Character

Fio Piccolo

Relative and heir to the Piccolo engineering company, Fio is an outgoing tomboy who always says what's on her mind. Called a genius by some, she is said to stand out from the already famous men in her family when it comes to designing planes. In the story of Porco Rosso, she becomes Porco's 'hostage' and later a bargaining chip for his revenge against Curtis. To Fio, she is just living out a grand adventure, like the sky pirates of old. And it is heavily implied that she grows to like Porco as more than just a friend.
