Kairiku is the only child of wealthy parents who spoil her. She's incredibly intelligent; in the morning, she takes regular sixth grade classes, but in the afternoon she takes a class each day at Harvard, which is why she lives in Cambridge. Because she has to be both a little kid and a college student in the same day, she's really torn between wanting to be a child, having fun, but not being taken seriously by adults, and wanting to be a college-level genius, challenging herself, being respected, but feeling out of place; either way, she constantly feels like a freak show, an outcast. At school she's made fun of for being so smart, and at college, well, she's 13. Her parents are constantly pressuing her to do better, be smarter, break records, and it really bothers her. As a result, she spends a lot of time withdrawn, and she writes (mostly poetry) to vent her frustrations. When The Phantom Menace came out in May 1999, she went to see it with some kids from her sixth grade class, and even though they saw it as a joke, she really connected with Anakin, so she really got into Star Wars. (She kept count of the days until TPM came out on video...)
As Sailor Chibi Naboo, Kairiku represents Otoh Gunga more than she does Naboo. This the the reason for her Gungan-related attacks, her blue and green fuku, and her Gungan-ears ponytails.
Kairiku is currently dating none other than Anakin Skywalker, the renowned padawan to Obi-Wan Kenobi. (She and Anakin are so cute together! ;) )
