Why He Rocks

 * 1) Director Germán Acuña said he was inspired by the characters from Studio Ghibli especially from Conan: el niño del futuro, but the fans of my film said he's a combination from the characters from the famous Western shows like Steven Universe and Dipper Pines based on his character design, personality and story arc.
 * 2) Character development. He starts from a weakling grieving boy who afraid of the ocean to a man who conquered his fears.
 * 3) He always take care of my friends, (spoiler alert if you haven't watch the film yet) He's unwilling to watch Fresia falls down from the lighthouse, so he dives into the ocean, tries to save her, and despite got unconscious, the Cai-Cai brought them to safety, proving that he's brave.
 * 4) He take a stand against the dangerous Trauco, Chon-chon the goblin dealer, and even the world destroyer Kalku, despite how they were scary and a weakling kid he is.
 * 5) He's a warmhearted and adventurous nerd who had his relationship with his dad (Antonio), mom (Consuelo), companion (Ruende) and best friend (Fresia).

Bad Qualities (La única cosa que apeste)

 * 1) His stole the book from the abandoned house to conquer his fear of the sea, which is make a lot of consequences.
 * 2) He didn't listen to Ruende and Fresia when he made a deal with Chon Chon and Tracao.
