Lapis Lazuli is a Gem character from Steven Universe, the Cartoon Network animated series created by Rebecca Sugar that ran from 2013 to 2019 and was voiced by Jennifer Paz. Fans clipped and stretched her dramatic vocal moments into short audios that travel well on soundboards and in fan edits. The exaggerated name shout became a standalone reaction sound rather than a piece of dialogue, shared for moments of shock or melodrama. Its popularity comes from how recognisable the character is to fans while still reading as pure overreaction to everyone else.
