Pop Team Epic, based on the four-panel webcomic by Bkub Okawa, became a global sensation for its surreal, meta, and often nonsensical humor involving the short-tempered Popuko and the calm Pipimi. The meme templates typically draw from the anime's bizarre segments, such as the 'Are you upset?' dialogue or the duo flipping the bird at the audience. It is widely used across social media to express feigned indifference, extreme annoyance, or simply to embrace the absurd. Because the original series frequently breaks the fourth wall and parodies pop culture, the memes serve as a versatile tool for making sharp, satirical, or completely random observations about modern internet life.
