Information[]
Koshi is Dashi's well-behaved younger sister who is a natural, expert detective, as seen in The Kelp Monster Mystery. She is a fan of mystery novels, especially Donna Doxi, and is honest and well behaved around others. Dashi gave Koshi her collection of mystery books she read when she was little, and Koshi has read 54 out of 100 of them (55 out of 100 after she finished the one she was currently reading). The novels have showed her how to determine a person's characteristics by looking at them closely. Koshi helped the Octonauts solve a disappearance in the kelp forest and led the way. Unless she's reading, it is almost impossible to get anything past her. She is very sweet and brave, and is full of kindness. She is also always ready for any mission that comes her way.
Like Dashi in the UK version, she speaks with an Australian accent, and in the US version, a light American accent.
She appears again in Season 6 - Above and Beyond in the episode "The Australian Outback Mystery", where she becomes an official Junior Octo-Agent and gets stationed in Australia after she helps Dashi on a mission there saving animals from an upcoming flash flood. She shows up in another episode, "The Curious Penguin", as well and meets Pinto for the first time.
In season 2, she appears in The Mystery of the Longfin Eels, where she writes about the time she, Dashi and Shellington solved a case of missing baby eels, and they had to ask predators Eddie the Albatross, Bridget the Rainbow Blanket Octopus, and Randy the Gray Reef Shark if they had seen them, which also led them to almost being eaten. They soon found the baby eels, and learned that they were nearly invisible to hide from predators. The babies were then brought home to New Zealand.
Appearance[]
Koshi is a somewhat miniature version of Dashi. She has a black short-sleeved blouse with a moderate aquamarine overall dress, and a light green pocket in the front. The pocket holds a pencil and notepad in it. She has brown hair in two pigtails and vivid yellow pearl hair ties holding them up. Strands of her hair fold to the right. Koshi also has brown nose and muzzle. Koshi has brilliant yellow leggings and black shoes with a slight green tint. Koshi's face has very faint freckles, so they are easy to miss.

- Much like Pinto, Koshi's voice was changed in the Above and Beyond spinoff when compared to the original series in the US, becoming distinctly higher in pitch and tone.
- Koshi is the tallest of the Octonauts crew's younger relatives, being taller than both Peso's younger brother, Pinto and Captain Barnacles' niece and nephew, Orson and Ursa.
- It's unknown if she finished her Donna Doxie Book collection or not.
