;((nihongo|Shinnosuke Nohara|野原 しんのすけ|Nohara Shinnosuke)) (野原新之助)
:Age: 5

:((voiced by|[[Akiko Yajima]] (1992-2018), [[Yumiko Kobayashi]] (2018-present), [[Kath Soucie]] (English, Vitello dub), [[Laura Bailey (voice actress)|Laura Bailey]] (English, [[Funimation]] dub))), Gil Jopling (English; Amazon Spin-off)
:He is the main character, son of Hiroshi and Misae. His nickname is "Shin-chan" Nohara and he is Himawari's brother, a kindergarten-aged boy whose antics are the basis for the series. He is often involved in a [[running gag]] of pulling down his pants to [[mooning|reveal his buttocks]] and dance in the process with an accompanying original song (known as "Ass dance" in the Funimation English dub). His affectionate name by relatives is Shin-chan. He is five years old and loves "Chocobi" chocolate biscuits and 2 TV characters named "Action Kamen" & "Quantum robot" to such an extent that he [[Impulse-control disorder|can't resist the urge]] to buy merchandise related to these 2 characters. Shin-chan is often shown [[blackmail|blackmailing]] his parents in order to obtain chocolate & toys. He always takes care of his sister, Himawari. He inherited more genes from his mother than his father. He is lethargic, is a [[gluttony|glutton]] and lazy, stingy, stubborn, [[fantasy-prone personality|given to imagining things]], opinionated and brazen, which is just like his mother, while the only thing he shares with his father is watching and flirting with pretty young ladies. Both Shin-chan and his sister's appearance look more like their mother (though Shin-chan's trademark thick eyebrows do seem to a pattern from his father's side). He is a very enthusiastic singer and pretty good baseball and football player. He learned photography from his aunt Musae. Like all other children in Japan, he also dislikes green bellpeppers. His frequent bouts of forgetfulness & inability to remain still indicates towards [[Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder|ADHD]]. Since he is unable to read, write & speak properly due to his age, he misreads & mispronounces actual words, making it very funny. He is also shown to be unable to count properly. He often exhibits deep affection for his best friend, Kazama much to the latter's chagrin. Some of his strange activities include dressing up (often as an animal) & doing the "Elephant Dance" (in which he [[indecent exposure|exposes his genitalia]] & shakes it as if it were an elephant's trunk). At times he is also shown to indulge in [[off-color humour|inappropriate jokes]], mostly [[toilet humour|scatological jokes]]. He also causes trouble for others and then criticizes their efforts in covering for him. In general, he is outspoken and very curious. He has little to no shame. In several occasions, both in the manga and anime, he is either seen in [[drag (entertainment)|drag]] or animal costumes. There have been several instances in which his antics actually solved the problems of those around him. He also displays a surprising amount of talent at changing the wordings of songs that he sings. Although he is mostly portrayed to be selfish but on rare occasions, he displays bouts of selfless kindness; for example, in one anime episode, he saved a frog from a truck on a rainy day, becoming wet and dirty in the process and risking Misae's ire since it was his last set of clean clothes. In another episode, he gives Masao the change he had, even though he knows that his mother will scold him later. A running gag in the series involves Shin-chan being late for the bus to his school, usually due to taking a long time in the bathroom, leading Misae to begrudgingly having to take him to school on her bike. Another running gag involves that if Shinchan is told to conceal a certain fact from a certain person, he would approach that very person & state 'I have been instructed not to tell you this fact' & then proceeds to reveal the fact that was meant to be concealed. Although he always teases his mother, he is very close to her. There are also times when Shin-chan displays a level of maturity beyond his usual self in his concern for others, and in a few rare instances, he shows that deep down he really does care for his family, regardless of how much distress he may sometimes cause them. He is also a member of the Kasukabe Defence Force.
:He is known as Shin-chan Nohara in the Vitello, Phuuz and Funimation dubs, and the jokes he makes in the Funimation dub are more adult.

:She is Shin-chan's mother from [[Aso, Kumamoto]] in  [[Kyushu]]. She is 29 and a typical housewife of [[Postwar Japan|post-war Japan]]: She cleans, launders, cooks, sews, mothers Shin-chan and his sister, and lazes. She is a tough and strong woman. While at heart a caring and nurturing individual, her positive aspects are often offset by her many shortcomings. A paragon of hypocrisy, after handing out irrevocable edicts to her husband and children, she will not hesitate to immediately break them once they are out of sight. Her famous and symbolic moves includes "drilling" others' head with her fists (known as "guri-guri") and a series of punches on the head, creating comically large lumps (the punches are mainly thrown by Misae, but other characters have been known to use it as well, such as Hiroshi and even Nene). Her son often makes fun of her habitual constipation, as well as her fluctuating weight and small breasts. While she spends as little as possible on the less essential needs of her husband and son, she loves to splurge on Himawari and herself, especially on jewellery & cosmetics though she is noted to have instances of great generosity. She always changes her hairstyles as seen it is sometimes curly and sometimes long and shattered hair. Most of her luxury purchases, however, often end up broken, misused or otherwise ruined by her children, sometimes even before she had a chance to try them. She is the source of boundless diet and savings plans, all of which fail within the first week or even first day. She is [[impulse-control disorder|prone to immediately partake]] in bargain sales when she sees them, thinking she is saving the family money but then [[compulsive buying disorder|buys in extreme quantities, regardless of the practicality]], which defeats the purpose,. Like Shin-chan, she is also shown to be forgetful sometimes. Additionally, she secretly hoards money for her own personal use, which often ends up being spent on running the households in times of financial strain when exposed by Shin-chan. She is also known to be a terrible driver. Misae also constantly checks Shin-chan's and Hiroshi's behavior around young women and punishes them accordingly (and always seems to be in the right place at the right time when it comes to the latter). Since Misae has [[body dysmorphic disorder|issues with maintaining her appearance]], she is intensely jealous of Hiroshi interacting with other women & had once even secretly followed him on his business trip to [[Osaka]] for spying on him. However she also secretly [[fantasy-prone personality|fantasizes]] about dating rich blonde young men (with a special preference for Europeans) & had even attempted to forge an extra-marital affair with a young vegetable-seller in Hiroshi's absence after quarreling with him over her spending spree. Because of her inability to operate computers, Misae is unable to seek employment in the office sector, so she occasionally works as part-time in the local shopping mall to arrange for money, but is unable to retain her job for a long time due to her [[intermittent explosive disorder|inability to control her temper]]. While living at 'Falling Apartments', Misae is shown to have worked part-time from home to arrange for money. 
:She is known as Mitsy Nohara in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:She is known as Mitzi Nohara in the Funimation dub. A recurring joke in the dub revolves around her stashing away money into her "[[Breast augmentation|boob job]] jar" to save up for breast implants.

