Anime/Animated characters

I really don’t understand the attraction to anime. I know it is super popular, but it doesn’t capture my fancy, even though I love being silly.

So, I don’t get the Hello Kitty fascination, even by sophisticated adults like this woman on the subway.

I also don’t get the use of all the anime in ads or instructions.

I think I find it juvenile in a way that feels patronizing. This from a woman who loves gnomes. 😍 I guess it is just not my style.

  2. It’s Asia MB! Always trendy. When Dunkin Donuts opened in Taipei the lines went on forever! People will wait patiently for days for a new trend.
    Hello Kitty is such a lasting icon! You could walk into Takashimaya in 2005 and see a huge display, and that hasn’t waned! Everybody loves a colorful cartoon icon. Like Peanuts was to America.
