No. 6 definitely is an anime.

  These conversations happen so often about anime I wonder if there is some sort of working memory limit on the participants that rapidly removes context from the comment they're replying to: > > > > > Here are some waifus: [lenna, 6rem, natsuki] > > > > That's neet, one of them is best girl > > > lenna isn't from an anime, she exists irl > > Are we reading the same comment? That's just your opinion, man > 6rem is best spacing and material design is justice It's like some sort of tone-deaf comedy skit.

    I've gotten enough upvotes here (4) that I feel I need to ~~ruin~~ explain the joke, lest HN get the idea that this is upvote-worthy in general. This is low-effort humor. I took the comment above and replaced words with memes from anime, tech, and earlier in this conversation thread. There's no (intentionally) meaningful relation between rem and Rem, or the number 6, I was just pattern matching things that sounded similar. Basically the equivalent of an "I hardly know her" joke. Funny only for the meme value, and not what I come to HN for. In this particular thread, ^^that^^ is the joke — that we mistake unrelated comments as meaningful replies.

      I personally found the metajoke amusing, whether it was intended or not. The comment, low effort as it is is no different from the comment chain it describes. Great stuff.