:He is Shin-chan's father from [[Akita Prefecture|Akita]] in Northern Japan, and is the sole source of income. Also known as Harry, he is a loving father to his two children, and ultimately a devoted husband to Misae, to whom he has been married for the last 6 years. He works as a low-level manager in a marketing firm called "Futaba Corporation" in [[Kasumigaseki]] in [[Tokyo]]. While he is the family bread-winner, he hands the reins of finance over to his wife, who maintains a totalitarian level of control on family spending. At age 35, he is a stereotypical Japanese [[salaryman]], working eight-hour days, enduring overstuffed trains, enjoying the occasional nightlife, and giving every bit of his take home pay to his wife every month. While his relationship with his family is positive on the whole, there is an abundance of recurring conflict. He and his wife bicker on many things (like Misae's spendthriftness & the amount of money she allots to Hiroshi for spending on his personal needs) especially on Sundays when Misae insists that Hiroshi lend her a hand in domestic chores at the cost of denying him rest even after [[Japanese work environment|working overtime throughout the week]]. She also hates Hiroshi's passion for golf (which she considers as wasteful expenditure) & whenever Hiroshi has to go out on Sundays to play golf with his boss (who often tries to butter up potential clients by playing golf with them). Misae is also notorious for [[Domestic violence against men|inflicting violence]] on Hiroshi whenever she gets very angry (usually when his gaze wanders to younger women), by which she often coerces Hiroshi to obey her. He often [[fantasy-prone personality|fantasizes]] about being a [[playboy (lifestyle)|playboy]] & having an affair with a younger female colleague named Yumi Kusaka while asleep as an escape, though this is usually interrupted by some external stimulation. He enjoys a playful relationship with his children, but sometimes they're the source of his problems. He loves a cold beer after work and shares Shin-chan's appreciation of TV shows with young women in skimpy clothing, often becoming too excited about it for Misae's liking. He will not hesitate to save his allowance for things he wants, but a running gag is that Misae often finds out the stashed money & in the name of running the household, proceeds to spend it in one of her own spending sprees. A running joke is made of the pungent odor of his feet,<ref name="tv-asahi.co.jp">((Cite web|url=http://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/buyers/contents/programguide/0001/data/7.pdf#toolbar=0&navpanes=0|title = Tv asahi｜テレビ朝日))</ref> and his socks are often used as weapons by other members of the family. The bad smell of his feet is also used sometimes during an emergency to help them escape. Other running jokes are of his non-existent athleticism (which he tries to hide without success) & that he has to repay the loan incurred on buying the current house at Kasukabe they live 3 years ago for the next 32 years. He was born in Omagari, a village in [[Akita Prefecture|Akita]] and graduated from [[Waseda University]].

:She is Shin-chan's sister and the youngest child of the Nohara family, born in 1996. She is an energetic, precocious and vibrant infant. While technically newborn, her character has matured and grown more intelligent during her stay in the series, being able to discern a real jewel from a simple piece of imitation (and throwing away the latter). Like Misae, she also possesses a palpable lust for shiny objects (jewels and precious metals)<ref name="tv-asahi.co.jp" /> and brand-name goods. She emulates her mother in her utterly stubborn pursuit of handsome young men who catch her eye, not unlike her brother, who soon discovered that a way to pacify her was to put on a cutout mask of a known handsome actor. In her family, she is an icon of adoration and annoyance, causing trouble she cannot be blamed for given her infantile innocence. She is an extremely fast crawler, tiring out even Shin-chan, and often uses Shiro as a toy. She looks up to her brother a lot and is very close to him, although they occasionally fight. Her name, which is Japanese for "sunflower", was chosen by the show's viewership and not the creator. It is also hinted that she might marry Kazama Toru in the future.
:She is known as Daisy Nohara in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs. 
:She is known as Hima Nohara in the Funimation dub.

:((nihongo|Shiro|シロ|Shiro)) is a white, fluffy pup Shin-chan found in a cardboard box early in the series. While a beloved member of the family, he is the subject of neglect thanks to his owner's [[Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder|mental condition]]. He is a very intelligent dog, often presenting logic and intellect that surpasses his human owners. As his meals from the Nohara's are at best inconsistent, he has developed a talent for foraging, though other times he has to eat Misae's failed culinary experiments. An oddly human-like dog, he is very responsible and painstakingly careful. He takes care of his owners diligently, though often they do not realize his help or understand what he is trying to show them. His doghouse also often ends up becoming a place for Shin-chan to hide himself or something he doesn't want his family to find. He often plays protector to Himawari, more often than not sacrificing his well being in the process.
:He is known as Lucky in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:He is known as Whitey in the Funimation dub, and he has an added [[British English|British]] voice over. It is mentioned that he had a brother named "Blackey" that was also owned by Shin's family who was hit by a car.

