It's finally here! It took a lot to get to this point but I'm glad the video is out now. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you learn something! Let me know what you think, and maybe comment your fav Sanrio character (or your new fav if you found one from this video you like!) ♡ SOCIAL MEDIAS ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ ♡ Twitter: heypinku ♡ Instagram: hey.pinku Please don't go out and harass anyone mentioned in the video. Thanks! Edit: I refer to MeiAIDs as he/him in the video but someone in the comments informed me that they don't go by that anymore, but they go by she/her. Regardless of what MeiAIDs goes by, please be respectful in the comments. Thank you :) Edit 2: Another lovely commenter said they saw people with real merch with the "Sanrio Characters" tag. I said it was an indicator because I saw two fake plushies with it, but I'm still not sure it's a good indicator anymore because of this. Please let me know if you do know about the Sanrio characters tag tho! But for now, some definite signs of fake merch are if it has a "cinnamoroll" tag and it's not cinnamoroll, and if the copyright dates on the tush tag and the hanging tag are different. Also if you are still unsure about your plushie, you can ask the Sanrio subreddit about it. ✨ Edit 3: As you can see, I'm not a native Japanese speaker and it's not my second language so I apologize if I don't pronounce some things correctly. I do try my best though! And if I get things wrong I definitely look them up to see the correct pronunciation. (Not me pronouncing pompompurin wrong LOL ok I've learned 😂) Edit 4: A cool commenter mentioned that Sanrio Boys isn't officially BL because there isn't any love arcs in there, but it just appeals to that audience. I haven't watched it but I appreciate them letting me know and everybody else :) The source I used called it that tho and while it isn't officially BL it makes sense it appeals to that audience with an all male cast!

I know a little bit more about kittys level for the backrooms, so basically it’s a safe level that if you bring kitty a soft cute pink toy ( like a plushie or something) he will befriend you and follow you around. You can actually live in this level, there’s like wifi, food, and other stuff in there. There’s like a video on this and it’s not really hard to find. Just look up “kittys level backrooms” and I’m sure you will find it.

Just a warning, Kitty(the backrooms entity) dont jumpscare you at all, it just follows you throught the level looking at you, she is not agressive at all, but because her appearence, I see a lot of people saying that she tries to kill you or scares you, she doesnt. The level and the entity is not bad at all, the level itself is a safe level where you can stay for how much time you want, as I said, Kitty only stares at you, leaving you with a unconfy feeling, but she doesnt harm you at all. Ik is not so important, but Kitty is so loveable, and seeing people portrait her as an agressive entity makes me sad :(

RE: “Miffy” I know this video is about Sanrio, but living in the NL, I can’t resist sharing some fun facts! Miffy’s original name is Nijntje (pronounced “NINE-tcha”). She is a beloved Dutch children’s cartoon character! In Dutch, the word for rabbit is “konijn” (ko-NINE), and adding a “je” or “tje” at the end of a word makes it diminutive. She also has a last name, Pluis (pronounced like the name “klaus,” but with a p instead of a k), the Dutch word for “lint.” So essentially, Miffy’s real name is Dust Bunny. Which I find so damn precious. Great video!!

One of the things that's missing in the iceberg is the movie Chirin No Suzu (Ringing Bell). The film was made by Sanrio and is about a lamb who's mother gets killed by a wolf. The lamb wants to get revenge on the wolf for killing his mother and actually gets trained alongside the wolf himself to become stronger. It's probably one of the darkest things Sanrio has produced as far as I know.

