Hamtaro

This episode is the first time any student tried to kiss someone.

When the Ham-Hams introduce themselves to Sparkle, Sandy and Maxwell jump together.

Glitter's height is 4'2''.

On the official Hamtaro website, on this episode's page you see a poster that has Sparkle's picture on it and her name is displayed as Kururin-chan. But in the episode, the poster says Sparkle.

Sparkle's Japanese name is Kururin-chan.

When the Ham-Hams do their "goofy face parade," Bijou is the only one embarassed enough to blush.

The announcer at the concert is the same strange man who narrated the race in "Brandy's Big Race."

Laura's shorts do dry quickly. Just a shot or two after she washes them they're dry as a bone.

The yellow tape surrounding the stage read "KEEP OUT" in both English and Japanese characters. (Asssuming that's what the Japanese characters said.)

First aired as part of the "Ham-Ham Marathon," a four-episode marathon of new Hamtaro episodes from 5-7 P.M. eastern time on the Cartoon Network.

Throughout the marathon, the theme at the end of the episodes was not spoken over by a promo for another Cartoon Network program as it usually is.
