(three episodes watched) Why do I think that this is someone's knock-off or imitation of the 296 episode cute-n-cuddly Hamtaro, the Hamster (ANIDB) series. The story line is the same - cute talking animals living the world of people and having various animal-type adventures. Last updated Friday, February 22 2008.

(One episode watched): The basic premise of this show, an intelligent small mammal living with a human in an apartment, immediately reminded me of Oruchuban Ebichu. At first I wondered if this might be a children's series (which Ebichu most certainly was not), which I didn't want, but the fact that the laconic owner is usually drawn in a detailed, adult manner encouraged me to watch. An Okojo seems to be a rare and valuable weasel/ferret-like creature from Northern Japan. One potential problem is that "Okopy" strikes me as annoying and unfriendly, though this may change. The mouse, however, is cute and loveable. The way the narrator contributes to jokes reminded me of Potemayo. The episode consisted of two sub-plots, Okopy's arrival and his (hers?) being taken to a veterinarian. This first episode was fairly amusing--I got a lot of small laughs and at least one big one--and I'm leaning towards good as my verdict on this show. I was startled, however, to see that there are no less than 51 episodes, which would be quite a commitment of time. Last updated Friday, February 22 2008.
