Japanese Emoticon List
Here’s a pretty cool list of the top 30 or so Japanese Emoticons. Asian emoticons generally seem to come in the following form:
emoticon ::= ear (eye mouth/nose eye) ear
The trick is that you have to visualize a face laid out horizontally instead of vertically, after which the Asian-style emoticon directly resembles a human face:
- (^_^)
- (>_< )>
- (^_^;)
- (ToT)
- m(_ _)m
- (^^;)
- ( ̄ー ̄)
- (≧∇≦)
- ( ̄□ ̄;)
- (#^.^#)
I like the last one best (#^.^#) Some other lists of emoticons can be found below:

There’s now a rubber stamp so you can create Japanese style emoticons
http://www.japansugoi.com/wordpress/japanese-emoticon-rubber-stamp-just-for-otaku/
(O_=) eye twitch
ಠ_ಠ ← my fave emoticon~! ( ◔ ౪◔)
Actually “>.<" is troubled. it's two eyes pressed together (kinda like saying "I don't wanna see/hear")
<.< is a shy look to left
<_< = annoyed/ashamed to look at something "stupid"
-.- or -_- = annoyed
x.X = exhausted/troubled
@.@ = confused
._. = disappointed
o.o = looking (questioning)
o.O = wondering
o_o = wondering/surprised
O.O = surprised/shocked
Q(°A°Q) = "put em up" (raising fist. Q = fist, ° = eyes, A = opened mouth. theoretically you could erase the bottom two lines so you just have a triangle)
=3= = "blah", kinda lazy look or (also "cbf")
and so on..
at least that's how I use them in a chat…
(°w°)/)) *wave*
Ok so I have a friend that I talk to online and he always does this: ^^
I dont know what this means and I would like to figure out
Thanks
” ^^ ” Is a happy face. Its equivalent to
or
and is almost giggly. It’s also drawn like ” ^.^ ” or ” ^_^ ” or ” ^w^ ” ” ^o^ ” Which are similar.
