What does the red icon mean?
Had a quick question, I don't speak Japanese or even write it. But the icon that alerts you of a attack, what does it say?

Its an perilious attack - the game explains them to you when you first encounter them. There are 3 types of them you have to distinguish by looking at the stance of the enemy (or either experience or often common sense) and react to it.
If it is a sweeplike attack you jump (and do a double jump on his head to increase his posture).
If it is a thrust you mimikri counter (buy that skill!) with dodging into him.
If it is a grab you dodge it last second or run away, as most grabs are announced pretty early.

I mean what does it translate into. I know its a perilious attack, I was just wondering what the japanese word was for it!

It means 'Danger'.

It means "fierce hugs incoming"

basically it says "YOUR MUM" and if you can react to it quick enough then you've done well, if not then you've just been mugged off by some digital nip. good luck getting over that.

i've been your mummed too many times this playthrough and i'm getting quite sad.

No it doesn't and it isn't. The symbol that shows up when you die is "死" which does mean "death". It's not the same symbol that shows up when a perilous attack happens,
