Laura and the Seven Hamsters (とっとこスターだ!ハム太郎 ) is the 76th episode of the anime series Hamtaro .
In this take on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Laura and Hamtaro dream that they are a part of the story filling in for the roles of the classic fairy tale.
Plot Summary [ ]
Laura and Hamtaro are curled up on the couch one night watching television when Glitter and Sparkle come on the air for a press conference! Laura and Hamtaro soon grow sleepy though and they drift off into a dream where they too become the stars of a show… In their dream, Laura and the Ham-Hams are going to be in a movie called “Laura and the Seven Hamsters”, directed by none-other than the suspiciously quick-to-snooze Elder Ham . But acting isn’t all glitter and gold, our friends find out all too soon. The dream quickly takes a twist as our amateur actors struggle to stand still, work together and remember their lines. Cut after cut, it’s up to Hamtaro to somehow keep everyone from getting discouraged!
Trivia [ ]
In Japan, this episode aired the day before Hamtaro: Adventures in Ham-Ham Land was released in cinemas.
