The phrase is a standard Japanese way to walk back a statement, literally 'that was a lie,' and this clip is associated with Japanese YouTuber Hikakin and the Hikakin Mania meme edits that remix his voice lines. Short Japanese phrases like this travel well on soundboards because the timing is clear even for listeners who do not speak the language, especially when subtitles explain the twist. It remains popular as a compact fake-out button, shared between creators who need a quick, recognisable retraction for jokes, pranks and edited announcements.
O tym dźwięku
Japanese voice clip of Hikakin saying 'toiu no wa uso desu,' meaning that was a lie. Used as a playful fake-out reveal in meme edits and reactions.
This is a short Japanese voice line saying 'toiu no wa uso desu,' which translates to 'that was a lie.' Delivered in a clear, deadpan tone, it lands like an instant retraction after a bold claim or fake announcement. The humour comes from the abrupt honesty — the speaker builds up a statement, then cancels it in under two seconds. In edits it works as a punchline on its own, freezing the moment while the audience realises everything before it was a joke, a bluff, or a deliberate mislead.
