Mashamaro the MP3 Rabbit floats, asleep, over the meadows she blackens. Fields of psychic energy erupt like solar flares from her bloated head, which is available in pearl white, sky blue and soft pink. Meat creatures that wander too close simply pop: Mashamaro’s hum is her world’s vibration, the essence of its fear.

I just wonder what “Mokgeolyihyeong Earphones” are.
Tri-dots evoke Tachikoma!
Mokgeoyihyeong” is a very awkwardly spelled transliteration of 목거리형, which means “necklace-style”
I keep thinking I want some, but then I remember that I live in Fred Sanford’s house.
Mashimaro looks like he took a head shot and is lying peacefully in the meadow, dead, rather than guarding it.
Judging from the picture above, it’s most likely that Mashimaro is either pooping or getting ready for a rectal exam. I don’t say that to be snide; I really mean that based on what the Mashimaro character’s personality is supposed to be.
Actually spelled “Mashimaro” (a corruption of “marshmallow”), Mashimaro is a Korean character that is found stuck to pencil cases, windshields, backpacks…yeah, pretty much anything. It’s the kind of ubiquitous image that “Hello Kitty” is.
However, there are a few flash animation webtoons out there that make clear he’s not as soft and cuddly (or well-mannered) as his puffy white image might suggest.
Watch the following videos to get a glimpse into Mashimaro’s (and perhaps Korea’s) psyche:
