The term "改変" (kaihen) refers to modifications or alterations, which in this context can include changes to avatars for various purposes, including erotic or adult-themed modifications.
-
According to a popular article on avatar modifications, there is a growing trend among users to create and share modified avatars, including those that may have adult themes.

-
A detailed guide on creating adult versions of avatars, specifically referencing Kipfel, discusses the process of modifying the character's appearance, including clothing and hair adjustments. This guide suggests that users are actively engaged in creating adult-themed versions of Kipfel, which implies a level of acceptance within the community for such modifications (source-3).

Analysis
The evidence suggests a nuanced understanding of the claim. While there is a community that engages in erotic modifications of the Kipfel avatar, the claim that it is universally accepted or officially sanctioned is not fully substantiated.
-
The source discussing avatar modifications highlights the creativity and personal expression involved in these changes, but it does not provide a definitive stance from the creators or rights holders of Kipfel regarding the permissibility of erotic modifications. This raises questions about the legality and ethical considerations of such modifications, particularly in relation to copyright and creator rights.
-
The user-generated content and guides indicate a thriving community of modders who share techniques and tips for creating various versions of avatars, including adult-themed ones. However, this community-driven aspect does not equate to an official endorsement of erotic modifications by the original creators of Kipfel.
-
The reliability of the sources varies; while the articles and user posts provide insight into community practices, they lack authoritative statements from the creators or governing bodies that oversee avatar modifications in VRChat. Therefore, while the community may support such modifications, it does not mean that they are officially sanctioned.
Conclusion
The claim that "キプフェルはエロ改変OKである" is Partially True. There is evidence of a community that engages in and supports erotic modifications of the Kipfel avatar, suggesting a level of acceptance among users. However, the lack of explicit permission or endorsement from the original creators means that the claim cannot be considered entirely accurate. It reflects community practices rather than an official policy.
