A heavy, oblique sans with rounded, compact forms and a distinctly “bouncy” rhythm. Strokes stay broadly uniform, with softened joins and subtly tapered terminals that keep counters open despite the mass. The uppercase is sturdy and blocky while the lowercase leans more animated, with single-storey a and g, a hooked j, and a simple, sturdy f; numerals are wide and weighty with clear, punchy silhouettes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, merch graphics, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing UI banners. It can work for brief subheads, but its dense color and lively slant are most effective when given room and set large.
The overall tone is upbeat and athletic, with a cartoonish confidence that feels loud, approachable, and fun rather than strict or technical. Its forward slant and dense black shapes create momentum and a sense of impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, energetic voice—combining a chunky weight with rounded, animated shapes to stay legible while feeling fast and informal.
Spacing and letterfit read tight and display-oriented, making words form strong, dark bands at larger sizes. The italics are built-in rather than a mechanical slant, giving curves and diagonals a deliberately dynamic posture.
