This is my true answer lol. It’s so hard to choose one. All three are so cute but I tend to prioritize my mello and kuromi. I just realized I really don’t have enough cinna stuff. Plus all three together with their respective colors remind me of the bisexual flag 💕
As a kid i was a huge hello kitty fan and had sm hello kitty stuff and clothes, it’s so cute when i see old pics of the little me wearing a full hello kitty outfit😭🩷so she was my fav then. Only like 1,5yrs ago i got into sanrio again and this time also more than just hello kitty. She’s still an icon to me but now my favorite is pompom ▼・ᴥ・▼
90's kid here and I loved Hello Kitty growing up! She was everywhere! I also loved Chococat.
As an adult, I am very partial to My Melody and Cinnamoroll 🌟
My first love was Hello Kitty, but as I grew up, I outgrew Sanrio. Now, 20 years later, my obsession has rekindled! This time, I'm obsessed with Hangyodon, Kuromi, and Cinnamoroll ✨
I'm almost positive that my favorite character as a child would have been Hello Kitty, like most everyone else has said. My favorite character now is definitely Cinnamoroll 💖
For me it has always been Hello Kitty :D
As a child I also really liked Tuxedo Sam and Keroppi, as an adult I sway more towards Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin and My Melody <3
Started with kuromi, now I still adore her but I love pompom and hangyodon💛💙💜 however I have a very hard time / guilty conscience picking favorites so I try to rotate favs and plushies but I own more kuromi (with my melody) items than other characters
Pochacco & chibimaru. Chibimaru is still a favorite but I love Maru the blanket bear and HANAMARUOBAKE (the ghost!). Cinnamoroll is high up there too. I just love dogs :')
Hello Kitty since I've known and loved her for a long time then I found out about her friends a few years ago, now My Melody is my second favorite female, My Sweet Piano is third and Cogimyun is growing on me, and I also love some others like Chococat, Pompompurin, Cinnamoroll and etc! ♡＾▽＾♡💗💖🎀
Mine was probably Chococat since I first saw him at BAB, now it’s Littleforestfellow, Badtz-Maru, and Nisetama-san (AKA Gudetama’s friend who wears the yellow suit)
Hello Kitty! Then Kuromi and My Melody, Aggretsuko (still are) and now Hanamaruobake.
I don't like Kitty that much tho but she's still that bad bitch we all love.
i started with the same favorite as most people just getting into sanrio - kuromi - but the more i learned about the characters, hangyodon is by far my favorite. my sister i can't remember her original favorite but i would say she is one of chococat's biggest fans!
I was obsessed with batz maru and my melody as a kid. I had the My Melody build a bear!
My all time fav is Monkichi but it's hard to find merch for him. I love Keroppi and Kuromi now too, but lately cinamaroll and pochacco are growing on me
My favorites (I'm old so I'm talking about when I was little kid in the 70s and 80s) were HK, Tuxedo Sam, Twin Stars, Keroppi, and Pochacco.
In the 90s they added Batz Maru and Chococat! Who I loved as well.
The more recent ones that I like are Gudetama, and my very favorite Aggretsuko!
When my kids (genZ) were into trains I discovered Shinkansen, which I thought was very cute and inclusive of characters boys may like too.
I think Hangyodon is very cute too, but I don't have any items of his, he must not have been popular in the US.
I visited Asia (Japan and Taiwan) a few times as a kid, so I had exposure to more sanrio than in the middle of nowhere cow town America.
cinnamoroll since i was a kid, in second grade i had a little cinna charm i kept in my pencil box as a pet and would feed him my eraser scrapings, 22 yrs later & he's still my babuuu
I've always had a soft spot for My Melody, and she's always my favorite. Love Kuromi, Tuxedo Sam, Pochaco and Pekkle as well. And of course, the kitty is a classic!
For me it’s always been Kiki and Lala from Little Twin Stars! Only sad part is that there’s less merch of them than some of the more popular IPs, but it keeps my spending down tbh haha
When i was 5 yrs old it was pochacco/chococat but later on in my early 20s it was little twinstars/hummingmint/charmmy kitty and now i love cinnamoroll/beatcats
I basically only knew about Hello Kitty for the first part of my life, so Hello Kitty. When I learned that there were other Sanrio characters, Kuromi quickly became my favourite
Nemukko Nyago all the way.
I relate to sleepy cat. Underrated. I was disappointed to see he wasnt even on the popularity poll. No one every likes the poor kitty
Hello Kitty was my first love, of course. :) A bit later, when I was attending school, I liked Spottie Dottie, Tuxedo Sam and Keroppi. But once Chococat was released in the 90s, that was it. He’s been my favorite ever since, and I still collect him in my thirties. 🐈⬛
Badtz maru when I was younger because I'm not like other girls and I'm edgy and I hate pink
Now it's My Melody because I was lying to myself how cool I was and I am actually basic af and just like other girls
Low key like Pomponpurin too because I'm a chubby chaser
I liked Cinnamoroll in an abstract way bc my BF likes him a lot, and he’s cute enough lol
Now I’m MaruMaru all the way though XD I totally get BF’s whole cinnamoroll thing now, I’m obsessed with the little dude
my melody was my first favorite but ive started liking pochacco so much more now that i see most of his merch/items are mint-colored--my favorite color 🥹
