Honen,[1] also known as Honhen[2] or Bone Fish,[2] are enemies in Sarasaland that appear in Super Mario Land. According to the game's instruction manual, they are the skeletons of Torion eaten by Tatanga.

History[edit]

Super Mario Land[edit]

Honen jump vertically out of the waters of the Muda Kingdom at regular intervals. They are one of two undead enemies to appear in the game, the other being Pionpi. They can easily be defeated by stomping on their heads or by simply standing above them, or by hitting them with a Superball (despite the game's instruction manual stating that they are immune to them). Defeating one is worth 100 points. Honen appear in World 2-1 and World 2-3.

Honen are one of the few variants of enemies to appear before the base enemy, with the level introducing them being two levels before the Torion's debut level (World 2-3).

Super Mario Land (manga)[edit]

In the Super Mario Land manga, Tatanga creates three Honen after eating some Torion that dared to make jokes about his relationship with Daisy, which he then sends to Muda Kingdom. While avoiding two of the Honen, Mario is bitten by the third one on the bottom. The pain makes him jump out of his pants, leaving him naked and exposed, flustering Mecha Kuribō (who is Princess Peach in disguise). Mario then retrieves his overalls and stomps on the enemy.

Full of energy, even when bony

It is said to be a Torion that was eaten by Tatanga and became a skeleton. Even when they become bones, they still leap out of the sea with great force. Superballs will not work, but you can knock it down by stepping on it from above.
