Is Hello Kitty a Copycat?
Is Hello Kitty a Copycat?
09/12/2004 11:51 PM
Xeni Jardin:

A blogger who describes himself as an "extraordinary ordinary guy in
Japan" says this on the 30th anniversary of Hello Kitty:
"Kitty's design was just a crib from ... Musti, created by the Belgian
animator/director Ray Goossens (1924-1998) [Ed note: she's the
center figure in the BoingBoing graphic at left]. Musti was
started as an animation series on TV in 1968, and its picture books
were also published. I read some of that books and loved it in my
childhood. Although it is evident to everybody that Kitty was an
imitation of Musti, Sanrio, the publisher of Hello Kitty have not
touched on it. It is said that the total copyright fee for Hello Kitty
reaches around 15 billion yen (13.7 million USD) per year, and Sanrio
got 23.7 billion yen (21.6 million USD) gross sales in second quarter
of 2004. I wonder why they don't feel shady about hiding the fact."
I'm no Hello Kitty historian, and that's news to me. Is it true?
Link to
post. This guy has a cool blog.
His post
about Japanese "jinxes" was also interesting.
On a related note, don't miss the image of "Hello Kitty De Milo" in
this news story, which is, like, so obviously a total ripoff of some Greek art dude. Link (Thanks, Brian)
Update: OMG! This is turning into one big
plushy piracy clusterfuck! BoingBoing reader Eva says, "See my response
on Hello Kitty vs Musti here. Basically, I think Musti is in turn a
rip off of the Dutch rabbit Miffy, which was published more than a
decade before Musti." Link
