Mona no Hana Kotoba is a segment of the official Japanese website for WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! In the segment, Mona teaches the user a different word each week. The segment was updated for three weeks, with three different words being featured.

Words[edit]

  • Dango-bana, also known as Dangoppana, is named for its rounded tip that resembles a dumpling. It’s said to have earned its name because of that shape. In Diamond City, it’s mostly found in the eastern region.
Its hana kotoba (flower language) is “Unity and Group Action.” At schools in Diamond City, wearing a Dango-bana is mandatory during sports festivals and field trips, as a charm to ensure the success of group events. You’ll even see it often during company strikes.
Dr. Crygor belongs to this flower type. But it seems the flower language doesn’t quite suit him…
  • Aobana, also known as Aoppana, refers mainly to the bluish nasal mucus that children tend to drip.
Its flower language is “Innocence / Childlikeness.” In Diamond City, there’s an annual event called the “Child Contest,” where the child who drips the bluest snivel is crowned that year’s “Diamond Child.” Actually, I once made it to the finals myself!
You’ll sometimes see Kat-chan, Ana-chan, and Dr. Crygor dripping it too.
  • Savanna, also known as “Sabanna,” refers to the type of grassland found in tropical regions, characterized by alternating rainy and dry seasons.
Its flower language is “Wildness / Strength.” At my school, it’s trendy to say “That’s so Savanna!” when describing someone with a wild, untamed vibe.
Wario-san is definitely “That’s so Savanna!”
