What's Up With All The Kobeni X Pomni Fan Art Online? The 'Amazing Digital Circus' And 'Chainsaw Man' Crossover Explained

The Amazing Digital Circus gathered a strong following online within just weeks of dropping their first YouTube episode. The show's fame can be partly attributed to the fandom dedicated to its protagonist, a nervous jester named Pomni. But fans of the show couldn't help but notice the stark similarities between Pomni's jumpy personality and that of another internet favorite; Kobeni from the Chainsaw Man anime and manga.

Here's a recap of both characters and why people love drawing Kobeni and Pomni interacting with each other.

Who Are Kobeni And Pomni?

Kobeni is a recurring character in the manga and anime series Chainsaw Man. She's known for her quiet personality and is often drawn to appear sweaty, worried, and stressed out. The mystery surrounding Kobeni's abilities in the manga intrigued fans, who often compared her and Power as possible Best Girls in the cast.

Pomni is the main protagonist of the animated YouTube show The Amazing Digital Circus, where she is the only human to be trapped in a circus-themed digital prison alongside a cast of other characters. She's shown dressed in a jester suit and is often left at the mercy of the digital circus's mysterious and malevolent showrunner, who can be seen sticking her on a board and throwing knives at her in the clip below.

When Did People Start Drawing Kobeni X Pomni Fan Art?

X user @2kellevision is one of the first people to post fanart featuring the two nervous characters, a cross-over trend that continued well into 2023.
