Okay, maybe I was wrong then about those being from ARIB. I used to use an old gara-kei too not further than a few years ago (I think it was 2012), and indeed, there were some han emojis on mobile too.
- kalleboo 10y agoEverything is further muddied by the fact that the three operators all had incompatible emoji sets, all squirreled away in unused parts of Shift-JIS. IIRC, first docomo launched emoji, then someone else came out with "look we have animated emoji!", then the next company had to launch multicolor emoji, "oh but now OUR new model has an extra 150 emoji!" I'm sure some of the ones that ended up in Unicode came from ARIB, but others were cobbled together from the operator sets.
