# Brazilian Sadako > Brazilian Sadako is a 2024 fan art trend reimagining The Ring's ghost as a Brazilian woman in denim shorts, yellow crop top, and flag imagery, emerging from the earlier Brazilian Miku meme. Brazilian Sadako is a fan art trend that reimagines Sadako, the ghost from *The Ring*, as a young Brazilian woman wearing denim shorts and a yellow crop top with the flag of Brazil. The trend kicked off in late October 2024 on Twitter/X, growing out of the earlier "Brazilian Miku" trend, and quickly picked up tens of thousands of likes across multiple artists and cosplayers[2]. ## Origin The trend emerged from the broader wave of "Brazilian [character]" redesigns that started with the Brazilian Miku trend in Fall 2024[2]. In late October 2024, Twitter artist Lughost posted what appears to be the earliest known Brazilian Sadako fan art[2]. The timing lined up with Halloween, making the horror-themed character a natural fit for the season[1]. - **Platform:** Twitter / X - **Creator:** Lughost (earliest known fan art), @K0rnaQ (viral TV escape fan art) - **Date:** 2024 ## Overview Brazilian Sadako takes the iconic horror figure from the Japanese *Ring* franchise and gives her a distinctly Brazilian makeover. Instead of Sadako's traditional white dress and pale skin, the redesign features a tanned young woman with dark circles around her eyes and long black hair, dressed in denim shorts with the thong sticking out and a yellow crop top featuring Brazil's flag[2]. The character still keeps Sadako's signature move of crawling out of television sets, but with a laid-back Brazilian twist, sometimes striking relaxed poses or holding a drink[2]. ## How It Spread The concept caught fire quickly on Twitter/X. On the same day Lughost's art went up, Twitter user @K0rnaQ posted their own fan art showing Brazilian Sadako escaping from a television set, which pulled in over 60,000 likes within three weeks[2]. On October 21st, 2024, user @elixserrsfw took things into the real world by posting a photo of herself dressed as Brazilian Sadako, racking up more than 78,000 likes in three weeks[2]. The next day, October 22nd, @Waly_XOX posted a fan art that put a comedic spin on the concept, depicting Brazilian Sadako doing her signature TV crawl but in a relaxed pose while holding a beverage. That post collected over 42,000 likes in three weeks[2]. Other artists on DeviantArt also picked up the concept, with creator Tenjosan posting a Brazilian Sadako piece as a Halloween special[1]. ## How to Use Brazilian Sadako art typically follows a few conventions: - The character is drawn as a tanned woman with dark eye circles and long black hair - She wears denim shorts (often with a visible thong waistband) and a yellow crop top with Brazil's flag - The TV crawl scene from *The Ring* is a common setup, often played for comedy - Artists frequently add a casual Brazilian vibe, like holding tropical drinks or striking relaxed poses - Cosplay versions follow the same outfit formula The format works best around Halloween or as part of broader "Brazilian [character]" redesign trends. ## Cultural Impact Brazilian Sadako is part of a larger pattern where internet artists reimagine well-known characters with Brazilian aesthetics. The "Brazilian Miku" trend from earlier in Fall 2024 laid the groundwork, and Sadako's horror roots made her a perfect candidate for Halloween-timed redesigns[2]. The trend's rapid spread across fan art and cosplay showed how quickly character redesign memes can move when they hit at the right cultural moment. ## Fun Facts - The earliest cosplay post by @elixserrsfw got more engagement (78,000+ likes) than any of the drawn fan art versions[2]. - Brazilian Sadako appeared just weeks after the Brazilian Miku trend, following the same "Brazilianize a famous character" formula[2]. - Tenjosan, who posted a version on DeviantArt, also sells Brazilian Sadako merchandise through RedBubble[1]. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Brazilian Sadako?
