February 9th, Happy Birthday Sparkle!

Sparkle is one of the secondary Ham-Hams that has appeared the most on the series. She is well-known to the Ham-Hams and they look up to her a lot, since she is an idol. Sparkle, however, doesn’t like the Ham-Hams since the beginning, but slowly grows on them and gets caught on their adventures.

Sparkle is an idol hamster that has a similar design to Bijou, but also takes some design ideas from Hamtaro. Her pigtails are more “wild” than Bijou’s combed ones, and she is one of the few hamsters whose design is a straight line crossing through the forehead. She sports a butt mark in the shape of a heart, mimicking Hamtaro’s spotted one.

Sparkle takes her work rather seriously, not like her owner, Glitter. Although they both aim to be top idols, Sparkle is usually more centered on work while Glitter prefers to slack off and goof around.

Sparkle’s Japanese name is Kururin-chan which can be translated as “Chestnut”. Her owner, Glitter, Japanese name is Kurumi-chan which can be translated as “Walnut”. As you can see, both Japanese and English dubs gave them matching puns.

Sparkle finishes most of her sentences with “nano”, a catchphrase much like Hamtaro’s “nanoda”. At first, she accompanied this with a cute smiley pose, but in later episodes she just adds it to most of her sentences regardless. She says it so much that the Ham-Hams have learned to copy her whenever she shows up.

Sparkle is a rather rowdy hamster, very straightforward and focused hamster. Whatever she focus on, she does her best to make it happen. She is also well-versed in love and, later on, learns English as she moves to America with her owner.

Sparkle was first introduced on Episode 54, when a new student transfers into Laura’s school. It happens to be Glitter, and Sparkle comes with her. Sparkle gets to know the Ham-Hams, but she wants nothing to do with them.

Relationships

Sparkle is known for being… rather active in her love experience.

She had a crush on Omar, whom she hoped could make herself a princess, but that was short-lived.

After that, she moved on to her true crush and love interest during most of the series: Hamtaro, but, of course, Hamtaro is oblivious to Sparkle, no matter how many times she has tried to win him over.

In fact, the anime has almost the same number of episodes of Sparkle trying to win Hamtaro over than the other most acceptable option, that is Bijou trying to win Hamtaro over.
