― Chibi Biollante revealing why she doesn't sell drinks (Chibi Godzilla Raids Again episode 29, "Madam Bio's New Menu")

Chibi Biollante (ちびビオランテ,   Chibi Biorante) is a monster who appears in the 2023 anime series Chibi Godzilla Raids Again.

Name

Chibi Biollante's name simply comes from placing chibi (ちび), a Japanese word meaning "little," before "Biollante." The other monsters refer to her by the nickname Madam Bio (ビオ姉さん,   Bionēsan).

Design

Chibi Biollante has a legless light green body with a large rounded base, from which four mouthed tendrils extend. She has a rose blossom in the center of her body, triangular plates running from the top of her head down her back, and a face with two eyes with visible eyelashes, two nostrils, and a mouth.

Personality

Chibi Biollante is the sisterly proprietress of a snack bar.[1] She happily offers advice to her troubled customers, though said advice can range from perplexingly allegorical to literal, and it can be difficult to discern between the two.

History

Chibi Godzilla Raids Again

"The Bewitching Rose, Chibi Biollante"

Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Mechagodzilla, and Chibi Mothra visited Chibi Biollante's bar on Monster Island, where Chibi Mechagodzilla was shocked to discover that the bar only served dried snacks and no drinks when Chibi Biollante recommended rice crackers. Chibi Mechagodzilla confided in Chibi Biollante that he was overwhelmed by the chibi monsters' eccentricities, to which she suggested resting his mind to alleviate the stress. Chibi Mothra also spoke to Chibi Biollante about her problems, explaining that she had a crush on another monster. While Chibi Biollante's cryptic response of "dipping soup for the mind" confused Chibi Mechagodzilla, Chibi Mothra understood that it was a complex allegory and provided a very specific yet accurate interpretation of the statement, leaving Chibi Mechagodzilla bewildered. Chibi Mothra also mentioned that her skin becomes dry when stressed, to which Chibi Biollante recommended hyaluronic acid. Chibi Mothra initially assumed this to be another complicated metaphor, only for Chibi Biollante to reveal that she was being literal this time. Chibi Mechagodzilla lamented that he didn't understand what was happening anymore, only to be further incensed by Chibi Biollante's recommendation that he needed to hydrate despite the fact that the bar served no drinks.

"An All-Chibi Monster Chorus"

Chibi Biollante and the others partake in karaoke

Chibi Mechagodzilla joined several others on another trip to Chibi Biollante's bar, where the robot once more expressed his disappointment in the establishment's lack of refreshments until Chibi Biollante revealed that they also offered karaoke, which piqued his interest. After the Shobijin took their turn at singing "Mothra's Song", Chibi Biollante revealed the karaoke machine's scoring system, which awarded the Shobijin an average score and suggested that they needed to work on their synchronization. Following several renditions of songs that Chibi Biollante found to be "moving", the plant monster recommended that they all sing a song together, with Chibi Godzilla selecting "Godzilla's Theme". Because the song had no lyrics, the group could only hum along, much to Chibi Mechagodzilla's annoyance. However, the group ultimately earned a perfect score on the karaoke machine's scoring system.

"Madam Bio's New Menu"

Chibi Godzilla and his sister Chibi Minilla arrived at Chibi Biollante's bar and realized she didn't recognise Chibi Minilla so Chibi Minilla introduced herself. Chibi Biollante pointed out that Chibi Minilla was a child and that Chibi Biollante's restaurant was a bar, albeit one that didn't serve alcohol or drinks of any kind, though she then realized that most of her customers were children anyway so it didn't matter. Chibi Biollante revealed that she was stressed about rising inflation leading to fewer customers but initially ignored Chibi Minilla's suggestion of improving the menu on the basis she was a child. When she actually heard Chibi Minilla's idea of adding more menu items, she quickly changed her tune and accepted the idea but then rejected the following idea of adding drinks to the menu despite hearing that the nearby vending machine selling drinks was profitable. Chibi Godzilla then suggested selling a soy powder biscuit snack, which Chibi Biollante accepted since it would be very dry, confusing Chibi Minilla.

Chibi Biollante made the snacks and the three waited for the first customer, who turned out to be Chibi Titano. Chibi Biollante served the snacks to him and Chibi Titano initially sounded like he was complaining until he referred to it as "AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS", which Chibi Biollante called a close call. Chibi Godzilla proclaimed it their hot new item and Chibi Biollante began to monologue about something she found more valuable about money - Chibi Minilla initially thought she meant the smiles of her customers until she revealed that she was talking about her customers being dehydrated instead as Chibi Titano began to feel dehyrated, confusing Chibi Minilla yet again.

