[edit] Summary
[edit] Wikipe-Tan
Wikipe-tan, a moe anthropomorphization of Wikipedia, similar in theme to an OS-tan. In Japanese animation, "moe" characters are those designed to elicit a protective or loving response from the audience. Moe anthropomorphism is a form of anthropomorphism where moé qualities are given to non-human beings, objects, concepts, or phenomena. Like many moe characters, Wikipe-tan is designed to be a cute young girl.
Wikipe-tan first appeared in the Futaba Channel on an unspecified date, drawn by Japanese Wikipedia user Kasuga. She is drawn in the "anime style" seen in many animations in Japan. Wikipe-tan is shown here with a tan and an afro inspired by GunnarRene's pending trip to Australia.
