About

I See You're a Man of Culture is a reaction image featuring a screenshot of the character Last Samurai from the anime Arakawa Under the Bridge with the caption "Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well." The image is often accompanied by mock dialogues used to express good taste in a specific hobby or interest. However, some report that the subtitles in the meme are not official.

Origin

In Season 2 Episode 9 of Arakawa Under the Bridge, originally aired on November 28th, 2010, the character Last Samurai is shown coyly uttering the phrase "Ah, I see you are a man of culture as well" when discussing the top knot hairstyle around 17 minutes into the episode (shown below).



On November 16th, 2015, a 4chan user replied to a thread on the /ck/ (cooking) board discussing chain pizza restaurants with a screenshot of the scene (shown below).[8]



Spread

On March 7th, 2017, the Weebs making fun of weebs for being weebs Facebook page posted the screenshot captioned with a dialogue in which a friend selects "thighs" over "ass" and "tits" (shown below). The following day, the image was reposted by the @dankest_memes_m8 Instagram page.[6]

On March 11th, 2017, Redditor Noodletank submitted a post advising readers to "invest quickly" in the reaction image to /r/MemeEconomy.[2] On March 13th, Redditor ShreksAnus69 posted a version of the image espousing a taste for ''illegal Minecraft x Roblox trap'' to /r/dankmemes,[5] where it received upwards of 2,700 votes (98% upvoted) within one week (shown below, left). On May 15th, 2016, a 4chan user submitted a post asking where the "man of culture" meme originated to the /wsr/ (work safe requests) board, where another user replied with a screenshot of the Arakawa Under the Bridge scene.[1] That day, Redditor AssaSinLife posted a Runescape-themed image macro to the /r/2007scape[3] subreddit (shown below, right).
