Kabe-don Theme
Tagged under Restrained, Back to Wall, Japanese Terms, Tropes.
"Kabe-don" (壁ドン, lit. "wall bam") is a Japanese shoujo manga trope where the male character traps the female
character against the wall using one or both arms, usually with a "bam" sound effect that gives the trope its name.
This action is typically followed by a manly line and/or romantic declaration.
The "cicada block"
meme later evolved from this trope. The "cicada block" ("semi-don", 蝉ドン) is similar to kabe-don except one person
uses all four limbs to trap the other.
Note: do not use this tag for characters pinning other characters
down on a bed.
