Before the picture had its debut in the Japanese internet culture, it was first used as a chain letter that would say "この画像を1時間以内にほかの掲示板に①個貼らないと年末に恐ろしいことがおこります。画像を貼らずに亡くなった人も本当にいます" (If you don't post this image on another imageboard within one hour, something terrible will happen at the end of the year.

Japanese netizens claim that the image began to circulate on the internet in mid-2004 when imageboards such as 2ch started to grow even more after the infamous [[wikipedia:Neomugi incident|Neomugi incident]] happened. However, it was only recognized when a 2ch anonymous user made a thread in 2007 saying "この子すごい怖いんだがお前らの力で何とかかわいくさせてやってくれ" (This dude is scary as fuck so you guys have to somehow use your power to try to make it look cute!), and then the thread started to fill with the same picture but edited and over-shopped to make it look "cuter". The image was also referred to by Japanese netizens as "可愛くさせての画像", meaning "cute image", or "可愛く", meaning "cute". After researching the image, it was found that it was originally a doll with unkempt hair and broken arms, which was found through the logs of Futaba Channel.<ref name="thetuburo" />
