Donohamu

Note: This character's name is derived from Japanese, as no official English name is known.

Donohamu (とのハムさま) is a hamster who appears in the Hamuchanzu de Gozaimachu! manga series. He carries the title of both "Dono/Tono" (meaning "lord" or "master", in a Feudalistic way), and "Sama" (of a higher rank than others). Despite his high titles and popularity, he has a laid-back attitude, and works at a leisurely pace.

Donohamu did not have any major roles in any Hamtaro media; outside of appearing on a few trading cards, and having small cameos in Gozaimachu! Vol.2 and Vol.3. There is also an XLC Co. figure of him.

Creation[]

Donohamu was created for, and the winner of, a Hamtaro "Friend Contest" in 2000. The contest was held in the Shogakukan Learning Magazines, and the character was created by a Sixth Grade student.^[1] However, any further information about his creation (including the original design submission) is unknown.
