Nowadays, emojis are often replacing words. Yet computational systems still oversimplify them. Most existing approaches treat emojis as static sentiment indicators and overlook their emotional distributions. In this study, we propose an emoji-aware emotion analysis framework based on a Twitter (X) dataset of 100,000 emoji-containing replies collected between 2020-2025. After preprocessing and text cleaning, we applied text-to-emotion classification to detect five primary emotions (Happy, Angry, Sad, Fear, and Surprise) for each message. By aggregating emotion scores across contexts in which each emoji appears, we estimate emoji-emotion association distributions and construct an emoji-emotion ranking system reflecting relative emotional dominance. Furthermore, we project emojis into the Russell valence-arousal space to enable continuous affective interpretation. Our results demonstrate that emojis exhibit probabilistic, context-sensitive emotional profiles rather than fixed sentiment polarities.
