~Welcome to Ham-Ham Paradise Forums!~
I hope you're all enjoying the newly revived forums, everyone! It has been long overdue that HHP were restored to the days of old. As one of the most popular Hamtaro websites on the Internet, and as a hub for many of the hardest-to-find episodes, HHP has always served as a testament to the history of Hamtaro. Now that the forum is restored, and members old and new regroup, it's time to introduce yourselves. Even if you already know almost everyone here, it's been a few years, and people change! Please fill out this template and introduce yourself to everyone here.
Please enjoy yourselves, and make sure to read the Forum Rules thread!

1. Tell us a bit about yourself! (What's your name, age, and gender, what country do you come from, what are your hobbies etc.) The name is Blckflyn(BlackFelyne). I am a 22 year old young man from the good ol' sunshine state of Florida. It's boring as heck here. The name basically tells one little fact about myself: I am a member of the Furry Fandom, favoring a black cat. I'm a gamer, owning a whole myriad of systems to game on, and I'm somewhat of an amateur artist.
2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? Hamtaro was a TV show I discovered in my younger years that I grew really fond of because my family actually owned a lot of hamsters. I loved them, and I loved the show, and always did my best to try and catch it when I woke up in the morning, or got out of school. I discovered HHP mainly through google searching, and in fact I was frequent here when things were more lively, under the name DNR (Which some still know me by.) It helped me to relive some of my younger years because lets face it, I am 22 and I STILL love Hamtaro.
3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them! I still frequent DeviantArt, and sometimes Tumblr, but I'm not really on too many sites. On dA I draw mostly what comes to mind, but hamster and pokemon would make up the bulk of it. I USED to have another DA...but other issues led me to close it.
4. Favorite Music? Anything that I find relatively catchy, or things I can picture images to in my head. It's very VARIED, so I can't just stick one genre into the spot.
5. Favorite Movie? The Secret of NimH.
6. Favorite Quote? "That works out just fine" - Me. Don't ask. Not a lot of quotes really inspire me.
7. Favorite Color? It's blue.
8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself. An interesting fact...? Hm... I am extremely into the art of swordplay. Fencing, kenjustsu, and other many varieties of martial arts. In high school I was a part of my school's fencing club, which led me also to become a sword collector.

1. Tell us a bit about yourself! (What's your name, age, and gender, what country do you come from, what are your hobbies etc.) I used to go by the name Ultima-Codebreaker in the last forum, so I changed my name to something fresh. Call me Leon. I'm 19, Male, living in Taguig City, Philippines. Hobbies include reading books and listening to MP3's~2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? I was around 8-9 when Hamtaro was dubbed in the Philippines... And my mornings were never complete without it, in fact I nearly got absent because I wanted to watched the series so badly. XD And as for the HHP part, I was busy looking for some fan websites (with HHF being the first, followed by the deceased HHK) before I wound up here. 3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them! Nope, no other forums unless social websites like FB and Twitter count. :34. Favorite Music? Electronica, classical, dubstep, heavy metal? Whatever fits the mood and situation. 5. Favorite Movie? Well, in terms of genre, animation always wins.6. Favorite Quote? "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye." (from The Little Prince)
7. Favorite Color? Sky blue and green, baby~8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself. Silent and introverted yet socialite when anime is involved~