:Tōru Kazama is Shin-chan's  immaculately groomed and perfectly mannered friend, who usually loses his mind when Shin-chan teases him, among other things. He also bickers and fights with Shin-chan sometimes. Despite that, they are actually closer than any of the other friends they have. A strong evidence of this was when Kazama was extremely frustrated and lonely in several episodes, Shin-chan was the only one who stayed with him. Even though Kazama always denies it when Shin-chan says that he is his best friend, his best friend is Shin-chan, too. Of all of Shin-chan's friends, he's the only one referred to by his family name (Kazama-kun). Only his mother uses his given name (Tōru-chan). He participates in extracurricular activities like English Conversation and seems knowledgeable in any subject (even if he is not), which makes him appear as snobbish, but he is actually a good person. He plays association football and baseball very well. He likes female animation and comic book characters, though he tries to hide that fact from his friends. Since his father remains abroad for most of the year, he has a strong attachment to his mother, for which he is often ridiculed as a [[mother's boy|mama's boy]]. A recurring theme in the show is that he tries to hang out with upper class girls his age from his tuition classes to be a part of the "elite", but runs into Shin-chan being weird, which ultimately causes the girl to lose interest in hanging out with him. Another running gag is that whenever he tries to be serious while doing anything, Shinchan blows air into his ears (a thing which he occasionally does with others) much to his irritation, causing him to lose focus & end up ruining the activity. Although Kazama is sometimes suggested to look down upon Shin-chan due to the economic status of his family & his weird mannerisms, he is secretly envious of Shin-chan for having a younger sister & a pet dog. It is hinted that Kazama might marry Himawari in the future.
:He is known as Cosmo in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:He is known as Georgie Herbert Walker Prescott III in the Funimation dub and is changed into an ultra-conservative [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] American. In the third season, it is stated that his family lost most of their money due to the economic recession, though he attempts to hide this from his peers & is shown to have [[Oedipus complex]].

:Age: 5
:Nene Sakurada (Nene-chan) is Shin-chan's female classmate and the only female best friend. She has a crush on Shin-chan (usually not obvious). Her nickname is Nene-chan. She loves to play 'real omamagoto', or 'real house', which is basically a re-enactment of [[Japanese television drama|Japanese soap-operas]] in which divorces and arguments are very common and she typically forces her four male best friends to play with her this game exclusively over other games. This is always a nuisance to Shin-chan, Bo-chan, and Kazama-kun, and a nightmare to Masao as he often needs to be Nene's husband (unsuccessful salaryman) in the plot. However, she loves her friends very much and stands up for them without any hesitation. She occasionally sees her mother go crazy or do something out of character (usually it's because Shin-chan drives her crazy) and shrieks something which is literally translated to be "You're not my usual mom!" Nene styles herself as a sweet girl, but in fact she has inherited her mother's [[intermittent explosive disorder|temper issues]] and is quite bossy. Like her mother, she hits a stuffed bunny to relieve her anger. She considers Ai her rival. She is the only female member of the Kasukabe Defence Force, and takes it very seriously. Despite her many flaws, she is a tough, headstrong and kind hearted little girl.  
:She is known as Nini in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs, but as Penny in the Funimation dub.
:In the LUK Internacional dub she has a British accent.

:Age: 5
:Masao Sato is a well-behaved but timid boy, often crying out of fright. Shin-chan and Nene sometimes tease him, but not in a bad way. Nene is often annoyed by his cowardice and encourages him to stand up for himself. Shin-chan and Nene often scold him (the former usually as a display of humor and the latter usually as a display of annoyance) and make him cry while Kazama and Bo calm him down and comfort him. Even so, he is often shown to have a rebellious side when he gets driven. His nickname is "[[Onigiri]]" due to his shaven head's resemblance to a rice ball, and there are several moments where Shin-chan accidentally mistook Masao's head for a rice ball and even tried to eat it. Shin-chan often seeks out Masao in times of need. A running gag in the series is that Shin-chan often mistakes the house opposite to Masao's house as that of Masao. The people that bully him use it as a put-down. He seems to have a very low self esteem & is shown to break down into tears very often. He is a gifted artist whose hobby is to write and illustrate [[manga|comics]]. He also likes to collect objects & maintains cleanliness (a trait absent in Shin-chan). He is also quite knowledgable and creative. Masao is in love with Ai and jealous of Shin-chan because Ai loves Shin-chan, but they are still best friends.
:He is known as Max in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:He is known as Maso Sato in the Funimation dub. The Funimation website says that Maso is like "[[Linus van Pelt|Linus]] without his blanket."<ref name="Funi">"[http://www.shinchanshow.com/ Official Shin-chan website]." Funimation.

:Another of Shin-chan's best friends, he seems slow and expressionless, but is actually quite smart and has an interest in artistic, adult-oriented things. He loves to collect various kinds of stone and investigating [[urban legends]] and various mysterious objects such as [[UFO]]s. He often surprises his best friends with his insight, though he speaks quite slowly. He has a sister named Nisu-chan. He always has a trail of [[mucus]] running down his nose and can perform various tricks with it.
:He is known as Boo in the Funimation dub, and he says he never wipes it away because he thinks that his snot is the source of his "power". He is portrayed as a stupid kid who often says nonsensical things like a sufferer from [[Tourette syndrome]]. For example, when Penny asked why someone would call Shin's ramshackle apartment "Falling Apartments", Boo responded by saying "I'd call it Boo eats soda and likes lamps." He likes to collect pet rocks, his favorite one is named "Phillip."

