someone like Shinku (who sees herself as beeing Very inteligent & perspective) would gravitate towards him in terms of personality.
The reason for all of this is that it was in fact the perfect match.., having Shinku found someone who she admires for having all the qualities that she wishes to have ; added to the new experience it all was aswell.
So in other words.., Shinku became a fangirl, plain and simple
; actualy to the point even of speaking to the television as if she thinks that Kun Kun can hear her.
- Which realy show us she just loves & admires the entire show and its contents
THAT much.
Naturaly the show catches on.., and for
some reason too, most the rest of the Rozen Maiden seem to be drawn to it.
-
* From our prespective now.., it is assumed that the Main reason, and why it is in fact such a humorous aspect of the series.., is that it simply consists on the Irony of dolls watching a show starring a doll.
In fact.., Kun Kun's popularity became so big that "
Peach-Pit" (the Rozen Maiden series publisher) actualy made a Special OVA related to it.
The Detective Kun Kun - "
Duell Walzer OVA"
- This 7 minute OVA is in fact a Full Detective Kun Kun episode ; and it portrays watching a Detective Kun Kun's show from a Rozen Maiden doll's perspective.
