** The same thing with the UsefulNotes/{{Swed|en}}ish song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvcePUN-KnU Hej Monika]], after LetsPlay/PewDiePie sang it and associated it with Monika.

* The [[UsefulNotes/EastGermany East German]] song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsojgH70J9g Monika]] is now associated with Monika from the game. Take a look at the comment section which one user notes has turned into a fusion of Doki Doki Literature Club and the [[UsefulNotes/OssisWithOsas Volksarmee]].

* Cool Sayori / "Coolyori" [[labelnote:Explanation]][[https://old.reddit.com/r/DDLC/comments/7uddrx/you_cant_just_respond_to_everything_with_finger/ A piece of fanart depicting Sayori giving finger guns while wearing aviator shades]]; originally based on the preexisting "that's where you're wrong kiddo" meme, the artwork became popular to use among ''DDLC'' fans as a variant of [[Music/{{Drake}} Drakeposting]]. Eventually became an AscendedMeme when Team Salvato released [[https://twitter.com/TeamSalvato/status/1705337438191972525 a set of custom emoji]] for ''DDLC's'' sixth anniversary, including an emoji of Sayori wearing shades colored just like the original image.[[/labelnote]]

* Skip! Skip! [[TemptingFate Yo, when does this game get fucking good, bruh?]][[labelnote:Explanation]]During streamer Ishowspeed's playthrough of the game, he kept skipping the dialogue of the game, as he found it boring. But then, after skipping enough, he got to Sayori's suicide, and got fittingly shocked by it. People have since taken that part of the stream and replaced the game with something else to make it look like Ishowspeed is choosing between stuff such as food to eat, while changing the part with Sayori's suicide to something like [[CrossesTheLineTwice a lego brick]].[[/labelnote]]

* Just Monika. [[labelnote:Explanation]]She has a tendency to railroad options to her favor, turning the phrase into eerie ArcWords across Act Two. There's even a sequence where the player is forced to sit through the phrase six times in a row, including [[FissionMailed a fake-out cut back to the title screen]].[[/labelnote]]

* "Doki Doki is not Oki Doki." [[labelnote:Explanation]]Used when humorously discussing the game's SurpriseCreepy nature, apparently started by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82xLgjZZyyo MagikarpUsedFly]].[[/labelnote]]

* [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/monika-t-posing-over-sans This image]] of Monika T-Posing over [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Sans]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]A fan art made by sansurichin, the image is used to depict dominance from one side, Monika, and the other side cowering in fear, Sans. As [[Memes/{{Undertale}} Sans]] had already become a [[FountainOfMemes rather memetic character]] by this time due to his [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall own meta-awareness]] and [[{{Superboss}} use of said meta-awareness]], this meme is essentially Monika declaring her dominance as a new memetic character from a SurpriseCreepy game of the 2010s.[[/labelnote]]

** Egg Sayori[[labelnote:Explanation]]The game has a sizable trans following that particularly latched onto Sayori; because the game came out around the time when the concept of "eggs" (trans people who don't yet realize that they're trans) started entering mainstream visibility, an offshoot of the "Cool Sayori" meme themed around the idea emerged, becoming popular enough to give the original fanartist a noticeable ColbertBump.[[/labelnote]]

* Fans often use "posture", especially "bad posture" as a [[UnusualEuphemism synonym]] for [[BuxomIsBetter big breasts]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]In the game, Yuri says that she suffers from back pain and starts to attribute it to a reason. She stops herself short, but it's implied from the [[OhCrap look]] [[SweatDrop on]] [[LuminescentBlush her face]] that she was about to say that [[DCupDistress her large rack was the cause]]. The protagonist, either [[CaptainOblivious innocently]] or [[LastSecondWordSwap knowingly]], [[FinishingEachOthersSentences suggests]] that "bad posture" was the the reason for her back pain, to which Yuri [[SureLetsGoWithThat hastily agrees]].[[/labelnote]]

* It's common in reviews for this game to play up the cute aspects while only vaguely alluding to the SurpriseCreepy, such as making puns about Sayori's and Yuri's deaths, or talking about how [[{{Yandere}} wonderful Monika is.]]

** (No Hubert.) Just [[VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes Monica]].[[labelnote:Explanation]]Monica von Ochs from VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes was revealed to have StalkerWithACrush tendencies for celebrity songstress Dorothea and especially Edelgard, their empress. Comparisons came quickly. Hubert is Edelgard's right hand man, and thus Monica's "rival".]]
