Ten Questions with Kijani (2024) - Fursuiting, Lion Fursona, Kenya, Mascots, Anthrocon!
Yay new channel content! Last month I asked fans to send me questions via various social media channels (Facebook, Twitter/X and Bluesky), and I received a whole bunch of them!

I hope you enjoy my answers and the supplemental video clips and photos, and that you learn something new about me!

WORST LUCK mini golf shot ever - IN AND OUT of the hole!
Переглядів 9112 місяці тому
Tried out a new indoor mini golf course called Par1 in Bellevue, WA and had the most freakishly bad luck thing ever happen on the Hoops hole! After putting it up a ramp into the basketball net, the ball hit flush in the back of the cup, fell in and somehow bounced out, defying physics. I've played a lot of golf and never had a ball bounce out of the bottom of a hole before. Crazy! This course h...

Переглядів 7 тис.5 місяців тому
I got to personally debut my newly refurbished Scar fursuit by Sparkle Kreations at Anthro Northwest 6 (2024) alongside one of the Pride Rock Brothers, Mufasa (performed by Kitwana)! This was one of my most memorable fursuit outings ever at a convention, so much fun portraying an iconic character from the film that helped me (and many others) find the furry fandom. So many happy lion hugs, posi...

GO STORBES
Congratulations on your big and this was cool I think your the 1st furry to be on a game show
Thanks! There have been several furries who have done well on game shows, most notably Bucktown Tiger who won 7 straight days and over $160,000 on Jeopardy. Since my episode was from 2004, I might have been one of the first!
How is he not dying in that amazing suit😭
Awesome video. Learned so much about ya. I remember TLK a lot and became a fan once I saw it. Now a days I have expanded to others. As you can tell by my yt name. TLK will always be in my heart. I wont be at AC and BLFC due to internal health issues but I will be at MFF this year. Hope to see ya there. Keep up the awesome job and hope to see ya again.
Thanks for answering my question! (Saving the best for last I see lol) I love hearing about the origins of fursonas and fursona names.
Haha I was glad it got chosen since there were a lot of questions in that bag! I love learning about name origins as well, there are so many unique ones in the fandom ^^
Adorable bean
Thanks for answering my question fellow gambler 😊 for me, I grew up watching price is right, still one of my faves and I watched the Games and Sports channel on Nickelodeon which was filled with game shows. My fave game show is honestly a tied, Legends of the hidden temple and wheel of fortune 😊
We have very similar tastes in game shows! I completely forgot to mention Legends as that was my favorite of the 90's Nickelodeon era. And Price is Right is a classic too :)
Blitz & Leo - I think we can very much agree on them being world-class mascots! To me, a good mascot doesn't necessarily has to pull off sick stunts, the community aspect and interacting with fans is just as important, if not more. I'm not sure how Japan and the U.S. differ in these aspects. It seems the Japanese put more emphasis on performance while American mascots excel in community outreach and fan interactions, but that's just a subjective feeling. It looks like we've got separated at birth when it comes to big cats. I have as many tiger plushies as I've got lions and who knows - I may or may not develop a Florida Panther fursona soon:) All big cats are cool! Thank you & Chaos for this informative & fun video, would love to see more. Even though we're very good friends, there's always new things to learn about each other! See you soon at AC! <3
if only i made the 1-5-7-10 at 7:59 ...
It would have required an insanely lucky pin bounce, it was about as good as a try as anyone could have done ^^
I used to go to a fur Bowl event close by to where I live, since covid they haven't came back sadly, the fur Bowl events were a lot of fun
Yeah the pandemic was really rough for us too, but we eased back into it and are finally back at pre-pandemic levels for attendance. I hope a new one starts up where you live!
Wow, he's really good! I love him so much. 💜 God bless to that beautiful soul, and God bless all of you here in the comments. Jesus loves you, remember that my friends. ❤️ 💖 John 3:16 💖 🦋 Romans 10: 9-11 🦋
Im scared
Só faltou o proerd ai pelo visto😂
Some dudes really started screaming "SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS" and they will keep doing it after the chaotic disaster
Awesome
Love this event! I was the blue fox with the sody pop and It's Dinner Time shirt.
I still can't believe I scored better than last time and was 1 number away from that wolf blanket. Very fun!
This was an awesome event! I'm really proud of myself for being able to bowl an entire game with my helmet on, and I'm going to shoot for both games next go round! Still need to decide if I want to dirty up my brand new feet paws with the greasy floor, though.
I had a lot of fun at WFS. Definitely looking forward to number 50 in August 🐾
...I remember when owning a fursuit was a rare thing, haha It's amazing how much the community has grown over the past 15 years.
Awesome video my friend Kijani and stay safe and have great night and enjoyed your time at the bowling alley.😊😊
Kijani, you always have the best videos. I regularly re-watch your content and are especially fond of the Fursuiting 101 videos with Gale. ❤😊
Thank you so much, Snuggles! That's great to hear my content is still being enjoyed and I will be creating much more of it coming up here soon <3
4:58 who's them cuties 👀
Awesome video and cute suits. Love it. Must be fun. Keep up the awesome job.
Bowling! ^.^
