WRYYYYYY!

The eerie cry of "WRYYYYYY!" (uriiiiii, pronounced ree) is a shriek given off by the vampires throughout JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. While all vampires in the series are prone to doing so, this noise is most commonly associated with Dio Brando.

A resurgence of popular interest in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure occured when "WRYYYYYY" began making the rounds as an internet meme, sparked by a flash movie which features stick figures performing the signature attacks of five different characters. Dio Brando's features his use of The World to freeze time, a barrage of throwing knives, and finishes with a steamroller dropping on his opponent, atop which he leans back and exclaims "WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!". While amusing to fans of the series, this proved hilariously random to those unfamiliar with JoJo. This internet phenomenon has spread mostly from the 4chan imageboards.

It is of interesting note that a debate has sprung up regarding the proper spelling of "WRYYYYYY", specifically how many Y's it should contain. While many argue that the 20-Y "WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" is the only "correct" spelling (assumedly since this is the amount of Y's featured in the flash movie), those who have read JoJo's Bizarre Adventure will note that not only is there no set amount of letters in the manga, but "WRYYYYYY" is actually a less common portrayal of the vampire cry, which is spelled as "URIIII" or "URYYYYY" far more frequently. A six-Y "WRYYYYYY" returns over 10,000 entries on Google, which is far more than any other spelling.
