Wikipedia: Wikipe-tan

This is really… unexpected.

For Wikipedia to have an anime mascot just like the OS-tans..?

I guess everyone and everything has an anime counterpart these days.

Heung Ying Ching 向映晴 is the cosplayer behind this adorable Wikipe-tan. She is a cosplayer from Hong Kong, and you’ll find more of her cosplays in her blog.

Actually, her costume reminds me of Yuzuki from Chobits. I guess the dark tights, full knee-length skirt, white apron, and white ribbon did it for me. The pigtails is fairly similar too, but she still stands as Wikipe-tan to me. Thanks 映晴!