1. Tell us a bit about yourself! (What's your name, age, and gender, what country do you come from, what are your hobbies etc.) I'm Mimitchi, though these days I go by laufiend (lack of capitalization is a stylistic choice lol). I'm 20 years old, female, from Vancouver, Canada. 2nd year student at the University of British Columbia. Currently in the faculty of arts, and was going for a degree in film studies.. but then I took an astronomy course that completely changed my life. I'm now determined to make up for my mistakes in high school (aka not taking pre-calculus and physics).. because I want to become an astronomer. It'll be a longass road, but this is the most passionate I've felt about anything since I abandoned my piano ambitions.Asides being a space geek, I love music and photography. I used to draw a lot when I was younger, as well as make random webdesigns.. I rarely webdesign anymore, and I expect my skills are now pretty outdated.. (who even uses tables anymore lmfao). 2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? I got a call from my friend when I was 8 years old, and she asked me "hey, do you watch Hamutaro?" From there, I never missed an episode. I would get up at 6AM just to record it on a VHS tape before school.. and at school, everyone knew me as that girl who was really good at drawing Hamtaro characters. (ha, I used to be the Sailor Moon artist!) As for how I "found out about HHP".... I created HHP. I was inspired by Haru Megami herself, creator of the famous (and now gone) Ham-Ham Kingdom. That site was absolutely huge for the fandom about a decade ago, and I joined its forums when I was 11. By then, I had already been experimenting with HTML for a few months, and it didn't take me long to get a hang of making graphics. It has now been more than nine years since I began HHP.. god, has it really? Maybe I should make a new layout for its 10th anniversary...
I'm no longer a die-hard fan of Hamtaro, though considering I made this damn site, I definitely still have my knowledge of it! 3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them! I am very active on tumblr, where I mostly reblog funny stuff. I also have a deviantart account, where you can find my photography and old anime fanart.. though it rarely gets updated. 4. Favorite Music? Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Davichi, X Japan, Versailles, Frédéric Chopin, Ludwig van Beethoven, Johann Sebastian Bach, Joe Hisaishi, Queen, SS501, DBSK, Fall Out Boy5. Favorite Movie? Laputa: Castle in the Sky6. Favorite Quote? The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff. - Carl Sagan7. Favorite Color? Red8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself. I really love Lolita fashion! I have a modest collection of these clothes, though I rarely wear them.. mostly because I need to lose a few pounds, because half it barely fits me anymore. *cries*

1. Tell us a bit about yourself! (What's your name, age, and gender, what country do you come from, what are your hobbies etc.)
My Name is Adriel c: I'm often known as "Klonoa13" on most sites I go to. I'm a male, 20 years old, and I live in Houston, Texas. My Hobbies are Video Games (Both Retro and Modern) Anime, and Drawing, though I am not a fantastic artist compare to everyone else on here.
2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? I once caught glimpse of Hamtaro when the English Dub premiered on Toonami before it was moved to Cartoon Network's Regular Line-Up. I've have had quite the fond memories watching the anime as a little kid. cX Over the years ever since the dub was cancelled and removed from Cartoon Network, I had somewhat forgotten about the Anime until around 2007 or 2008 when I started using the internet and finding various fan-sites dedicated to the Franchise. I discovered HHP When it was just a Basic Hamtaro Fan-Site while Ham-Ham Kingdom was the Number #1 fan-site for Hamtaro before it's eventual shut down. Since then, I had followed HHP when it become a much bigger site and eventually becoming one of the biggest hamtaro fan-site ever made with so many media content and everything related to the franchise included compare to what other fan-sites had at the time.
3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them!
I'm on alot of sites, but I mainly hang out on DeviantArt, Facebook, Tumblr, and Youtube.
4. Favorite Music?
Often I listen to OST's from Video Games, but in terms of genre, I'm pretty much a fan of most of them cX it depends on the music itself.
5. Favorite Movie?
I don't really have a favorite list of movies, but I suppose if I had to choose one, it would be either the Sonic OVA Movie, or The Lego Movie.
6. Favorite Quote?
"You might know everything I'm going to do, but that's not going to help you since I know everything you're going to do! Strange isn't it? " - Sonic The Hedgehog (From the OVA Movie)
7. Favorite Color?
Blue c:
8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself.
There's not really much I can say about myself, but I suppose I can bring out the fact that I wasn't originally someone that was into drawing much until a few friends encouraged me to try drawing, which led me to finally actually start drawing rather than resorting to using bases and whatnot like I used to back in my early years.

