what does “komanechi” mean?
What does the term "komanechi" mean? I noticed that this word is often accompanied by a specific body gesture in which a person forms a "V" shape with their hands, raising them from their thighs. Can anyone explain the significance of this gesture? I saw it in the live-action adaptation of "Honey and Clover."

That move was created by the comedian, actor and director Takeshi "Beat" Kitano as part of his comedy act. I believe that it is a reference to Romanian gymnastics superstar Nadia Comaneci.
Mr. Kitano is known for that move (as well as numerous other things) in Japan.
The word is also used in the Kitano "Beat" Takeshi-hosted Fuji TV variety show "Takeshi no Comaneci Dauigaku Suugakuka" (Comaneci University Mathematics). It has been nominated for an International Emmy award.
For those unfamiliar with this I am linking below. The video is not of Beat Takeshi...
Ohh... I received my first downward thumb before I could even finish my answer. Amazing! Anyway, here is another guy I am sure you will love doing 100 komanechi's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFNbtvdn-Ck&feature...;

What a exclusive query. Religion is, of path, the type that one's worship takes. Thus there are enormous quantities of types. Religion involves a procedure of devout ideals and practices. The item of the faith is also fake gods or the actual God. Hence, there may be fake faith and there may be real. Religion can get very fancy or stay functional. In the previous case, similar to it's in these days. In the latter case, such because it used to be within the Garden of Eden. What then is worship to me? How do I worship? To worship manner to obey. And to obey manner to worship. The 2 are in detail hooked up; certainly, they're coterminous and can not be separated. Specifically, to obey the Sovereign Lord God Jehovah of Armies is to worship Him. I do my imperfect exceptional on this regard. I fall on my face and get again up to check out and check out once more. In the Garden of Eden, as long as they obeyed Jehovah, Adam and Eve have been worshiping him. No temple, no Mosaic Law, no conferences. Simply depart the tree of the competencies of well and dangerous by myself. Simple. The minute they disobeyed, they stopped worshiping Jehovah. Same with the country of Israel. The minute they tried to train a syncretistic faith they stopped worshiping Jehovah. The minute they made the golden calf, they stopped. And on and on. To worship is to obey. To obey is to worship. Hannah J Paul
