The following is a list of characters which appear on Nickelodeon 's animated television series El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera.
Manny is friendly and outgoing, yet does not yet know if he is a hero or a villain similar to El Tigre I, which may cause him to develop a split personality similar to El Tigre I giving him an antiheroic personality. He wants to be good for his father, Rodolfo, but can't resist being bad like his grandfather, Grandpapi Rivera, from time to time. When Manny spins his mystical belt buckle, he transforms into the brave and powerful tiger -themed superhero El Tigre.
His powers include sharp, retractable claws that can cut through anything, shooting out his hand like a grappling hook, super strength, and super jumping abilities. In The Grave Escape , he gained the power to summon an ancient Tiger spirit, creating a large, green, tiger-shaped energy field around himself that mimics his motions. Frida isn't always the best influence on Manny, and the two are always getting into some kind of mischief.
Frida doesn't have any superpowers save for one brief stint as La Tigresa in the episode bearing the same name , but is always with Manny when he's fighting crime, and is occasionally helpful, even saving Manny a few times.
Frida is very different from her twin sisters Nikita and Anita, who are both following their father's law enforcement footsteps, and tease Frida for being weird as a result. Frida, on the other hand, has a band named the Atomic Sombreros, and has a very outgoing attitude towards life, despite being very tomboyish. Frida's archrival is Zoe Aves, who has been pulling pranks on her since preschool.
