About
Hello Kitty Girl is internet slang for a particular type of e-girl with an affinity for Hello Kitty merchandise and aesthetics. In memes, a "Hello Kitty Girl" is depicted as attractive but emotionally unstable and potentially violent (similar to a "Yandere"). In January 2023, the character and archetype became the subject of memes, primarily on TikTok, in which men suffered injuries as a result of attempting to date a Hello Kitty Girl or trying to stop their friends from dating them.
Origin
While it's unclear when memes about "Hello Kitty Girls" exactly started, one of the earliest and most viral examples was posted on January 14th, 2023, by TikToker @melonnabba[1] (shown below). The clip shows a dramatic scene from the Dragon Ball anime, representing "me finding my homie after he went on a date with a Hello Kitty Girl." It gained over 440,000 likes in four days (shown below).

Some fictional characters who may fit the archetype are Rebecca from Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Violet from Neon White.
