Beary Cute

A bear, a bear-like creature, or someone who incorporates a bearish motif undeniably adorable can be said to be Beary Cute. A prime example are panda bears, as they are known to pander to the audience. Most of the characters are friendly to others or just very funny.

Contrast with Bears are Bad News, which shows the more violent nature of bears.

 * Yuna, from Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear, is a hikikomori who was transported to another world by a god who also gave her a set of bear-themed equipment: a bear suit with bear hand puppets as weapons.

Film

 * Po from the Kung Fu Panda trilogy is Adorkable to a T, being a fun-loving fanboy of all things kung-fu related. And as a bouncy little baby... well, | look at him! He's adorable!
 * Beary Bearington and the rest of the Country Bears are meant to be this, since they're a kind-hearted, lovable, goofy bunch of ursine musicians. But as impressive as the animatronic bears may look (given that they're from the Jim Henson Creature Shop), plenty of people found them more unnerving than cute thanks to how eerily realistic, yet off they look.

Puppet Shows

 * Ojo from Bear in the Big Blue House is an endearingly sweet, adorable bear cub with a big imagination. Bear himself also counts from a Gentle Giant standpoint seeing as how kind, patient, and fatherly he is towards viewers and the residents of his Big Blue House.
 * Baby Bear from Sesame Street, whose cuteness is further accented by his Elmuh Fudd Syndwome-style speech impediment.

Video Games

 * Pokemon has plenty of adorable little bears among the creatures you can catch and raise! Here's a quick rundown:
 * Gen 2 introduced Teddiursa, an adorable cub that looks like a teddy bear with a moon symbol on its head. These little guys are often seen licking their paws, because they like to soak them in sweet-tasting honey. And that's not their only cute honey-related quirk: when they find any, their moon symbol is said to glow! And they're even smart enough to make their own honey by mixing special Beedrill-collected pollen and fruit together.
 * Gen 3 has Spinda, which is more on the goofier side of cute due to being a long-eared panda-looking thing with large polka dots plastered all over its face and a constant drunken grin on its face as it teeters and wobbles around. But that goofiness is still endearing, and helps it win fans that would otherwise be alienated by how weak it is.
 * While Gen 5 mainly stuck to giving us either unique Pokemon or Gen 1 Expies, we got a Gen 2 Expy in the form of Cubchoo, who can accurately be described as Teddiursa as a polar bear cub with a huge wad of snot dripping from its little nose. Its just as compact, just as wide-eyed, just as painfully cute.
 * One would think that a region based off of France would be the last place one would run into a panda cub based on a Japanese delinquent, but Gen 6 gave us exactly that in the form of Pancham! These little guys want to look badass, they really do. But they're just plain adorable, especially when their tough facade cracks when you pet and play with them in Pokemon Amie.
 * Stufful from Gen 7 looks like a small pink red panda mixed with a teddy bear, and pack enough of a punch to knock out well-trained Pokemon with a single blow. Their evolved form, Bewear, is also adorable and resembles a Japanese mascot. They are rather friendly, but due to their massive strength, its bad news for those they want to hug because their freakish strength lets them snap anything in half. Including human spines.
 * Gen 8 would finally give us a legendary bear cub: Kubfu! They're adorably stern-looking gray bear cubs that look and fight like martial artists, and often spend their free time training their body and mind.
 * And finally, Gen 2 almost had two other cute bears in its roster as seen by old art and the beta build for Pokemon Gold: Honoguma and Kyonpan. Honoguma was a tubby little firey bear cub that was almost the Fire starter instead of Cyndaquil, while Kyonpan was an adorable Ghost-type jiangshi panda (That evolved from a voodoo doll. For some reason). It's sad that they never made the cut, but you can still play with them thanks to romhacks such as Pokemon Gold/Silver 97: Reforged!
 * Clark Wonderbot, from Inazuma Eleven Go 2: Chrono Stone, is an android that looks like a blue teddy bear. Whenever Clark gets excited, he turns pink, which happens during soccer matches, plus he also dislikes being called a bear.
 * From Persona 4, Teddie is a bear-like creature that resembles a living mascot that the Investigation Team first meets in the Midnight Channel.
 * In Sands of Destruction (video game), there are two types of Bear Ferals where one type looks like humanoid bears and the other resemble teddy bears. Taupy Topuran is a Teddy Bear Feral who is cute but holds himself in a fight.
 * The Mana of Life, from Mana Khemia, inhabits and brings to life the teddy bear held by Pamela Ibis. The Mana made a contract with Pamela, which allows her to continue living as a ghost while providing her other powers.
 * Out of all of Freddy Fazbear's incarnations across the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise, Toy Freddy does the best job at invoking this what with his blushing cheeks, round belly, and adorably dopey voice. But he becomes a lot less cute after dark, where he and the rest of his animatronic brethren will stalk the halls of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza and attempt to cruelly kill whatever poor sap has been tasked with guard duty.
 * Helpy, introduced in Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator is a more straightforward example. He's a chibified version of Funtime Freddy, but unlike his dangerous big brother? He's completely passive and helpful towards the player, being willing to help them manage their pizzeria while doing adorable happy dances to pass the time! Unfortunately, he's now one of the many threats the player has to deal with in Ultimate Custom Night, but even there he's more adorable than scary since the only thing he can do is blow an airhorn in the player's face.

Web Animation

 * Molly Blyndeff, from Epithet Erased, is a 12-year-old with a bear motif through hair loops styled like bear ears and her custom made bear hoodie. There is also her minion nickname of 'Bear Trap' given by Giovanni.

Western Animation

 * The Care Bears are technicolor teddy bear-like bears with a Belly Badge (special symbols on their bellies related to their personality and magical powers). They often help children on Earth, along with countering plans of any evil being.
 * Fluffy and Uranus are pink and blue teddybear-esque office assistants to Duckman. They are both cute to an exaggerated level along with their politically correct nature. They are both cute to an exaggerated level, along with their politically correct nature but can come off as needless.
 * Andy Panda is a cute panda cub going on different adventures around the world.
 * Winnie-the-Pooh is a yellow teddy bear who wears a red shirt that acts relatively simple and often eats honey. He lives in the 100-Acre Woods, where he often plays with Christopher Robin and his other friends.
 * 5.0.5, from Villainous, is a large blue bear with a yellow flower growing out of his head. He is a failed experiment created by Dr.Flug but shows invulnerability while helping anyone around him but can get scared relatively easily.

Real Life

 * As a rule, bear cubs are incredibly cute! Whether they're grizzly bears, black bears, panda bears, or any of the other numerous species out there, it's hard to resist the urge to cuddle and snuggle with one. But if you ever run into one in the wild,  Keep your distance.  Mother bears are infamously protective of their cubs and no matter your intentions, they will fuck you up six ways to Sunday if they catch you anywhere near them.
 * Fuzzy, soft, and achingly adorable, teddy bears are among the most beloved children's toys around the world for a damn good reason. And they can thank U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt for that: the first teddy bear was created in response to a series of satirical comics and drawings made in response to Teddy refusing to shoot a bear his men had incapacitated during a hunting trip. While the bear itself was an adult, most artists interpretations made it out to be a frightened little cub which won the hearts of many an American. So when Morris Mitchom and his wife decided to sell toy bears named after "Teddy's Bear" they were a massive hit, and the rest is history.
