renzhe Posted July 17, 2008 at 10:08 AM Report Posted July 17, 2008 at 10:08 AM It's Japanese. It says "頑張" + some kana. I don't know the meaning, the first character means "mischievous; obstinate; to play; stupid; stubborn; naughty", the second one is a measure word, and I can't read the kana. Quote
