What is the anime sit called?

The term you're looking for might be "seiza" (正座), which refers to the traditional way of sitting in Japan. In this sitting posture, you kneel on the floor with your legs folded underneath you and your buttocks resting on your heels. It’s a formal way of sitting that is often seen in Japanese culture, and while it’s not specific to anime, it’s frequently depicted in many anime scenes, especially in more traditional or formal settings.

Seiza (正座):

• How to do it:
  1. Kneel down on the floor with your legs folded underneath you.
  2. Sit with your feet flat underneath your thighs, with your knees bent and together.
  3. Keep your back straight and your hands placed on your thighs.
  4. This posture can be quite uncomfortable if held for too long, especially for beginners, but it is an important part of Japanese etiquette.

In anime, seiza is often depicted in scenes where characters are in formal settings, like tea ceremonies, meetings, or other respectful situations. It represents politeness, respect, and a connection to traditional Japanese culture.
