Synopsis

Kiko tells of a child of a goldfish who is very independent, even though he is an only child. Kiko who is always cheerful has four good friends, namely Lola the discus fish, Ting Ting the crab, Patino the catfish and Poli the betta fish. On the other hand, the antagonists, Karkus the catfish and Pupus the eel, always make Kiko's life chaotic. One day, the lake where Kiko lives is polluted due to the reckless acts of humans, causing Kiko and friends to turn into mutants.[1]

Characters

Kiko (Goldfish)
  • Active, very smart, agile, and always a leader among his friends. Kiko is a fast runner, a good soccer player, and an honest and fun friend. His delinquency and curiosity sometimes lead him and his friends to fall into funny and fun adventures. Kiko is Ciko's older cousin.
    Lola (Discus Fish)
  • Cooking and caring for a flower garden are this sensitive girl's hobbies. It's true, Lola is easily scared, a crybaby, and anxious. For issues of cleanliness or tidiness, though, she can become an assertive, brave perfectionist! She likes to try new recipes and does not hesitate to ask her friends to taste her cooking, whether it is a success or a failure.
    Ting-Ting (Crab)
  • Enjoys experimenting.
    Patino (Iridescent Shark)
  • This iridescent shark is Kiko's most powerful and loyal friend. He likes to eat, watch wrestling, and lift weights. He is insensitive and not very smart. He is not aware that he is a flexible and great ballet dancer. He was only afraid of starvation and ran out of Lola's cake.
    Poli (Siamese Fighting / Betta Fish)
  • Behind his cold and overly honest nature, Poli is actually a shy child who is not good at expressing his feelings. Sportsmanship and loyalty to friends is the motto of Betta Fish, who likes extreme activities and self-defense. When angry, Poli can only be calmed by a sleep song, which reminds him of a mysterious childhood memory. If he feels sad, Poli will shout: Bete!.
    Karkus (Catfish)
  • Catches fish for sale as a hobby.
    Pupus (Yellow Eel)
  • Catches fish for sale as a hobby.[2]
    Buba (Crocodile)
  • Ciko (Goldfish)
  • A poor child who has hobbies like skateboarding, Ciko is the second great-grandson of King Robin Theon Parampaa and cousin of Kiko.
    Patino's father (Iridescent Shark)
  • Patino's father has Patino's brown horned hair and has a mustache. Patino calls on his father, "Papa", in the episode "Dimana Patino?".
    Occi (Octopus)
  • Kiko's new favorite friend as well as Kiko's pet in the second season of Kiko with the episode Teman Misterius.
