Hey Proxies! Pull up a chair, grab your favorite Bangboo, and let me take you back to one of the most electric community moments in New Eridu. Back in late 2024, a song called モエチャッカファイア took over my feed, my playlist, and basically every corner of the internet I frequented. It was created by Proxy @弌誠 for Ellen Joe, and it hit like a perfect dodge into a chain attack. I remember seeing clips everywhere, and when the fan art event was announced around that track, I knew the community was about to deliver something unforgettable.
Now, if you are reading this in 2026, the event itself has long closed its submission window. It ran from 2024/10/30 to 2024/11/24 UTC+8. But here is the thing: great community moments do not expire. They become legends, reference points, and inspiration for the next wave of creators. So let me walk you through what made this event special, why Ellen Joe fans showed up in force, and how you can still use モエチャッカファイア as a creative spark today.
What Exactly Was the MoeChakkaFire Fan Art Event?
In simple terms, it was a fan art challenge built around the viral theme song モエチャッカファイア. The song was made for Ellen Joe, and the event asked Proxies to use it as a basis for their own creations. That could mean illustration, animation, edits, or any creative interpretation that captured the playful, shark-loving energy of Ellen Joe. The original song creator @弌誠 and its animator @ハツミノ were involved as judges for the top prize, which gave the whole thing a very personal, community-first feel.
The event was officially authorized by the original creators, and that matters. It was not a random contest slapped together. It was a celebration with the blessing of the people who made the song blow up in the first place. I always appreciate when a community event respects the artists who started the trend.
The Rewards Were Absolutely Worth It
Let me be real: the prize pool made my Polychrome hoarding instincts twitch. Here is the breakdown as I remember it:
| Prize | Winners | Rewards | Judge or Selection |
|---|---|---|---|
| Creative Prize | 10 | Polychrome ×5,000 + 300 USD | @弌誠 and @ハツミノ |
| Lucky Prize | 10 | Polychrome ×2,000 + 200 USD | Lucky draw |
That is 20 winners total, which is a generous spread. The Creative Prize was judged by the original song creator and animator, so the top entries had to bring both technical skill and genuine love for Ellen Joe. The Lucky Prize gave more casual creators a shot too, which kept the event from feeling like it was only for pros.
Why モエチャッカファイア Worked So Well
I have thought about this a lot. Why did that song become a phenomenon? Part of it is Ellen Joe herself. She is a shark-maid icon with a laid-back attitude, sharp style, and a combat loop that feels amazing when you time it right. She is the kind of character who invites fan creativity because she already feels like she stepped out of a music video.
But the other part is the song. モエチャッカファイア is catchy, upbeat, and just weird enough to be memorable. It has that perfect fan-event energy: easy to remix, easy to animate, and easy to imagine Ellen Joe dancing along. When a track like that lands, the community does not just listen. It creates.
How I Would Approach It in 2026
Even though the official event is over, you can still use モエチャッカファイア as a creative prompt. Here is how I would tackle it if I were making something today:
-
🦈 Pick a single moment from the song and build your piece around it. Do not try to adapt the whole track. One strong idea beats ten half-finished ones.
-
🎨 Match Ellen Joe's vibe. Think cool blues, sharp reds, playful shadows, and a sense of motion. She is relaxed, but she is never boring.
-
🎤 Sync to the beat. If you are animating or editing, let the cuts land on the music. That is what made the original so rewatchable.
-
💥 Add one personal twist. Maybe your Bangboo joins the dance. Maybe Ellen Joe is mid-battle but still humming the tune. Make it yours.
-
📱 Share it with the community. Even without an official event, fan art keeps a character alive. The Proxies who post their work are the reason trends like this keep going.
The Platforms and the Participation
Back when the event was live, entries and event updates moved across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. There was also an accompaniment track provided so creators could sync their work to the music. I remember thinking that was a smart move. It lowered the barrier for animators and editors who wanted to join but did not know where to start.
Submissions went through an official form, and the event page acted as the hub for rules and updates. I will not drop links here, but if you search for the original announcement in 2026, you can still find archives and community reposts. The important thing is that the event was accessible, clearly explained, and open to different skill levels.
What This Event Taught Me About the Community
Honestly, events like this are why I love being a Proxy. They remind me that games are not just about clearing Shiyu Defense or pulling for the next S-rank. They are about the people who make memes, songs, animations, and art just because they love a character. Ellen Joe got a theme song from a fan, that song became a hit, and then the community got a whole art event built around it. That is a full-circle moment you do not see every day.
In 2026, I still see Ellen Joe fan art, and I still hear モエチャッカファイア in edits and compilations. The event may be a memory now, but the creativity it sparked is still rolling. So if you missed it, do not worry. Grab the song, open your drawing app or editing software, and make something fun. The spirit of the event was never just about winning Polychrome. It was about celebrating a character, a song, and a community that knows how to have a good time.
Keep pulling, keep creating, and keep smiling. That is the MoeChakkaFire way. 🦈✨
