Definition
明快 describes something clear, lively, and uncomplicated — often used for a person's cheerful and straightforward personality, for a crisp writing style, or for bright colors (this last sense is more dialectal). It combines a sense of 'brightness' (明) with 'swiftness/agility' (快), so it carries a positive, refreshing tone.
