Flashtok refers to a specific aesthetic and community on TikTok characterized by high-speed video edits, intense strobe effects, and bass-heavy soundtracks. The term emerged as a way to categorize 'cool' edits that often feature anime characters, athletes, or celebrities looking their best—often referred to as having 'high aura.' These edits typically use sharp transitions and flash photography aesthetics to create a sense of intensity and style. As a meme format, Flashtok is used to parody the seriousness of these edits or to highlight moments of extreme coolness or 'rizz' in everyday situations, bridging the gap between professional video editing and shitposting culture.
