personality

Manny is friendly and outgoing. His personality usually gets him to want to do the fun stuff first, even if that means it could get him in trouble. However, if something really goes wrong, he won't hesitate to fix his mistake and will use his El Tigre powers to do so. While he has mostly the personality of a hero, his tendency to want to choose the easier and sometimes destructive way is like a villain. He wants to be good for his father Rodolfo, but sometimes he can´t resist being bad like his grandfather Granpapi, because it looks cool. This gives him an antiheroic personality. However, his family is more important for him, so he will always save them from any danger just like the rest of the Rivera family.

description

For the most part, Manny Rivera is a well-meaning kid with the energy and the spirit of a hero. But Manny is no goody-two-shoes. He's also got some serious supervillain potential. When he spins his mystical belt buckle, Manny transforms into the brave and powerful El Tigre, who struggles with whether to use his superpowers for good or evil. And sometimes evil wins. At times Manny will do the wrong things for the right reasons, at other times he'll do the wrong thing for the wrong reasons, and sometimes he'll even do the right thing for the right reasons. But mostly he's just looking for new and exciting adventures for himself and his best friend, Frida.
