The popularity of Hoihoi-san units rises not only as a night time extermination unit, but for doll collectors as well! However, when a rival company introduces its own tiny extermination robots a new form of corporate sabotage begins, as they target not only the insects, but all Hoihoi-san units themselves!

add recBoth anime involve little dolls fighting; in hoi hoi san the dolls use guns, and in rozen maiden they use magic. The plots and genres are much different but the general mood and action will probably make you like both.
I'm not sure why, but when watching HoiHoi-san, I was immediately reminded of Rozen Maiden. The first striking similarity is the characters - dolls coming to life and fighting one another. Rozen Maiden features magical battles and is a little more restrained than HoiHoi...
However, the tongue-in-cheek feel of both shows should endear you to both of these.

add recIn both anime cute, toys/toylike creations pack a mean punch, shocking many of the unexpecting human witnesses. The cuteness in appearance and some actions are contrasted with bursts of energetic violence.
