0:00what are these creatures spreading their

0:02popularity around the world and making

0:03everyone crazy they are

0:06chwa CH in today's video we're going to

0:09talk about chiawa things you might have

0:11known and a lot of secret you might have

0:13not if you have never heard of chiawa

0:14it's a manga series created by artist

0:16Nago posted on Twitter and is animated

0:19on 2022 it's cute character and talking

0:21story make it one of the most popular

0:23anime right now so what is so special

0:26about it first let's start talking about

0:28the character design the story of

0:30chikawa has three main character chiawa

0:32USI and Hai he's basically a rat a

0:35rabbit and a cat a lot of people are

0:37arguing about what animal they are and

0:39some are claiming they are unknown

0:40creature but I think this Twitter post

0:42of the author make it very clear also

0:44one thing that's quite interesting is

0:46these are actually not their original

0:48name in the original AR show of chicawa

0:50the author revealed the original name

0:52idea of these three characters which

0:54were n dony and Uka these are the name

0:58of three popular Shopping Center in Pan

1:00and the three store kind of resemble the

1:02personality of three character I'm glad

1:04that she changed her mind though so who

1:06is chiawa and why is she the main

1:08character chwa name derived from

1:11Japanese chesai in Kawaii which means

1:13small and cute she cannot speak and can

1:15only communicate with her sound and

1:17she's quite shy and scared of challenge

1:19but when her friend is in need she'll

1:21try her best to help and she's actually

1:23very lucky she actually won a house in

1:25many food from Lottery one thing we need

1:27to bear in mind is both Nal and ch AWA

1:30official have never confirmed gender of

1:32any character when I say she it's mainly

1:34because chawa appears more like a girl

1:36from me for two reason reason number one

1:38the author is a girl and she titled this

1:40earliest chwa sketch the life I want to

1:43live so that's why I think chwa is more

1:45like a girl and also this is probably

1:47why she's the main character because

1:49she's living in the life the author

1:50wants to live reason number two is CH

1:53loves pink everything she has is pink

1:55her clock her weapon and her pocket are

1:57all cute and pink so for me she's more

2:00like a girl but I think you can feel

2:01free to have your own idea as the gender

2:03neutral setting of this story is quite

2:05nice it doesn't really matter in the

2:07story and no matter if you're a male or

2:08female audience it will be easier for

2:10you to get relate to the character next

2:12is hacha a blue and white cat who lives

2:14in the cave where three of them normally

2:16hang out together Hai can speak and has

2:19very beautiful singing voice who's voice

2:20over by the young talented voice actor

2:23Tanaka Makoto Hai is very friendly quite

2:26good at socializing and always have a

2:28very positive attitude next is usaki the

2:31crazy one who also cannot speak and can

2:33only communicate with his sound when

2:34he's confused he'll say huh when he's

2:37happy he'll say Y and when he's arrived

2:40he will

2:41sayah he is actually voice over by OAA

2:44ADI whose first main character work was

2:45s from gak uzaki is their best friend

2:49but also quite mysterious because none

2:51of them know where do uzaki live but

2:53it's most likely that uzaki is just

2:55living wherever he wants to in the wild

2:57wherever he feel comfortable like under

2:59a leaf or or something usagi is always

3:01on some sort of Adventure and will'll

3:03always find some cool stuff like a staff

3:05that can make things you want appear but

3:06will end up cursing everyone now let's

3:09look at the side character Monga who is

3:11a flying squirrel looks very cute but

3:13it's old an act he's actually very crazy

3:16he is always looking for attention and

3:18compliment he will literally ask people

3:19to look at him and act cute but he's

3:22actually quite cute lot who is a cute

3:24sea order but actually the strongest

3:26warrior in Chicago World whose goal is

3:28to be the strongest he's very friendly

3:30always trying his best to help Chan his

3:33friend contrary to his serious voice and

3:35character he is a sweet food lover he is

3:37always crazy for sweet food like

