If you are referring to the v-sign the Japanese tend to make when taking photos, I don't think they mean "peace" like in the 60s photos you see....

V sign - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I doubt most Japanese know of the peace movement in the 60s and associate the v-sign to that. It's like "say cheese!" in the states.... it's something they do....
