Mori Chack is a Character Artist from Osaka, Japan.

In the year 2000, after working as a manga artist and commercial illustrator, CHACK created the CHACK-X or “CHAX” brand, which cleverly played with the world’s problems, contradictions, and other issues – imbuing them with his unique sense of humor and cute characters.

The characters in the CHAX universe initially gained popularity and media attention organically through MORI CHACK’s “street vending,” selling postcards on the streets of Osaka.

The characters he has designed have gone on to become figures, high-fashion apparel collections, animated series, stuffed plush toys, and more. Gloomy Bear, especially has gained strong popularity both in Japan and worldwide.
