The recent TikTok Hello Kitty filter is driving people up a wall. TikTok has always been interesting but what have they done this time?
Who is Hello Kitty and what is this filter?
Before we get into what TikTok has done this time, let us first take a look at who Hello Kitty is.
By appearance, she is depicted as a humanoid white cat with a red bow.
Hello Kitty is a fictional character created by Yuko Shimizu, under the Japanese company Sanrio. She is an icon of pop culture, being the face of childhood accessories: backpacks, notebooks, glasses, mugs, and more.
Understanding her reputation, Hello Kitty is created for young audiences, especially toddlers though her content is consumed by people of all ages.
Keeping this in mind, it is disgusting but not shocking to know that people have created NSFW content, which is this TikTok filter in our case.
After trying out the filter themselves, many commentators were reluctant, a few of their comments are given below:
What is wrong with the filter on TikTok?
In basic terms, the Hello Kitty Tiktok filter is uncensored porn, showcasing an adult version of the adorable Sanrio character.
Many people have tried this filter to understand the mystery behind it. After choosing the filter option, when you press record, a pop-up comes floating over your head. It has the question asking, “Favourite hello kitty?”
After you nod your head toward the Hello Kitty that you like, that picture is replaced with another one of Hello Kitty’s friends.
So far this filter may seem normal, which begs the question as to where the NSFW comes in.
Well, after the older picture is replaced by a new one, you get to see the sickness of this filter.
Because the new picture that is shown is that of Hello Kitty with Human-like female reproductive organs. This was dubbed as Hello Kitty showing her “literal kitty” as repulsive as that is.
One TikTok user’s reaction to this filter was shocking, as can be seen below.
