About

"Konnichiwa, Dude!" is a quote and catchphrase commonly used on 4chan that originates from a comic panel made by Joshua Luna. The panel itself was subject of various memes, exploitables, edits, redraws and parodies over the course of several years.

Origin

The panel is from a comic strip titled "First Imprasians", which was posted for the first time on June 30th, 2016. Like other works that are part of Luna's AMERICANIZASIAN series, "First Imprasians" was drawn by Luna and shared concomitantly on his Twitter, Tumblr and Facebook profiles.[1][2][3] In the comic, Luna's self-insert character meets various people that give him contrasting opinions on his accent, looks, and identity, which makes him physically lower his head more and more in each subsequent panel (shown, below).

FIRST IMPRASIANS JosH LUNA SPEAK TAGALOG! CONNECT WITH YOUR ROOTS! YOU TOO AMERICAN! NOT ASIAN ENOUGH! IF YOU SPEAK TAGALOG, YOU'RE MOST LIKELY AN EAST COAST ASIAN. OR WORSE, F.O.B. YO, YOU TALK TOO WHITE, HOMIE. YOU ONE OF DEM "BANANA" ASIANS? YOU'RE FULL FILIPINO? I DON'T BELIEVE YOU. YOU'RE TOO TALL AND LIGHT. YOU LOOK CHINESE. AZN YOU ACTUALLY AREN'T EVEN ASIAN. FILIPINOS ARE PACIFIC ISLANDERS, KONNICHIWA, DUDE! I DON'T CARE ABOUT SPECIFIC ASIAN TYPES BECAUSE I DIG ALL ASIAN CHICKS. THEY'RE SO DOCILE AND TIGHT. CAN YOU HOOK ME UP?

In the final panel, he encounters a White American young man who greets him with the Japanese word "Konnichiwa" (こんにちは) and asks him to be hooked up with some Asian girls, which he considers to be "docile and tight". By the final panel, Luna's self-insert lowers his head to the point he's basically bowing to him (shown, below).

Konnichiwa, dude! I don't care about specific Asian types because I dig ALL Asian chicks. They're so docile and tight. Can you hook me up?

Spread

Although the comic was shared and met with a sympathetic reception on Facebook, 9GAG and on a Reddit post by ridukosennin on r/AsianMasculinity,[4][5][6][7] it gained most of its popularity when it was shared on various 4chan boards. 4chan's anonymous users directed their attention toward the final interaction in the comic, finding it funny and easy to use as an exploitable. On August 9th, 2020, an If You See This Image While Scrolling exploitable was posted on /int/ with the purpose of inviting other users to say "Konichiwa, dude!" (shown, below).[8] The catchphrase has been used across various boards in at least 4,030 posts ever since.[9][10][11]
