History

Ultraman Dyna

Hanejiro was originally an animal worshiped by the Alien Fabiras as a god and bringer of good fortune and peace. However, due to the destruction of planet Fabiras, Hanejiro's kind, Mukkito, was almost completely wiped out. As Hanejiro and the Alien Fabiras drifted endlessly for a planet, they came across Planet Merani. The Fabiras immediately sent out a research team, who took with them Hanejiro for good luck.

However, the Fabiras did not realize that the planet had a biological weapon: Mons-Ahgar, stationed on it, and the research team was completely wiped out, besides Hanejiro, who fainted and was left alive by Mons-Ahgar, thinking it had died.

Later, when Super GUTS went to research Planet Merani, Asuka and Nakajima encountered Hanejiro, he led them to the control room of the planet. The scheme was uncovered, and Mons-Ahgar was released. While Nakajima escaped, Asuka was trapped under stone and had his Lieflasher away where he cannot reach it. Hanejiro then gave the Lieflasher to Asuka, allowing him to transform.

Later, after Ultraman Dyna defeated Mons-Ahgar, Hanejiro was trapped on the imploding planet and was rescued by Dyna and taken aboard the GUTS Eagle, where he was named the Super GUTS mascot and also renamed Hanejiro. The Phantom Shooting Star

Hanejiro was kidnapped by Prof. Otomo to the Zarina Zone for extraction of his knowledge genes and to implant them onto Prof. Otomo's Hyper Clone Monster: Neosaurus. However, the extraction was halted by Super GUTS and Prof. Otomo's Clone Silvergon attacked his research. While Hanejiro was rescued and still fainted, Otomo unleashed Neosaurus, who accidentally destroyed the research center and went wild, killing Otomo in the confusion. After Ultraman Dyna defeated Neosaurus, Hanejiro faked his death to joke with Asuka before being rescued. Battle! Monster Island

Hanejiro's people, the Alien Fabiras, became frustrated from their previous attempt to inhabit Planet Miranie and has decided to use force and take away Earth. However, due to Hanejiro's projection of the laughter he shared with the Earthlings, Alien Fabiras B learned that one cannot take back Laughter nor peace with force. However, Alien Fabiras A, under the influence of the Magical Stone from Planet Muzan, turned giant-sized and fought Ultraman Dyna, and Dyna was only able to defeat the giant after Hanejiro showed Dyna where the Magical Stone was. However, after the fight, Alien Fabiras B announced Hanejiro's decision: To be with the Fabiras again and help them endure their life of drifting. Farewell Hanejiro

Trivia

  • Hanejiro is voiced by Junko Kawashima (河島 順子, Kawashima Junko).
  • Originally it was meant to be named as "Pam" (パム, Pamu), based on its repeated phrase but was quickly renamed due to a copyright violation.
  • During the ending credits of episode 47, an image of Hanejiro performing a Rise Pose can be seen, dubbed by fans as "Ultra-Hane".

Ultraman Dyna: The Return of Hanejiro

Hanejiro returned to Earth in the form of an yellow egg, which fell into the hands of the bumbling Alien Meji Trio. The three, despite being villains, were very protective of him and protected him from prying eyes until Hanejiro returned to Super GUTS. After Dyna was defeated by One-Z, Hanejiro helped to destroy the menace by dropping Pudgy Garaon into the monster's brain case. Hanejiro was later taken away once again by the Alien Fabiras (off-screen). Ultraman Dyna: The Return of Hanejiro
