I vaguely remember someone doing this during a conversation in a bar in Japan years ago, and I saw it again in a manga. What does this mean, if anything? I don’t remember what the conversation was about, and we were all drinking so I wouldn’t trust my memory anyway

    Western weeb here, I think that’s the pose they make in anime when they want to beg someone to do something like asking for a big favour.

      Yep seems like the emoji🙏 but over the head to increase the intensity
      Sort of like bowing vs bowing while knees are on the floor.

      Interesting, any special weeb insights why they do it like this? Does it make it easier to draw maybe? Just stands out?
