The clip comes from SMG4: Final Hours, an episode of the long-running SMG4 web series that reimagines Mario characters in chaotic, meme-driven stories. Meggy, originally introduced as an Inkling from Splatoon, became one of the show's central heroes, so her emotional moments carry extra weight for longtime viewers. After the episode aired, fans clipped the crying audio for soundboards and reaction edits, where it spread beyond SMG4 fans to general meme creators. It remains popular because it is short, instantly emotional and easy to drop into almost any sad or overdramatic scene.

Meggy crying from SMG4: Final Hours, an emotional clip of the character sobbing. Creators use it for sad, dramatic or ironic reaction moments in edits.
This eight-second clip captures Meggy, the cheerful Inkling-inspired heroine from the SMG4 series, breaking down in tears during a particularly emotional scene. Her sobbing is raw and uneven, shifting between sharp gasps, shaky breaths and softer whimpers, which makes it feel genuinely upset rather than cartoonishly exaggerated. Because listeners already know Meggy as an upbeat and determined character, hearing her cry lands with surprising weight, turning a short audio moment into something viewers instantly recognise as sadness, heartbreak or loss. It works just as well played straight for a touching moment as it does played ironically, where the sincerity of the crying makes a joke land harder.
