Description
Di Gi Charat, also called Dejiko or Chocola, serves as princess of planet Di Gi Charat. The prequel "Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat" portrays her at age eight, two years prior to the original series. After reading a book on philanthropy, her core motivation becomes spreading happiness across her home planet. This mission prompts her to leave the castle alongside companion Puchiko, though her tutor demands they take the floating yellow chaperon Gema for supervision.
Her appearance in this prequel diverges from other portrayals. She wears a plain pink dress with darker pink ribbons, pink Mary Jane-style shoes, and carries a white cat-shaped bag, contrasting her usual blue maid outfit and accessories, reflecting the younger setting.
Personality-wise, this incarnation emphasizes kindness and selflessness, driven by her goal to help others. She aids cake shop owner Rinna by baking cakes despite initial failures, learning that the "baking powder of the heart" – love and anticipating others' joy – is essential. She also helps Meek understand a cat stealing fish to feed its kittens, demonstrating empathy. Core traits persist: stubbornness surfaces when pursuing goals despite obstacles, and she retains a temper, exemplified by shooting Gema with a cannon after a joke. She occasionally displays secrecy about her royal status, nearly revealing it before Gema reminds her to act like a commoner. Her abilities include the signature Laser Eye Beam, used less frequently and aggressively here.
Her character evolves across other official media:
- The original "Di Gi Charat" features her older, at age ten, and more self-centered. Fleeing her planet's invasion, she arrives on Earth aspiring to be an idol. Her personality is hotter-headed, quicker to use Eye Beams against annoyances, though she cares deeply for Puchiko.
- "Di Gi Charat Nyo!" repositions her on Earth for princess training. Fuel constraints prevent returning home; she exhibits laziness and stubbornness while staying at a toy store. Her dynamic with rivals like Rabi~en~Rose involves mutual antagonism.
- "Winter Garden," set at age twenty, depicts her reformed as an adult. She works at a maid-themed café, displaying maturity, soft-spokenness, and a lack of her earlier temper. She develops romantic feelings for Takurou Senba after a kind gesture and acts protectively toward Puchiko.
Her background identifies her as the daughter of the Great Chief and Queen of Di Gi Charat. Her real name, Chocola, was supplemented by her father with the title "Di Gi Charat" to denote her royal status, a dual identity maintained across all media.
