Hello Kitty won in 2019; that was the last time Cinnamoroll didn’t rank first. Miyuki Okumura designed the characters for the series by Sanrio, which eventually evolved into two side stories: Cinnamoangels and Lloromannic. Viz Media licensed the original manga as Fluffy, Fluffy Cinnamoroll and describes the plot of the first volume as:
Oh no! Milk has disappeared through a mysterious door and only Cinnamoroll can save him! Will he find the courage to help his friend and still make it back to Café Cinnamon in time for tea?
The character was also the star of the 2007 movie Cinnamon the Movie by studio MADHOUSE and the short web anime Cinnamon no Parade, which was the 10th-anniversary project. In addition to animated works, Kadokawa released a novel titled Cinnamoroll: Cinnamon’s Wonderland Trip written by Utako Yoshino and illustrated by Yuki Kiriga.
