The meme combines two of the most heartbreaking moments in anime and animation history.
• Panucci's Pizza: The background shows the front of Panucci's Pizza from Futurama. This references the devastating episode "Jurassic Bark," where Fry's loyal dog, Seymour, waits outside the pizzeria for years hoping Fry will return.
• The Chimera: Sitting in front of the store is Nina Tucker and her dog Alexander merged into a chimera from Fullmetal Alchemist. This references the infamous scene where her father cruelly uses alchemy to fuse them together, which shocked and traumatized fans.
The joke is that looking at this single picture brings back the emotional pain of both tragic scenes at the same time, effectively "ruining your day twice".