1. Tell us a bit about yourself! (What's your name, age, and gender, what country do you come from, what are your hobbies etc.) Hey, everyone! I'm Spacey, a 21-year-old female. I draw a lot and play a lot of video games. That's about all I have time for when it comes to hobbies, and I sleep very little! I draw a lot of comics now because I love creating characters and stories. My actual future career path, however, lies in the realm of psychology.2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? I didn't have cable as a kid, but I did have the VHS for the first episode and the three-episode VHS with Sandy x Maxwell, Stan joining the club, and Laura's grandmother finding her old bestie. (This is why I ship Sandy and Maxwell, by the way!) After that, the only things maintaining my interest in Hamtaro were the video games: Unite, Heartbreak and Games. They are all fantastic. I faded out of drawing Hamtaro for a while, but eventually I started drawing Hamtaro characters on my dA. This is how I found the Hamtaro fandom and found the HHP group. Their website wasn't working for me back then. So I just joined the forums after they said it was revived!3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them! I'm quiet on a lot of them, but yes... deviantART, Tumblr, SmackJeeves, and recently Twitter.4. Favorite Music? I will listen to and enjoy most music. However, my biggest favorites have gotta be rock, metal and cinematic/epic.5. Favorite Movie? Big Fish. I don't watch many movies, however.6. Favorite Quote? "The important thing is not how long you live...It's what you accomplish with your life." - Grovyle, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon "A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him, and in that way he becomes immortal." - Will Bloom, Big Fish
7. Favorite Color? GREEN ALL THE WAYYY
8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself.
Uhhh........ I'm anemic??? Also I have a ton of Hamtaro fan-characters and a season of "episodes" (summaries) I wrote for fun.

1. Tell us a bit about yourself! (What's your name, age, and gender, what country do you come from, what are your hobbies etc.) hi guys! i'm vivian, i'm 15 years old and a female, from the united states. (actually, klonoa13, i'm also from houston! ayee h-town buddies haha) i really like sleeping, but whenever i'm feeling extra productive, i like to draw, read, and volunteer. 2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? i remember i got the ham ham rainbow rescue game as a child, and i not only enjoyed the game to bits, but i also found the characters ridiculously cute, but i didn't actually look up who the characters were / where they came from until recently. but once i did, i more or less got sucked into the show, and i've loved it since. i found hhp while looking for some information about the bijou / hamtaro pairing heh. 3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them! i'm on a few here and there (i used to be pretty active on quite a few rpg sites when i was like 8), like the tumblr and facebook. i'm also a coder at asianfanfics (i know, the name is kinda sketchy lol) 4. Favorite Music? um i like to think i'm pretty open with different genres of music, but i tend to enjoy pop, rock, alternative, indie, folk, and r&b. 5. Favorite Movie? i don't really watch movies haha. i really liked the soundtrack and directing for the 2005 version of Pride & Prejudice...? it was flawlessly executed (even though i found the actual plot and how they handled the story to be a bit jarring as an avid Pride & Prejudice fan) umm maybe like toy story? a classic, really. 6. Favorite Quote? "hell is empty and all the devils are here." - William Shakespeare 7. Favorite Color? i really like white, as well as blue. 8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself. umm i was born left-handed, but my kindergarten classroom lacked practice workbooks that taught how to write left-handed (because the american education system is just that great), so i was more or less forced to learn how to write right-handed as a child because of huge budget cuts.

