Kenshiro's legendary line Omae wa mou shindeiru has its own "Know Your Meme" page:

Quote:
"You Are Already Dead" / "Omae Wa Mou Shindeiru"






About

"You Are Already Dead" (Japanese: お前はもう死んでいる; Omae Wa Mou Shindeiru) is an expression from the manga and anime series Fist of the North Star (Japanese: 北斗の拳; Hokuto no Ken). The catchphrase is often combined with an image of the lead character Kenshiro pointing at viewer, which has gained usage as a reaction image in arguments on image boards and discussion forums.

Origin

Originally premiered in Japan in 1983, the series Fist of the North Star centered around the protagonist Kenshiro, a master of the martial art style Hokuto Shinken. Unlike other martial art styles, Kenshiro's Hokuto Shinken attacked the opponent's body through pressure points. Upon unleashing his attack, including his signature move Hokuto Hyakuretsu-ken, his victims would be told that they were "already dead" before their bodies would erupt from the inside.

Spread

On August 5th, 2010, a page titled "You Are Already Dead" was created on TV Tropes,[1] describing it as a martial arts trope involving finishing moves that have a delayed effect, including diagonal sword cuts, pressure point and ki attacks. (...)

Meloni Chan Anime Meme Of Giorgia Meloni Explained As It Goes Viral On Twitter After She Becomes Italian PM

(...) Meloni Chan Anime Meme Of Giorgia Meloni Explained After It Goes Viral On Twitter After She Becomes Italian PM
(...)
Meloni Chan memes, an anime take on the politician who has accompanied Giorgia Meloni throughout her leadership ambitions. Are likely familiar to those who follow her.
(...)
Giorgia Meloni has enlisted the help of other anime characters, including Meloni Chan, to get them involved in politics.

Capitan Harlock, a Japanese comic space pirate, was used by Meloni on April 9 to make a reference to her own nation.
(...)
Over the years, Meloni has been outspoken about her love of fantasy. Meloni sang with the folk group Compagnia dell’Anello at a “H. obbit Camp” she attended as a young activist with the Italian Social Movement (MSI). Whose name translates to “Foundation Of The Ring.” Tolkein served as an influence for the nicknames of Meloni’s MSI teammates.

According to the Italian website Dr Commodore, Meloni began using the alias Khy-ri in chat rooms while she was in her 20s. She referred to herself as the “little dragon of the Italian undernet.” Even Meloni gave her political gathering the name Atreju after the Italian name for “Atreyu.” The protagonist of the epic fantasy film The NeverEnding Story (1984).

Fantasy, in the opinion of Giorgia Meloni, “reflects what conservatives believe in.”

Meloni and Italian conservatives believe that the fantasy-fiction genre embodies the principles they are attempting to promote through their politics.
