Chibi is a style of drawing that features characters with exaggeratedly cute and small proportions. Typically, chibi characters have oversized heads, large eyes, and tiny bodies, which enhance their adorable appearance. This art form is popular in anime and manga, often used to depict characters in a more playful or humorous way. The term "chibi" originates from the Japanese word for "small" or "short." Chibi characters are often used in fan art, merchandise, and various forms of media to evoke a sense of charm and endearment. Their simplistic design makes them appealing to a wide audience, especially among younger fans.
