“Shikanoko” is widely associated online with the viral chant from the anime My Deer Friend Nokotan, whose opening spread quickly across TikTok, shorts and anime meme pages in 2024. The repetitive melody and unusual phrasing made it instantly recognizable, turning it into a go-to audio for surreal humor and anime edits. It stays popular because the hook is short, catchy and easy to pair with visual nonsense, much like other anime meme sounds such as Tuturu.
