A Minecraft fan has recreated the iconic shadow puppet music video for the Japanese hit Bad Apple!! in the sandbox game, using eyeblossom flowers and some programming skills. In the blocky expanse of Minecraft, anything is possible, and players continuously take on the strenuous task of recreating monolith structures from pop culture fandoms for the community to marvel over.
Released in 2011, Mojang Studios’ sandbox became the all-time best-selling video game and currently hosts almost 140 million active players every month. The premise follows players around a procedurally generated, three-dimensional world to mine materials, craft tools, and build structures, all while battling hostile mobs. Minecraft recently introduced new creaking enemies that may rock the mob status quo according to fans, but updates of this type keep gameplay fresh.

A devoted Minecraft player brings a real-life staple of their past to the game with a realistic recreation of a massive glacier formation.
Posted on Reddit by ariarimasumasu, a video lasting over three minutes was shared within the Minecraft subreddit, showing a stretch of land covered in eyeblossom flowers. The video is set to the track Bad Apple!! by nomico, and the pattern in which the luminous flowers light up follows the iconic shadow puppet music video for the song. Silhouettes of characters interacting, playing musical instruments, and dancing can be witnessed on the display. Eyeblossoms used as a musical visualizer should take the number one spot in Minecraft’s list of the best uses for flowers, as the recreation is an impressive replica of the original music video. Responding to a fan on Reddit, the creator explained that they used the 3D program Blender to animate the flowers through geometry nodes, and the video soon became very popular in the community.
Minecraft Player Recreates Bad Apple!! Music Video Using Eyeblossom Flowers
One Redditor brought up the popular trend of trying to get id Software’s original Doom game to run on any appliance in sight, and the latest addition to this craze saw Doom running on Nintendo’s new alarm clock. The comment was in response to another user stating, “So this video can truly be run on anything,” and the Redditor replied, “It’s the original Doom version for animation.” Naturally, the musical side of the Minecraft community wanted to see Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up recreated through eyeblossoms next.
The song Bad Apple!! came from the 1998 bullet hell video game Lotus Land Story, serving as the fourth title in the Touhou Project series by Team Shanghai Alice. Bad Apple!! joins some of the best chiptune tracks from video games, having originally existed as an instrumental theme during a certain stage of the game. However, the song was later covered by Alstroemeria Records with a longer version released by nomico, accompanying the recognizable black-and-white shadow art video that became somewhat of a meme in the late 2000s.
