Description
Kimi was the last addition to the cast of Rugrats, making her first appearance in the second Rugrats movie, Rugrats in Paris. She is depicted as being joyful and tomboyish, with black hair, tied up in three pigtails on top of her head. She wears a pink shirt, yellow dress with a purple cat on it, wearing a diaper underneath (like Lil) and purple boots.
She was introduced as Chuckie's adorable and tomboyishly beautiful new sister, after her mother, Kira Finster, who married Chuckie's father, Chas. This marriage and the changes it brought to the Finster family were used in the series to teach the young viewers, by demonstration, about adapting to such drastic changes caused by remarriage.
In Rugrats, the one and a half year old Kimi was portrayed as very brave and often stumbled into dangerous situations she was too naïve to recognize, often bringing her new brother, Chuckie Finster, along, much to his dismay. He described her as "another Tommy" not too long upon meeting her. Despite her cuteness and beauty, she is just as adventurous as Tommy and cares for her friends. On the other hand, unlike Tommy, she often takes action first and thinks later. She laughs in the eye of danger and is always looking for an adventure. In All Grown Up!, it is revealed that she has a crush on Tommy.
