She’s among the wall posters. She’s in drinking glasses, mugs, T-shirts, curtains and recently, she’s become a brand of wine.

Set in modern-day London, Hello Kitty is a young, modern girl who is full of dreams and ambition for her future. But before she can get there, she is faced with a challenge ahead. Luckily, she gets help from her fantastic friends.
Meet Hello Kitty’s friends starting with her best friend and classmate, My Melody. She’s got a great sense of humor that’s why they get on so well. They also love chatting about fashion.
Next is Hello Kitty’s boyfriend, Dear Daniel. They grew up together and they’re kind of a great mix – she likes fashion and he likes photography and dancing. Another friend of Hello Kitty is Pom Pom Purin.
When he is not smiling, he’s laughing. Just hanging out with Pom Pom Purin is enough to make everyone feel happy. When everyone else has run out of ideas, he’s just getting started on his.
The squad’s troublemaker is Bad Badtz-Maru. Saying ‘yes’ before he thinks usually makes sure the whole gang are caught up in all sorts of tricky adventures.
It’s a good thing he’s cool on his decks and everyone still likes him. Also part of Hello Kitty’s friends is her younger sister Mimmy. She’s sweet and shy. They’re best of friends but everything else is different. Hello Kitty is a dreamer and her sister likes practical things.
