Are Zimomos Boys?

Zimomo is male—but his role as the only male leader of an all-female tribe has sparked debate among fans.

In the whimsical world of The Monsters, created by Hong Kong-based artist Kasing Lung, Zimomo stands out as the sole male character ruling over hundreds of female Labubu elves. While his gender is officially confirmed, the implications of this dynamic have led to discussions about gender representation in fantasy storytelling.
