Memes Anime Discussion
The following is a list of every meme I just removed off the main page. None of these have any real explanation about what they mean. Before reposting any of them please remember: There is NO such thing as a Meme that is self-explanatory. Even if you think so, you are guaranteed to find someone who disagrees.

Take 2:
=============================
Dragonball
=============================
- "The whole universe is going to die!"
- Dub!Vegeta during the Buu arc gave us "Son of a Namek!" and "Great galaxies!"
- Broly. His power is maximum.◊
- No one has seen the last of Vegeta's power.
- Frieza is inappropriate.
- Mi... Mi... Mikuru BEAAAAM!
- Haruhi's awesome pen-spinning techniques.
- And now for your listening pleasure, Miss Suzumiya will make some loud noises.
- Whenever anyone says "USODA!"
- Usoda? USE SODA!!
- Gecko Moria has never won a fight and never will, existing solely to be a punching bag for other characters. Amusingly enough, this comes full circle when Doflamingo tells him that he's no longer useful as a Warlord, and tries to kill him offscreen. While still losing, Moria at least gets away.
- Set sail for ONE PAGE!
- The D. Stands for DON!!!
- Cute little Cheerful Child Yotsuba Koiwai has become something of an unofficial mascot on Image Boards such as 4chan, since the software to use the boards is also called "Yotsuba". The "favorites" icon for 4chan is in the shape of a 4-leaf clover, just like the title character's hairstyle, and the 404 messages feature her.
- Only noobs will call her "404 girl", though.
- And only the truly evil would play Rule 34 on her.
- Only noobs will call her "404 girl", though.
- Victoreem's "Very Melon" song from Gash Bell.
- Very shit!
- Clannadman and YOU WILL NEVER BE THE CLANNADMAN.
- Almost on par with "Caramelldansen" are music videos based on the song "Danjo" by J-pop artist Taro!, which also feature a distinctive and rather goofy dance. Sighted series include Super Smash Bros, Death Note, and Eyeshield 21.
- Of course, one can't mention Caramelldansen and Danjo without Caipirinha coming to mind. It started with Tomo's "you're a kid" dance from Episode 20 with a double-speed Brazilian song about Caipirinha (the national drink of Brazil), seen here and soon everyanimecharacter you can think of was brought into it. This is the first.
- Also... Paffendorf.
- And recently, GET DOWN, which actually derives from a glitch in Goldeneye.

- Osaka's little moment with the knife.

- "Herro, every-nyan! How ah you? Fine, sank you." "Oh my Gah!"
- Similarly to the Hare Hare Yukai and Dansen memes, the opening for Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei has been mixed with nearly everything under the sun. A few examples for your viewing pleasure.
- I'M IN DESPAIR! MEMETIC MUTATION HAS LEFT ME IN DESPAIR!
- Let's face it, any negative headline will leave you in despair.
- Speaking of which, "Go make yourself taller" has lately become an Unusual Euphemism for killing yourself.
- I'll sue!
- Don't call me normal!
- Jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
- Don't open it!
- I'M IN DESPAIR! MEMETIC MUTATION HAS LEFT ME IN DESPAIR!
- And the ultimate mashup of memes... the Niconico Douga medleys. Compiled by the users of Niconico Douga (a popular Japanese video streaming site), the combination of anime, videogame and music from other sources, titled Kumikyoku (Medley), turned out surprisingly tuneful and chock-full of memes and in-jokes. It doesn't help that it's spawned its own vocal renditions across the world, and numerous remixes, all of which are made of awesome and win.
- And a later version of the medley, the Ryuuseigun (Meteor Shower), was done with a full orchestra. For the troper who wanted his/her CaramellDansen with all the works, it's The End Of The World As We Know It.
- One website has taken upon itself to collect many different versions of the medley in one spot for your perusal.
- The Automated Mario version.
- And a later
- "Drr...Drr...Drr..." Explanation

- This blog entry lists several more.
- In this troper's opinion, the Most Triumphant Example can be seen here, starting at 0:23.
- This blog entry
- A Beatmania song called "smooooch·?·" and its accompanying dance video has spawned numerous variations, including Sailor Moon, Harry Potter, MGS4 (with Sweet Snake bonus!), the inevitable live action attempt, and countless others from just about any other anime or game you could ever think of. This troper's favorite incorporates all of Final Fantasy Tactics (War of the Lions)' jobs and unique playable characters (who didn't fall through a hole in timespace, anyway).
- The ending song of Fight Ippatsu! Juuden-chan!! is being parodied a lot.
