He had a short crush on Himespetchi in episode 129, because he lost his memory. He even went as far as calling her 'My Honey'. However, after he hit his head again and got his memory back, his love for Princess Tamako rather than Himespetchi returned.
In Other Tamagotchi Media
Prince Tamahiko appears in Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2. He gets engaged to Princess Tamako after all of the shops are upgraded, but Princess Tamako cancels the engagement because she wants to open shops like Mametchi, Memetchi, and Kuchipatchi.
Name Origin
Tama (たま) is likely from Tamagotchi. Hiko (ひこ) is a Japanese suffix for boys' names. In his Japanese name, ōji (おうじ) means "prince".
Trivia
- In his standard artwork, Prince Tamahiko's horse looks like a normal horse. However, in the anime, his horse does not seem to be real because it has a spring at the bottom and only moves by bouncing.
