Is this another season of DiGi Charat? So far I like it, it's very cute and funny. Yes, I still like Puchiko best, I think, though sleepy Rinna is interesting too.

Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat takes place two years before Digiko arrives on Earth, so no Rabi-en-Rose.

A breakdown of who has what:

Synch Point: Original Di Gi Charat TV series and Movie
ADV: Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat
Bandai: Di Gi Charat Nyo
Unlicensed: Di Gi Charat Specials (Summer, Christmas, Spring, and Natsuyasumi)

That's helpful to know. Thank you! Now I understand what was going on.

Since I just changed my avatar to Rabi~en~Rose who is so much better than Dejiko, I'm ressurecting a topic to say why:

Why Rabi~en is better than Dejiko:

-Rabi~en has a better figure
-Her name is a French-English pun that references a Japanese band. Dejiko's is hard to spell.
-Tildes.
-Dice > Cat ears
-Rabi~en can fly without a spaceship.
-Less mainstream hair color

and a few reasons why Dejiko is better:

-ending all her sentences with "Nyo." If Rabi~en ended her sentences with "Rabi" there'd be no contest.
-The eye beam.

1) Shallow.
2) o_O;
3) *blink* The key next to the one?
4) Bells > Dice. she has BELLS, not just cat ears.
5) And somehow, Rabi always manages to crash or get blown up by Digiko while flying. And Digiko can shoot fucking lazers from her eyes.
5) Pink or purple? Um..chibiusa, xelloss, cutey honey, chibi chibi, utena, mikage, cere cere....How many can you name with lime green hair?

1. Maybe so, but it's still true. Better personality too, if that helps.
2. Second paragraph from the bottom
3. Yes, if you hold Shift.
4. Then you have to count Rabi~en's bunny ears as well. And I think dice show style--a more mature look than kitty bells.
5. That only goes to show that Dejiko is jealous. Plus, Rabi~en has access to advanced weaponry through hammerspace, and she only uses it for good (a point against her, but hey).
6. I meant mainstram for humans.

1) o_O Yes, because..Rabi's vindictive nature and utter need to destroy Digiko despite the fact that Digiko doesn't care about Rabi one way or another from the beginning, REALLY shows good judgement and character.
2) I KNOW about the original of her name. I just don't find th eother's name that hard to spell. Digiko.
3) I know what key that is. How on earth does that have to do with her actual character?
4) Rabi is OLDER. Of COURSE she's more mature.
5) No, it shows that Rabi annoys her..and I can understand. I'd be annoyed to, if everytime I tried to to do something, a cackling bunny girl appeared and insisted on doing it her way, or insisted on destroying me.
6) ....Wow. yeah. Cuz the people I work with totally have green or pink hair...

Sailorasteroid · Post by **Sailorasteroid** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 3:55 pm

1. Exactly! Now you're getting it!
2. Or Dejiko, or Dijiko.
3. It's a cool name thing. We've been down the "I like unusual names" road before.

5. Rabi~en never wanted to destroy her. The only think she did was blow some dust across Dejiko's picnic. A bit of harmless fun that didn't even ruin the food. The Dejiko had to take it to the next level.
6. To me pink > green.

*Shrugs* Meh. Rabi annoys me. Digi doesn't. Oh, well.

I have to side with Sailorasteroid concerning Dijiko.

Dijiko is annoying because she's an irratating, selfish brat who feels that she must be in charge of everything, and shoots lasers at others for no real reason other than the fact that she's a brat. To quote from a Broccoli book, she's pure evil, and her tacky cat maid design is so lame and boring (because, you know, we never see girls in anime wear maid outfits and kitty ears). I also hate how she ends her sentences with "nyo"...it's not cute. It's stupid.

Rabi is annoying sometimes, and she is a bitch, but I wouldn't be Miss Happy either if I were stuck with someone as stupid and mean as Dijiko all the time.

Wow. Thanks. I'm glad to know that one of the outfits I cosplay quite often is tacky. That really makes me want to go out and wear it again.

Guys, seriously, chill out. There's no need to start taking attacks on your favorite characters so personally; it's not as if we're insulting real people here, and certainly we're not insulting each other. Let's lay off the sensitivity and get back to civil discussions here, ok?

It's not the fact that he hates the character that is irritating to me. It's the fact that Asteroid and I were obviously lightly poking jabs at eachother..we were TEASING. It was obvious by our replies. But when someone comes along, and so vehemently just tears into a fictional character...*shakes head* It's a CARTOON CHARACTER. I can't imagine having that much hatred for an animated cel.

Starscream · Post by **Starscream** » Fri Apr 15, 2005 11:03 am

Exactly. It's an animated character. Don't let what other people think of fictional creations get you - or anyone else, for that matter - irritate you or offend you. Let's just move along and return to a more congenial discussion, because it seems that the "friendly" argument between Tiff and SailorAsteroid is being interpreted as a real turf war.

Neo Dead Moon · Post by **Neo Dead Moon** » Fri Apr 15, 2005 11:43 am

You two didn't sound like you were joking. But you're friends, so that's why you get away with it. But then when I argued, I went too far. Is that the gist of it?

Actually, no, Asteroid and I don't talk at all outside of SMU. AT ALL. So don't assume.

My point is that you went as far as to blatantly insult a fictional character, without any tact whatsoever. It was ridiculous to takei t that far. Come on...

1. Exactly! Now you're getting it!

In response to

1) o_O Yes, because..Rabi's vindictive nature and utter need to destroy Digiko despite the fact that Digiko doesn't care about Rabi one way or another from the beginning, REALLY shows good judgement and character

didn't hint sarcastic joking to you?

If it wasn't obvious to you, then sorry. But the whole point of Starscream's words is that NONE of us need to take this too far. So stop.

Don't even respond to this.

I'm sorry Tiff, I'm sorry Sailorasteroid, but Puchiko beats Dejiko and Rabi any day

Because...

-Puchiko is such a cute name! It comes from French too, from the word 'petit' (small) Sure, it should be 'petite' for Puchiko, but close enough

-She looks all spacey but really she's paying the most attention out of all three.
-She makes really cutting remarks. And is still so damn cute it should be illegal
-Cat ears + school uniform --> Can you hear the fanboys screaming?
-'Nyu' is such a cuter and softer sentence ender than 'nyo'
-Since her hair colour is brown, she's cheaper to cosplay as.

I like Dejiko and Rabi too, but Puchiko will always be my favourite. ^-^

Yes, yes, yes. I think I'm most like her. I'm cosplaying as her next because I'm short and I can make my hair look like hers easily ^^

Oh, I never said Puchiko wasn't awesome. XD she's my absolute favorite. She kicks ass.

She does indeed.

I think her Japanese voice actress does an amazing job. I love that little 'puy-pu-puy' mumble thing Puchiko says when she's wondering about. I also can't believe her voice actress (I think she's called Miyuki something... I'm sorry, her name's escaped me) is about the same age as me.

Come to think of it, all the seiyuu in Di Gi Charat do a brilliant job. They capture the insane feeling of the show perfectly!
