On a never-ending, futile mission to change her socioeconomic status, Dejiko, her sidekick Petit Charat "Puchiko", her royal guardian Gema, and her competitive coworker Hikaru Usada try everything in their power to overturn the soul-crushing mundanity of working in retail—all in a series of surreal yet ironically relatable attempts at spicing up their daily lives.[Written by MAL Rewrite]Related Entries MALxJapan -More than just anime- Characters & Voice Actors Staff "Only One, No. 1" by Masami Okui "Happy Day" by Sanada Asami, Sawashiro Miyuki and Hikami Kyouko Reviews Jul 15, 2010 This was a very short anime, I saw all the episodes in about 1 night. One reason I liked this was because it was very cute and random. But a reason I didn't like it was because it didn't have Piyoko in it. Piyoko is a character from most of the other Di Gi Charat series, by the way. The art style was very cute, I really liked it. ^^ I think if you have time, you should watch this series. I reccomend it! Thanks for reading :D Reviewer’s Rating: 10 What did you think of this review? Nice0 Love it0 Funny0 Confusing0 Informative0 Well-written0 Creative0Show all Mar 10, 2010 May as well make a review for this. Maybe someone out there will read this!For such an old series (more than 10 years), Di Gi Charat can actually deliver something... may it be fun and laughter, cuteness or just filling in some spare minutes, as these episodes are only 4-7 minutes long.WEIRD FACT: Di Gi Charat was solely created by Broccoli just to advertise their Gamers store in Akihabara, Japan.There isn't much of a storyline. We have 2 young catgirls: Dejiko (who dreams to become an idol) and Puchiko, and their floating blob Gema decide to land in Akihabara. With no actual place to stay,... they get hired to work at Gamers and makes the store their home. The series doesn't exactly have a continuous plot and instead, each episode has their own little plot/storyline. Some are silly, others are wierd... it's pretty random so don't take it too seriously. However there is some sense of continuity as Rabien Rose (a.k.a Usada Hikaru), a side character, acts as Dejiko's rival in terms of becoming idols and they clash quite often. There are also other minor characters who appear every now and then, keeping in touch with Dejiko and the others. This also applies in the other specials of the anime series.Because this was made back in 1999 with almost-to-none professional work, you'll notice how bland the anime is. You got cheaply drawn backgrounds, rough animations and the sounds may be a bit iffy at times. And expect to hear a lot of "Nyo~" and "Nyu~". The only thing that looks detailed are the important characters. Oh, and the OP music isn't too shabby to listen to either.Not much else to say about this. Just that if you got a few minutes to spare/kill before you have to do something else, just watch an episode of this. You won't regret wasting the spare time, but it just may leave you saying "What the hell did I just watch now?" Reviewer’s Rating: 7 What did you think of this review? Nice0 Love it0 Funny0 Confusing0 Informative0 Well-written0 Creative0Show all Dec 10, 2020 As a short series which purpose is to be an advert, we can't really expect much but still.The show is about alien catgirls who came down to Akihabara just to live there. So you'll have a serie of short comical scenes in a slice of life style anime.The charadesign is quite nice, especially Petit Charat who is really cute and quite funny. DigiCharat the MC is comparable in character to Jashin Dropkick.The main problem with this show is that it's trying to be funny, and never is. At most you'll have a fun atmosphere, but you will never laugh. The dialogues are supposed to be... funny but aren't: you'll just have the feeling that they just said something a bit weird and nothing more. Overall it was really boring even though it only lasts 3min per episode.P.S.: My first review on MAL. Reviewer’s Rating: 3 What did you think of this review?
