OVA
Description
Pyocola Analogue III, commonly called Piyoko, is the 8-year-old alien princess and third ruler in her lineage from the impoverished Planet Analogue. Leading the Black Gema Gema Corps (or Gang), she orchestrates criminal schemes to solve her planet's severe financial crisis. Her primary motivation is alleviating this poverty, driving her repeated attempts to kidnap Di Gi Charat (Dejiko), princess of Planet Di Gi Charat, for vast ransom money. These plans consistently fail due to her gang's incompetence and Dejiko's interventions.
Piyoko's parents, following their own failed conquest of Planet Di Gi Charat, left her in the care of three subordinates—Rik, Ky, and Coo (or Rick, Coo, and Pik)—until she turns thirteen. She fled to Earth after accidentally destroying a city on Planet Analogue and lacking funds for repairs.
Physically, Piyoko has short blonde hair and blue or teal eyes. Her signature look is panda-themed attire: a nurse-style uniform featuring a hat with black panda eyes and mouth details, black panda ears, a black-and-white or brown-and-dark-brown vertically striped dress, an apron, grey socks, and black shoes. In "Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat," this shifts to a black maid dress with a pink-accented bow, bat wings, and black shoes, retaining the panda ears.
Personality-wise, Piyoko is fundamentally good-natured yet naive, making her easily deceived by Dejiko. Despite her antagonistic role, she exhibits a strong sense of responsibility for her planet's citizens, often pushing herself to secure their prosperity. Her speech includes the verbal tic "pyo." Her notable ability is the "Upchuck Bazooka" (or "Mouth Bazooka"), a powerful mouth-fired laser comparable to Dejiko's Laser Eye Beam, though its longer activation phrase often leaves her vulnerable to preemptive attacks. She displays an obsession with pandas, reflected in her costumes and thematic elements.
In the spin-off OVA "Leave it to Piyoko!", Piyoko becomes the protagonist. The series explores her daily life with the Black Gema Gema Gang on Earth, detailing their comedic misadventures and persistent, unsuccessful kidnapping attempts amid financial hardship. A brief cameo depicts her as a teenager in "Cromartie High School" (Episode 2).
