Sure we all got to hear Hello Kitty at some point, we could even have had some product of that lovely kitten that became a hit in all aspects, but what could be behind it?
The cartoon marked entire generations
Hello Kitty is a character created by the designer Ikaka Shimizu, a Japanese designer, and acquired copyright in 1976 and was acquired by the Japanese company Sanrio in 1976, and has long been its flagship product, to the point of having exclusive stores of Hello Kitty in many countries of the world, by the hand of Yuko Yamaguchi.
Hello Kitty is a kitten full of beauty, tenderness and charm that even managed to become an ambassador of the UNICEF and ambassador of tourism in Japan and has become the worship of children, adolescents and even adults.
But could you hide some dark secret behind such a charismatic and charming character? A legend says that there was a woman whose only daughter had an irreversible cancer of mouth and to which the doctors had already evicted. She had gone to many churches and cults, but nowhere could she find the cure for her daughter.
The woman, desperate, would have gone to satanic cults and would have made a pact with the devil and this, in return for curing the daughter, would have entrusted the work of designing for him an idol that was adored by the crowds, with the purpose the secret of diverting the attention of God’s children and adolescents and immersing them in idolatry and in the worship of material things.
This last part would not have been communicated to Ikaka and she only thought that she was designing a cute kitten and her surprise would be great when she found out that all she was asked to do was create a kitten.
Legend has it that when the doll was finished, the girl was completely healed of her illness, however, and as a curiosity, she would have designed Hello Kitty without a mouth, because of the mouth cancer she had suffered if her daughter.
According to some theories, it is possible that Hello Kitty does not mean “hello kitty”, but “hello demon”. The resemblance between the Japanese ‘Harō’, which means ‘demon’ and the English ‘Hello’ is notorious. However, it could also mean “I adore you demon.”
After all and according to legend, the devil wanted to create a character that was adored by the whole world and Hello Kitty would have become just that, in an act of idolatry that diverts young people of important things and makes them fall into the vanity of the world.
Beyond this, in 2014, Sanrio left the question sentenced when they stated that Hello Kitty was not a kitten. They affirm that it is a cartoon character, that it is a girl, a friend, but not a cat, something that neither affirms one nor the other and continues to leave the ground open to speculation.
