Get the sammichmug. Shortened form of "Ohayou gozaimasu," the Japanese salutation equivalent to "Good morning." It is a cute way of saying hello.
"Oha" was made popular by a Japanese celebrity, Shingo Katori, on the TV show "Saturday SMAP." He uses it as his catchphrase, and used it in his song "Shingo Mama no Oha Rock."
A hand gesture usually accompanies an "Oha!" greeting. On the first syllable "oh", hold up your hands, palms out, with your index fingers touching your thumbs (like the American "O.K." gesture). On the second syllable "ha," straighten out your index fingers and thumbs, and push your hands forward.

Oha! How are you doing this morning?

Get the ohamug. "Anime" is a derivative form of "animation," coined in Japan to refer to all kinds of animation, both domestic and foreign. The word has a more specific meaning in Europe and North America, specifying Japanese animation. American fans of anime usually make a clear distinction between cartoons, such as Looney Tunes and Disney, and anime, which has certain different characteristics.
Anime, as defined in North America, has a distinct art style, often featuring large eyes, small noses, and bright colors. Animation from Japan is geared towards a Japanese audience, which has looser censorship standards, allowing nudity, violence, and mature themes in programming for children and teens; this is perfectly acceptable in Japan. Only a relatively small percentage of anime is pornographic (see hentai).
Unlike Disney animated movies and Saturday morning cartoons in America, Japanese anime is not always made for and marketed to children. Some anime have complex storylines and characters, exploring mature themes. Every genre is represented in anime, from drama to comedy to romance, fantasy to horror.
"Japanimation" is a synonym for anime, but is not used as much.
See also manga and otaku.

Get the fwooshmug. A word coined by fans of the Dynasty Warriors video games with two usages. Derived from Lu Bu, a character in these video games.
"Lu Bu'd" is sometimes used as an adjective by fans to describe a character whose attack power has been substantially increased, making him or her as powerful as Lu Bu and as difficult to defeat.
"Lu Bu'd" can also mean the act of being defeated by Lu Bu, or a Lu Bu'd character. With this usage, it means the same thing as owned.