Likes to live stylishly in public but she actually struggles to save her money for luxuries and lives in a very cheap, dusty apartment. She dislikes her given name as she always says to Yoshinaga and others, "Don't call me Ume!". This is due to one of the meanings of "Ume", which means "plum" in Japanese,  can also mean "3rd class" or "low class". She claims that she was born & brought up in the [[Greater Tokyo area|city]] but actually comes from a peasant family in rural Japan. Although she said before she is "tired of Futaba Kindergarten (especially Shin-chan and his friends plus the low salary despite all the hard work)" and plans to move out to a better school, she never seriously intends to do it. She supports and loves the kindergarten, too. Despite her rivalry and bickering with Midori, she cares for her and once helped her reconcile with her future husband. She is also a very strong figure.  When she ran into Roberto, afraid that the dress would be torn when he saw it, she performed a backflip. She can also land on a steel pipe with high heels.  This is very rare for a character because not all teachers in the Kindergarten can do a flip with a dress. This shows that Matsuzaka is not just a sassy/stylish kind of person, but an agile, strong woman because of her attending dance classes. Due to her apparent [[spinsterhood]], she is extremely desperate to engage in dating (for which she always wears revealing clothes when not in school) & takes every opportunity to familiarize with young men. A running gag about her is that her dates are often screwed up by Shin-chan and friends in various ways, until she meets Tokurou. Another running gag is that the men in whom she gets interested in dating is revealed to be already married. 
:She is known as Miss Uma in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:She is known as Rachel Katz in the Funimation dub. She is portrayed as having not dated anyone for a long time, and is shown to be rather bitter towards Miss Anderson's relationship with Doyle due to this. In the third season her first name is mentioned as being "Rebecca" instead of "Rachel". 
;((nihongo|Masumi Ageo|上尾 ますみ|Ageo Masumi))
:((Voiced by|[[Kotono Mitsuishi]]|[[Jamie Marchi]] (Funimation)))
:Teacher who handles the Cherry Blossom (Sakura) class. Age 22. She first appeared on July 10, 1998 as a substitute teacher for Miss Matsuzaka (who had been hospitalized with a fractured leg). She seems to be nervous of everything and experiences [[panic attacks]] when facing a large group of kids (which is an everyday scenario of her). However, when Shin-chan takes off her glasses, her vision becomes blurred and a personality change takes place; she becomes very aggressive and fearless as shown in her first appearance in episode 281-2 ((nihongo|"The New Teacher Acts Weird"|新しい先生は変わってるゾ|Atarashii Sensei wa Kawatteru zo)). Her condition is somewhat similar to [[Lunch (Dragon Ball)|Lunch]] from the ''[[Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' series. She has a fixation with Kuroiso, who is Ai-chan's personal bodyguard, but the motivation behind it changes between the manga and the anime from one of admiration to one of romance. She currently dates him. She is also very fond of [[donuts]] & has a [[acrophobia|fear of heights]].
:She is known as Miss Agnes in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:She is known as Miss Polly in the Funimation dub, and is portrayed as a [[nymphomaniac]].

;((nihongo|Bunta Takakura|高倉 文太|Takakura Bunta))
:((Voiced by|[[Rokurō Naya]] (1992–2014), [[Junpei Morita]] (2015–)|[[Pat Fraley]] (Vitello), [[Jason Liebrecht]] (Funimation)))
:The principal of Futaba Kindergarten, he's often referred to as ((nihongo|"Enchō"|園長)), which means "Kindergarten/Nursery School Principal." His [[Yakuza]]-like appearance is often misunderstood by the people in the neighborhood and even among the students and teachers of the kindergarten on some occasions, which often acts as a recurring joke in the series (often worsened by Shin-chan by calling him ((nihongo|"Kumichō"|組長|Godfather))). Actually, he has a tender heart and a good attitude. He is shown to like [[Puroresu#Joshi puroresu|women's wrestling]] in one episode. In an episode where the teachers are getting their medical checkup at kindergarten, it is shown that he has high blood pressure and it's because of stress. He said his stress is mainly due to the three teachers, as well as Shin-chan and his friends.
:His name is based on actors [[Bunta Sugawara]] and [[Ken Takakura]], both famous for their Yakuza roles in movies. Sugawara, Takakura, and Rokuro Naya (Encho's voice actor) all died within the same month in November 2014.
:He is known as Principal Enzo in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:He is known as Principal Bernoulli Ench in the Funimation dub, and is portrayed as a half-[[Peruvians|Peruvian]], half-[[Romani people|gypsy]] man with a complicated past.  For example, he used to be a magician, but after killing multiple audience members during one of his magic acts, he was exiled from his home country.

