Overview

Overview

The kaomoji ヽ(ˇヘˇ)ノ shows a character lifting both arms in an energetic, grumpy outburst. The

ヽ

on the left and

ノ

on the right look like raised arms thrown up in the air, as if the person is exclaiming "Why?!" or "Ugh, seriously?!" In the center, the face is wrapped by parentheses, and

ˇヘˇ

creates a very irritated expression: the two

ˇ

shapes look like sharp, slanted brows and eyes, and the

ヘ

in the middle forms an angular mouth or nose that adds to the angry, complaining feel.

Emotional tone

Emotionally, ヽ(ˇヘˇ)ノ sits between anger, annoyance and exasperated protest. It’s not a cold, distant shrug. Instead, it’s noisy and dramatic, like you’re ranting out loud. It’s perfect for moments when:

• something unfair or ridiculous happens again;
• you feel your patience running out;
• you want to say "I’m so done with this" in a playful but clearly angry way.

Because it’s still a cute text face, it usually feels more like cartoon rage or "comedic frustration" than truly hostile anger. You can use it in friendly chats to vent, complain and show that you’re upset but still approachable.

Visual structure

• Arms and pose:

  ヽ

  and

  ノ

  act as raised arms, as if the character is throwing its hands up in protest or frustration.
• Face outline: The parentheses turn

  ˇヘˇ

  into a compact character head.
• Facial details: The two

  ˇ

  marks lean inward, like sharp, frowning brows and squinted eyes. The

  ヘ

  emphasizes the central tension of the face and gives it a stubborn, angry look.

Typical usage

You can use ヽ(ˇヘˇ)ノ when:

• deadlines or plans keep changing and you’re fed up with it;
• someone repeats an annoying behavior you’ve already complained about;
• a game or task goes wrong in a stupid way and you want to scream a little;
• you’re mock-yelling at a friend for teasing you or doing something silly;
• you want a more explosive, emotional version of an angry shrug kaomoji.

Overall, ヽ(ˇヘˇ)ノ is a great choice for expressing grumpy, fiery frustration with raised hands and dramatic energy, while still keeping things fun and expressive in chat.
