Hello Kitty is so well done and spot on in graphic design as well as emotional connection and engagement, don't you think?
A simple thing like this Hiroshima souvenir shopping bag just grabs your eyeballs and draws you in.
I particularly like how it transcends geography and language.
Hello Kitty / ハローキティ / はろうきてい all say the same thing.

There is even an amusement center for Hello Kitty and related characters at Tama City near Tokyo if you are looking for kawaii overdose.
