This iconic meme originates from the 1990s anime series Sailor Moon, specifically featuring the character Tuxedo Mask. In the scene, Tuxedo Mask makes a dramatic exit after contributing very little to the battle, leading the protagonists to point out his lack of impact. It has since become a staple of internet culture to mock people who take credit for tasks they didn't actually perform or for situations where someone believes they’ve been helpful despite providing no actual assistance. It is widely used in corporate settings, group projects, and social media to call out performative effort and dramatic exits.
