Moezilla refers to a family of personification characters of several Internet-related applications, which mostly relates to Mozilla. In Japanese, the word "Moe" is used to refer to cute girls. Moezilla are similar to OS-tans, but they do not originate from the Futaba Channel. Moezilla-gumi is a Japanese project that was founded with the aim of personifying Mozilla related applications. Doujin debut was made at the 69th Comic Market in Japan in 2005. The project name is a play on , which is a Mozilla community in Japan. The doujin title "Don't touch the red panda!" was a play on a book about Firefox titled "Don't Click on the Blue E!" Firefox-ko Firefox-ko is a personification of the browser Mozilla Firefox, who is usually portrayed as a Japanese fox spirit in miko attire by most fan-artists, although the official Mozilla Brand FAQ notes that "Firefox" is also known as the common name for the red panda. Her color set and design resemble that of the Firefox logo. There are many variations of her design, usually with slight variations in her hair colour and her outfit. Her ears somewhat change from design to design as well, but essentially, she is pictured a fox-girl with long red/orange hair, with fox ears and a bushy tail. A character named Hana from an Ukagaka type desktop mascot program is often mistaken for Firefox-ko when pictures appear on English-language imageboard sites, but she is not associated with the OS-tans. Hana is usually distinguishable by her preferred outfit, a navy-blue sailor fuku. Thunderbird-ko Thunderbird-ko is a personification of the mail and news client Mozilla Thunderbird. She is the best friend of Firefox-ko. She dresses like a telephone operator, carries a keyboard/monitor, and sometimes holds a letter in her hands. Similar to Firefox-ko, her color set and design resemble that of the Thunderbird logo. SeaMonkey-ko SeaMonkey-ko is the personification of SeaMonkey. Nvu onee-san Nvu onee-san is the personification of Nvu. The "onee-san" part of her name means "big sister."
