About

"Pixel Pig" is an electronic song by Di Young released in February 2020. The song gained virality in amateur animations over the course of 2020 and 2021, inspiring a series of animations known as "XD animations," often depicting anime and Gacha characters dancing to it. The song also became popularized on TikTok in late 2021 as the subject of lip dubs.
