About
Saiba Momoi Says The N-Word refers to a viral Blue Archive fan animation in which the character Saiba Momoi is making a high-pitched squeak, but as the audio is slowed down, it appears as though she is saying the N-Word. The video became popular as a reaction video and inspired fan art joking that the character is racist.
Origin
On April 24th, 2024, Facebook[1] user Jay Kredd uploaded a clip of streamer IShowSpeed on a Discord server watching a fan animation of the character Saiba Momoi from Blue Archive making a high-pitched squeaking noise, though as the audio is progressively slowed down, it sounds as though she is saying the N-word, causing IShowSpeed to act shocked. The video received over 92,000 reactions and 11,800 shares in one month (shown below).
It's possible the character is saying a word in Japanese that sounds phonetically similar to the N-word, but that is unconfirmed.