FINALLY someone makes a video like this, sanrio is a company with LOTS of history that needs to be more well known. amazing work on the video! some additions: -unico was created and produced by osamou tezuka, whom you may know for creating astroboy. unico himself is a bit of a tragic character, mostly because his whole thing is that he's destined to be alone. unico had a manga series and 4-5 movies -there was an official set of hello kitty tarot cards -beetroid. robot beetles. not much else to say. -kero kero kerroppi and freinds, a straight to video cartoon series featuring keroppi, and shorts about other characters suck as pekkle and badtz-maru. this series had an English release, that for some reason left out badtz-maru -hello kitty animation theater(not to be confused with furry tale theater), a show made in 2000 featuring sanrio characters who portrayed fairy tales, including... the little match girl, for some reason. -during the 1970s and 80s, sanrio video produced a bunch of children's animated films, such as the mouse and his child, the ringing bell, the water prince and the fire child, and a journey through fairyland. almost all of these films have some sort of dark or sad subject matter. - sanrio can be really stingy with copyright, and tends to crack down on independent creators who use their characters in products. -caribadix. a product line featuring button-eyes cat characters, it was later adapted into an anime that i for the life of me cannot find anywhere. -hello kitty's mouth-having status is WILDLY inconsistent throughout most cartoons. in shows like furry tale theater, hello kitty's paradise, and growing up with hello kitty, kitty is shown with a mouth. -dear Daniel. hello kitty's boy(?)friend, not much else to say about him. -sanrio is the license-holder for peanuts(snoopy, charlie brown, that whole deal) in japan! -hello kitty's furry tale theater is one of the only western-animated sanrio productions -crossovers. so many crossovers, from naruto to pusheen, hello kitty has probably met them -hello kitty is british. she lives in England. i'm a bit of a huge nerd on this subject, i'm sure there's tons of stuff even i missed. but enjoy these fun facts.

Thank you for mentioning Show By Rock!! In this video !! Some information about the project that where possibly omitted (and just general funfacts not commonly known) and I wanted to mention as well as clearing some possible misonceptions: -(clarification)The project is targeted at both male, and female, as well as the general mature audience (working adults), and not just the male audience itself. -In the spirit of Sanrio collaborating with many companies, Show By Rock!! has collaborated with bands such as Silhouette from the Skylit, Maximum the Hormon, and BIGMAMA to name a few (the in-universe bands to these ones would be called "tie-in bands and their counterparts have a different name to their irl band names as well as mascots to represent each band member). They've also have collaborated with individual performers as well (the singing voice for the character "Marimari" is Marie Ueda, for example). -(clarification)The project's official release year is 2012 (not 2013), with them releasing the very first rhythm mobile game "Show By Rock!!" under the company "Geechs (ギークス株式会社)", the bands "Plasmagica" and "SHINGANCRIMSONZ" being the main faces of the franchise at that time. This rhythm game ended its service in Decemeber 2019 and 2020 was when "SHOW BY ROCK!! Fes A Live" (the one showcased in the video) took its place and was under the company Square Enix until its recent shutdown in November 2022 (an offline mode is available for those who have already played the game and downloaded the data before its shutdown). -The franchise currently has a total of 4 Live Musical (2.5D Stage Plays) adaptations, mainly centered around the boy bands (Show By Rock!! Fes II Thousand XVII, Kyousou no Bloody Labyrinth, Abyss's Cross Ambivalence, and -DOKONJO NORTH HIGH SCHOOL- The Reflection of Night and Black (a digest video with english subtitles can be watched on their official channel) ). -Show By Rock!! has an official youtube channel under the name "SHOW BY ROCK!! Official Channel" (@ showbyrock4835). -(somewhat off topic but also still related) Sanrio has two official VTubers "Mashima Himeko (となりの研究生マシマヒメコ。)" and "Natsumerenge (なつめれんげ)". Himeko was later integrated into the Show By Rock!! project (along with her song "Arco Color"), while Natsumerenge remains as his own thing (he's a lot newer, debuting in August 2021). -The franchise currently has a PIXIVFANBOX you can subscribe to for more content, which is cool because it generally has a lot of lore of the franchise. -Currently the franchise has roughly around 36+ bands (including original and tie-in bands), and most likely still counting. -Fans of the franchise are named "Rockers". I hope this information is useful and anyone that reads this has learned something new! Show By Rock!! is currently underatted even amongst Sanrio fans, and I hope more people can give this IP a look beyond the anime adaptations, especially for the music :) Bonus general Sanrio facts: -Sanrio Virtual FES is virtual event held on VRChat. Started in 2022, they basically recreated Sanrio Puroland and they host a lot of events and concerts over the course of 2-3 days! -Aside for the general sanrio stores, there is also the Sanrio Anime Store (サンリオアニメストア) as well! They have an online shop as well as physical ones in JP :D -Sanrio started a new project called "Maimaigoen (まいまいまいごえん)". I'm currently not too familiar with this IP, but as far as I know, it's their first ever project that leans a bit towards the horror-esque route. There's currently a manga and game out for this IP.

