Kawaii

Kawaii, also written as “かわいい”(meaning “cute”, pronounced kawaī) a common term used by middle school girls who have no idea what the hell it even means and if they do, they are most likely a weaboo. There’s a small chance that they may actually be studying Japanese, but in this day and age, kids have an attention span of 2 seconds, so this is uncommon.

かわいい first came up as a statement against traditional Japanese culture in the 1970’s, and though the adorable genre still massively popular, the word itself has been associated with 12-14 year old white girls who’s only interaction with Japanese culture is through anime, an artist on Pixiv who doesn’t even understand them, or hentai. This word will always be written out in it’s English form(Kawaii) and never in the actual language, though nobody expects them to look it up and at least try to write it.

This word will be plastered all over a drawing, usually of an anime girl with pink hair, pale, pale skin, and big round shiny eyes accompanied with a sharp chin holding a kitten or puppy. The colors will be blinding and is either on Tumblr,DeviantArt, or both.

Oh my god, that drawing is so kawaii!

Meh

A way that 10 year old kids on the internet type me to seem more unique when talking to people. Gacha kids seem to use it often.

I didn’t know that meh drawings were so good!

Joshu Higashikata

Joshu is a Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure(ジョジョの奇妙な冒険) character, appearing in Part 8, Jojolion. The character sports an ugly bowl cut, a strip of hair on both sides of his head completely cut off, making it all the more uglier. He is somehow adorable because of his retarded tendencies. He fawns over Yashuo Hirose, the first female character we see in this Part and one who plays a large role in Josuke 8’s life as he recovers from memory loss. At the beginning Joshu tries to kill Josuke 8, but cannot do so. Joshu states that he doesn’t believe in God, making him an athiest, confirmed by his wiki page. He is thought to be the reincarnation of Okuyasu, but as we’ve seen not every character has a reincarnated equivalent, so he’s probably just a new character in general.

Joshu, in the end, is an annoying sidekick who once as far as we know tried to rape Yashuo, is a piece of shit to Josuke 8, but has an amazing looking Stand.

“Joshu Higashikata is cute!”
“Joshu Higashikata is disgusting.”
There are two people in this world.

Wattpad

Starting up in 2006, the site was meant to be for fan works AND original writing, plus some more, bringing people together to criticize and help other aspiring writers and exposing some talented writers to the spotlights. Nowadays it is filled to the brim with almost only fanfiction, with nearly no original work besides the ones you can see on the main page, and even then those aren’t very original either, using many common tropes(also known as a cliché) now associated with Wattpad writing. Wattpad started to really become more recognized as in 2009, the mobile application had been downloaded millions of times.

The site hasn’t gone to hell just yet, with a very active userbase and very friendly people if you know where to look. It currently, as of 2019, contains over 60 Million users and many stories still being published every day.

I publish my works on Wattpad. My first story hasn’t gotten much attention, but hopefully if I keep writing more chapters people will see it.
