No, not all characters under the "Labubu" name are female — but the iconic figure of Labubu herself, along with most of her kind, is officially portrayed as female. Here’s a detailed and clear breakdown to help you understand the gender distinctions within this beloved fantasy world.

According to the original creator, Kasing Lung, and further clarified by Pop Mart, Labubu is described as a female forest elf. She is known for her mischievous personality, pointed ears, bright eyes, and signature grin — and notably, she does not have a tail. This portrayal is consistent across backstories, product descriptions, and promotional materials.
Many similar characters in the same universe — such as Mokoko, Tycoco, Pippo, and Macaron — are also considered female. They are often grouped together as “Labubu's tribe” and share the same tailless trait.
In contrast, Zimomo — another central character from “The Monsters” world — is explicitly defined as male. Visual differences help distinguish him: he has a tail and often takes on a leadership role within the group. This clear gender divide is widely recognized by the brand and collecting community.

While official sources assign traditional gender traits, many fans appreciate the playful and somewhat androgynous design of these characters. In global fan communities — especially on platforms like Reddit, Instagram, and Weibo — some enjoy viewing Labubu through a more fluid or non-binary lens. This inclusive interpretation aligns with modern discussions around identity and representation, making Labubu an endearing figure across diverse audiences.
One fan shared:
“I see Labubu as beyond gender — they’re pure mischief and joy!”
