DemiVeemon is the small In-Training form of Veemon, the Digimon partner of Davis Motomiya in Digimon Adventure 02, the sequel to the original Digimon Adventure that aired in Japan in 2000. With its large ears, round body and cheerful voice, DemiVeemon quickly became a fan favourite for cute moments in the series. Clips of its squeals later circulated on soundboards and in fan edits, where the sound survived on its own as a shorthand for something small, sweet and harmless.
