Most people who are interested in Japan know the word "chibi". For those who don't, I'll say that it means small or child-like, but "cute" is generally also a part of that. In Japan, there seems to be literally nothing that can't be "chibi-fied" or turned into a small, cute thing and many pop culture icons are examples
