In honor of the anime Initial D and its main protagonist car, the Toyota AE86 ("Hachi-Roku") Rule 86 states that every movable object on this planet has the ability to move in a way that is defined with the term "controlled slide" or in layman's terms: "If it exists, it can drift."
"Look at that iceberg, why is it moving sideways??"

"Rule 86, if it exists, it can drift"

"NANI?"

Toyota 86 

A typical hairdressers car, cheap and unreliable but made to look like a hot wheels car from Woolworths. This car has sporty-looks with a performance below bang average, and has been the worst performing Toyota on the market. Do not confuse this car to be in the same category of the elite Supra and the Toyota 89. The 86 is just a knock off version of the elites made for uni students to pick up girls. Most people who drive this car are going through a midlife identity crisis and it's important to use kind and understanding words while speaking to them. A true car enthusiast would never touch the wheel of the 86, by tradition.

a reference from kpop youtube webseries ‘Alien Stage’, made by Vivinos and her girlfriend QMeng.

It is a reference of the first round or episode one, shown in the last part of the video, where the scores of two among six of the main cast, Mizi and Sua, are being calculated. Mizi scores 87 and Sua scores 86, and if you have lower points than your opponent, you die, so Sua dies.

It’s a popular reference within the alien stage fandom with it’s other counterpart, 89/70, because Mizi and Sua are among the most shipped people, and it is heavily implied they are canon within the show and comics.
