mona

Still want to know about the origins of those ascii cats? All can now be revealed. My last post generated a huge response (at least in my head), and I’ve had plenty of interesting feedback (notably from Demi, thank you very much). After collating all the evidence, it would appear that the story goes something like this:

The 2 Channel community is an unqualified Internet success story. Started in 1999 by Tokyo based Hiroyuki Nishimura, the site now generates around 1,000,000 posts every day, a vast amount for any site, let alone an independently run one. It’s also unusual in that users are able to post anonymously, meaning that people are able to contribute without fear of retribution. This anonymity leads not only to a highly animated level of discussion, but also the occasional flame war. One of the most popular attacks is the phrase, “Chubo ha kaere! (You’re a lamer, get out!)”, which is more often than not greeted by the retort, “Omae mona (You too).” Legend has it that one user (no-one is sure who was the first) drew an ascii character with a speech bubble uttering the latter phrase in response to just such a flame, and the character Mona was born.

Since then the Mona has become a Japanese Internet staple, still used regularly on message boards such as 2 Channel and other underground forums, as well as starring in a quite bewildering array of flash animations. Other similar characters have developed alongside Mona.






Mona
Giko-neko (a threatening cat, the other most popular character)
Morara (Mona’s friend)
Onigiri (rice ball)
Nida (Mona with high cheekbones, Korean)
Hikki (depressed man)
Fusa-mona (woolly Mona)
Fusa-giko (woolly Giko-neko)
Sii (outcast cat)
Zonu (unaccountable being)

Other characters not shown here include 8toushin, Syobon, Marara (he’s the little fellow you see sometimes who appears to have a penis for a head) and 1San, amongst many others. If you search hard enough you’ll find an array of Mona-related merchandise - everything from mouse mats to mugs and all kinds of trinkets.

Personally, I’ve got a brand new wallpaper on my PC and a new Internet hero.

Mona. King of ascii characters.

Note: You’ll probably need to have a Japanese language character set installed on your PC to vew the many ascii drawings left in the comments section properly.

Wow. That’s some damn good research. Very cool.

omaemona = It’s just the same as you.

Nida is “slap symbol” in 2ch.

Good Job!! When supplemented, NIDA is Koreans’ symbol character for us. But, many Japanese people who dislike KOREA loves NIDA. NIDA’s Special abilities are “requiring an apology and compensation” and “claiming that our have the term of xxxx(anything).” ;)

Tell the english anime fans that they’re not hardcore otaku unless they know Monar.
Tell that if they don’t have “Monafont” installed, they are LOSERS!
Tell the english girl-bloggers that 2ch AA characters are cuddly cute & pure obscure craziness at the same time! Oh, and they’re ADOPTABLE!!!!

In other words, WE NEED FREAKING HELP!

The name of MORARA is MORALA correctly.
The origin of his name is a word called “morals?.

Almost Japanese crayz(2channeler) do not understand english and two byte code. You should use MacOSX to see Japanese charactors without switch the screen.

Good Luck!

If “Mona-Font” is installed, it is possible to see the ASCII art also in an English environment?
Since it has not tried, although it does not understand.

p.s.
If it tells about Mona, why is it that the subject of “Nurse Witch Komugi-chan Magical-Te” does not come out? :)

There is Cool AA characters.

Another fact to be known is that Nida is the character representing Korean who does not like Japanese. This is proved to know the fact that Nida is pronounced as one of Korean language.
And the raised and narrow eyes of Nida represent Korean’s eyes.

Hello
Sudden mail must be going.
I am a user on the maximum forum site in Japan.
It is TWO-CHANNELMEMBER.
http://www.2ch.net/2ch.html
This site is a BBS that eight million people use.

ASCII art and the emoticon that had arisen in the world of the net were commercialized and
the enterprise that did to monopolize it appeared now.
The name of the company is called AVEX.
http://cavex.avexnet.or.jp/index.jsp

This company thinks that it exclusively acquires the right, and sells the emoticon and ASCII art that it is the world and is the common possession in the first and the world all over the world.
What arose in the world of the net is all residents of the net
ownership things.
The border is not related to it either.

This will blaspheme the right in the net world.
It is likely to leap to the world if this precedent is made.
Then, it is a proposal.
You unite and agree with the protest campaign?
Please bring together and refer to the following as a site.
http://toutsukai.hp.infoseek.co.jp/noma/

We will wait for a better answer.
Moreover, this talk is free.
It is OK even if it writes in Blog.

Could anyone let me know the url of Fraser’s blog?
Fraser is an English and he is, as he says, “violently” interested in
2-ch culture. So I want to talk about this matter what is going on Mona.

Ahh Tan, those websites are written in Japanese only. I think we should show English pages.

If there is anyone interested in Nomaneko-problems, I will prepare English pages. Should I write some pages?

Mona in Danger of Extinction

Avex, a Japanese company, is going to sell Mona as their original brand.
They named the character Noma-cat but it looks exactly like Mona,
and they assert that they created Noma from inspiration they got from Mona.
It means that all non-commercial Ascii art creation on Internet are in danger.
This is an outline of this problem.
If you are interested, we are going to make a website in English.

http://mdn.mainichi-msn.co.jp/entertainment/news/20050913p2a00m0et014000c.html

Here is a link to the English article of Noma-cat problem in Japan.

More and more information is being gathered about
what AVEX has been doing.

Now I will show you something funny.
A Japanese singer belonging to AVEX fakes her costume
with most famous celebrities such as Madonna, Beyonce etc, etc.
please visit the webpage below:
http://blog.goo.ne.jp/horobiyo

Mr.Lewry
Is it possible that you tell your friend to visit here?
I know this is your page and you never should be compelled.
It’ll be very nice if English people could be interested.
Thank you

Tthis news’s duble very nice important

?????????????????????????????????

Firest, very sorry for some 2-channelers are making this entry awful.
And thank you for mail me Mr.Lewry.Now I set about making English page. I think I can upload in 2 or 3 days later.

Hello
Sorry for suddenly e-mail.
I am a frequent user of one of the biggest forum website in Japan called “CHANNEL-TWO.(http://www.2ch.net/2ch.htm)”
We are CHANNEL-TWO USERS.

This website has verious kinds of BBS that is used by eight million people world wide.

From this forum, various kinds of emoticon called “ASCII Art” had developed.
In these days, one music company in Japan had started to sale this ASCII Art originated characters product.
They are trying to get an exclusive right of this ASCII Art originated characters.
The name of the company is called AVEX (http://cavex.avexnet.or.jp/index.jsp).

This company is now planing to get exclusive rights to sell ASCII Art related atems, and sell them to World Wide market.
ASCII Art have been developed in General users of the Internet around the World.
Of course, it is our, all internet users property.
There is no national boundaries.

This AVEX’s project will blaspheme the rights of general users in the internet.
If it became a bad precedent, this terrible idea will spread to worldwide markets.

We really want you to join this proj
