About Di Gi Charat

Looking for background on Di Gi Charat? This comedy, fantasy and sci-fi series by MADHOUSE (1999) starts out like this. The premise: Di Gi Charat is a series of shorts created as advertisements for "Digital Gamers", a store in Akihabara. The series follows Dejiko, princess of Di Gi Charat planet, and her companions, Puchiko and Gema, as well as Dejiko's rival, Rabi~en~Rose through daily ordeals they encounter while working at Gamers.

Next up: Princess Di Gi Charat came from the planet Di Gi Charat given only a cat cap and an outfit to disguise herself. Unfortunately she came with no money, only her guardian Gema and companion Petite Charat. Luckily the three stumbled upon a manager of the store Gamers, who offered them a home if they worked at the store.

Di Gi Charat (Asami Sanada) and Petite Charat (Miyuki Sawashiro) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series. At 16 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
