In the first film, when Lilo attempted to push Nani out the door after calling out on a fallen star, Nani pretended gravity is increasing on her, prompting Lilo to call her weird. After his powers reversed to good luck, Lilo apologized and reconciled with Shoe, assuring him that she still liked him all the same.ĭespite her kindness and generosity, Lilo can sometimes be a selfish hypocrite. Notably, despite all the misfortune Shoe caused with his bad luck power seemingly making it impossible to find his one true place and Pleakley insisting they get rid of him, Lilo refused to as Gantu would capture him. Nonetheless, she is sweet and believes in the good of everyone as shown through her interactions with Gantu and the experiments, especially Stitch.

In fact, she views the experiments as part of her ʻohana, and as a result, devotes so much time to capturing them that it sometimes interferes with her life, but sometimes she abandons them and leaves them free for Gantu to capture (which Nosy calls her out for in the last episode). She is very adventurous, brave, and clever, easily coming up with strategies to capture the experiments and never showing fear in the face of the many life-threatening dangers to her life that she faces while capturing the experiments. It is hinted once in the film through Nani that Lilo might have chased away a bunch of social workers before Cobra. She does have a tendency to act selfish and irresponsible, however, especially when an experiment is around that she can use for her own personal benefit, which usually causes huge trouble and brings out the worst in her. In addition to her naughtiness, she enjoys being messy and having fun, though her recklessness sometimes causes her to make a mess of her surroundings, much to the disapproval of others around her. Even when Nani points out that behavior does not make them her friends, Lilo refutes "they're the only ones got besides Stitch". She is also naïve, believing Mertle, Elena, Teresa, and Yuki as her friends despite that they cruelly hate her, and often comes up with several unconventional ways to befriend them. She also idolizes Elvis Presley and often does not seem to understand that her eccentricities cause her to be an outcast from most of the other children. She attends hula school and her hobbies include the photography of obese tourists, talking about creatures from horror/sci-fi movies, and capturing and rehabilitating Jumba's evil genetic experiments. But when the Pelekais' house got destroyed, Lilo was about to be taken to foster care and her family photo got ruined, Lilo became so bitter towards Stitch that she wanted him to get out of her life, showing that she has breaking points as well. Lilo was patient and faithful towards Stitch throughout the film, even after he causes Nani to lose her jobs and nearly drowns her. Lilo is emotionally sensitive and usually cries whenever she's really hurt or if something bad happens to someone she loves and cares for (mainly Nani or Stitch), having been emotionally scarred by losing her parents at such a young age. Lilo's spirited and highly eccentric personality, especially in light of her parents' death, has alienated her from her fellow children (whom she oddly still considers her friends despite them mistreating her and openly admitting that they hate her and don't want her around), yet Lilo makes the perfect best friend for Stitch, an alien experiment whom she adopts, initially believing he is a "dog" (although he actually bears more of a resemblance to a koala, which is pointed out several times).


With Nani being of age by the time of the tragedy, she was dubbed Lilo's legal guardian. On a rainy night, Lilo and Nani's parents were killed in a car accident, leaving the two sisters orphaned. In the original movie, Lilo is a six-year-old girl living on the island of Kauai with her older sister, Nani.
