Actually - NO!

(*´▽`*) are not gal-moji, they are just the Japanse style  
computer smilies like :) or ;)
in US and Europe. Japan has a different smieiles.
(*´▽`* etc are not girl-moji - these Japanese style smilies are  
in all the keitai software.
If you have a FOMA phone, and you don't switch to English mode, then  
you'll find these
Japanese style smilies in one of the input tables
