Welcome to the Github repo for Kig.wiki
Bishoujo Kigurumi, Kigurumi (着ぐるみ), or Kig/Kigu for even shorter is a mask oriented form of cosplay. Kigurumi typically combines both an anime styled mask with a type of zentai worn underneath, a Hadatai or Hada for short. Through strategic shapewear and padding wearers seek to transform themselves into their ideal of the represented character.
- A community resource that no one person owns, that is free as in freedom not free as in free beer. Libre, not gratis
- A site that provides those interested in Kigurumi with a spectrum of knowledge so they may best be equiped to make decisions
- A community
- Any one individual's soapbox, the more contributors there are the further we can strive towards this
- An advertising spot for makers, merchants, etc
- A copy/paste of other kigurumi resources
tldr: inactivity and out of date info on various kigurumi resources, biases on many of said resources, or otherwise painting of various matters as black and white. Kigurumi is a bespoke hobby made by artesians both commercial and DIY, it is not a mass produced factory good, quality is not such a binary matter. Much like you would consider certain artists for certain art commisions based on their unique style, there is nuance to why you may want to go with one maker or the other as per the vision you have of your kigurumi. There rarely are perfect answers, only informed or uninformed decisions.
