LINE is a free messaging,VoIP, and social networking application developed byLine Corporation, for mobile devices and personal computers. As well as messaging, the LINE application provides a variety of features integrated into it, such as "official channels" - which provide means for companies such asNintendo to provide regular updates to users,[2] a digital wallet service ("LINE Pay"), a taxi service ("LINE Taxi"), a food delivery service ("LINE Wow"), a service to find and contact doctors ("LINE Doctor"), games, and more.[3] LINE is popular to the point of ubiquity in Japan, and so it and itsoriginal characters are very present in its popular culture. The application is also highly popular in Taiwan and Thailand.[4]

Stickers

The LINE application features an online shop where users can purchase sets of virtual "stickers" that can be used in the messaging service, sent as their own messages, as well as being usable in some other applications. These stickers feature original characters known asLine Friends, as well as various licensed characters from various elements of popular culture such as anime, manga, and video games, including variousNintendo franchises, such asSplatoon.[5] It is possible for users of LINE to sell their own original stickers on the platform, and receive revenue. Stickers sent on LINE can have animations and sound, with them playing when the sticker is received, and when one is tapped on - usually the animations would not loop.

The first set ofSplatoon-themed LINE stickers was released in 2015, and was free up to 26th October, for anyone that friendedToad's Nintendo account. It includes 8 stickers and is themed afterthe first game. These were region-locked to Japan and mostly featured Japanese text.[6]
