Prostration Galerie

Prostration, widely known as "orz" or "失意体前屈" (shitsui tai zenkutsu), is a popular internet meme and character pose originating from early Japanese web culture. This theme highlights comedic despair, featuring elements like characters kneeling on all fours, bowed heads touching the ground, gloomy expressions, and dramatic shadow effects. It is frequently used in anime fan art to humorously depict crushing disappointment or humorous failure.
