This is like the eastern version of this fighting game meme.

Ah yes, my favorite Knightmare Frame, the VF-23

Any particular reason this is in Current Events?

This was because of the time when BBC was reporting on the Olympics back in 2020, and then called the RX-78-2 in Yokohama a Transformer. Naturally, the public joked about BBC's ceiling of their grasp of mecha with art like this.

When the source was posted, it was current. I said "back in 2020" but actually the Tokyo Olympics happened in 2021, because COVID cancelled the original date.
