The "Is This a Pigeon?" meme originates from a scene in the 1991 Japanese anime "The Brave Fighter of Sun Fighbird." It features a character mistakenly identifying a butterfly as a pigeon, which is the result of a mistranslation in the English dub. The meme has gained popularity as an exploitable image macro where the character's outstretched hand and confused expression are used to humorously label various objects or concepts as something they are clearly not. This format highlights misunderstandings or amusingly erroneous associations, making it a versatile template for expressing confusion or misidentification in a wide range of contexts.
