==Etymology==
The word {{tp|monsuta}} is derived from {{w|Japanese}} {{lang|ja|{{wikt|モンスター}}}} (''{{lang|ja-Latn|monsutā}}''), itself from English ''monster''. It was coined by {{tok|[[jan Sonja]]}} in 2009, but it was abandoned shortly after.{{citation needed}}
The word always saw some use among a minority of speakers. However, for a long time the word {{tp|monsuta}} was underused and not well defined. This changed in the late 2010s and early 2020s, when the word became popular and certain trends emerged among its users.