Gonna add a few more here, since I kind of came here just for Show By Rock as well. The franchise name is often -nicely- abbreviated in Japanese as _SB69_, as "69" can be pronounced "ro-ku" using goroawase. Its reputation as being for older audiences is mainly because it features and homages genres of music that wouldn't appeal to young children. -There were actually two Show By Rock games. The original was active from 2013 until its end of service in 2019, and _Show By Rock!! Fes A Live_ launching shortly afterwards in 2020 and retaining most of the previous game's content, before ending service last November. The third and fourth anime seasons are adaptions of _Fes A Live_ specifically. -The SB69 games were only released in Japanese, though the anime was both released globally both with subtitles and dubbed. I'm not sure whether that was due to a language barrier, all songs in the game being in Japanese, or due to copyright issues. -Both games are rhythm genre mobile games in the same vein as the TapTap series, but contain gacha mechanics. The player assembles a band out of a number of obtainable cards each representing a band member. -Characters in Show By Rock have both a human (or humanoid, rather, seeing as how most are kemonomimi) form, as well as a more chibi form in the style of more traditional Sanrio characters, which is called a "Myumon". Most characters are animal Myumons, though nonanimal or otherwise esoteric Myumon forms are not uncommon, including eggs (with intact shells unlike Gudetama), a sentient mountain, or a crab who is actually made of imitation crab meat. -Characters in the game are in their Myumon forms most of the time, appearing in their human forms mainly in card art and promotional images. -However, in the anime, main characters are usually in their human forms and Myumon segments are done in 3d, usually for when a band is performing in concert. Background characters and a few notable non-musicians will appear in Myumon form in 2d parts of the show. -Songs in the franchise are all attributed to an in-universe band. Real-life acts and their members who contribute music have in-universe counterparts with different names. The aforementioned Marie Ueda/Marimari is part of a band called "Shinimonogurui" here, for instance. Other notable bands and their SB69 versions include Clammbon (here called Labomunch), babymetal group Alice Juban (AliceBeans), and yksb feat.MiLO×31STYLE (Rapezziauto). -Kana Yaginuma/Yaginupan of A crow is white/Shirorakurosuka? is the only musician known to have requested a specific Myumon species. She wanted to be a panda, her favorite animal, but as Shirorakurosuka? is a group composed of migratory birds, she became a panda/bird hybrid as a compromise. -If you've ever seen a GIF of Cyan (the girl at 25:42) doing a cute little dance, it's from the anime's Season 2 opening.

I was hoping I would hear of Hello Kitty's twin sister Mimmy in the video! It was an amazing video but I grew up having watched this one Sanrio anime from the early 2000s called "Hello Kitty: Ringo no Mori" or Hello Kitty : The Apple Forest. It went over Mimmy and Kitty's adventure in their world, using a special charm and powder and eventually go in another world inhabited by human looking fairy-like beings. I vividly remember the two evil chipmunks from it too, it was hilarious... The villain Akuro (Mimmy turned evil by a really scary villain for a child) just wanted to turn everything black it was pretty wild

Aggretsuko/Aggressive Retsuko started out in 2016, not 2018. There was a series of 90-second long shorts that released weekly up until the first season of the full-length anime aired. It has the same cast, but there are differences to some of the characters, most obviously their names. It got released worldwide, but I think it had a different distribution channel which is why it isn't as well known and unfortunately probably doesn't belong in the top layer.

