Is Kiki a mackerel tabby or a classic tabby?

Some people say he is a classic tabby and others say he is a mackerel, i think he is a mackerel tabby, but i am not 100% sure. What do you think he is, i need straight answers.

As I can see, its the mackerel variation,  striped or tigerish, as they say in many languages.

No bulls eye in the middle.

Yep, mackerel.  The classic tabby has distinct swirls on the hip/side.  The mackerel is so called because it looks like fish bones--relatively straight lines down the sides.