==Recurring characters==
;((nihongo|Ginnosuke Nohara|野原 銀の介|Nohara Ginnosuke))
:((Voiced by|[[Ginzō Matsuo]], [[Chō]] (Ep. 429 and on)|[[Pat Fraley]] (Vitello), [[Sonny Strait]] (Funimation)))
:Hiroshi's 65-year-old father, Shin-chan and Himawari's paternal grandfather. Like his son and grandson, he too enjoys looking at and flirting with pretty young women in skimpy clothing. He also likes to do weird things with his grandson and taught him many of his habits. He is affectionately called Gin-chan. When he visits the Nohara's, he always stays for much longer than Misae would like, leading to friction between the two. He greets the family in various strange (and often embarrassing) ways whenever they visit [[Akita, Akita|Akita]], such as dressing as various movie characters. Another running gag in the series is that he suddenly appears in Kasukabe out of nowhere. Ginnosuke is also portrayed to be more technologically advanced than he is expected to be (as he is shown using mobile-phones long before Hiroshi & Misae bought one for their own use).
:In the Funimation dub, he is affectionately called "Gin" and is said to have "roamed" throughout the countryside on a motorcycle when he was younger.
:He is known as Gary in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
;((nihongo|Tsuru Nohara|野原 つる|Nohara Tsuru))
:((Voiced by|Chie Kitagawa|[[Russi Taylor]] (Vitello)))
:Hiroshi's 62-year-old mother, Shin-chan and Himawari's paternal grandmother. Although she seems to be more mature than her husband, she also sometimes assists her husband's weird antics. Her response to Ginnosuke' appreciation for women in skimpy clothing is almost similar to that of Misae's towards Hiroshi's similar antics, albeit without any violence.
;((nihongo|Yoshiji Koyama|小山 よし治|Koyama Yoshiji))
:((Voiced by|Kenichi Sakaguchi, Tomoaki Ikeda|[[John Swasey]] (Funimation)))
:Misae's 63-year-old father and Shin-chan and Himawari's maternal grandfather. As a retired teacher, he has much higher standards of public decorum than Hiroshi's father Ginnosuke. This results in him constantly arguing with Ginnosuke. Although he is stubborn (a trait that was passed down to his daughters and grandson) and conservative, he is actually a caring person. He likes to dote on his grandchildren. Hiroshi is afraid of Yoshiji due to the latter's strict demeanor. Yoshiji was initially disapproving of Hiroshi marrying Misae but later accepted him as his son-in-law after hearing his vision of raising children.
:He is known as Waldo in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:He is known as Yoshi Koyama in the Funimation dub.
:He is known as Yoshio Koyama in the Indian Dub.
;((nihongo|Hisae Koyama|小山 ひさえ|Koyama Hisae))
:((Voiced by|[[Noriko Uemura]]|[[Wendy Powell]] (Funimation)))
:Misae's 58-year-old mother and Shin-chan and Himawari's maternal grandmother. Her appearances in Shin-chan episodes are usually with her husband. Like her husband, she looks down on the way Hiroshi's father behaves, but she gets along well with Ginnosuke's wife Tsuru. She always fights over little things with her husband Yoshiji.
:In the Funimation dub, she is referenced as repeatedly having [[suicidal ideation|threatened to kill herself]] in the past, frequently stating "this makes me think twice about suicide" as a reaction to various things.
;((nihongo|Musae Koyama|小山 むさえ|Koyama Musae))
:((Voiced by|[[Michiko Neya]]|[[Carli Mosier]] (Funimation)))
:Misae's 26-year-old younger sister and Shin-chan and Himawari's aunt. She is also a spinster and is very lazy and likes to eat snacks and sleep all the time. She is an amateur photographer & dreams of becoming an established one. She often makes a mess in the room she lives in. Compared to her sisters, she is more childlike; hence, she connects well with local kids. After arguing with her father (who disapproved of her career in photography because he didn't believe that she could achieve anything due to her lazy nature), Musae secretly came to Kasukabe & started living with Misae. After Yoshiji discovers Musae is living with Misae while visiting Kasukabe on a surprise visit, he states that unless Musae is able to achieve something within the next 3 months, he will make other arrangements for her. So Musae, with the help of Shin-chan, is able to obtain the job of an assistant to a well-established photographer. During this time, she moves out of Noharas' house & starts to live in a rented room in the 'Falling Apartments'. However, after working for a few months, she had a fallout with her employer & returned back to living with Misae. Attempts to get her married off by her sisters & parents also fail due to Musae's refusal to become a plain housewife. Later she finds employment at the Kasukabe book store. 
:She is known as "Masi" (maternal aunt in Hindi) in the Indian dub
:She is known as "Bitzi Koyama" in the Funimation dub, and is stated to be a "[[Brown-brown]]" addict.
;((nihongo|Ai Suotome|酢乙女 あい|Suotome Ai)) " Ai- Chan"
:Age: 5
:((voiced by|[[Ayako Kawasumi]]|[[Monica Rial]] (Funimation)))
:Ai-chan is one of the show's newer characters. She appeared for the first time in episode 339-1. She is from a [[List of Japanese by net worth|millionare]] family and happened to be enrolled into the Futaba Kindergarten after she threw a dart at a map of Japan while living in [[New York City|New York]] and hit Kasukabe to determine where she would go next. She is always seen riding in a black limousine and with a bodyguard. She is very manipulative and purposely bends people to her will just because she can. However, when she tried to do the same to Shin-chan, she failed. Because of that, she fell in love with Shin-chan and, being the manipulator she is, uses his weaknesses (Action Mask, Chocobi, etc.) to get him to notice her. However, when Shin-chan finds her annoying, Ai moves to win the attention of Shin-chan's parents, much to their chagrin. Masao likes her very much, but Ai almost never pays attention to him. When she does pay attention to him, she makes him act as her pet. She is also a fierce rival of Nene, and they are always seen fighting over petty things.  She is not a part of the Kasukabe Defence Force. Some time later, she permanently moves to [[Hokkaido]] and is hence not shown in further episodes. She comes sometimes to meet them. In later episodes, it is shown that she has a younger brother called Kawaguchi Suotome.
:She is known as Sally in the Phuuz dub.
;((nihongo|Yasuo Kawamura|河村 やすお|Kawamura Yasuo|Cheetah Kawamura))
:((Voiced by|Tomoko Ōtsuka|[[Russi Taylor]] (Vitello), [[Trina Nishimura]] (Funimation)))
:Yasuo is always wearing a leopard shirt and playing with his soccer ball, hence his nickname "Cheetah",  but Shinnosuke kept referring to him wrongly by random words that sound partially similar, much to his dismay, and thus constitute a running gag. He has a fierce dislike of Shinnosuke and Kazama and usually gets into shouting matches, fights and bickerings with the both of them.  He also loves to bully Masao. Even though he is confident in his athletic ability and acts as the Rose Class' leader, he almost always loses to the Sunflower Class because of Shin Chan and his friends. He has formed a [[clique]] with classmates Hitoshi and Terunobu. Even though sometimes he seems bad and snobbish, he also has a good heart on occasion. For example, when Shin-chan asked him to join the group and make something for Masao who is at the hospital, he agrees to do so because he is touched by their friendship. Furthermore, when the Kasukabe Defence Force announced that they are going to 'disband', he is the first to cry and cheers for them, although the ending of the episode is unexpected.
;((nihongo|Hitoshi|ひとし|Hitoshi))
:((Voiced by|Fūko Shinomiya, [[Chisa Yokoyama]], [[Naomi Nagasawa|Nao Nagasawa]]))
:This child is a kindergarten bully and always likes to bully Masao with Terunobu.

