If you want a command-line tool, youtube-dl can handle FC2 links.

Use it like this:

youtube-dl http://video.fc2.com/en/content/20130725s9ppAvVC

Flashgot can download FC2 videos.

Just install Flashgot go to the FC2 webpage, start playing, press Flashgot Media (1) and enter a filename and folder.

Thanks Firelord (and Izzy) for the tips, I had no idea non-specialized tools would work for such a particular website.
