i like it, but i fail to see the joke

Maybe something like Apple cider -> Apple Cirno

I'd say that was a bad apple pun..... but now I'm in the same boat.

hmm... Baka apple?

Frozen Apple?

im just assuming its him doing a still life, and throwing Cirno in there to show off how good he is with reflections

It's ao usagi. No explanation is needed.

This. He's been fucking with our minds for so long, so when he's not even doing it, we expect the effect and still feel mindfucked

Rather like a user on the GameFAQs UK forum. Every time a new user comes in and introduces themselves, regulars accuse them of being Izual, a guy who made so many alt accounts, it was once assumed that everyone on GameFAQs was Izual. When they deny it, or say they don't know who Izual is, they say "A typical Izual response", and it all sort of breaks down from there.

But yeah, that's roughly what's happened here. He's been clever in his own way for a while now, making puns in visual form, that now people will search for meaning in each and every one of his pictures.

Every picture has a meaning

I'm Guessing
Bad Apple + CNN = Cirno News Network?

Or maybe there's no joke, and he just wanted to put Cirno next to an apple.

Which, knowing Ao, would be the joke in the first place. Draw something, make everyone think there's something to be found, make them all waste their time trying to figure out the punchline...

It's Cirno. Next to an apple. 'Gotcha, folks!'

am i the only one who sees a gigantic 9 on the apple?

Not now, you're not!

Apple Cirno-ver = Apple turnover?

Actually, thinking back on it, Ao Usagi probably would have just put Cirno's dress and/or wings on an apple if he was going for that kind of pun. This is probably just a reverse-mindfuck like Aleander said.

So.. this was drawn because Cirno wasn't in the Bad Apple!! promotional video?

no explanation possible is more the usual

crisp apple?

cold and crisp

the apple is almost transparent at the side. Um.... I got nothing.
or maybe he's just screwing around by NOT screwing around ?

Bad Apple!! is a terrible pun, but I'd have to agree with the reverse psychology theory. He tends to do that.

To this day, I think there's something wrong in this picture, but all I could think of is Cirno's reflection. I don't think she should have a reflection on the apple from that position...
