The term "kun" generally refers to boys, which may indicate (though does not outright confirm) that Penelope was originally intended to be male. In the Tottoko Hamutaro Anime Dechu, Penelope is named "Chibimaru- kun" instead of "- chan".As aforementioned, it is stated that Penelope is Pashmina's sister in later media. In Tottoko Hamutaro: Hamuchanzu de Gozaimachu! Vol.1, Penelope is the younger sister of Bijou.She is also known to use Ham-Chat words in the games. In a few English episodes, she says "badda-badda" and "ticky-ticky" as she runs or walks, though this may have been an error on the dubber's part. Penelope may know more words than just "ookyoo" and "ookwee", "ookwaa".The official Hamtaro website was also changed Penelope's word to the new one the day the episode was released. Pashmina actually says early in the episode that she was "looking forward to showing off new word". The first time she says "ookwee" is in The Precious Letter!, and Hamtaro even acknowledges it. The English dub changed "Ookyoo" into to "Ookwee" in later episodes, as the former could sound like a certain expletive phrase starting with the letter F.May come from the italian word "timido" which means "shy" Spanish spelling of Penelope same meaning as English The weaving theme may be chosen to complement Pashmina's fabric-based name.įrench spelling of Penelope same meaning as English May come from the Greek Mythological Penelope, whose one of the name meanings is "face that is hard to decipher", an ironic contrast to Hamtaro's Penelope whose emotion is easily understood. The "maru" part of the name is mostly used in male names such as "Ushiwakamaru". She also appears in some of the manga and books without her blanket.Ĭhibimaru literally translates to "little round one".A handful of Hamtaro merchandise pieces, including the Hamtaro Origami book, show her without the blanket.In Hamtaro: Ham-Hams Unite!, she takes her blanket off momentarily when going back to the Ham-Ham Clubhouse with Hamtaro.In Jingle, the Wanderer, for a split-second frame, she can briefly be seen without her blanket when she and Hamtaro fall out of Laura's bag.She can also be seen without her blanket in the opening when she is asleep in the bed next to other Ham-Hams. In Opening #1 of the English dub, she is seen throwing her blanket up in the air during the train segment.While Penelope is almost never seen without her blanket, there are a few cameos of her true look: Visually, Marron also closely resembles the look of Penelope without her blanket, with similar fur colors and patterns. They are also of similar height (very short), which is unique to most of the other Ham-Hams. From then on, the two are very friendly whenever they see each other. She seems to understand what Penelope is saying.
Marron develops a friendship with Penelope in Marron's Autumn Festival, when Penelope helps Marron pick herself back up, and helps stop a river from overflowing using Fukusuke. Nonetheless, the two are still the best of friends. Due to her childlike nature, Penelope also sometimes misunderstands Pashmina's feelings towards her most notably during the events of Penelope's Dream. Penelope is shown to get very jealous if Pashmina is occupied as seen in episodes like Watching Over Cute Penelope and Knitting Barrette, where Penelope is babysit by others while Pashmina is out, and she gets very upset about it.
Originally, it was said that their relationship was "like sisters" but later on, it was confirmed that they were sisters (first revealed in Hamtaro: Ham-Hams Unite!, when saying "Hammo" to Pashmina). Pashmina acts like a big sister to Penelope, and seems to be one of the only characters that understand what the little Ham-Ham says. There are few instances where they are separated, much to their reluctance. Pashmina and Penelope are always together. Unlike the other Ham-Hams, and perhaps because of her young age, Penelope can't say anything more than 'Ookwee!' or 'Ookyoo!' ('Ukyu!' in the original Japanese version). In season three, she has shown some cross-species affection for Herbert the Pig, a boy by the name of Ethan (Kylie's younger cousin), and a rabbit at Ethan's school. Being innocent and naive, due to her age, she gets into trouble more often than most of the other Ham-Hams. Although she is friendly to everyone, she feels particularly attached to Pashmina. Penelope is usually never seen without the cover of her yellow blanket. Penelope is the youngest member of the Ham-Ham gang, and is owned by Kylie.