"Fortune-Telling"

Chibi Biollante gave Chibi Mothra a fortune-telling session in which she predicted Chibi Mothra would experience the greatest fortune of her life that year. Chibi Mothra reacted with excitement though Chibi Biollante explained that this meant that Chibi Mothra would find the wireless earbud she thought she'd lost. Chibi Mothra still reacted with excitement but Chibi Mechagodzilla, who had just arrived with Chibi Godzilla, argued it wasn't exciting. After Chibi Godzilla realized fortune-telling was a new part of her restaurant, Chibi Biollante confirmed this and also explained she had collected a variety of items from the curb to sell as part of a second-hand store. Chibi Biollante further explained that all this was necessary to cover construction costs as the restaurant was falling apart. Chibi Mechagodzilla started to say he didn't realize Chibi Biollante was a fortune-teller but she suddenly interrupted him to show him the Sun card, this sudden tarot card reading confusing Chibi Mechagodzilla, especially when she simply stated that it meant tomorrow would be a sunny day. Chibi Mechagodzilla announced his skepticism about fortune-telling and drew Chibi Mothra's anger in the process as she defended Chibi Biollante by saying her readings were always right though also stated that you would believe they were even when they weren't. Chibi Mothra asked Chibi Biollante to look at her fortune again and she looked into her crystal ball, exciting Chibi Mothra. Chibi Mechagodzilla asked if the crystal ball was more accurate and Chibi Mothra replied that everything but the ball was a scam, confusing him even further.

Chibi Biollante looked into the crystal ball and made the following predictions: it would be the year Chibi Mothra would gain weight if she were to overeat, her lucky color was purplish-red and similar to internal bleeding, and her lucky hat is a helmet. Chibi Mothra announced that she needed to buy a purplish-red helmet as soon as possible, with Chibi Biollante just as so happening to have one on hand, drawing Chibi Mechagodzilla's suspicions that the fortune-telling was just an attempt to make money as Chibi Mothra bought the helmet. Chibi Biollante offered to tell Chibi Mechagodzilla's fortune, predicting an unlucky future and that to balance this out, his lucky number was two and eight fifteenths, his lucky pose full prostration and his lucky exercise radio calisthenics. Chibi Biollante then stated that his luck would increase if he bought items from her store, making him further suspicious until a light fell from the ceiling and hit him on the head after bouncing off Chibi Mothra's lucky hat.

"First Date Butterflies"

Chibi Mothra and Chibi Mechagodzilla arrived at Chibi Biollante's snack bar as the first stop on their tour, with Chibi Biollante welcoming them and Chibi Godzilla wondering what they were doing. As Chibi Godzilla misunderstood the purpose of their tour, Chibi Biollante told him off for not reading the room properly and called him naive but then further confused the situation by stating that Chibi Mechagodzilla and Chibi Mothra were going to duel, annoying the pair away from her restaurant and exciting Chibi Godzilla. Chibi Mechagodzilla and Chibi Mothra left shortly after.

"Chibi Mothra's Valentine"

Chibi Mothra visited Chibi Biollante's bar along with the Shobijin to ask for her advice in making handmade chocolate for Valentine's Day. Chibi Biollante initially explained the traditional way of melting a chocolate into a different shape after buying it but then explained a different foolproof method in which you buy the chocolate and then just give it in that form, disappointing Chibi Mothra as it would not be handmade like this. Chibi Biollante explained that this meant no chance of failure and that melting only to re-solidify was a waste of time, comparing it to buying ice only to melt it and make ice again. As Chibi Mothra began to agree with her, Chibi Biollante suddenly backtracked and suggested wasting time isn't always a bad thing, asking what shape she wanted the chocolate to be in. After the Shobijin first suggested a heart, a kissing-face emoji and an upside-down smiling face emoji, Chibi Biollante suggested it be Biollante shaped though this was dismissed too. Chibi Biollante suggested Chibi Mothra choose from the heart and asked what the boy she was interested in was like, hearing a negative description from the Shobijin and a positive description from Chibi Mothra. After hearing a positive memory from Chibi Mothra about watching stars, Chibi Biollante and the Shobijin selected this as the shape and Chibi Mothra left Chibi Biollante's bar with the Shobijin to make star-shaped chocolate.

"Chibi Anguirus' True Feelings"

Chibi Rodan indirectly mentioned Chibi Biollante in a social media post as a "shop girl" that Chibi Rodan saw be called cute by a "hooligan" who asked if she wanted to hang out with him, but was annoyed off by Chibi Rodan when he asked to play with him instead.
