どじっ子

So, don’t be too afraid of making mistakes in doing anything—dance, sing, drawing, etc.
People may find your mistakes charming. You can turn your shortcomings to your strongpoints.
 
In Japanese entertainment, there is a key word どじっ子 or どじっ娘  (dojikko).
What is it?
If you watch anime, you’ll often find some characters who fail, fumble in anything they do.
They are often depicted as lovable characters.
If you are an elitist, perfect character, less people will love you.
If you are a dojikko, people can easily relate to.
That’s why dojikkos thrive in anime. You can find the elements in Geinoukai.
There is even a word “dojikko moe”. People easily find moe in Dojikko, rather than stuck-up elite characters.
