Just as planned

Just As Planned comes from the anime Death Note. After the main character, Light, pulls off an improbably elaborate scheme, he grins and thinks “Just as planned!”

On 4chan the image is used whenever a gullible/stupid n00b falls into a trap, or anonymous is claiming credit for some crazy convoluted scheme. Conversely, Not As Planned (with an inverted smile) is for when things have gone a bit pear-shaped.

I think “I’ll take a potato chip…and eat it!!” is bigger than this. But, this is still funny, however.

I can see how this could be used, but I don’t see where you mention what forums this is popular on. Are we to assume this is only popular among Death Note fans?

Never actually heard of that potato chip one, Goomba.

Chris: Up in the origins I’ve said it originated from 4chan. I’ll edit the article though to make it clearer. It might be used on Death Note forums; I have no idea.

Same as the SAKUJO-gasm thing.. mostly popular for Death Note fans.

Though, I would consider the ending of Death Note as a japanese meme. There are a lot of music remixes of the ending. I’ve started to gather somes on my youtube profile before realising it was the product of Nicodouga ^^ :
My most favorite one (kirby inside) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmYRSZUxHu8
To find them on youtube : http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%E5%A4%9C%E7%A5%9E%E6%9C%88&search=tag

Of course, there are more on Nicodouga :)

I looked around and this seems pretty much exclusive to fans of those Death Note Japanese cartoons.

I think it’s too niche to be a meme.

Erase it, it isn’t a meme, is for otakus/DN fans.

It’s not just for death note fans. The meme has been adapted by 4chan’s traditional games board, and by extension warhammer 40k fans.
