Higepiyo (Japanese: ヒゲぴよ, lit. 'Tweet Beard') is a four-panel gag manga by Risa Itō about a small yellow bird with a beard, who ends up as a pet of a boy named Hiroshi. Serialized between 2004 and 2006 in Shueisha's Chorus magazine, the series was later compiled into a single volume on 12 January 2007.[1][2] It was later adapted into an anime television series, which premiered on 3 April 2009, directed by Atsushi Takeyama, written by Natsuko Takahashi and with music by Toshio Masuda. The anime adaptation later inspired the creation of a spin-off manga series, published in Ribon magazine.[3]
