Meet Inori Aizawa, Microsoft’s latest mascot for Internet Explorer.
Sporting a Windows-themed frilly dress, white tights and black gloves, this cutie definitely caught attention when she was revealed ahead of debut event at the Anime Festival Asia 2013 in Singapore. Here’s Inori herself with her introduction on her Facebook page.
Hey everyone! My name is Inori and you can think of me as a personification of Internet Explorer.
“When I was younger, I used to be a clumsy, slow and awkward girl.
However, just like the story of ugly duckling, people told me that I have really matured and changed over the years. I feel confident in my abilities now, and I’m eager to show you what I can do.
Why don’t you get to know me a little better?”
Ah yes, Microsoft definitely admitted their slow browser’s reputation but like Inori, maybe they’re both confident in their newer selves? You can know more about that and Inori herself by downloading the new IE11, when it eventually goes live. PS If you don’t download it, Inori will cry.
Sea*A Idol, Valerie Tang voiced the anime mascot and she’ll also be making a special Inori cosplay appearance this Saturday at the Microsoft’s marketing launch in Singapore; all happening in the Anime Festival Asia 2013.
