A popular genre in Japanese media is the Isekai or “another world” genre, in which the main character is brought from our world to a different one. There are many mechanisms by which this happens such as portals or summoning magic, but the most common method by far is reincarnation after death.
Because it’s more interesting if the death is sudden and the main character is unprepared, the death is usually in some sort of accident. The most commonly used accident is a car accident, usually with a truck like the one seen in the post here.
Therefore it’s become a meme among people who consume Isekai stories that “Truck-kun” will send you to the afterlife.
