Chiquitita

Chiquitita is a small Mantisian boy whose head and eyes are both notably round. Like most characters in the series his clothing changes often, but one item stays constant: the aviator hat he always wears.

Cheerful and innocent, the boy wears a smile nearly all the time and brings a playful energy wherever he goes. He is also remarkably reliable when handed a job, trusted by his father to pilot the family spacecraft, and he showed quick thinking when he told Momo she did not need to leap recklessly into a magma pit to save Okarun. Mirroring his father's quirk, he tacks the word deisu onto the end of his sentences.

Chiquitita fell ill with the same sickness that had killed his mother, so his father took on perilous Serpo jobs to fund his treatment. A cow obtained from Seiko supplied the milk his blood transfusions needed, and once his health returned the two relocated to Earth, since their homeworld could not sustain the animal he now depended on.

During the Cursed House Arc he flew the family UFO to Byakuja Village, steering the Tsuchinoko's corpse to smother a forest fire with its phlegm and hauling Okarun out of a magma pit, then joined the group for dinner and won over Aira, who warmed to him and welcomed him to stay. He later helped rebuild the wrecked Ayase house using Ludris' nanoskin while playing with Aira. Through the Space Globalists Arc he stayed in Kamigoe City under the care of Tamiko, a farm worker, with his father visiting nightly to make sure he drank his milk and slept. In the Six Curses Arc his father brought him and Tamiko to the Super Amusement Park, where he excitedly rattled off the brachiosaurus' dimensions and weight at the dinosaur exhibit, delighting Peeny-Weeny to see him enjoy himself so much.
