The 'I'm dying / Is it blissful?' meme originates from a poignant scene in the manga series Gantz, where characters face their mortality in surreal, often tragic circumstances. The specific dialogue—'I'm dying,' 'Is it blissful?', 'It's like a dream,' and 'I want to dream'—captured the internet's imagination for its ethereal and melancholic tone. While originally serious, the meme has evolved into a versatile format used to describe feelings of intense relief, the joy of finally resting after a long week, or ironically reacting to something that is 'too good to be true.' It is a staple in anime and gaming communities to highlight moments of pure escapism.