I've been a huge Sanrio fan my whole life but there were definitely a lot of things in here I'd never heard about!

wanted to mention that sanrio has produced quite a few movies that weren’t mentioned. i’m a big fan of the sea prince and the fire child in particular. there’s even a scene in this movie where creatures very similar to cinnamoroll are seen flying through the sky/ocean. unico is in two movies and there’s some really cute characters in those. a journey through fairyland is another sanrio movie and this one actually featured several sanrio characters in a brief musical sequence, namely hello kitty, little twin stars, my melody, strawberry king, and more. i’m a big fan of sanrio movies and i never hear them talked about so i just wanted to mention these lil fun facts :)

Sanrio also did a collab with Nintendo of a game called Splatoon 2, a multiplayer online game. During this collab, they did a splatfest event and if anyone did know what splatfest is? It basically having two team theme of you having a option of which is the best theme during this event. For example, Ketchup vs Mayo, Cats Vs Dogs, and so on. Back of this collab, is based on popular characters from Sanrio and during the final result, My Melody won the whole splatfest event. Unfortunately this event was only a Japanese exclusive event, but latest they have gameplay footage on KZitem. That's pretty much it about this collab, love the iceberg narrator from covering up the history of Sanrio!

One thing that wasn't included in the Iceberg is the song "Hello Kitty" by Blood on the Dance Floor, I can't remember what the lyrics to the song are but since it's a botdf song it's most likely inappropriate. If the band name sounds familiar, even though you don't listen to emo/scream music. That is the band Dahvie Vanity was apart of, if you haven't heard about him and all of the stuff he was involved in research at your own risk. Giant trigger warning for SA and grooming, if you're sensitive to topics like those I would suggest you don't look into it for your own mental health. I stopped listening to them years before everything he did came out.

There is one collab Sanrio did that may not be of importance to you, but in 2016, Sanrio did one with P&G (the company that owns the Pampers brand) to make Hello Kitty-themed Pampers Easy Ups training underwear, which is fancy talk for "training pants" or "pull-ups". They were redesigned with the same Hello Kitty brand in 2017 with different designs of the character on them, until in 2018 onward they were replaced with DreamWorks Trolls characters for the designs, and then MLP:FiM. Not saying the MLP ones outshine the Hello Kitty ones, but they're equal in cuteness. And don't worry, Nintendo once owned a chain of love hotels for adults in Japan when they first started out as a company. They made hanafuda cards as Nintendo Playing Card Co., and they own the Seattle Mariners.

Me waiting for mention of Cinnamoroll universe or Cinnomoangels: I remember finding a character named mocha, she looked so cute! I love her! I saw someone mention her on Twitter and seeing her designs made me love her instantly, so I googled her and she’s apart of this group called cinnamoangels, it’s a band I assume? But the group has trio named, Mocha, Chiffon and Azuki who are cute! But mocha is my favorite and I need more artworks of her And apparently there’s a lil whole universe of cinnomoroll universe according to the hello kitty wiki, maybe they named it since the characters have similar design base as cinnamoroll, There are characters such as espresso, milk, coco and nuts, cappuccino and ofcourse, the cinnoangels They’re all so cute! My favorite is mocha!!! I need more of her

I did heard from ppl on tiktok that Kitty is actually pretty helpful and if you give Kitty a gift (has to be an item resembling cute/kawaii aesthetics and in the color pink), Kitty will be able to help you to the next level and doesn't mind that you rest in this level; however, I don't know who accurate that information is. You will even find food in this Level.

Something that wasn't mentioned here that I remember from when I was a kid was this Nintendo DS game about Hello Kitty and friends preparing for a party. I remember playing it for hours as a kid, and it's also how I remember all of the Hello Kitty character's names I guess. When I saw Usahana in this video I was so confused how I knew her, because I knew I loved her but I couldn't seem to place a finger on where I knew her from, turns out, it was from the DS game! There are also some pretty funny memes floating around about Usahana because in the game she was party of the group of friends making dinner, which means she got to hold a knife lol.
