Description No, I don’t HATE Danbo, but his/her/it’s face is just that easy to mock.

For those of us who've wondered about the origins of the infamous DANBO (myself included),I found out the original creator is Kiyohiko Azuma who did a manga called Yotsuba&!. Dando was introduced in Chap. 28 and was later on commissioned by Amazon Japan. Kiyohiko Azuma is also the creator of the manga Azumanga Daioh.

So alas, mystery solved!

Sure thing. When you view a piece of art you'll find it's Thumbnail code towards the right of your screen. Copy and paste the code into the section where you're free to type stuff when setting up your ID. Hope that makes sense.

Yotsuba and Danbo are awesome, I don't see why people hate them.

auxeru In reply to crystalfauna [2012-05-31 21:11:41 +0000 UTC]

It's not the characters that people hated, it was the consent flood of photos that plague the frontpage at one point. Most people didn't know who Yotsuba was so the actual manga got pushed in the background while that "box toy" took center stage. It was a shame cuz I thought Yotsuba was the more interesting character.

Oh I see. I started reading her manga a LONG time ago, I never payed attention to the so called "box toy" until he came out. I see what you mean now lol.

His face was easy to mock so it was fun marking him up. I don't really hate Danbo; I just wasn't a fan of the trend he started a while back. He was making the frontpage practically every day more than once and it got annoying. No one even gives thought to where he originated from, he was just that "little box toy". It was becoming apparent the some where just buying him to get attention on the site and it seemed to get out of hand for a while.

ox0Mickah0xo In reply to auxeru [2012-05-28 05:44:03 +0000 UTC]

Well that box toy is sort of like Hello kitty to another asian chick down the block, Either people like him because his face is simple however witch that simplness you can youse that advantage to take a bold photograph. All you need it him, and just a background, like magic lol. I understand wat your saying tho, I feel the same with Jusin beiber >.<

Beiber was another thing I didn't get. A prepubescent boy singing about love and relationships is just weird to me. He's older now but the craze still feels odd.

I never really liked his music :/ I though he was a girl when I first heard his song Baby -_-. I respect him for being big and succesful n stuff. But I think girls just Like to Say I love etc, just cuz they dont wanna be left out with their buddies most of the time.

Considering where he came from, it's a huge step up. Being on welfare is no picnic so it's admirable for a child to be able to do what he has done for his family. But the girls are a different story. Peer pressure can be powerful and some of them don't even know their being affected.

That little guy has taken over this site. Even the people who take pics of the Danbo toy don't say anything about Yotsuba. Maybe they don't even know. It's sad that an entire manga gets overlooked over the toy.

auxeru In reply to Amald98 [2011-08-06 03:02:41 +0000 UTC]

I'm actually the opposite. You haven't been here that long but it's actually a fandom to take photos of the Danbo toy. It became a cheap way to get pageviews because, in ALL honestly, this site is full of members who are complete suckers for "cute things". I thought Yotsuba was more appealing but nobody knows about her. The entire manga got upstaged by the pics of the "mysterious robot" that no one knows the origins from . At one point Danbo was making the frontpage everyday and it got annoying. I just mock the fandom, not Danbo itself. Danbo's eyes and month made it so easy to poke fun and I couldn't resist.

Same here. I thought it was cute the first time I saw it, but when I saw a bunch of other people jumping on that bandwagon it just felt redundant.
