Space☆Dandy, the titular character of the 2014 anime directed by Shinichiro Watanabe, became a meme icon thanks to his over-the-top pompadour, flamboyant personality, and his signature catchphrase, 'Stay dandy, baby.' The show's psychedelic art style and genre-bending episodes provided a goldmine for reaction images and absurdly confident captions. Memes usually revolve around Dandy’s unwavering self-esteem, his quest for rare aliens to earn a quick buck, or his deep philosophical appreciation for the restaurant chain 'Booobies.' It is frequently used by fans to represent peak self-confidence or a laid-back, stylish approach to even the most chaotic intergalactic situations.
