So, You Want To Be Kawaii Too?

Here is a self-explanatory picture guide on how one would execute the stereotypical OVERDONE OMFG IF YOU DO IT ONE MORE TIME AND ACTUALLY MEAN IT I SWEAR I WILL EAT YOUR DOG Japanese Kawaii 1,2 and 5 finger(s) poses.

Enjoy.

kawaii1.jpg
The classic "1-finger" pose favoured by many Japanese school girls, overworked aging women desperately clinging on to their youths (ie, me), and faggoty gayboys who like it up their arses.

kawaii2.jpg
"2-fingers" poses are popular with fans of Bishojo and Bishonen animes (damn you Sailormoon).

kawaii3.jpg
The "5-fingers" posers are considered to be rebels and are shunted by its close relatives, the "1-finger" and "2-fingers" posers, because they had DARED to defy the NORM which is absolutely UNHEARD OF in the law-abiding homogenus Japanese society.

There you go. Now go forth and inflict it upon others as they have upon you.

Meanwhile,

Here's what I think of your fucking try-hard kawaii poses, bitches.

    Somehow they don't seem so annoying when you're doing it.

    But it's probably just the stalker in me speaking.

    hah!

    There should be some sort of counting algorithm to keep track of how many nosebleeds are cause by you flicking the bird.

    You are technically breaking the law in 3 out of your 4 photos. Malaysian law states the following:

    "You will be detained and/or arrested if you don’t have the required two fingers showing in every photo."
    or
    "No photo can be printed or reproduced without the standard 2 finger pose expressed clearly in the photo. Any photo without the requisite two fingers showing must be:
    A. Photoshopped to include said 2 fingers prominently in photo.
    Or:
    B. Baring the ability or time to Photoshop, the offending photo must be destroyed at an accredited government facility. Failure to comply with this law will result in the immediate revocation of your digital camera and internet privileges. Disregarding said law more than twice will result in imprisonment for a minimum sentence of 10 years hard labor and maximum sentence of death. Implied or blurry representations of fingers will be considered in violation of the above law and subject you to the full implementation of said penalties."

    Seriously, I’m not from Malaysia but am interested in it. What is up with Malaysian girls and the two finger photo pose. 90% of the photos of girls from Malaysia have them holding up 2 fingers in the peace sign. How did this become such a common thing?

    Manuel Hung : uhh.... 90&? I didn't know they did an actual proper research on the subject. Besides, she was talking about JAPANESE girls, not Malaysian girls.

    But i'm not denying that this trend exists in Malaysia, like how trends usually DO exist in countries other than their own.

    A side effect of the "Look East" policy, I reckon. *grimace*
