Hello Kitty was created by Shimizu Yuuko 清水侑子 in 1974 for Sanrio (株式会社サンリオ) as a brand name to attract pre-adolescent female customers. Hello Kitty is actually a family of characters with the main one named Kitty White. Initially , the founder of Sanrio Tsuji Shintarou 辻 信太郎 wanted to reflect the motto of his company as a social communication company, so he came up with " Hi Kitty" but later he settled with the motto "Hello Kitty". She first appeared on a vinyl purse.

Hello Kitty obviously is a Japanese brand but the character herself is British (at the time 1974 British culture was popular in Japan). Hello Kitty was born in London, with sister Mimmy (Mimmy White) who wears her bow on the right ear as opposed to Hello Kitty (Kitty White) who wears it on her left ear. Hello Kitty's father is George and mother is Mary. They live with grandfather Anthony and grandmother Margaret. Kitty White has a best friend named Daniel Starr who plays the piano. Kitty White also has two pets : A persian cat (cat having a cat , laugh~~). Her cat wears a necklace that holds the key to Hello Kitty's jewelry box. Another pet is a hamster named Sugar, given to Kitty by Daniel.
Why doesn't Hello Kitty have a mouth? According to Sanrio, they want fans to project whatever feelings they have onto Hello Kitty; if her fan is sad , then there is a frown ; if her fan is happy , then there is a smile. The other explanation given by Sanrio is that Hello Kitty speaks from the heart, not mouth.
Even though Hello Kitty is not as popular as she was first created, the brand name has brought billions of profit to Sanrio. Merchandises range from pencil, stationery, keychains, toys, fashion, jewelry, electronics, video games, all the way up to airplanes, etc, anything you can think of , including ironically , sex toys and guns!! I wouldn't be surprised that they send Hello Kitty to space in one of those upcoming commercial spacecrafts. Will Virgin Airlines (a British company) carry a Hello Kitty branded spacecraft which they will be flying?
This Japanese woman is the world record holder for having the largest collection of Hello Kitty merchandises.
I will be surprised that she is not wearing Hello Kitty Tampon !!

There are also several Hello Kitty animations throughout the years. The first one was in 1897 with the last one in 2006.
Hello Kitty is the embassador of Japanese tourism to China and Hong Kong as the brand is exceptionally popular at these locations.
Unfortunately, there was also some negative publicity associated with Hello Kitty. In 1999, a cruelsome murder involving the culprit putting the victim's decapitated head in a Hello Kitty doll happened in Hong Kong.
Even though Hello Kitty was initially well-received by pre-adolescents but as time goes by, her popularity grows to include young adults (mainly females) and me (an old male adult)!!!
I do not know why I like Hello Kitty ever since she first appeared; maybe the way she sits and her head turns to the side, or maybe her design simplicity : Two black dots for eyes and a few whiskers? Or the extremely short limbs?? It is my shameless secret~~~
