Sho Minamimoto is a Reaper antagonist in Square Enix's action role-playing game The World Ends With You, first released in Japan in 2007. Known for his obsession with mathematics and his theatrical, condescending manner, he often speaks in short, mocking bursts that underline his belief that he is smarter than everyone around him. Short voice clips from the game have circulated on soundboards and in fan edits, where this brief laugh is reused as a shorthand for smug villainy, even by viewers who have never played the original game.
