Den Den Mushi appear in Eiichiro Oda's One Piece, which began as a manga in 1997 and as an anime in 1999, as living snails that function like telephones across the Grand Line. Different types handle calls, broadcasts and surveillance, with their facial expressions often mimicking the speaker. Clips of their ringing have circulated in anime edits, soundboards and fan videos, where the familiar call instantly identifies a One Piece reference without any dialogue. Its continued popularity comes from that instant recognition and from how easily the loop works as a ringtone or transition.

The Den Den Mushi ringing sound from One Piece, the transponder snail call used as a phone alert, meme cue and anime edit sound effect online.
This clip is the repetitive ringing call of a Den Den Mushi, the snail-like transponder used for long-distance communication in One Piece. Instead of a normal phone tone it makes a distinctive puru puru puru style ring that loops with a slightly organic, wobbling character, instantly signalling an incoming call from another character. Because the sound is so recognisable to anime fans, hearing it creates immediate anticipation, as if an important message, warning or plot twist is about to arrive, even when it is dropped into an unrelated scene for comic effect.
