Hello #Fediverse, here’s today’s daily OS-tan!
This one is of Mutsumi Madobe, a lesser-known member of the Madobe family and a personification of Windows Vista! Mutsumi is portrayed as the older sister of Nanami Madobe who represents Windows 7, though her origins could be seen as quite unique compared to other OS-tans.
Mutsumi first appeared through tweets made from Nanami’s Twitter account beginning on October 3, 2009. While she was never officially used for promotional campaigns, she did show up in some Madobe Family Trees included with official merchandise. On special occasions like April Fool’s Day 2010, she “took over” tweeting duties, using the hashtag #6me.
Unlike Nanami she has no official artwork but on April 20, 2010 the artist Sappappa designed an unofficial interpretation of her based on her tweets. This fan-made depiction gained enough popularity to inspire derivative artwork.
Mutsumi’s design and character reflect her connection to Vista. She’s a little taller than Nanami and is often noted for her larger bust, perhaps showing Vista’s higher memory demands compared to Windows 7 (the same case with XP Pro-tan). She loves eating gyudon and prefers to skip outdated software in favor of new releases: a subtle nod to the compatibility struggles that Vista faced during its time.
There was even a joke site made for her you can find here: http://www.t1500.com/april/2014/
