From baked goods to blue hedgehogs, there’s nothing international superstar Hello Kitty won’t do to make a quick buck.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, our beloved “Kitty of All Trades,” the face of untainted feline innocence herself, has gone full-frontal.
We know this is a lot to take in. It would be one thing if Hello Kitty had stripped down in the name of art. But here she sits fully exposed atop a mushroom of questionable legality with what can only be a highly potent, and probably narcotic-laced, alcoholic beverage in hand.
To her left lay a dubious anthropomorphic fungus, undoubtedly the author behind Kitty’s corruption, encouraging her to hold her hand to the sky and embrace the cosmos as he leads her through their lewd psychedelic trip.
Some people say that we’re simply reading too far into this debauchery, that this is nothing more than a simple collaboration between Sanrio and Japanese video game character Funghi.
Sorry Internet, but RocketNews24 deals in facts, and the fact is that Hello Kitty has finally rebelled against her wholesome image and embarked on a journey of moral depravity.
Those of you who wish to support Hello Kitty’s new life of debauchery should head to the Tokyo Nameko Shijo store before October 2. Check for more information below.
