No really... WTF is wrong with Japan?

I know of it from Naruto.

Interesting:

This prank is not exclusive to Japan. In South Korea, it is known as 똥침 which may be romanized as ttong chim, dong chim or ddong chim. The term may be roughly translated to "poop needle".[citation needed]

In Taiwan, the practice is called "童子拜觀音".[5]

In Vietnam, it is called "Thông đít", roughly means "to penetrate your anus". A page referencing to the act was created by a student in Foreign Languages Specializing School. [6]

In certain countries such as the United Kingdom, the act of kancho may be illegal,[citation needed] being considered sexual harassment, or even sexual assault. While the practice is known in South Korea, there have been cases where adults performing it have been arrested. However, in Japan it is considered a childish prank rather than a criminal act.

In Scotland, the practice is commonly known by it's colloquial term 'Jobby Jabber'.

It's not going to pop up any pictures that are too nasty but it is pretty strange/gross. I had a friend that was a teacher in Japan and had kids try and do it to him. The kids try to jab their hand in between the victim's butt cheeks.
 
I lol'd at work.

I remember last year I heard about this and a buddy of mine and I watched youtube videos of it while drunk. Was epic.

Haha, that guy is hilarious 😀

You know, before we come to Japan, they tell us a lot of ultimately useless stuff. What kind of computer to bring, if our DVD's will work, clothing sizes, that kind of nonsense. Nowhere, and I mean nowhere, in the 3-4 months of orientations did anyone ever mention that at some point, a Japanese kid may try to stick their fingers up our butt. That's something I would have liked to know, personally.

It's called Kancho, and just about any kid can be a Kancho Assassin. Even the sweetest little girl may be prone to jam her fingers up your ass the second you turn around. This happened to one of my friends, which just goes to show - don't trust anyone. I'd say the little girls are the most dangerous cause they have natural ways of lowering your defenses.
I was pretty lucky.

Before I came, I bought a really big, really baggy pair of pants. The kids try to Kancho...but they just have no idea where my ass is! It's beautiful! I had one kid try and find his fingers hit nothing but jean fabric and air. Yes! But I've actually gotten pretty good at dodging it, much like Spider-man I have developed a Kancho Sense that tells me where and when it's coming before it comes. I parry fingers like a pro. My record is still 100% Kancho Free. Ha! America 2, Japan 0.
All in a day's work I suppose.

Kancho (カンチョー kanchō?)[1] is a prank often played in Japan; it is performed by clasping the hands together so the index fingers are pointing out and attempting to insert them sharply into someone's anal region when the victim is not looking.[2][3] It is similar to the wedgie or a goosing, although, as compared to kancho, the former mentioned acts do not involve physical contact which is quite as intimate or direct. A Kancho is often executed simultaneously as the offending party loudly emphasizes the second syllable of "Kan-CHO!".
 
So in other words, you should REALLY wash your hands after shaking the hand of a Japanese, especially if it looks like a joker/prank type person. :sneaky:

Maybe that's why they prefer bowing instead of shaking hands.


And of course bowing opens up some opportunities for passersby...
 
Y'see, kancho is mostly an elementary school thing. I'm grateful to say, kids grow out of the "Hey! Wouldn't it be fun to stick my fingers up someone's butt?" phase somewhere around 12-13 years old. So it's rare to get any kancho attempts from the ninensei or sannensei. The ichinensei on the other hand...while they're not particularly prone to it, they might bust it out for special occasions (like "welcoming" the new foreign teacher). April is particularly dangerous, because that's when the ichinensei enter jr. high school straight from elementary school. New school, new asses, it's like unlocking hidden levels in Ass Raider or something.
I hadn't had any attempts since last April. The ichinensei had just entered jr. high, and one day one boy tempted fate against me. Thanks to my trusty Kancho Sense™ I avoided getting my oil checked, but I realized that if I didn't head this shit off at the pass, I'd have to be parrying them for at least the next few months. So I turned around and chased the boy down. He was surprised, he probably didn't think I could move that fast. I caught him...I restrained him with my left hand, dropped to one knee, put my right hand back as far as I could, said "One thousand years of pain!!" in the over-blown anime style and everything, and prepared to kancho him straight to Hell. The boy was freaked out. I think tears were even streaming down his face. I don't blame him. In retrospect, I can't even imagine - you're a 12 year old Japanese boy being forcibly restrained by a large black man who is bound and determined to penetrate your ass. I would have been crying too.
