When I worked at DLR in the 80's my friend Johnny, whenever he saw a Hello Kitty shirt, would yell, "Hello Kitty, ya big fathead!" He was also fond of saying "Gee, Poshboy, you really are special!"

But I guess you had to be there.

That was cute, but it always bugged me that you never see Hello Kitty with a mouth. Her sister in that intro had a mouth, but I find it just an eensy bit disturbing that a character would have basically the same pose and no facial expressions.

maybe she has more hair on her face around her mouth.
they are trying to update her and her friends, look at this:

l think she lost some of her charm with it now.

In japan people go nuts for miss kitty and her friends.
they are sort of like the japanese disney.

hey, beats the heck out of that dogfart place.

I think the 3-D effect gives more to work with--the characters aren't stiff-looking like they were before. As to the wedding, I thought Hello Kitty was getting married, not a real couple. :D: Would've been nice if the soundtrack was in English--the only thing I understood was "Kitty".

My 5 year old Niece (Birthday today actually) has a good many HK animated DVD's - SO I know that Kitty Kitty-Kitty song pretty well. In fact, nearly ALL her birthday presents she will be getting from us are HK related. HK light up doll house, HK Toy hamper, HK play Kitchen ... you get the idea.

Her bedroom is done with HK too.

The reason Hello Kitty has no mouth is that she is supposed to embody every emotion - the Japanese creators felt that a little girl would not want to snuggle a stuffed toy that was smiling when she felt sad or angry, so she has no mouth so Kitty has whatever emotion you want her to have!

And yes I am a Hello Kitty fanatic...
