Chibi styles in western media
Chibis come from Japan, meaning “tiny“ or “little“. Heads are bigger than the body (sometimes the entire head can fit into the rest of the body). Everyone basically looks like a baby or a child.

You Wish #2 Wishborn – Graphic Novel Review

Love Languages – Graphic Novel Review
The way they both started to learn the other’s native tongue, through pantomime and hand gestures, the way Ping explained some letters and James visually illustrated it … Beautiful.
Espada – Graphic Novel Review
A hidden gem. Didn’t expect the inside to be in the same beautiful colorful art as the cover! Surely is a very unique artstyle and quite mesmerizing to look at. The color palette as well as the designs are just hypnotic and fit the vibe of the world so well! Even though it plays around…
