When added to Unicode 6.0 in 2010, this emoji was officially named 'Japanese Ogre.' The 'Japanese' was later dropped from the name, though its roots trace back to early 2000s Japanese mobile carrier emoji sets.

To Japanese users this emoji signals a festive occasion, but to those unfamiliar with oni culture it can easily read as anger or a threat.

Como é usado pelo mundo

  • Japan

    Strongly tied to Setsubun bean-throwing and the Namahage New Year ritual from Akita. Japanese users reach for this emoji for cultural events far more than for anger.

  • United States

    Used for rage, going feral, or entering 'demon mode' — acting unhinged or unruly, often late at night. The Japanese cultural background rarely factors in.
