Di Gi Charat

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?" read more

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