1. Tell us a bit about yourself. My “tag” is mcr211196 but my real name is Matthew. I am an 18-year-old male from Cavite, Philippines (I now reside in Ontario, Canada and I’m currently homesick). My hobbies include playing the piano, guitar, harmonica, and percussion instruments; smashing shuttlecocks in badminton, collecting books, reading, writing stories, and riding my bike.
2. What got you into Hamtaro? How did you find HHP? It’s a tricky and long story. I think I’ve watch a few episodes while I was still in the Philippines. However, it wasn’t until I came here to Canada in 2008 that I became a “Ham-thusiast”. My sister received a GameBoy Advance SP from one of our friends and the game it contained turned out to be Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak. When she received a DSi, she abandoned the older console, so I just took it and declared it as mine. I played the game and finished it. And then I played it again and again and... again. I lost interest in Hamtaro for short while, but after a series of events, I felt nostalgic and started playing Hamtaro online. Besides Ham-Ham Heartbreak, I’ve alos played Ham-Hams Unite, Rainbow Rescue, and Ham-Ham Games. Just last year (2014), I was searching for Tagalog-dubbed episodes of Hamtaro, which is so rare online, I only found stub clips. So, I just watch Hamtaro in English and in Japanese (with or without subtitles). Last year, I found Ham-Ham Paradise while trying to search for Hamtaro episodes online, and it was (and still is) one of the top sites that offer Hamtaro stuff. At first, I did not bother checking it. But my wanting to find out more about the “lost episodes” (these are, episodes beyond the “104 + 3½” released in English), I checked it out. They have amassed a great collection of episodes, music, fan-fictions, and fan arts. I’ve been watching episodes subbed by HHP’s subsidiary, Paradise Hamsubs. I’ve even listened to some of the songs they have in store.
3. Social networks. I have Facebook. Nothing much to tell asides from: I post drawings and recordings of me singing Hamtaro songs on the Paradise Hamsubs page. I’m also a part of a church group called Arise International Ministries. I also have Yahoo! Mail.
4. Favourite music. I like to listen and sing to Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) (Michael W. Smith, Chris Tomlin…), Gospel, Hymns, Rock, Country (Neil Young, John Denver…), Pop, and Military Marching Music.
5. Favourite movies. My favourite movies include The Land Before Time, The Rescuers, The Secret of NimH, The Jungle Book, The King and I, Valiant, The Little Polar Bear, and The Sound of Music.
6. Favourite quote. “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” ~ Proverbs 22:6
7. Favourite colour. My favourite colour is red, the colour of passion and love.
8. Interesting facts. - I like brie cheese, blue cheese, sunflower seeds, fruits, and nuts. - My favourite Ham-Ham is Penelope and my favourite supporting character is Bo. - I'm a big joker. Unfortunately, almost no one understands my jokes. - I'm very patriotic. - Speaking in front of a crowd makes me feel uncomfortable. - I have a set of nicknames which includes "Bokyo", "Toks", "Toki", "Bokyokis", and "Kyo".

Well... I'm an artist. So, I constantly art. Besides that, I enjoy video games and the company of furrier species. 2. What got you into Hamtaro originally? How did you find out about HHP? A long time ago when I was in middle school I finally was allowed access to the internet. With my newfound freedom, I decided to go on youtube (since I had no idea where else to go) and eventually stumbled on some Hamtaro AMV's. I searched up more about it because it was just so wonderful and found myself on HHP in order to actually watch episodes. I'm getting super nostalgic just thinking about it.... I started to fall out of Hamtaro towards upper-high school but then, after watching some episodes recently over the last winter break, found that it is still one of my favorite shows. 3. Are you apart of any other online communities? Tell us about them! Well.... I'm actually usually super quiet but I've been trying to integrate myself. I am often on a lot of Brony sites and video's... with Legends of Equestria being the only Brony forum I've joined. I'm on DA as well... cloudwilk.deviantart.com/ Also... link in my sig to the major project I've been working on's- The D's- facebook page. 4. Favorite Music? I like a lot of things. Every genre serves a certain purpose best. Mostly, though, I like zany and catchy songs. I particularly find myself listening to Brony music... 5. Favorite Movie? Bambi 6. Favorite Quote? "For what would if profit him if he gained the whole world but looses his soul?" -Matthew 16:26 7. Favorite Color? Sky blue and white 8. Tell us one interesting fact about yourself.
