The application of visual customization based on a popular Japanese manga series, Tokyo Ghoul, to the Android operating system allows users to personalize the aesthetic appearance of their mobile devices. This typically involves modifications to the wallpaper, icons, and potentially system sounds, reflecting elements and characters from the source material. An example would be changing the default Android launcher’s icon set to icons styled after the masks worn by the characters in the series.
Such personalization provides users with a heightened sense of connection to the fictional universe and allows them to express their fandom through their devices. This form of digital expression has a historical context rooted in the early days of computing, where users sought to modify and personalize their operating systems through custom skins and modifications. The availability of these customizations reflects a broader trend in consumer electronics towards personalization and individual expression.
