　■I wonder if there is any other place than Heyuri in the western web 
　│where people frequently use Japanese kaomoji (*'ｰ')
　│
　└■it's possible, especially nowadays
　　│Windows has a built in list accessible via Win+. (Win+period).
　　│They used to be hard to type (and way outside the standard low-ASCII 
　　│range used on the English speaking web, but it's much easier to use them 
　　│now, and everything is UTF-8.
　　│I remember when the closest you'd see was like (^_^;) or something lol 
　　│because of those limitations
　　│
　　└■A lot of kaomoji in Win+. look too "cutesy" for Heyuri. Maybe a JK could
　　　│use them in her internet blog at most (;^Д^)
　　　│
　　　├■Yeah... `(*>﹏<*)′
　　　│　
　　　│　they render surprisingly well in this font (✿◡‿◡)
　　　│　
　　　└■I've heard that you can tell the difference between a JK and an ojisan 
　　　　│pretending to be a JK by their choice of kaomoji, as some are considered 
　　　　│old-fashioned (;ﾟ∇ﾟ)
　　　　│
　　　　└■It's true! I think I made a thread about that on Heyuri before too
