 Re: Chapter Kun bryce_r wrote: JoeMan wrote: Alright dumb question. I see all types of toys called something Kun. What exactly is a Kun I tried looking it up on Wikipedia and saw it is used for various titles, but that doesn't really make sense, I'm thinking it has to be an animal or along those lines. Joe-kun- It's a term of endearment. Usually little kids or animals have that or chan at the end of their names. A lot of people and/or even toy companies use it. Like the pharmaceutical company logo sato-chan.  If I remember my Japanese lessons, "-kun" is typically used for males, while "-chan" is for little kids or females. Hence, Sato-chan (little kid animal) versus Skull-kun (male (?) monster).
