[edit] Trivia
- Bōkun Habanero is the focus of a popular Japanese meme that started on the popular Japanese bbs 2chan. The meme revolves around a anthropomorphic caricature based on Bōkun Habanero and its mascot. The caricature, Habanero-tan, is of a young, naive girl in a red dress who looks vaguely like a humanoid Habanero pepper.
