Taking advantage of the short anime format, each episode is only 5 minutes long, allowing viewers to fully enjoy the world of Di Gi Charat. The story continues the basic premise of Dejiko and Puchiko, who come to Earth from the planet Di Gi Charat and aim to become big actresses in Akihabara, but with the addition of new characters Broccodes and Bushiro-chan, the story becomes even more lively and interesting. In particular, the characters of Broccodes and Bushiro-chan shine as new attractions for the series. Broccodes usually has a soft and gentle demeanor, but when he gets going, he starts talking like a raging torrent, which is impressive, and his special skill of planning and producing character goods is also appealing. On the other hand, Bushiro-chan is a serious character who speaks politely using honorific language, but shows an unexpected side of herself in her special skill of pro wrestling, making her a fascinating character with a contrast between their personalities. The cast is also impressive, with a collection of talented voice actors, including Asami Sanada, Miyuki Sawashiro, Kyoko Hikami, Yoshiko Kamei, and Megumi Hayashibara. In particular, Asami Sanada's performance as Dejiko perfectly captures De Gi Charat's nasty personality and her "nyo" ending, drawing viewers in. Miyuki Sawashiro's performance as Puchiko, with her laid-back and sometimes sarcastic acting, also brings out the character of Puchiko perfectly. The main staff, including director Hiroaki Sakurai, original author and character designer Kogedonbo*, and character designer Atsuko Watanabe, are all members who have supported the Di Gi Charat series, ensuring a stable quality. In particular, Hiroaki Sakurai's skill as a director is strong in his ability to portray the story clearly within the short anime format. Additionally, Atsuko Watanabe's character designs accurately express the adorable appearance of Di Gi Charat, making for plenty of visual appeal. The main characters' settings are also detailed, with details such as Di Gi Charat's birthdays, heights, weights, ages, blood types, favorite foods, and special skills, providing plenty of information that fans will enjoy. In particular, Dejiko's special skill, "eye beams," and Puchiko's "eye beams," are iconic elements of the Di Gi Charat series and delight viewers. Additionally, each character's special skills, such as La Vie en Rose's "bunny ear propellers" and Pyocola Analog III's "mouth bazooka," are unique and interesting. Each episode has a unique subtitle, catching the viewer's attention. The humorous titles, typical of the Di Gi Charat series, such as "Long time no see, Akihabara," "Are they all here?" and "Let's do something naughty," are particularly memorable. Additionally, titles that hint at the development of the story, such as "Dejiko advances into the world," "Manager for a day," and "Reborn in another world something or other," are also appealing. The lineup of related works also evokes the history of the Di Gi Charat series, making it something fans won't want to miss. In particular, it includes important works from the Di Gi Charat series, such as "Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat," "Di Gi Charat Theater: Leave it to Piyoko Pyo!" and "Di Gi Charat Nyo," so you can enjoy the entire series. Also, don't miss the seasonal special episodes, such as "Winter Garden," "Di Gi Charat Summer Special," and "Di Gi Charat Christmas Special." The theme songs and music, such as TM1's "Ambiguous Theory of Happiness" and IN1's "PARTY☆NIGHT (D-POP version)," are also memorable and capture the hearts of viewers. In particular, "Ambiguous Theory of Happiness" is an attractive song with Masami Okui's powerful singing voice and Toshiro Yabuki's beautiful melody, firmly expressing the worldview of the Di Gi Charat series. In addition, "PARTY☆NIGHT (D-POP version)" is a song that will excite viewers with the singing voices of Asami Sanada, Miyuki Sawashiro, Kyoko Hikami, Satomi Akesaka, and Ayasa Ito. RecommendationThe Reiwa Di Gi Charat is a must-see for fans of the Di Gi Charat series, and is also appealing to new viewers. Taking advantage of the short anime format, each episode is only 5 minutes long, allowing viewers to fully enjoy the world of Di Gi Charat. There are also plenty of highlights, including a stellar cast and main staff, distinctive main characters, unique subtitles, related works, and memorable theme songs and music. Be sure to watch the Reiwa Di Gi Charat and rediscover the charm of Di Gi Charat. |