;((nihongo|Terunobu|てるのぶ|Terunobu))
:((Voiced by|[[Ayako Shiraishi]], [[Yuri Shiratori]], [[Fujiko Takimoto]]))
:This child is a kindergarten bully and always likes to bully Masao with Hitoshi. His dialogue usually consists of him just repeating the last thing Hitoshi says when they are bullying someone.
:Like Hitoshi, the Funimation dub does not give him a name, and he is portrayed as a second-grader.
;((nihongo|Moeko Sakurada|桜田 もえ子|Sakurada Moeko))
:((voiced by|Shōko Saitō→Junko Hagimori (Ep. 98 and on)|[[Lydia Mackay]] (Funimation)))
:Nene-chan's mother. She gets easily angry by both Shin-chan, who always seems to rub her the wrong way whenever they meet. Nevertheless, she keeps a friendly relationship with Misae & had even visited her in the local hospital with others when Misae was admitted there for fracturing her hip-bone. Moeko expresses her anger by beating up a very large stuffed toy rabbit in a private place or destroying stuffed rabbits. Her [[intermittent explosive  disorder|psychologically-questionable behavior]] is sometimes noticed by others, and those who see her beating up a stuffed toy feel very intimidated. Her way of expressing anger has been passed down to her daughter, Nene-chan. She has constipation problems & likes to splurge on cosmetics too, just like Misae.
:She is known as Ruby in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:She is known as Patty Milfer in the Funimation dub. A recurring joke revolves around her repeatedly trying to run away and leave her abusive husband, and planning to work in a brothel to support herself afterwards. One episode of the dub revolved around her attempt to do this, but her plans were ruined by Shin. It is also stated that she had another child after Penny named Caitlin who she ended up drowning in a lake, which is also played as [[black comedy]].
:In the LUK Internacional dub she has a British accent.
;((nihongo|Mineko Kazama|風間 みね子|Kazama Mineko))
:((voiced by|[[Sakiko Tamagawa]]|[[Melinda Wood Allen]] (Funimation)))
:Kazama-kun's mother. She has the appearance of a rich man's wife. She has her son Kazama-kun do many extracurricular activities such as football, cricket, English tuitions etc. She also likes to try to make younger men swoon by her looks and fashion. Unlike Nene's mother, Kazama-kun's mother is not ruffled by Shin-chan easily. She is friends with Misae, who is secretly jealous of her wealth & having a good-mannered son like Kazama. It is also implied that she suffers from [[premature greying of hair]].
:She is named Barbara Prescott in the Funimation dub. She is just as much of a big Republican as her son, and is sometimes implied to be racist.
;((nihongo|Masao-kun's mother (Ekasuky Sato)|マサオくんのママ|Masao-kun no Mama))

