How to read Generation ZZZ: Generation Triple Z
Coincides with: mid to late Gen COVID (Japan) / (Gen Zalpha / late Gen Z depending on one's definition) (Pew/USA) / Heisei Kouhan (translation: Last half of Heisei era 1989-2004/5 = early, 2005/6-2019 being late) (Japan) / 1st wave Homelanders (4th turning) (Strauss-Howe/USA) 2006-2014 = first wave, 2015-2021/22 = second wave, 2022/2023 = third wave.
Kids who knew pre-COVID years, but don't know much about the time before iPhones/iPads. These are the K-8 kids at the beginning of the COVID pandemic and graduate high school sometime between the mid-20s and early-30s (c. 2005/6-2014/5). Incidentally, in the Strauss-Howe generational theory, this will be the first wave of Homelanders (4th turning) 2015-2021/22 being 2nd wave, 2022/23-29 being 3rd wave. These kids grew up with the iPad, OG Fortnite kids.
This is after the Yutori (1988?-1994/5?), Satori Generation (1996/7?-2004/2005) in Japan. This is also after the early gen COVID (Japan): 2001-2004/5.
The term was coined by Japanese high school students in various 2022/2023 surveys, claiming that they defined their generation as Gen COVID as the main indicator, and Generation Z+/ZZZ as a second choice. The reasoning behind the name of Generation Z+ / ZZZ (2005/2006-2014) differing from the earlier years of Gen Z (1997-2004/2005).
Note: Generation Z+ and Generation ZZZ can be interchanged.

The generation of those who grew up eating nothing but cheap ramen noodles as children because their parents did not care what they ate. As adults they believe tax payers should continue to provide them with the MSG-laden sustenance that they require for survival. Can be found at Anti-Trump rallies holding up their empty ramen bowls, whining.
Person 1: Hey why are all those Trump protesters holding up ramen bowls?
Person 2: They are the ramen bowl generation. That's why.
Person 2: They are the ramen bowl generation. That's why.
