Dejiko

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Di Gi Charat, usually shortened to Dejiko or Digiko,^[1] is the main character of the manga and anime of the same name created by Koge-Donbo. She is a princess of a planet that is also called Di Gi Charat. She is a catgirl which is highlighted by the fact that she ends each sentence with the cat sound 'nyo'. She can be violent at times and will resort to using her special ability, eye-beams, to inflict damage on others. She is close friends with her sidekick Puchiko who has a contrasting personality to that of Dejiko's. Dejiko can work vigorously when motivated but gives up easily when there is no incentive or if things become difficult. Dejiko is the company mascot of Gamers, a retail chain of Broccoli, the production company for Di Gi Charat.

Dejiko is dressed up as a catgirl. In the prequel, Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat she appears to be young and she is ten years old when she comes to Earth with hopes of becoming an idol singer. She has green eyes and green hair and her maid-like uniform consists of a white and navy blue dress with big cat bells tied to her hair with navy blue ribbons.
