Bisuke-tan

Bisuke-tan (ビスケたん), also known as Biscuit-tan,¹⁾ is an AA character and a gijinka of KFC's biscuit. She was created on March 26, 2002 within an off-topic thread about said biscuits, that somehow ended up on the adult-oriented /ascii2d/ in the BBSPink section of 2channel.²⁾

Her appearance includes a biscuit head accessory, short blue hair, a white dress, and shimapan (blue-white striped panties). It would be credited as the inspiration for the Gijinka Boom which led to OS-tans, Nijiura Maids, etc. She also notably appeared in the Netrun-mon OVA.

¹⁾

A 'biscuit' (ビスケット, bisuketto) is also called a 'bisuke' (ビスケ) in Japanese.

³⁾

The 'surströmming' is called a 'shūrusutoremingu' (シュールストレミング) in Japanese. I have decided to include an extra 's', making it 'Surs-tan', since it flows better and won't be confused with a leather brand.

⁴⁾

If you've never seen a can of surströmming, it's a fermented, lightly salted, Baltic herring that will emit a strong and putrid brine smell when you open it, so it's often recommended that you open the can outdoors or underwater, away from the dining area. The brine also makes the can look pressurized, thus the breasts.
