What the hell does "kawaii" mean?

It's Japanese for cute, if I'm not mistaken.

[SANTA KNOWS EVERYTHING.]
thepoweroflove: (Aaah...)

[personal profile] thepoweroflove 2012-01-21 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
Can't they just call me cute? It sounds like they're calling me an island when they say "kawaii"

[Not that he minds girls calling him cute, of course.]
worry_me: (Helping)

[The island joke makes him laugh.]

They are though, just with a different word.

But what's so wrong about saying "cute"? I'm pretty sure they're allowed to say that in the future.
worry_me: (Confused)

[personal profile] worry_me 2012-01-21 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
... The future?
thepoweroflove: (D8>)

[personal profile] thepoweroflove 2012-01-21 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I mean I'm from 1985. Someone told me it was 2012 right now.
worry_me: (Uhm)

[personal profile] worry_me 2012-01-21 08:33 am (UTC)(link)
You're... what?

This place is a nexus, right? It's like where people from every universe or any year come together.

[Pleasepleaseplease believe him.]

Now that's an unfamiliar piece of vocable. Have you tried using it in a sentence?

'Kawaii' means in English 'cute, adorable'.

[Say hello to the giant, Japanese robot. Or maybe you only see him through the screen of a device?]

[personal profile] friendship_reporter 2012-01-22 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
It's what the robot and the Santa said.

The reason that they use the Japanese word is so that they can feel like you're "just like in one of their Japanese animes!".

Whatever that means.
thepoweroflove: (I would really like context now)

[personal profile] thepoweroflove 2012-01-22 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
Well they just said I was kawaii. I really don't know how to put in in a sentence.
thepoweroflove: (D8)

[personal profile] thepoweroflove 2012-01-22 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
[He's seen a couple of giant robots in his game, so he's a little less freaked out by you. Still...]

How many of you guys are there?
thepoweroflove: (Looking over sholder)

[personal profile] thepoweroflove 2012-01-22 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, he's heard about these pony things.]

... But I'm not from Japan!
deckerd_bp110: (neutral / serious)

[personal profile] deckerd_bp110 2012-01-22 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
It depends on whom you mean. I think most of the 'guys' you mean are Transformers or 'Cybertronians', at least I've seen many around here that call themselves that.

I don't belong to them, however, as I'm from Earth. Or rather from my respective Earth, built by humans and my mind is very human-like. There are others who are like me but so far, I'm the only one of my group present. [A short shadow passes over his face at that, along a note of sadness in his voice. Then it's gone again.]

It's staggering for me, too, to see so many sentient robots although they are from a different planet.
