Fukouna Shoujo 03, commonly referred to as 'Laser Girl' or 'The Girl in the Machine,' is an infamous pixel art animation created by the artist Ray (vvvic). The original content depicts a young girl being mechanically flayed, which led to its reputation as one of the most disturbing shock videos on the internet. In meme culture, the imagery is rarely shown in its entirety; instead, it serves as the ultimate 'trauma' reference in 'Those Who Know vs. Those Who Don't Know' comparison videos. It represents the loss of internet innocence and is used to identify users who have frequented the darker, more graphic corners of the web.
