Sunekichi Honekawa is the older cousin of Suneo. The character makes his debut in The Hypnotizing Megaphone (which would later become Going for a Vacuum Cleaner Drive) in the 1979 anime. He is an expert in radio controlled toys and other technologies. He often takes Suneo and his friends (usually excluding Nobita) on trips. Sunekichi treats Suneo like his own brother.
Appearance[]
Sunekichi looks like his cousin, Suneo, but is slightly different, being taller than Suneo and having the same height as Suneo's Parents.
In his 1979 design, Sunekichi had smooth, dark brown hair on his head.
Sunekichi's 2005 design portrays him with a mop of brown curly hair atop his head, the hue being a similar hue to what Shizuka Minamoto used for her own hair in the 1979 anime.
