The anime meme in question was a painfully unfunny use of Crying Aya Asagiri girl asking the bearded dude from those yes chad memes to turn on google maps. The point of the joke was that the Chadman declined because he prefers to let his instincts guide him. Ba-dum-tsss. Of course, Elon simps flooded both his low-effort meme and the subsequent “We’ve all been there” response with hundreds of thousands of cock-riding likes. One person who didn’t find the lonely new Twitter owner’s spasmodic anime meme funny was Kentaro Sato, the artist behind the image of girl Crying Aya Asagiri. In fact, Sato wants the richest man in the world to pay him $1 billion for using his art without permission.
“Elon Musk, the new CEO of Twitter, reprinted my picture on Twitter without permission, so please give me 1 billion for the usage fee. in dollars,” Sato wrote, according to a Google translation.

While it’s uncertain if Sato will seriously hold Musk accountable for posting a crash of his artwork, his request that Musk have a Dr. Evil-like amount of money, certainly funnier than anything Musk has posted.
