Puniru first appears as a slime that resembles a penguin-like creature created by Kotaro Kawaii during a childhood experiment. Years later, Puniru gains the ability to transform into a child-like humanoid form in hopes of being recognized for her cuteness by Kotaro, who is now a junior high student with his own romantic interests.

In her slime form, Puniru’s design features a bright palette of magenta and aqua, often reflected in her hair when she adopts humanoid appearances. In human form, she stands around 123 cm tall and retains recognizable elements from her original slime design, such as her top hat and vibrant colors.

Puniru’s personality is playful, naïve, and driven by her desire to be deemed “cute” by Kotaro. Due to her slime origins, she is often oblivious to human social cues, giving her an innocent charm that both amuses and endears her to viewers. She can be gluttonous and sometimes jealous, especially when other “cute” things capture Kotaro’s attention.

The relationships Puniru forms throughout the series add emotional depth to her character. Her bond with her creator Kotaro is central, reflecting friendship, longing, and growth. Puniru also interacts with other characters such as Alice Okanega, who acts as a rival in cuteness, and classmates who influence her adventures.
