About
Angry Dog Noises refers to a series of reaction images and Photoshop parodies of the character Kyouko Kasodani from Ten Desires, the thirteenth installment of the Touhou Project video game series. The image comes from a doujin and has since been the subject of parodies and reaction images.
Origin
On May 8th, 2016, the doujin 命蓮寺絵日記 まとめ ("Myourenji Enikki Matome") was released at Reitaisai 13, an annual Touhou convention. The image comes from a panel in which the character Kyouko screams (shown below).
Later that year, on August 31st, an anonymous 4chan user posted the image to the /jp/ board under the thread "what doggie says?"[2] The Japanese writing, however, had been photoshopped out of the image, so that it could be used as a template.
Spread
On September 4th, Facebook account Touhou Meme posted the image of Kyouko screaming "Angry Dog Noises" in English.[3] In the image, the erasure marks are the same as the one from 4chan, making it appear as though this is based on that template. The post (shown below) received more than 190 reactions and 350 shares.
The image became a popular subject of photoshop parodies, adding in different characters and corresponding sounds (shown below, center and right, respectively). On July 2nd, 2017, Facebook user hewsgraphicsSAFE posted one of the angry dog sounds replaced by "happy bell sounds." The post (shown below) received more than 1,000 reactions and 250 shares.[4]
