Description
Petit Charat, also called Puchiko, is the younger sister of Di Gi Charat (Dejiko). Hailing from the planet Di Gi Charat, she accompanies her sister to Earth. Her design features brown hair and brown eyes, with long hair usually parted and tied at the ends. She wears an orange tabby cat hat and matching tail, frequently accessorized by a blue ribbon at the tail's base. Her standard outfit is a sailor uniform with blue bloomers, though adaptations introduce variations: a light blue dress in *Di Gi Charat Nyo!*, a red shirt with dark blue pants in *Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat*, and a navy blue school uniform in *Winter Garden*. A temporary 2008 redesign gave her green eyes and a preschool uniform, reverted by 2013.
Her personality is predominantly stoic and reserved, maintaining calm in chaos. She speaks rarely but sharply when provoked and holds an interest in the occult. Her demeanor adapts across media; in *Winter Garden*, she lacks much characteristic snark and actively facilitates reconciliation.
Her background presents conflicting origins: early lore suggests meeting Dejiko after rescue from a hole, while newer media establishes her as Dejiko's biological sister. On Earth, she works alongside Dejiko and Gema at the Gamers store in Akihabara. Adaptations alter her role: staying at the Ankorodo Cake Shop in *Di Gi Charat Nyo!*, and briefly working at McDonald's in *Winter Garden*.
Her primary skill is the Laser Eye Beam (Me Kara Beam), written in Hiragana as "めからびーむ". This ability is underdeveloped compared to Dejiko's, often producing random effects due to infrequent use tied to suppressed anger. In *Di Gi Charat Nyo!*, successful activation occurs only when severely provoked.
Relationships define her character. She views Dejiko as both sister and occasional caretaker, especially evident in *Winter Garden* where Dejiko assumes a more parental role. Family includes parents King and Queen, cousins Mike Charat and Rinna Charat, and extended relatives like Grandpa Charat and ancestor Judy Treasure. Her interactions extend to the antagonistic Black Gema Gema Corps led by Piyoko.
Notable traits include a preference for fermented beans during her Earth stay in *Di Gi Charat Nyo!* and the use of Mystery Phones for communication. Her age fluctuates: typically 5-6 years old, she appears as 3 in *Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat* and 15 in *Winter Garden*.
