陽キャ
含义: Outgoing, popular extrovert — someone with a bright, sociable personality who thrives in social situations.
陽キャ is short for 陽キャラ (yō kyara), combining 陽 (yō, bright/sunny/positive) with キャラ (kyara, character). It describes the socially confident, popular type — the person who leads group conversations, has many friends, and is comfortable in any social setting. It sits in contrast to 陰キャ (in kya, the introverted type). While originally neutral, it is sometimes used self-deprecatingly by 陰キャ types who admire the 陽キャ lifestyle.
