What does the “#RedrawReigen” meme mean?

It is a form of affectionate detournement that values fan creativity around a highly recognizable face.

Where does the “#RedrawReigen” meme come from?

The hashtag #RedrawReigen was launched on Twitter on September 18, 2016, by user @Doonadraws. They posted two original drawings of Arataka Reigen, from the anime *Mob Psycho 100*, mimicking stock photographs: a man eating a salad and a woman pointing a gun at a goldfish. The concept involves redrawing Reigen in recognizable poses, scenes, or visual templates, particularly awkward stock photos or reaction images. The character becomes a recurring subject of graphic detournement. Spread expanded to Tumblr the next day, with compilations posted by Feriowind and Mega-tsuna. This practice is described as a sub-genre of redrawing originating from Twitter before spreading to other platforms.
