<p>It is Japanese Kanji, in China, it means the upcoming will be exciting/ shocking/ amazing/.</p>

<p>Another words is 高能预警: warn for upcoming.</p>

<p>When you watch an online video, you may see 弹幕 like this:</p>

<p>The phrase is currently mainly used for warning that "something" special/shocking is about to happen.</p>

<p>前方: literally "ahead", here meaning "soon".</p>

<p>高能: literally "high energy", here meaning "great impact" and further into "something shocking", it could be either positive or negative.</p>

<p>Being put together makes it sounds more like "Warning: We are about to take great impact, please tighten your seat belts".</p>

<p>So the phrase is often used as a notification when you want yourself prepared for what's about to happen.</p>

<p>Note that the phrase "高能" is also used seperatly for "shocking"(as adjective).</p>

<p>I think 能 might be misspelled, it might have been 熊, otherwise it doesn't make sense. But still "There is a tall bear ahead" is not good enough to get across, what does it really mean?</p>

The phrase is currently mainly used for warning that "something" special/shocking is about to happen.

前方: literally "ahead", here meaning "soon".

高能: literally "high energy", here meaning "great impact" and further into "something shocking", it could be either positive or negative.

Being put together makes it sounds more like "Warning: We are about to take great impact, please tighten your seat belts".

So the phrase is often used as a notification when you want yourself prepared for what's about to happen.

Note that the phrase "高能" is also used seperatly for "shocking"(as adjective).
