The format

What does Crying Baby Yoda mean?

Also called Sad Baby Yoda · Crying Grogu · Baby Yoda Crying Cat

Grogu’s oversized, watery eyes turn a small disappointment into a plea for sympathy. Add the reason for the look below his face.

The edited eyes make Grogu look close to tears. The caption can give him a minor setback, a tender moment, or a reason to ask for one more chance.

Keep the cause simple enough to understand immediately. The face provides the emotion, so the caption only needs to explain what happened.

Origin

Crying Cat eyes give Grogu a different expression.

Grogu is the young alien protected by Din Djarin in The Mandalorian. Viewers initially called the character Baby Yoda because of his resemblance to Yoda. [1] [2]

This image is an edit. A November 16, 2019 upload by yokeimono on Know Your Meme shows the same picture and explains that Crying Cat eyes were combined with Baby Yoda. The upload also mentions an earlier Twitter post without giving its date. [2]

Caption guide

Put the reason for the tears below the face.

Use the dark area along the lower edge for one short caption. Leave the eyes and ears unobstructed; they make the emotion recognizable.

An ordinary disappointment can be enough: a snack is gone, a plant has wilted, or a pet has chosen someone else’s lap. Avoid adding a long backstory.

The reason for the tears
The situation along the lower edge.
  • Name the event that caused the reaction.
  • Use a short sentence that fits below Grogu.
  • Try a fond or pleading caption as well as a sad one.