3:39strawberry ice cream Kur alcoholic

3:42always eating and drinking and eating

3:44and drinking and he so far the only one

3:46that's known to have a alcohol drinking

3:48license in the chwa world yes you need

3:50to have a drinking license to drink

3:51alcohol next is Yolo sound there's a lot

3:54of YOLO sound they're basically just

3:56people in armor we're not sure if the

3:58armor is part of them or they're just

4:00wearing the armor and all of them are

4:02lit by another YOLO which is wearing a

4:04different color armor they seems to be

4:06the people in charge offering job and

4:08evaluating the job and also paying them

4:10salary others are managing stores or

4:13taking care of market and some are also

4:15protecting the residents lastly is shisa

4:17a hardworking lion who's very good at

4:19working and studying and he actually

4:20have a super worker certification which

4:23allows him to work in a Ramen store and

4:25these are the main character inside

4:26character living in a world that is

4:28quite similar to ours although there is

4:30speaking animal mysterious men in armor

4:33and monster and everything they also

4:34have restaurant internet cafe currency

4:37and job and stuff like that and you

4:39really need to work hard to make enough

4:40money to support your life and there's

4:42two main job in the Chicago World which

4:44is weeding and Monster hunting weeding

4:46is to get rid of the harmful weed that

4:48might be poisonous or unnecessary

4:51Monster hunting is to scare away

4:52dangerous monster for Resident safety

4:55you can also pass exam to get

4:56certification for bonus salary and

4:58different permission waiting

4:59certification there's five levels of

5:01certificate of weeding level 1 to five

5:04one is the best five is the lowest with

5:06higher level you can enter area people

5:08without or with lower certificate cannot

5:10enter and you can get bonus salary to

5:13get the certificate you need to pass the

5:14weeding exam which you need knowledge

5:16like how to deal with harmful weed and

5:18how to tell if a weed is poisonous and

5:20stuff which shawa is struggling over and

5:23we know that hach have level five and

5:25usagi have level three next is drinking

5:27certificate in the world of chawa you

5:29need to have a drinking license to drink

5:31no matter what age you are to pass the

5:33drinking certificate exam you need to

5:35have knowledge of certain brands of wine

5:38or what food goes with certain alcohol

5:40and stuff like that which is pretty hard

5:42for many of them next is driving license

5:44for driving which is exact same as our

5:46world lastly it's a super worker

5:48certificate that allows you to work in

5:50the ramen store and possibly other

5:52premises that we don't know yet so yeah

5:54Cho is basically a bunch of cute

5:56creatures living in a world pretty

5:57similar to us with a little bit of imag

5:59ination so why is chawa so popular the

6:04first reason chwa is so successful is

6:06because of its balance between cuteness

6:08and seriousness when anime is just about

6:10cuteness it might be too superficial and

6:13boring to watch and if it's too serious

6:15it might be too dark and too hard to

6:17process especially when life is already

6:19pretty hard chawa used this humorous and

6:22cute way to express serious topic like

6:24poverty friendship and stress from work

6:27for example Hai live in the cold an

6:29empty cave but his positivity and

6:31cuteness really warms it up he decorate

6:34this empty little place with his flower

6:35vase and his favorite ribbon and the

6:37cave become come where Everyone likes to

6:38hang out and have fun although working

6:40is very hard sometime in the cold and

6:42boring sticker Factory doing repetitive

6:44things again and again after finally

6:46saving up some money they can go to

6:48their favorite Ramen store together and

6:49enjoy a nice meal when you see the smile

6:51on their face it really Rings the relief

6:54the combination of stress cuteness and

6:56positivity is like Bitter Sweet medicine

6:59it's healing your heart it give many

7:01people happiness and most importantly

7:03motivation when they see this little

7:05creature thriving while facing so many

7:07challenges and I think that's why chwa

7:10that's mostly popular among people that

7:12is 20 to 40 student and workers because