;((nihongo|Kuroiso|黒磯|Kuroiso))
:((voiced by|[[Fumihiko Tachiki]]|[[Christopher Sabat]] (Funimation)))
:Ai-chan's bodyguard and driver. He always wears a black business suit and sunglasses, akin to [[Secret service]] agents. He is very obedient to Ai-chan's orders, who occasionally blackmails him with disclosing the misdeeds he has done when he thought no one was watching (such as accidentally breaking one of her parents' priceless pieces of art and using super-glue to repair it) such as one time when Ai-chan ordered him to find leaves that have fallen during autumn (which result in him being hospitalized when he slipped while catching a beautiful leaf hanging on top of a tree branch). He has dated Miss Ageo. He hides while Ai-chan is in class (for example, in the top of the playfield's trees), but Shin-chan always finds his hiding place.
:He is known as Mr. K in the Funimation dub.
;((nihongo|Nanako Oohara|大原 ななこ|Ōhara Nanako))
:((voiced by|[[Sayuri Yamauchi|Sayuri]], [[Shizuka Itō]]|[[Stephanie Young]] (Funimation)))
:The college girl with whom Shin-chan has a deep crush. She is 20 years old. The first time they met was when Shin-chan was strolling in the neighborhood and got something in his eye. Nanako took it out for him. Since then, they have kept in contact. Nanako is the only girl that is unruffled by Shin-chan's behavior, and the only one Shin-chan tries to behave for, even being shy and blushing around her. She dreams of being a [[kindergarten]] teacher. She first appeared on January 29, 1996. However, she just sees Shin-chan as a little brother. It is implied that Shin-chan secretly desires to fondle with her breasts. A notable running gag is that, whenever Nanako offers to visit Shin-chan or spend time with him, he always misses spending time with her either due to Nanako's father, Nanako's college friend, Shin Chan's family members (most notably Himawari) or friends and many times due to excessive sleep because of tiredness caused by waking up too early to meet her. 
:She is known as Miss Bono in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:In the Funimation dub, Shin refers to her as "Hottie Nanako".
;((nihongo|Shijuurou Oohara|大原 四十郎|Ōhara Shijūrō))
:((voiced by|[[Mugihito]]))
:Nanako's father. He is a famous author of many popular books. He is overprotective of his daughter and worries too much about her. He is often seen disrupting any important matter at hand whenever he has the most extremely subtle (false) hint that Nanako may be in trouble. He disapproves of Shin-chan's affections for his daughter, though they both band together in keeping an eye on her.
:In the Funimation dub, he is known as Will Cumton, and is re-imagined as a vampire who exclusively appears in the episode "True [[The Twilight Saga (film series)|Twillight]] Diaries". Similar to most stereotypical vampires, he is afraid of garlic, silver, and sunlight. He is also said to be able to transform into a half-bat half-human form, which he can use to fly away. He went on a snowboarding trip with Nanako (who wasn't aware of his real identity) and intended to use her body to replace her soul with that of his deceased lover, Cookie. He was also responsible for Rex's "mysterious" death, who used to be Nanako's ex-boyfriend and a famous snow-boarder. His attempts to seduce Nanako were all foiled by Shin. He is voiced with a [[Cajun English|Cajun]] accent, and is stated to be from [[Louisiana]], as well as being rather wealthy.
;((nihongo|Shinobu Kandadori|神田鳥 忍|Kandadori Shinobu))
:((voiced by|Mizuki Ōtsuka))
:Nanako's 20 year old college friend. She hopes to become a [[Professional wrestling in Japan|professional wrestler]]. Her name is based on real-life wrestler [[Shinobu Kandori]]. A running gag is that her presence ruins Shin-chan's chance of spending time alone with Nanako. 
:She is known as Griselda in the Funimation dub, and is stated to be Dutch.
;((nihongo|Kensuke Suzuki|鈴木 けんすけ|Suzuki Kensuke))
:((voiced by|[[Ken Narita]], Ryuichi Higashi))

:Always addressed as 'Fukazume' (ふかづめ), she is the 17-year-old leader of the clique name 'Saitama Red Scorpions'. She is a tough fighter and behaves righteously towards her friends. Her violent and brash behavior undermines her gentle and kind side, and despite being the leader of a female gang, shows a surprising amount of genial traits. She has a secret hobby of dressing up as a [[Sailor Moon]] character and does not want her teammates to know that she does not know how to use a cellphone, and is shown having difficulty sending an SMS through it. 'Fukazume' is actually her nickname of sorts meaning "Rough 'n Ready". She also had a crush on Shinnoshuke's kendo teacher. A running gag in the series is that while she aims to make her clique renowned in the city by accomplishing some missions, Shin-chan always comes there to ruin it. 
;((nihongo|Ogin Uonome|魚の目 お銀|Uonome Ogin))
:((voiced by|Midori Nakazawa→[[Chizuko Hoshino]]|[[Amanda Doksocil]] (Funimation)))
:Member of the clique who always wears a mask with an "X" on it, thus earning her nickname "Fish-eyed Ogin" (the X resembles the eye of a dead fish). She is taciturn.

;((nihongo|Kawaguchi|川口|Kawaguchi))
:((voiced by|[[Daiki Nakamura (actor)|Daiki Nakamura]]))
:Hiroshi is his senior in the office, so Kawaguchi always looks up to him almost to the point of him thinking that Hiroshi can do no wrong. Kawaguchi's  unmarried status is an often repeated point in the show. He was shown to have a crush on his junior colleague Yumi Kusaka. He often go out to lunch with Hiroshi. His surname comes from [[Kawaguchi, Saitama]]. He is only referred to by his last name, and his first name is never given.
:He is known as Morty in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.

:((voiced by|[[Minami Takayama]]))
:She's been Misae's good friend since middle school. Age 29. Her nickname is "Kei", so Shin-chan calls her "Okei-obasan" (Aunt(ie) Kei). She married Satoshi. A running gag is that Shin-chan would make her comment about how she tricked her younger husband into marrying her, making her feel really awkward.
;((nihongo|Satoshi Honda|本田 悟史|Honda Satoshi))

