Andromeda Shun is one of the main Bronze Saints in Saint Seiya, also known internationally as Knights of the Zodiac, and his calm, kind nature has made him a frequent target of fan jokes for decades. In Brazil, where the series was hugely popular on television in the 1990s, boiola became a common playground taunt added by fans to his name. This shortened shout circulated on soundboards and chat apps as a ready made insult, kept alive because older anime fans instantly recognise both the character and the teasing tone.