7:15these are the things that we are facing

7:17every day and we really just need some

7:18of that encouragement reason number two

7:21the ideal friendship the friendship in

7:23chawa is really the most ideal I think

7:25it's due to three reason number one is

7:28their personality really matter match

7:30number two is the gender neutral sitting

7:32number three is there's zero toxicity

7:35chwa haare and wag's personality match

7:38perfectly with each other Hai is Cal and

7:40friendly chikawa is shy but try her best

7:43usagi is crazy but funny three of them

7:45can always cheer each other up and bring

7:47happiness to each other when they go to

7:49Monster hunting they will always try

7:50their best to help each other and when

7:52someone is sad another is always able to

7:54bring happiness the gender neutral

7:56setting is also one of the biggest

7:57reason that makes this friendship

7:59perfect

8:00one is to avoid unnecessary feeling like

8:02jealousy and L which does exist in many

8:05anime even if it's not in the original

8:07cting some audience is just able to ship

8:10whatever character they want to and

8:11create conflict although I did see

8:14people that are searching on Google if

8:16hach and chiawa is dating for these

8:19people I have to remind you that chika's

8:21official birthday is May 1st 2017 their

8:25pure childlike and also very very

8:27positivity friendship is so healing

8:30even though all of them has very

8:31distinctive and strong personality

8:33they're trying their best to balance it

8:35and not to hurt each other with it for

8:37example when chwa filled her weding exam

8:39she is so sad but the next day she

8:41adjust her feeling and congratulate Hai

8:43for passing the exam and at the same

8:45time Hachi who passed the exam is trying

8:48his best not to be too happy in front of

8:49chwa and avoid triggering her they look

8:51so young so cute and innocent but at the

8:54same time they're so emotionally mature

8:56they did not only make this beautiful

8:58friendship they also heal people with

9:00their friendship reason number three

9:03easy to relate to n knows attention to

9:06details in daily life and bring this

9:07element into the anime Mak so many small

9:10moment very relatable for example when

9:12hachad finally save up enough money to

9:14buy his first camera he wanted to take

9:17that transparent layer off but then he

9:19changed his mind and put it back on I'm

9:21sure that many of us has did this before

9:23some other moment that are more unique

9:24to the Japanese audience I only get to

9:26know this after doing research for

9:28example the Ramen store in chwa the

9:31ramen serving chikawa is the reference

9:33of the most memeable Ramen in Japan

9:35churro Ramen chro Ramen is described as

9:38super unique and is everything Japanese

9:41quism is not it's heavy fatty use cheap

9:44ingredients assemble without care and

9:47some people said the service is quite

9:48bad and sometime the shop is quite dirty

9:51it's just super meable many people love

9:53them though but it really brings people

9:56laughter when they see it in chwa next

9:58is the music used in chwa other than the

10:00beautiful original music they also use

10:02some existing music which are quite

10:04unique to the Japanese audience and

10:06bring back a lot of memory for example

10:08say you know that which is a very very

10:10old TV advertising music for instance

10:12brand which started in sha period this

10:15bring back a lot of memories and it's

10:17actually very unexpected for the

10:19audience they never think that they will

10:21hear this music again and it's just so

10:24nostalgic and another one is belief

10:26which is normally s during the Middle

10:28School graduation ceremony in Japan it

10:30actually bring tears to me just because

10:32of the lyrics and I can imagine it must

10:35be quite emotional to many of the

10:36Japanese audience and that's chawa three

10:39cute little thing trying their best to

10:41survive in this cruel world no matter

10:42what's ahead they're so positive it

10:44brings so many warms and happiness and

10:46at the same time it make us want to be

10:48like them as happy as powerful as strong

10:51as positive and I think that's why chawa

10:53is so popular around the world other

10:55than official chawa lore chawa meme is

10:58actually a very crazy and different room
