Star Hana

The Star Hana (スター花, Sutā Hana, Star Flower) is a rare flower with a Super Star replacing the petals. It is the MacGuffin Mario and Yoshi are after in the last chapter of Super Mario-kun volume 7.

After discovering that the Mura Mura citizens are affected by the influenza tontonbū-gata and are turning into pigs, Mario learns from the village chief that only the Star Hana could bring back to normal and cure them. Mario and Yoshi head to find the flower and they find it on the head of a Chō Dossun which they defeat, claiming the flower and curing the Yoshis and Luigi from the pig flu.
