Now Viewing: 2k-tanTag type: Character 2K-tan is a Nijiura/Futaba Channel net character, an OS-tan. She is the female personification of the Windows 2000 computer operating system. 2K-tan was one of the first characters created. A few variants exist, but the most common is 2K-tan, the personification for Windows 2000 Professional. She is typically drawn as an intelligent, professional, reserved-looking woman with short blue_hair, glasses, and hairclips that resemble cat ears flanking a small white bonnet or ruffle, similar to a maid_headdress that shows the Windows logo. The cat ear-shaped hairclips are a pun: "2K" in Japanese is "Ni-Ke", the meowing sound in Japanese is "nya", so she is also known as "Nya-ke". Her outfit resembles a swimsuit/leotard suggesting the Windows logo colors. She wears a blue long coat and blue thighhighs. This is thought to reflect the opinion that Windows 2000 is the most stable, dependable, and balanced system. She often acts like the older sister or dependable woman among the Windows-tans and is one of the domain controllers for this reason. In addition, because of the greater stability of Win2K compared with WinMe (which was released around the same time), 2K-tan is often described as a guardian of Me-tan (similar to 2K-kun being regarded as a guardian of Me-kun). An alternate design, playing on the punny name of "Nya-ke" shows 2K-tan having real cat ears and a tail (instead of mechanical cat ear-shaped hair clips), matching her swimsuit, gloves and boots. pixiv tags: 2k, ２ｋ From ostan-collections.net/wiki/index.php/Windows_2000 See also: OS-tan 2K-kun Me-tan 95-tan 98-tan 98se-tan XP-tan Pizza-tan Nijiura_Maids Other Wiki Information Last updated: 05/06/16 3:47 AM by surveyork This entry is not locked and you can edit it as you see fit. |
