About

The King of GETs (often abbreviated to just "KoG") is an in-joke GET commonly associated with the number 5. The meme is specific to 4chan's /a/ board, although it has since migrated to other boards, such as /v/, /jp/, /b/, and /vp/.

Origin

The origin of the King of GETs can be dated back to November 24th, 2007, to a thread on 4chan's /a/ board. In that thread, a user posted an image of Yami Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh! Season 0 and commented that if his post ends with 5, Masaki Andoh's sister dies. Over time, the image posted with this post became the most common image associated with the King of GETs.

This picture shows a King of GETs post on /biz/ with eight fives.

Spread

The King of GETs has gotten countless posts that have ended in a 5, resulting in a massive explosion of GET threads on /a/ involving nothing but getting 5 GETs. This peaked around 2012 when King of GETs threads were so common on /a/ that the below image was used to describe them:


The Deconstruction of a Daily KoG METATHREAD in 2012 Yami holding up an Exodia card image Exodia Bateman image "crno will always be my #1 :3" Cirno image Bateman clock with hand pointing to 889 (889.jpg) If it's 1111, Bateman with a digital clock that says 11:11 (1111.jpg) "wow, that sure was lucky Pun on the number 2 7 Completed Yu-Gi-Oh! card image Bateman clock with hand pointing to 223 (223.jpg) Devil Bateman image Yami image going for 665 3% a Crowd (333.jpg) yugiyamiv4fore.jpg Yami image going for 445 Yami image Upside-down Cirno image Cirno holding up three fingers image thepostbelowmindendedinfive.jpg If it's 4444, quadsteakburrito.jpg


Alongside the standard Yami Yugi image, an image of Yami Yugi holding up a five of diamonds is also popular. However, that image is an edit. In the original show, the card was an ace of diamonds:


Ace of Diamonds Ace Ace of Diamonds of Diamo ce of Dian Ace OT DIBTODnds Victorv is mine Victorv IS mine


Whenever a poster wishes to show that he wants to start a thread involving GETs, all he needs to do is post a Yami Yugi image from Season 0 and have his post number end in 5. This would, in turn, start a "GET Game" to see how many others could have their posts end in 5. A popular alternative of this on /v/ is to wait until a thread reaches the bump limit. After that, one would start attempting as many 5 GETs as possible until the thread archives.

Notable Examples

Below shows some edits of the standard Yami Yugi image:
