I'm a man, and I really love the Hello Kitty x Gundam collaboration. I also grew up with Kerropi, my brother liked Badtz-maru, while my cousin liked Pochacco. Sanrio is totally for boys just at a younger age normally.

Yall stop being mean and why did u search this video, if its just to be mean that means u never had a good childhood and need a new good life and be nice to other people!! Important: if u don't whant people doing it to you so don't do it!
Well said! 😊 You covered this topic and the history of kawaii (cute) culture in a clear, simple way. Funny enough your video pops up after I finish watching the Sanrio Boys anime haha. I'm a 22 year old man and I love Sanrio and all things cutesy. Keroppi and Cinnamoroll are my favorites. As long as you aren't hurting anybody, people shouldn't judge you for being a guy that likes cutesy stuff. Anyone of any age and gender can appreciate cute culture 🙂

I’m a 20 year old guy, almost turning 21, I have recently gotten into Sanrio, Sanrio has really helped me a lot through my mental health (depression and anxiety) and as someone with Autism with ADHD they’re like my stimming tools/ imaginary friends it has really given me and sense of identity, It has really also helped become close with my CLOSE 12 year old cousin (I regard her as “cousin bestie” 😂) she loves Cinnamonroll and My Melody, While I love Kuromi and Cinnamoroll , we would always talk about Sanrio and she would always give me Sanrio stuff (ILHSM) I would say that I don’t fit the typical male stereotypical interest too as I’m into Barbie, Bratz ,K-Pop and I freaking love fashion sm!! ( although I’m not that fashionable-ly skilled ☠️) sorry for typing so long I could go on and on but I think in short I won’t be outgrowing Sanrio anytime soon 🥰🫶😉💕 btw love your channel and your personality!! ❤ (just subscribed)

Unfortunately I've lived in a family who supported stereotyping(Still do). Just because I liked something, I was discriminated and bullied. That's why throughout my entire life I keep my interests secret and all to myself. I was just screaming in purgetory wanting to get out. They even say boys and girls can't be together. I was discluded by many girls in my family. I did not let this bring me down. I have friends, some are girls and I'm proud for the friends I have and we unite like a family of our own against facists and sexists.

For some reason back in the old days I used to not be a huge fan of sanrio but looking at information I have now become one of a fan of that content I especially like batiz maru and hangydon no matter if it’s for girls or not you can enjoy sanrio. Also your videos are amazing keep up the good work for more sanrio content. Also here’s a suggestion maybe you can do a history of there theme parks but you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to.
thx for this video
Not big on Sanrio, but I did buy plushies of Kuromi and My Melody since I like the aesthetic. I work, pay rent and utilities. I pay for food. I do my own thing, and I care not what other strangers think. What adults do is their own business. Given how popular Sanrio has gotten over here in the States, it's not surprising that males are getting into it as well.
34 year old straight man, and I bought my first cinnamoroll hat from comic con earlier this year ✌🏻
I just found your channel! Great inspiration and at a great time XD im getting rid of all the macabre decor and making it more kawaii! feels like im "cleaning" my depression kkk. it feels great and your video just helped me a lot, specially being a trans girl! Thanks darling!
Well… I have a daughter we love Sanrio. DGAF, I wear HK and Sanrio all the time.
Wait, so does this mean that men can like cute things like Sanrio characters without automatically having the need to change their gender to female? Wow! If it could only apply in real life 😮

I fell in love with Sanrio thanks to the Sanrio boys, for which I will always be grateful to this anime. and it also helped me overcome age-related stereotypes, I am now 28 years old and I know that loving cute things is normal and I have nothing to be afraid or embarrassed
Saniro is for everyone and my brother likes gudetama while I like cinnamoroll so it dumb why people get bully for that

My friend is male and he loves Sanrio. His favorites is Bad Badtz Maru and Kuromi
It's interesting to see to be honest. I'm a man and I enjoy cute stuff because it's appealing to the eye. When browsing the Sanrio shop sadly there's not much I could get without raising eyebrows. Kuromi keychain at most. Everything else is a bit too saccharine for a man to buy honestly but that's to be expected, we are not really the target audience.
Yes !!. But i still worried when i shop for sanrio merch
I'm a man too, and I Adore, sanrio characters, specifically, in this order those are my Absolute favorites: Cinnamoroll Moppu Hanamaruobake Pochacco Keroppi LLOROMANNIC kabukinyantaro Cogimyun As for sub characters I especially love cogimyon, the brother of cogimyun, milk, and the Seal friend of Moppu
Omg the kuromi punt i need to know who made it
SHOW BY ROCK!!also have many male characters and fans love them! I think Uraragi is everyone's favorite lol even male fans also love him
Thanks I’ll tell my parents sooner or later
I'm 8 I looked it up sanrio is for every age and gender
always loved kuromi but my mom and dad always had that idea of me not supossed to like " girly " characthers and things and that's why i always wanted to buy a kuromi flanel longsleeve at the mall wich i don't buy because i fear getting rejected or talked shit on by my incle dad or cousins ,but this video gave me some courage so I've decided it I'm buying that longslevee no mather i get insulted at school

Sanrio is for everyone not just girls
My boyfriend likes pom purin and badtz maru :)
ENG: honestly, its ok if dont like something or but make bulling to ppl just bc of she//he likes that "doesnt comfort ur gender" is bad, things is not based on ur gender for example: ima a girl that i also like boy things, there also girls that like boys stuff and boys that like girls stuff, we need not to jugde ppl that like things that looks "weird for our gender" ESP: honestamente, esta bien si no te gusta algo pero haciendo bulling por algo khe algo te gusta y "no este en tus gustos basado en tu genero" no esta bien, las cosas no esta depende de tu genero por ejemplo: yo siendo genero de mujer tambien me gusta cosas de hombres. hay mujeres khe le gusta cosas de hombres y hombres khe le gusta cosas de mujeres, nosotros no temeos khe jusgar personas khe le gusta cosas khe son "raras segun nuestro genero"
