Characters

Kiko-chan's Smile Manga Review Kikochan Smile
Kiko Himemaya
Voiced by: Satsuki YukinoKiko is a four-year-old girl who attends a private kindergarten in Tokyo. She is capable of doing many things most four-year-olds are not capable of; these include cooking, unassisted grocery shopping, limited acrobatics. Despite the title of the series, it is very rare to actually see Kiko smile and almost as rare for her to speak. Despite this, Kiko is quite popular with her classmates. She also has a wide variety of interests, including ballet, learning English, playing video games and interfering with her teacher's love life.

Megumi-sensei
Voiced by: Yuko MizutaniKiko's kindergarten teacher. She is twenty years old, and this is her first job out of teaching college. Kiko's eccentricities nearly make it her last, but Kiko is fond of her and turns her happiness into a personal project. Kiko also interferes with her love life, and helped her to find a boyfriend whom she married in the last episode. She hates carrots, to the point of fainting when she sees one. But carrots are her boyfriend's family's favourite food, so she often had to ask Kiko for help on the dates. She is extremely careless, even losing her wedding ring.
Neko-chan or Tenshi
Voiced by: Kousuke OkanoAn angel who has come to Earth in the form of a black cat on a mission to spread happiness throughout the world. Unfortunately he is unable to communicate with humans (who hear his speech as cat noises), and even more unfortunately for him Kiko adopts him. Even more problematically, he falls hopelessly in love with a vain female cat named Rosa, who eventually reciprocates his affection long enough to bear a litter of five kittens, who she leaves to his (and, without her knowledge, Kiko's) care.
Neko-chan's litter
They're named 'pa','pi','pu','pe',and 'po' by Kiko. They are also angels, and they are able to use supernatural powers. Like normal kittens, they are mischievous and energetic, and they proved themselves to be smarter than Neko-chan, such as the time when Kiko wanted a hippo, Neko-chan went to Africa by holding onto a plane, while the kittens just went to the local zoo. They like chocolate and are able to sing.

Trivia

Kiko's name and the title of the series are a pun on the Japanese Royal Family.
