The use of the word kun in Japanese
To use a word ending in -kun, it is usually used to call the name of a man / boy. The suffix -kun can be used for people who are very close (familiar) to us.

The use of the word chan in Japanese
For the word chan, it can be said to call someone cute like a child or girl (idol members for example). But the suffix chan is also sometimes used by a younger sibling to call Mas or Ma'am who are still in the same family, it's just that the younger sibling doesn't use the sister's name but uses the words -chan (お 兄 ち ゃ ん) or Onee-chan (お 姉 さ ん). The use of the word chan is not actually used for young children or girls, but the ending chan can also be used for people who are very close to us, such as friends or girlfriends.

The -sama suffix is usually used to pay tribute to someone who has a higher rank than us. The use of the -sama word can be interpreted as Tuan. If in the anime the -sama ending is usually used by waiters in cafes or in a large mansion.
