Conclusion

As of 2014, 90% of the profits from Hello Kitty came from licensing of products for the international market. [41] She has been particularly popular in other Asian countries for decades, such as in China, where her cultural impact is comparable to that of Barbie in the Western world. [42] In 2008, Japan named Hello Kitty the ambassador of Japanese tourism in both China and Hong Kong, marking the first time Japan's tourism ministry had appointed a fictional character to the role. [43] Sharon Kinsella, a lecturer at Oxford University on Japanese sociology, called the selection of Hello Kitty "a bit farcical ... as if a dumbed-down cultural icon ... can somehow do something significant to alter the gnarly and difficult state of China–Japan relations."

Hello Kitty sold well immediately after her 1975 launch, and Sanrio's sales increased sevenfold. [17] Due to Japan's growing economy, many Japanese children could afford to buy Hello Kitty products. [31] Her popularity also grew with the emergence of kawaii culture, which embraces cuteness. [16] Originally, Hello Kitty was only marketed towards a child and preteen audience. In the 1990s, the target market for Hello Kitty was broadened to include teenagers and adults as a retro brand. [9] [15] Marketing to those who could not get Hello Kitty merchandise as children, and those who fondly remember items they had, Sanrio began selling Hello Kitty branded products such as purses and laptops. [9] [15] [17] The 1994–1996 Face series was the first to be designed specifically for mature consumers. [9] Hello Kitty had two Japanese comic series serialized in Ribon, a shōjo manga magazine - Hello Kitty Doki (ran from May 2007 to April 2008) [57] and Hello Kitty Peace (released in June 2008).
