  1. (anime and manga fandom slangCategory:English fandom slang#CHU) The sound of a kiss.
    • 1996 August 12, Kathleen Webb, “Re: Zoicite a guy!!!”, in alt.fan.sailor-moon‎ (Usenet):
      By the way, isn't it interesting that the Japanese hear the sound "chu" when someone kisses? In the US, we usually say, "smooch," "smack," "smerp," or even "swock." Now, everytime[sic] I kiss my husband, I'm listening to hear if it sounds like "chu."
