Chihiro Murasaki is a not so popular Flipnote creator. Her flipnotes consist of many Japanese things. She is 15 years old, and her birthdate is August 25, 1997. She has only 100 fans. She started using Flipnote Hatena on December 13, 2010. She received her DSi as a reward of straight A's on November 17, 2010 but ignored Flipnote Hatena until almost a month later. The first flipnotes of Chihiros work were drawings of Studio Ghibli characters such as Totoro from My Neighbor Totoro and Ponyo from Ponyo, all characters created by the famous Hayao Miyazaki. She also posted flipnotes of the songs Good Life by Kanye West, Determinate by Lemonade Mouth, and Freak The Freak Out by Victoria Justice "I saw a super cool flipnote with Japanese anime and ever since I saw it I really wanted to learn how to draw anime." Chihiro said She practiced drawing anime on paper and soon enough, she got better at drawing anime on her DSi. Her first flipnote that got into the "Most Popular" was "JapanFan's nyan cat" which consisted of Hello Kitty. She made many remakes of her Hello Kitty Nyan Cat but none got as popular.

Her favorite Hatena friends are:ジャパン●ファンYinパンダヒーローRachel™リン☆ Caleb \ashley/(A Japan user.)カナエなんだぜっ！(A Japan user.) Kuro Nekoけいちゃん モカchihiro★(A Japan user.) Ian(A European/Oceana user.) SimpleJP(A Japan user.)

She hides her obsession with the country Japan because many have made fun of her for being half Japanese and loving Japan.

She has been "in love" with Japanese culture for 10 years. She was only 6 when she "fell in love" with Japan.

Many of her friends at school claim her to be "Japans number one fan". "I don't mind my friends saying that im Japans number one fan, but my friend Japan fan on Hatena seems to like Japan too and I know she would not be too pleased if I told her that my friends at school say that."

When the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, she was deeply worried for her family and friends who lived on the East coast of Japan. Sadly, some of her family members and friends passed away in the disaster.

On Hatena, However, she posted many "Pray for Japan" flipnotes.

"I really care for Japan, If Japan were to one day disappear...I don't know what I would do. Japan is my life, forever and always."

The disasters in Japan happened on the same day as CMEA Festival, a musical festival for band classes in California.

"I was very sad the whole time, I even cried a few times when I was at CMEA festival, I didn't want to be at CMEA festival, I wanted to be in Japan helping others."

Later on, Chihiro started a fundraiser by selling handmade origami cranes with her friends. Together, they made $125.00.

She recently took a trip to Japan and says:"I don't want to leave! Japan is very beautiful! Anyone should get a chance to come to Japan!"

Chihiro also dreams of being a famous dancer/singer in Japan. Even though she was given the chance of being a big pop star in Japan when she visited Shinjuku,Tokyo,Japan, and danced to the song Melody Line by Hatsune Miku; her father said no to the deal.
