Our Japanese language students are probably all familiar with the popular Japanese custom of striking a pose when taking photos.
Arguably the most popular of these is the “peace sign”, which has become fashionable all over the world.<\/p>\n

Well, the peace sign isn’t the only pose to be seen in Japanese photos. In fact, the custom of posing for photos is such a big deal here that there are websites<\/a>, blog posts<\/a>, and even TV show segments<\/a> entirely dedicated to the most recent popular “kawaii” poses for girls.<\/p>\n

And in one survey ran by one of the above-mentioned TV show segments, almost all of the participants said that they knew and utilized the most recent poses in their photos.<\/p>\n

One pose that recently made news over here is the \u866b\u6b6f\u30dd\u30fc\u30ba (\u3080\u3057\u3070\u30dd\u30fc\u30ba – “cavity pose”) – one hand held at a slight angle over the cheek, creating a slimming line to give the appearance of a thinner face (so called because it gives the appearance of having a toothache!)<\/p>\n

In fact, the pose has gained so much popularity that magazines aimed at young women feature it frequently on their covers.<\/p>\n

A variation of this pose is called the \u982c\u306b\u624b\u30dd\u30fc\u30ba (\u307b\u307b\u306b\u3066\u30dd\u30fc\u30ba – “hands on cheek pose”), where both hands are placed on the face at a slight angle. This pose is often seen on the blogs and Twitters of Japanese idols:<\/p>\n

But arguably the best version of this pose ever seen was by GenkiJACS’ very own Aya-sensei!<\/p>\n
