Hanatare-kun, also known as Hanatare, is a nasal-mucus sprite residing in Shizuku Forest, part of the "Pururun! Shizuku-chan" universe. He belongs to a group of bodily fluid-themed sprites, including Hanaji-kun (nosebleed) and Yodare-kun (slobber). His design and role fit within the series' surreal comedic approach to anthropomorphizing everyday elements.

Within the original "Pururun! Shizuku-chan" anime, Hanatare-kun emerges in early episodes, specifically Season 1, Episode 3 ("Hanaji-kun to Hanatare-kun"). This appearance pairs him with Hanaji-kun, reinforcing his thematic link to nasal themes and establishing him as a minor supporting character among the inhabitants of Shizuku Forest. His characterization remains consistent as a nasal-mucus sprite across official media.
