More than meets the eye?

So while looking through YouTube for some way to kill time, I ran across this video called "無15", which just means #15 in Japanese.



It's this young teenage girl just staring at the camera, and kind of smirking. Okay, that's weird. More weird is that I'm watching. Even more weird is that it has 500,000 pageviews, in addition to the views from 無14, 無13, ... Plus they have spawned a whole family of response videos from
