Have you seen Touka or Sofa's pics at WF? Touka is 6' iirc and is the same height as pretty much every japanese kigu they took a pic with. Sofa is smol, like 168cm I think, and look even smol near some people.

Japanese males have grown tall lately, especially younger ones. RINS and Sigma are both larger shells than GKO iirc, that's why GKO is increasing the size of his later masks.

Rant over: here's the math. Because I was fucking tall I developed a way to estimate the ideal kigu size kind of thing so I could order my mask (kinda why I avoided GKO when I ordered Haruhi because I knew it'd look bad as he didn't have many shells available in 2013).

You get your height, add 5cm and divide by 6.5. That should give a rough estimate if the mask will look good on your body or not. Any mask that is around 2cm in difference in height will look okay on you if it matches the number the equation did.

Okay: why those numbers?

5cm added to your height is the projected height of your character. When you wear the mask you'll have roughly 5cm of top padding with hair as the final height of the character.

6.5 is the default head-to-body ratio of female anime characters. You wanna keep this proportion or be a bit below it. 6~6.5 is where it should sit to look okay (depends if yer going for loli or something).

This should give you a framework for what maker to pick.

And RTPS makes you look like a bobblehead imo because they oversize a lot. Then again Cici will blame on something something I'm not a maker so what do I know.

Anyway, I'm attaching another pic for you to judge by yourself, some people say I'm a pinhead so I should jump off a bridge, others say I'm fine. Idk, I think I'm okay, just require some posing and angling (but that's like literally every mask and if people are telling you that doesn't, they don't know shit).

ps: my waist and bodyframe kinda pisses me off a bit, i need to lose more weight orz. 10kg less wouldnt hurt.
