The 'Chiitan Removing the Costume' meme features the famously chaotic Japanese otter mascot, Chiitan, aggressively pulling off its oversized mascot head. Known for its high-energy and often destructive social media presence, Chiitan became a global sensation for subverting the polite expectations of 'yuru-chara' mascots. This template captures the frantic moment of unmasking, often used as a metaphor for dropping a social facade or revealing one's true, unhinged self. It's especially popular for describing the relief of ending a work shift, stopping 'polite' behavior, or simply expressing a state of frantic transformation.
