The 'Things That Look Like Bocchi' meme trend emerged following the massive success of the 2022 anime 'Bocchi the Rock!'. It centers on the protagonist, Hitori 'Bocchi' Gotoh, whose signature pink hair and blue-and-yellow hair ties make her color palette easily recognizable. Fans began spotting her likeness in mundane objects—like pink trash cans, buildings, or even laundry—leading to a wave of 'schizoposting' where users jokingly claim to see the character everywhere. The meme highlights the community's obsession with the character's distinct design and her frequent visual glitches within the show, turning simple pattern recognition into a viral internet phenomenon.
