About
I'm Like Totally Emo and Stuff Now is an exploitable webcomic in which Nyami from Pop'n Music, dressed in black and smoking, tells Mimi that she's emo now because the world is "dumb and stuff." The comic was posted by X / Twitter artist @SouperSaucer in November 2023 and became the subject of redraws and edits over the following years, most of which replace the characters.

In the comic, Nyami, dressed in black and smoking, tells Mimi," I'm like… totally emo and stuff now."
