I heard this in a Japanese song sung by Vocaloid Hatsune Miku
([YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkYbNnGe2Ik))

Does anyone know what this onomatopoeia means? It's clear from the context of
the lyrics that it is an onomatopoeia, but I've never heard it used before.

For context, the lyrics say:

> ホッペタを少し膨らませて  
>  I’ll puff out my cheeks and go
>
> モキュモキュにしてやるぞ  
>  “mokyu mokyu” just for you, OK?
>
> アヒルみたいな唇をして  
>  I’ll make duck lips and go
>
> モキュモキュにしてやるぞ  
>  “mokyu mokyu” just for you, OK！

question
meaning song-lyrics onomatopoeia
What does the Japanese onomatopoeia もきゅもきゅ mean?
earthliŋ's response has a link to a Japanese page that explains the meaning
but for those who can't read Japanese I figured I'd answer in English.

It basically means cute in a soft and cuddly way.

It means "cute (and fluffy)".

Imagine a hamster stuffing its face with food.
