Nice eye candy, but a little over the top. She usually does her best to look like a CGI anime doll, as in this video - 

 

WARNING - if you watch these videos, YouTube will throw a lot  more at you.

Google translates her name as "Biting cat".

If you look closely enough, you can see subtle little differences between the two images

“Sushan,” the “Ice Cream” in the Tang Dynasty

Developed during the Tang Dynasty, the first food to resemble what we might think of as ice cream was known as “sushan(酥山),” or “crispy mountain.”

China’s Hottest Social Media Accessory Is Best Served Cold
From museums to universities, seemingly every institution is launching their own social media-friendly ice cream bars.

Chinese monarchs began experimenting with frozen rice and dairy products as early as 3,000 years ago. In those days, however, most summertime delicacies took the form of chilled drinks, usually a mix of fresh fruit with ice. The first food to resemble what we might think of as ice cream was known as the “crispy mountain.” Developed during the Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907), the snack was made by heating a crisped dairy product almost to its melting point, then drizzling it onto a plate in the shape of a mountain and freezing it in ice.

Although popular among the nobility, the difficulty of storing ice made these treats prohibitively expensive for most Chinese. It wasn’t until the Song Dynasty (960-1279) that commoners began to have access to chilled products. In a 12th century memoir, the author records a wide variety of chilled treats, including marinated plum water, coconut wine, and kumquat snow bubbles. It was also during this time that ice porridge, osmanthus shaved ice, and milk ice cheese became increasingly popular. Marco Polo himself made note of “milk ice,” a slushy mix of jam and milk that melted in the mouth.

Legend has it that the explorer brought the recipe for this treat home with him to Italy, and that Catherine de Medici took it to France in 1533 when she married Henry II. In the 1600s, England’s King Charles I hired a French chef who knew how to make ice cream; by the end of the century, the concoction was served in cafes and on aristocrats’ tables across Europe and the North American colonies.

Although the recipe was refined and altered over the years, it resembled the desserts popular in Marco Polo’s day in at least one respect: With no way to preserve the ice, it could only be made in small batches on-demand.
