# Moetron Moetron, known in Japan as KimeKona, is a community-made anime chimera character stitched together from features of various moe girls, built around a Konata Izumi template. She started on Futaba Channel's img board in late 2009 as trolling of a Lucky Star harasser, then got renamed Moetron when 4chan's /a/ board adopted her on May 7th, 2010. ## Overview Moetron is a fictional anime girl assembled from parts of many other moe characters, using Konata Izumi from Lucky Star as the base template[1]. Japanese users call her KimeKona (キメこな), an abbreviation of Kimee Konata (きめぇこなた, "Creepy Konata") or Kimera Konata (キメラこなた, "Chimera Konata")[1]. Her design piles on mismatched eyes, hair, and outfit pieces, and artwork often shows visible stitching on her body to hint at the parts she was pieced together from[3]. Fans describe her as having a dissociative personality that flips between tsundere, kuudere, and yandere modes in the same scene[3]. Her canon birthday is May 7th, the date she first landed on the English-speaking web[3]. The character sits between "abomination" and pure moeblob, and both readings are part of the joke. ## How It Spread Early threads on /a/ tended to feature just the raw template image and initially went nowhere. That changed once anons began posting original fan-art of the character, at which point she got a real foothold on the board[3]. May 7th became her recognized birthday, and /a/ still runs anniversary threads for her every year; a sixth-birthday thread from 2016 was archived on yuki.la[5]. From imageboards she moved onto general art platforms. Pixiv hosts a long tag history for both キメこな and the KonaCora exploitable series, tracking Japanese fan-art of the character[6]. DeviantArt and Tumblr picked her up as well, giving Western artists a place to post their own edits[3]. She never broke out into mainstream meme circles the way other anime-derived characters did, but she stuck around inside anime imageboard culture as a recurring inside joke. ## How to Use Moetron art typically starts from the Konata Izumi base pose and swaps in features from other anime characters: one eye from one show, hair from another, an outfit piece from a third[6]. A common convention is to leave visible stitching or seams between the parts, selling the chimera premise[3]. Personality writing often flips between tsundere, kuudere, and yandere within the same scene to play up the dissociative gag[3]. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Moetron?
