Hello Kitty (Japanese: ハローキティ), whose Chinese name is Hello Kitty or Kitty. It is the mascot created by Japanese company Sanrio in 1974. Hello Kitty's related products are usually a white kitten with a red bow on its left ear. The Hello Kitty trademark that deliberately ignores the mouth part has been widely known since it was registered in 1976.

Sanrio, the image registrar of Hello Kitty, said that Hello Kitty is not a cat. She walks with two feet, never four feet, and has no cat behavior characteristics.

Yuko Yamaguchi, the designer of the third Hello Kitty, designed Hello Kitty as a cat. She meant deliberately not to add a mouth to Hello Kitty, in order to keep her happy forever, so that "everyone can get comfort when they see it".

Extended data:

Hello Kitty was created in a lovely way. The official explanation for why Hello Kitty doesn't have a mouth is that she communicates with her heart without any language, so that she can express more emotional changes through facial expressions. However, Hello Kitty's mouth is still drawn in the animation, because she needs to eat and talk. As for Hello Kitty, who loves roaming, although she can talk and eat, she is loyal to the original without a mouth.

Hello Kitty often wears a bow in her left ear, but there is often a five-leaf flower instead, and there are some rare changes, such as a bunch of flowers instead.

Some people think that Hello Kitty comes from a lucky cat in Japan, and the name of Hello Kitty can also be regarded as another English translation of a lucky cat, which also means beckoning cat. It has also been pointed out that Hello Kitty and 1955 were created by dick bruna, the Netherlands? Miffy? It's very similar, so I think Hello Kitty's line drawing style is not original.

In recent years, Hello Kitty has gradually entered the metropolis working style, hoping to catch the hearts of working people. Hello Kitty in high heels sometimes even shows off a little cute and sexy.
