another word for amazing thesaurus tsundere
It also can be a bit broader than kun, gender-wise, in referring to any child or pet—specifically because of that cuteness connotation. Chan also carries a vibe of sweetness and innocence. As such, chan can also be a term of endearment, especially for older women. For example, you can use it for a granny-type who’s a total sweetheart. Chan is also a common way for girls or women who are friends to refer to one another. But if a guy in a romance anime starts referring to a girl as chan, that means he thinks she’s cute and is probably developing feelings for her. Basically, my personal rule-of-thumb boils down to kun being boy-ish and for buds, and chan being girl-ish, cute, and playful. Sama Sama is basically the intense version of san. Like san, it’s gender-neutral, but it holds a much higher
degree of deference. As such, it’s often used to reflect social rank and tacked onto people like
kings (“Bossu-sama,” like the king in Ranking of Kings), princesses (“hime-sama” – think Zelda), or god (“kami-sama,” like God Eneru in One Piece). In a true one-sentence summation of the vibe of Japanese customer service, it’s also often used to refer to guests in restaurants, hotels, and other hospitality situations (you’ll now notice “okyakusama” all the freaking time).
