I Won’t Wear Cat Ears

Text on the meme

子ども Child 若い女性 Young Woman 大人の女性 Adult Woman おばあさん Grandmother “No I won’t wear cat ears and meow for you”

What it means

A crying woman in traditional Japanese clothing sits behind a traditional instrument while an arrow moves through stages from child to grandmother. The caption says she refuses to wear cat ears and meow, but her increasingly anguished wailing makes the refusal hilariously unconvincing. It works as a reaction to reluctantly agreeing to something embarrassing or cutesy.
