A character with arms thrown up running toward a bear. The left figure is ＼ and ／ full-width slashes for arms raised in the air, a ✿ flower decoration, ºั wide blushing eyes, and ᗜ a happy open mouth. The bear on the right uses U and U as raised paws (clearly visible cuddle stance), // // blush marks on the cheeks, and the ᴥ classic snout shape.
The story is a chase scene — someone running, arms in the air, toward a bear that is also raising its paws to embrace. Both characters are clearly happy to see each other. It is one of the most active kaomoji in the bear family.
Use it for big greeting moments — reuniting with a friend, finding something you have been looking for, meeting a beloved creator at an event. On Discord, it works as a ‘finally!’ reaction. On TikTok and Instagram captions it fits videos of reunions, of arriving at a long-awaited destination, of meeting a pet after time away.
In Japanese the matching feeling is とびつく (tobitsuku — to jump at, to leap toward in joy). Pair with かえってきた！ (‘kaette kita!’ — ‘they’re back!’), あいたかった (‘aitakatta’ — ‘I missed you’), or ようやく (‘youyaku’ — ‘finally’).
