Technical details

Windows 97 was one of the working names for Windows 98 before it was released. Despite there already being a Windows 98-tan (and 98SE-tan), a Windows 97-tan design exists.

Character details

Windows 97-tan is represented as a little girl with brown hair put in buns on each side with braided pigtails in front, her bun covers decorated by tassels in the colors of the Windows logo, her shirt is a red+white traditional Chinese-style shirt over a navy blue swimsuit and adorned with a Windows logo brooch on the collar. She has the kanji for 97 on her forehead. A running gag today in the era of Windows 7 is having 97-tan cover up the kanji on her forehead except for the 7 and hoping to pass herself off as a Windows 7-tan.

She is cheerful and energetic but has a Napoleon complex (insecurity about her short stature, tries to compensate for it) and dislikes that she is completely flat, greatly envying Windows XP MediaCenter Edition-tan and her assets.
