Ghost Stories, known in Japan as Gakkou no Kaidan, became famous in English through its ADV Films dub, which rewrote much of the serious horror script as improvised comedy. Clips from that dub spread widely online in the 2010s as reaction sounds and meme edits. This line survives because the delivery is so flat that it can be lifted into almost any awkward moment as a fake explanation. Its popularity is tied less to the original episode than to the dub's reputation for unexpected, out-of-pocket jokes.

The Ghost Stories English dub line 'because you're black' delivered as a deadpan punchline, used as a blunt reaction clip for awkward call-out moments.
This is a short voice clip from the infamous English dub of Ghost Stories, lasting just over a second and built entirely around one deadpan line: 'because you're black.' It is delivered flat and matter-of-fact, with no build-up in the audio itself, which is exactly why it lands as an abrupt punchline. The humor comes from the sudden, blunt explanation dropped into an unrelated conversation. Stripped of its scene, it works as a reaction sound that instantly turns a moment awkward, sarcastic, or deliberately over-literal for comedic effect.
