🥝🦝 Pipi Kiwi - The Wandering Raccoon Kiwi
In the comic “The Brainrots”, there are creatures born from chaos.
And then there are creatures that seem born from a fruit cut in half while someone was laughing too hard.
Pipi Kiwi is exactly that: an adorable and unsettling hybrid, half raccoon and half kiwi, with legs too human to ignore.
🥝 Impossible Anatomy
Pipi Kiwi is made like this:
- raccoon head, with a clever and slightly confused expression
- kiwi fruit body cut in half, with the inside visible but the skin still present
- striped tail that seems to “sprout from the center” of the fruit
- paws that almost look like a raccoon's, but end in… human feet
In the comic, it is often drawn with a “too real” physicality, as if it were a poorly executed but perfect collage.
There is also an alternative version (secondary) in which more raccoon features appear: a more evident neck and extra details on the legs.
🌳 Where it lives: the Kiwi Forest
Pipi Kiwi inhabits the legendary Kiwi Forest, also called the Wairaks Forest.
A place where:
- the kiwi trees are giant,
- the paths look like green cotton candy,
- and the air smells of sweet acid and mystery.
Here, nonsense is not a flaw.
It is law.
🍃 The Orange Trance and the “Kiwi Shuffle”
There is a curiosity that returns as a recurring gag in the comic:
Pipi Kiwi cannot stand the sound of oranges being peeled.
That “crack” of the peel… sends him into a trance.
And the Kiwi Shuffle begins, a ritual dance handed down by the sages of the forest.
It is said that this dance awakens the radioactive kiwi trees, which release a scent of sour lemon on nights with a crooked moon.
Those who manage to film it without being seen would obtain eternal protection against meme mosquitoes.
No one has ever succeeded.
(Perhaps because the oranges are a trap.)
🐭 “Squeak Squeak”
In the stranger panels, Squeak Squeak also appears: a creature connected to Pipi Kiwi by atmosphere and style.
A mouse with a mouse face, kiwi on him, and huge feet, who repeats:
“Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!”
It is as if it were the living noise that accompanies Pipi Kiwi when reality becomes too sweet.
👯 Relationships and the Phi Phi family
Pipi Kiwi is part of the Phi Phi family, which includes variants and fruity/animal “relatives.”
Among the closest:
- Pipi Strawberry (always ready to collect juice)
- Pipi Yuzu (the zen citrus)
- Perochello Lemonchello (very sour and theatrical)
Among the best-known rivals:
- Quesadilla Crocodila (snack thief)
- Kiwwitto Banditto (raccoon-bandit who tries to rob the forest)
And then there is the forbidden name…
Pippi Poppa Pippo Peppe.
Just saying it makes the kiwi trees shiver.
📚 Where does the name come from?
In the “external” lore, it is said that the name Pipi Kiwi is also inspired by a book called Pipi Kiwi.
And there is a curious detail: “pipi” is noted as the Māori word for “baby / infant.”
So, in an absurd and perfect way…
Pipi Kiwi would be a “kiwi baby.”
Too bad that in the comic he is not a little bird.
He is a raccoon-kiwi with human feet.
And that makes everything more The Brainrots.
