In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Belle bite” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 1224 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3496 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Belle bite” meme mean?
The joke relies on contrast: a famous, serious and emotional ending is turned into a goofy gag through a rewritten caption or voice-over. The applause aimed at Shinji becomes a wildly inappropriate compliment. People use it to undercut a sentimental moment, to congratulate someone in an over-the-top way, or as a wink among anime fans who know how the series ends.
Where does the “Belle bite” meme come from?
The scene being parodied is the conclusion of Neon Genesis Evangelion, aired on TV Tokyo from October 4, 1995 to March 27, 1996. In the closing moments Shinji overcomes the negative emotions tormenting him and joins the other characters, who congratulate him. French-speaking fans reused the sequence to insert a comedic line, with a rewritten caption or voice-over. Shared as short clips and captions, the result came to stand for the joke on its own, well beyond the series’ fanbase.

How to get the “Belle bite” card
Every pack holds 5 meme cards, the first 3 of them Common; Belle bite comes out of the Memes FR pack as a rare card. The pack odds say what each rarity weighs.
Your first pack is free and needs no account. After that a new free pack lands every 10 minutes, up to 3 waiting for you. You can also buy the card with MemeCoins on the market, bid for it at auction, or trade it — and a double recycles into 10 MemeCoins.
The reprint of the “Belle bite” card
The “Belle bite” card was reprinted as Epic (No. 1,651). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was rare. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.
Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.
MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
