Gun, Bear, Karate

n. Similar to the game of "Rock, Paper, Scissors" (or rochambeau), whereas two to three players all simultaneously pick an action to play against their opponents.

The game begins with all players being back-to-back to avoid any cheating. Upon counting down "One, Two, Three, SHOOT" (where shoot is the action word), all players spin and face each other while demonstrating either Gun, Bear, or Karate.

The winner is chosen as follows:
*Gun beats Bear
*Bear beats Karate
*Karate beats Gun

Actions are described as follows:
*Gun is holding out one's arms, with each hand making "guns" that are pointed at the other player(s)
*Bear is holding one's arms in the air in a menacing fashion
*Karate is when one raises both arms and one leg up into their air in a kicking motion

Gunbear

A word made to represent the Japanese word "ganbare" which in English translates to "do your best" or "you can do it." It is a way to cheer someone on.

It was created and popularized by the Nijisanji En vtuber Luca Kaneshiro and his fans after tts, text to speech, pronounced ganbare as gunbear on his jump king stream.

Gunbear is often represented by using 🔫🐻 emojis together.

For reference see Luca Kaneshiro's stream:
