Hello Kitty Scooter Helmet
Old nightmares are coming back to haunt me now that we have returned to Japan. I mentioned awhile back that my wife was thinking about getting a Hello Kitty scooter for errands around the house, but that potentially disastrous Hello Kitty Hell situation was forgotten when we moved to the US. Now that we’re back in Japan, the Hello Kitty scooter nightmare is once again coming closer to reality. I didn’t realize how close, however, until a package arrived in the mail today,
Although we don’t have a scooter yet, we do have a brand new shiny Hello Kitty scooter helmet:
Having lived in Hello Kitty Hell as long as I have, I expect things to be bad to some degree. The thought of riding a Hello Kitty scooter is just downright embarrassing, but to be wearing a Hello Kitty Helmet on top of that is a shame that pretty much ranks up there with the worst Hello Kitty Hell has had to offer thus far (although I never underestimate that there is something Hello Kitty out there that could make it worse). With the Helmet already purchased, it’s only a matter of time before that scooter ends up outside our place and Hello Kitty Hell will reach yet another whole new level…

OMG my husband and I have been laughing for HOURS reading your blog! I too am a HK freak. After reading this my husband is thinking that maybe I am not THAT crazy about HK!!!! Of course I have a motorcycle and I HAVE to have the helmet…please tell me it is not only found in Japan!!! I also have the HK Fender guitar in Black…plays like $%#@ but I always get compliments from guys and gals when I am on stage cuz everybody LOVES HK!!! Well I am off to get HK angel/devil tattoos on both my shoulders… just so I can get a little help from time to time from HK.

You must really love your wife to tolerate this insanity!

Hello Kitty Hell (I don’t know your name?) I’m so sorry, I know this is supposed to be your escape, but when you post such great stuff, how can we NOT be all over it?

This sounds like a Hello Kitty fanatic pretending to be a husband because a husband would not post something like that. If I am wrong (doubtful), I am doing you a favor by not telling - give in this time and it will only get worse. I speak from experience. Either way, welcome to my Hello Kitty Hell

Hi…this is David’s wife. Can you please tell us where you acquired the helmet? I’m NOT a Hello Kitty nut on ANY SCALE. I think an HK Scooter is a bit overboard. I just want something different here in Michigan. The only other Hello Kitty item I have owned in my 36 years is a mousepad I got at Best Buy last year. And I do not consider adding a helmet the beginning of a treasure trove of HK stuff. Everything should be in moderation….
I have no intention of taking my husband through “Hello Kitty Hell” so to speak. I’m sorry your wife is driving you nuts though. But seriously, will you please tell me where I can get one? I would greatly appreciate the information. Perhaps the cost won’t justify it but I would like to make up my own mind.
Thanks!

Hi,
It is just not nice to tease people and i know you are going to mad…
But I found the helmet.
It comes in 3 colors - white, pink, and blue. It is a youth helmet and measures 53-55cm, so i am not sure it will fit. The price is about $191 usd. The catch is, is that you have to find someone who knows japanese to order it for you - because I could only find it on poorly translated japanese websites. Here is the site. good luck. If you find a translator, can you let me know? I am trying to order one too!

We (as a family) ride sport bikes. I had to search every nook and cranny of the internet to find a PINK full face helmet for our daughter. Having a Hello Kitty helmet would be a great find. So I also ask the question of the post……where did you aquire this helmet? thx!

[…] a 6 foot 3 inch foreigner riding around in Japan on this with a Hello Kitty helmet seems like a good excuse for the police to shoot me as a suspected terrorist (I mean, seriously, […]
