The "( °٢° )" emote, also known as the "Small Nose Bleed" emote, is a Japanese emoticon typically used to convey embarrassment, shyness, or attraction to someone or something. The symbol resembles a face with a small nosebleed, often accompanied by blushing cheeks or a bashful expression. It has become popular in anime and manga culture and is often used in online conversations or social media posts.
