An even more childish Hamtaro.

Series in more sentences:
Frown profusely, as a hamster is being thrown across the room by an owner who truly deserves her awful boyfriend, cringe at the unnecessary one-frame sex scenes, yawn at the boring storylines, shake your head at the animal abuse. Ebichu!

Series in one selective, crusty image:

Years ago, I saw a funny scene from this anime pop up on my Facebook timeline. It gave me high hopes for what ended up being a total mess.

This one really disappointed me.

The storylines in each episode are extremely boring for adults to sit through, while the jokes and most of the scenes are unsuitable for children. It's like this anime was made for nobody.
The only entertaining thing it offered was the strange crush this one guy had on the hamster, and I suppose the perverted caller who sometimes dials the owner for no reason, but you don't see and hear nearly enough of these characters.

The hamster is annoying as all Hell. She always utters the same jokes and shouts the same swear words. Her best performance was definitely getting slapped against the wall by her owner.
Speaking of the woman, she has nothing redeemable about her at all. An outright horrid person you couldn't cheer for if you tried. And could you believe it, her boyfriend is even worse.
Enjoy and feel inspired, as you watch the loving relationship of a guy who cheats all the time and a woman who acts likes she's tough, but has no self-respect and keeps spreading her legs for the swine anyway.

In the minds of the creators this was probably a funny running gag, but it annoyed me. No one wants to see a mismatched pairing if there's no resolve at the end. I expected them to break up in the first episode, but they stay together for the entire series. Why?
Normally, abusive relationships in fiction are portrayed so that you, the viewer, can eagerly await the break-up for the good of the character you care about, but I just wanted these two to break up so I didn't have to sit there and watch two extremely stupid people going at it all the time.

Ebichu is a failure of a comedy, and if the main characters are trash, why should the viewer care about anything that happens?
If you've ever seen the same phone call scene I have, I can promise you it's pretty much the only funny joke the entire series has to offer. But even that scene becomes ruined after sitting through all the episodes; as the hamster shouts profanities concerning the female crotch all of the time.

Good job being a repetitive bore, Ebichu.
