Character Details
Nanami Madobe is the unofficial mascot representing the Windows 7 operating system made by Microsoft. Although it was largely believed that Nanami was official, it was revealed later on that she was designed by artist Wakaba and made by Windows 7 Mania (owned by Techno Alliance Corp). However, her creation led to the first official Microsoft OS-tans, Hikaru Aizawa and the Bing girls.
Appearance
Nanami is depicted as a 15 or so year old girl, with a blue bob cut similar to Windows 2000's and Windows 98's, a schoolgirl-like outfit with the front of the vest shaped into a "7", a rainbow broach in the middle of a bow (possibly being a blended representation of the Windows Logo) and a hairband with a 4-leafed clover shaped pin on it in the colours of the Windows logo. Possibly referencing her increased stability and decreased dependence on RAM, she has a smaller chest than her predecessor, Vista.
Merchandise
 | “Awa! I’m not ready yet!” Just like GNU Hurd, this article is a work in progress. Things are liable to change, and no information is guaranteed complete. |
Nanami was a part of a Windows theme complete with images and audio voiced by singer and voice actress, Mizuki Nana, and was released with the first 7777 copies of Windows 7 Ultimate in Japan.
There is also an album with her and her relatives singing.
