The daily lives of the idols and staff of the talent agency 765 Production are changed when the idols meet miniaturized versions of themselves known as lit. petit idol, each with their own unique personalities.

• Yukipo • Azumi Asakura • The Puchidol version of Yukiho Hagiwara. A timid Puchidol who enjoys tea and often takes rests, either in boxes or holes that she has dug herself. She grows a tanuki tail when it is cold. • Afu • Akiko Hasegawa • The Puchidol version of Miki Hoshii. A cheeky Puchidol who loves eating onigiri; she sleeps so heavily that onigiri is the only reliable way to wake her up. Her hair turns brown and shorter in the summer. • Chihya • Asami Imai • The Puchidol version of Chihaya Kisaragi. A Puchidol who enjoys skinship with flat-chested girls but is violent towards larger chested girls, the exception being Ritsuko. In the winter, her hair grows to great lengths, also forming cat-like ears. • Harukasan • Eriko Nakamura • The Puchidol version of Haruka Amami. She is similar to Gremlins in that she multiplies when coming into contact with water, hates bright sunlight, and turns vicious when eating snacks after midnight. She also changes into a larger version often used as transport when in a large body of water. • Yayo • Mayako Nigo • The Puchidol version of Yayoi Takatsuki. A curious Puchidol who reacts to the sound of money being dropped, often seen catching a 10 yen coin after one bounce. Her hair puffs out during cold weather and she grows bamboo shoots in the spring. • Chicchan • Naomi Wakabayashi • The Puchidol version of Ritsuko Akizuki. Like Ritsuko, she is a busy worker and is often ordering the other Puchidols around. • Koami Komami • Asami Shimoda • The Puchidol versions of Ami and Mami Futami. A pair of mischievous Puchidols who love to play pranks on others. • Piyo Piyo • Juri Takita • The Puchidol version of Kotori Otonashi. A very capable Puchidol who is better at her job than Kotori herself. She is also able to fly. • Makochi • Hiromi Hirata • The Puchidol version of Makoto Kikuchi. A tough Puchidol who is incredibly strong and also has healing powers. She often gains weight due to Makoto overfeeding her. • Miurasan • Chiaki Takahashi • The Puchidol version of Azusa Miura. A ditzy Puchidol who has the habit of teleporting herself, and anyone near her, to a random location upon hearing sharp noises. • Io • Rie Kugimiya • The Puchidol version of Iori Minase. A tsundere Puchidol who is capable of firing laser beams from her forehead. • Chibiki • Manami Numakura • The Puchidol version of Hibiki Ganaha. An easily-frightened Puchidol who summons various animals whenever she starts crying or gets frightened. • Takanya • Yumi Hara • The Puchidol version of Takane Shijou. A refined Puchidol who mainly communicates in writing kanji and loves eating ramen.
