Text faces mid-move, swinging their arms, shuffling side to side or dancing to a few music notes. Tap one to copy the whole move.
A dancing kaomoji shows movement with the arms. Box-drawing corners like ┏ ┛ and ┗ ┓ put one arm up and one down, so writing ┏(・o・)┛ and then ┗(・o・)┓ looks like a dancer switching sides. Tildes ~ trail behind a face that is wiggling, and ♪ ♫ notes say there is a song playing. Some longer lines are a short dance routine in one string. People use them to celebrate good news, react to a song drop, or hype up a party chat. For faces singing or playing instruments rather than dancing, see the music kaomoji page linked below.
The box-drawing corners ┏ ┛ ┗ ┓ are the arms, bent at the elbow. Pair two that mirror each other to show the switch.
Tildes show a body swaying. The ~ on one side means the dancer is leaning that way.
Notes around the face put a song behind the move. ♪ is a single note and ♫ is a pair of beamed notes.
Bigger, louder moves for a win, a birthday or the weekend. ヾ and ノ are hands thrown in the air.
Send two mirrored faces one after the other, such as ┏(・o・)┛ then ┗(・o・)┓. The arms swap sides, which reads as a dance move. Adding ♪ before or after the face tells people there is music.
They are box-drawing characters, made for drawing tables and frames in plain text. In a kaomoji the corner shape looks like an arm bent at the elbow, one raised and one lowered.
The 💃 and 🕺 emoji are pictures drawn by each platform's emoji font, so they look different on each phone. A dancing kaomoji is built from ordinary text characters and keeps the same shape wherever the font has those characters.
The UltraTextGen kaomoji generator filters the parts by mood, then lets you swap the outline, eyes and mouth and add cheeks or arms, keeping the left and right sides matched. Every part is plain Unicode text, so the face pastes wherever you are typing.
