V-Sign	comment	Sometimes, a character, feeling victorious and all, just feels like yelling "VICTORY!", or busting a few moves. But for one reason or another, they want a less ostentatious method to celebrate. In that case, they stick their middle and index fingers upwards, as if forming the letter "V". Sometimes, they'll do it with some exclamation, but not necessarily. In Japan, the V sign can also signify that the person making it is being photographed. This pops up in anime quite a bit, sometimes accompanied by the character saying "V". May have been popularized as a result of the occupation after WWII. In the United Kingdom and Commonwealth countries, when done with the palm facing inward, it is an offensive gesture — slightly less offensive than Flipping the Bird in the United States — sometimes known as "throwing the deuces" or "[flipping/flicking] [off] Vs". During World War II, Winston Churchill popularised its use as a "Victory" sign (for V as in victory) initially with palm inwards and later in the war (once informed that inward was offensive) palm outwards. The palm-facing-outward version of the sign has also been used to mean "peace", especially by the 1960s/1970s counter-culture. Contrary to popular belief, the "palm-inwards" version has nothing to do with medieval English and Welsh archers showing defiance. Maybe. Nobody really knows for sure, but it'd be cool if it was true. A form of Crazy Cultural Comparison. Compare Victory Pose and Happy Dance, where someone wants to be a bit more showy with their celebration. For the single-finger version, see Flipping the Bird. Not to be confused with a certain OTHER two-fingered gesture, though the two look the same.

V-Sign / int_8258e260	comment	Super Mario Bros.: Every time Mario gets a star in Super Mario 64, or completes a level in Super Mario World. It was also added into the Super Mario All-Stars versions of Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels whenever Mario completes a level or goes down pipes. Heck, the V-Sign is one of Mario's trademarks - Although Shigeru Miyamoto excised it from the series in the GameCube era to make Mario tougher. Mario has since stopped flashing the V sign but curiously, his brother Luigi has continued giving the gesture in later games. For example, whenever he gets a key in Luigi's Mansion or as one of his taunts in Super Smash Bros. Brawl◊ and onwards.◊ After nearly two decades of disuse, the V-Sign is brought back in Super Mario Odyssey as a reference to Super Mario 64, where it's one of 3 possible hand gestures Mario does when he collects a Power Moon. Super Mario RPG: Mario, Mallow, and Toadstool get one of these as their victory pose after a battle (Bowser clenches his fists in the English version or does a Bicep-Polishing Gesture in the Japanese version, while Geno crosses his arms and nods). The PETA parody Super Tanooki Skin 2D has the titular Tanooki doing this in the ending for an ironic effect. Wario typically has his own versions; he holds up two Vs, overlapping them to make "W", or (as in the Super Smash Bros. series) he holds up three fingers, again, to represent "W".

Heck, the V-Sign is one of Mario's trademarks - Although Shigeru Miyamoto excised it from the series in the GameCube era to make Mario tougher. Mario has since stopped flashing the V sign but curiously, his brother Luigi has continued giving the gesture in later games. For example, whenever he gets a key in Luigi's Mansion or as one of his taunts in Super Smash Bros. Brawl◊ and onwards.◊

V-Sign / int_b8e7bb8	comment	Super Sentai: Rescue Sentai GoGoFive had a V logo in a lot of places. Of course, it's hard to know if V means victory or roman numeral 5 (possibly both... in which case the name means Five Five Five. Which is Japan's 911, befitting the Rescue theme and making it possibly the most multi-layered sentai name pun ever.) In Mahou Sentai Magiranger/Power Rangers Mystic Force, the Pink Ranger's V-sign becomes a plot point (showing the others that she's only pretending to still be brainwashed. In the sentai version she continues to flash the sign every so often, while her power rangers counterpart drops it.) Perhaps due to the prevalence of the Five-Man Band, the V sign shows up in many series of both versions.

V-Sign / int_f7f584bc	comment	Rescue Sentai GoGoFive had a V logo in a lot of places. Of course, it's hard to know if V means victory or roman numeral 5 (possibly both... in which case the name means Five Five Five. Which is Japan's 911, befitting the Rescue theme and making it possibly the most multi-layered sentai name pun ever.)

As her character is partially inspired by the 1968 volley manga Our Sign Is V, she's likely to use it in the "Victory" sense. As Sailor V's number one fan, Usagi as Sailor Moon uses it too, often holding her hand horizontally across her face and looking through the V with her eye.
