While very little is known about the series, one can assume the plot is similar to [[Ritsuko Kawai|Ritsuko Kawai's]] original manga chapters. But from what is known, Hamtaro is owned by a girl named Natsumi and spends his days frolicking with his friends. He is also notably the only hamster who speaks, and he is voiced by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naomi_Nagasawa/ Nao Nagasawa]. |

This article is about the direct-to-video series. If you are looking for the 2011 re-airing of Hamtaro, please go to Tottoko Hamutaro Dechu.
Tottoko Hamutaro: Anime Dechu! (とっとこ ハム太郎 ヤニメ でちゆ) is a direct-to-VHS series released on September 15, 1999. This was the first attempt at an animated adaptation of Hamtaro, and consists of four episodes.
Background
For reasons as of yet unknown, Tottoko Hamutaro: Anime Dechu was never made widely available for public viewing. There were only two known instances of the series being distributed. The first was that Hamtaro's licensor, Shogakukan, gave out free copies of the VHS to its employees who had children of elementary-school age. The VHS could also be purchased for 1200¥ (equivalent to about $10 USD) via mail-order only (from magazine page pictured right).
As a result, very little evidence of the series' existence can be found online today, save for a few listings in Japanese databases.
Plot
While very little is known about the series, one can assume the plot is similar to Ritsuko Kawai's original manga chapters. But from what is known, Hamtaro is owned by a girl named Natsumi and spends his days frolicking with his friends. He is also notably the only hamster who speaks, and he is voiced by Nao Nagasawa.
