What Is The 'Sundx AT6 Edit'? The Context Of The Viral AMV 'Bike Guy' Memes On TikTok Explained
The anime music video (AMV) community is going crazy over a recent edit by creator Sundx made for the AMV editing competition Apollo Tourney 6 (AT6), but probably not in a way that Sundx appreciates.
Recently, memes about the underwhelming AMV have been popping up across TikTok, many of which highlight a specific character from the edit known as the "bike guy."
So, what is AT6 exactly, who is Sundx, and why are people tearing this particular AMV apart? Here's what you need to know.
What Is The 'Sundx AT6 Edit'?
The viral phenomenon kicked off when YouTuber apollo x hosted their editing event called Apollo Tournament 6 on November 6th, 2026.
Apollo Tournament 6, or AT6 for short, is a competition where AMV editors pit their anime music video edits against one another.
At the 1:07:24 timestamp of the competition, editors Sundx and Dremane were pitted against one another, the former presenting an edit based on the anime film The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.
Many consider Sundx a talented AMV editor, but this edit didn't quite hit. A lot of viewers found it corny and unimpressive. In particular, a lot of people found a slowed-down shot of a man on a bike unintentionally funny.
This resulted in Sundx losing the match. He ended up with a score of 50 against Dremane's 109.5. If that wasn't bad enough, Sundx's failed AMV started spreading online over the next few days, where it became a meme everywhere from TikTok to X / Twitter.
How Are The 'Sundx AT6 Edit' And 'Bike Guy' Used In Memes?
The Sundx AMV first went viral outside of the tournament when a video of several Discord users reacting to it went viral the day after the competition.
In the reaction video, one viewer laughs, and then the rest burst out laughing when the "bike guy" rides by in slow motion. From there, the bike guy scene became the main focus of future reactions and memes.
Some of the most popular memes take the AMV and further edit it by adding flashy effects and replacing the music in the background.
Others are recreating the AMV and making edits that highlight just how bad Sundx lost the tournament. Meanwhile, other viewers are reacting with shock regarding how corny they find the AMV.
