壁ドン (Kabe-don)

noun:  Kabe-don is a romantic situation popularized by shojo manga (Japanese comics aimed at teenaged girls) in which one person pins another person against the wall in a show of sexual dominance. "Kabe" means "wall" and "don" is the onomatopoeia for the thud sound of hitting a wall.



I first heard of the term in this video clip of all places!

I've always understood it as meaning something closer to what the first picture shows, with hand on the wall next to the person of interest, rather than physically pinning them. Huh.