;((nihongo|Reiko Kitamoto|北本れい子|Kitamoto Reiko))
:((voiced by|Reiko Suzuki|Laurie Steele (Funimation)))
:The Nohara family's neighbor. She loves to gossip so she is frequently seen chatting with Misae. A running gag is that once she starts to gossip, it will not end for the next 2-3 hours. The Nohara family temporarily lived in the house of Mrs Kitamoto after their own house was destroyed by an explosion caused by Shin-chan igniting a lighter in midst of a gas-leak. After the Nohara family moved into 'Falling Apartments', Shiro was entrusted to her because the new landlady didn't allow to keep pets. Her surname comes from [[Kitamoto, Saitama]].
:She is known as Goobers in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
:She is known as Yuka in the Funimation dub. She almost constantly mentions she has [[fibromyalgia]], and frequently references her children who never come to visit her.
;((nihongo|Robert McGuire|ロベルト・マクガイヤー|Roberuto Makugaiyā))
:((voiced by|[[Yukitoshi Hori]]|[[Robert McCollum]] (Funimation)))
:Kitamoto's nephew. He lives mainly in the US, but sometimes he stays at her house. Shin-chan calls him "Beruto-kun." At first, he couldn't speak any Japanese at all so he would misunderstand everything and was naive to Japanese culture so he took everything that Shin-chan would tell him about at face value. He once had a crush on Nanako. He teaches English at an [[eikaiwa school]]. Even though he is half-Japanese, he carries the facial features of almost all of the show's foreigners – blonde haired, blue eyed, and a pointy nose.
:In the Funimation dub, he is an albino French man with a sharp French accent sent to Yuka through [[couch surfing]] to keep her company. Kenta believes him to be "the albino titan, Beezledrop", and sent him to Afghanistan to open a portal. In season 3, he has returned to Kasukabe, but was apparently indoctrinated by terrorists during his time in Afghanistan.
:In the LUK Internacional dub he is a Frenchman instead of an American.
;((nihongo|Yoshirin Hatogaya|鳩ヶ谷 ヨシりん|Hatogaya Yoshirin))
:((voiced by|[[Daisuke Sakaguchi]]|[[Eric Vale]] (Funimation)))
:The Nohara family's other neighbor, affectionately known as Yocchi. Yocchi and his wife Micchī meet Shin-chan's family for the first time on a trip to [[Hawaii]]. After the trip, they moved next door to Shin-chan's family. Their surnames are named after [[Hatogaya, Saitama]]. They display their affection towards one another and always have a very effervescent attitude, which contrasts with earlier Japanese generations. He and his wife are always wearing matching clothes and they are easily excited by new things. The pair were originally a one shot appearance with the same name and mannerisms, but with a completely different and mature look. Their re-introduction as semi-regular characters on the show saw a revamp in their appearance. They're mentioned as friendless, mostly coming to Noharas for arguing over silliest things or appearing suddenly and inviting themselves to supper, despite the hatred they often received from the Nohara's as well (mostly from Hiroshi). Yocchi is obsessed with his wife to the extent that he was unable to leave her alone to go to work in his office at one point, which indicates towards [[separation anxiety disorder]]
:In the Funimation dub, he and his wife are in constant debt due to their constant spending and need to have all the new things, and have adopted habits to run out on bills and look for sleazy, cheap buildings to live in. Yoshirin is stated to collect [[hentai]], much to his wife's dismay, though later it is mentioned that he managed to get her interested in it as well.
:He is known as Luis in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
;((nihongo|Micchi Hatogaya|鳩ヶ谷 ミッチー|Hatogaya Micchī))

:Yoshirin's wife. She likes to watch [[horror movies]] (to her husband's chagrin) and collects stuffed [[dinosaur]]s & horror films, much to her husband's dismay. Whenever she and Yocchi have a fight (often over the silliest things), they both end up going to the Nohara's for advice and often reconcile while the Nohara's fight (often due to Yocchi and Micchi's argument) by deciding they don't want to become like Hiroshi and Misae. They're also prone to appear suddenly at the Nohara's and invite themselves to supper. 
:She is known as Gidgy in the Vitello and Phuuz dubs.
;((nihongo|Nushiyo Ooya|大家 主代|Ōya Nushiyo))
:((voiced by|Kōko Kagawa|Julie Mayfield (Funimation)))
:She is the landowner of "Falling Apartments". She has very strict rules such as being very quiet in the corridors and not allowing pets. She spends her free time piling her collection of dentures into a tower. She is extremely possessive about the apartment due to it being the only remnant of her late husband. Her cold attitude toward children can be attributed to the fact that her husband and her three-year-old daughter died in a traffic accident 30 years ago. However, in the manga, she is shown to act as a [[midwife]] to Midori, who went into labour at "Falling Apartments" where she had come to return a book to Misae & aided in the delivery of her daughter. Her name is a play on the Japanese words ''yanushi'' (家主) and ''ōya'' (大家), both of which mean "landlord".
:In the Funimation dub, she is referred to as the Manlady by Shin, a pun on her homely appearance and position of power as landlady.
;((nihongo|Yonro|四郎|Yonrō))
:((voiced by|[[Toshiharu Sakurai]]|[[Christopher Sabat]] (Funimation)))
:He lives next door from Shin-chan's family at room 201 in "Falling Apartments". He attended Tokyo Kasukabe University, not [[Tokyo University]] as Misae & Hiroshi had mistakenly believed. Due to this mistake, Misae and Hiroshi frequently invited him over to fancy dinners at their house being very supportive of him so that one day when Yonro goes into a successful political career (a reference to the fact that many big Japanese politicians & [[List of prime ministers of Japan|prime ministers]] are Tokyo University alumni), he would thank them with money and gifts. When Misae and Hiroshi found out that he wasn't attending Tokyo University, they practically abandoned him. However, they continued to support Yonro by providing him with food when they learnt that Yonro had already failed in the university entrance exams three times in row before their arrival, for which he suffered from [[Depression (mood)|depression]]. He has visited Shin-chan's family when they moved back into their old house. He works at a supermarket as a part-time job. His wall and the Nohara family's wall in the apartment have a huge big hole, which was created due to Yonro punching into the wall out of frustration, which he & the Noharas had to conceal from the sight of Mrs Ooya.

So Atsukuru himself visits Nene & requests her to come back.

This woman is a door-to-door saleswoman for a company that makes books and audio cassette tapes for young children. Unfortunately for this "woman", her appearance tends to scare the hell out of young children which means that her sales are pitiful. Shin-chan is also firmly convinced that this woman is actually a [[Cross-dressing|crossdressing]] man. A running gag is that whenever Urima is about to finalise the deal, it gets screwed due to Shin-chan's antics or the police (called in by Mrs. Kitamoto, who incorrectly believed that Urima is a terrorist in disguise) barging in at that moment.  Everyone treats her as such after that. However, this hasn't deterred her, and she has gone to the mountains for rigorous training in the secret arts of the travelling saleswoman.

:A stuffed rabbit, owned by Nene and her mother. Nene and her mother started using it as a punching bag to vent out their anger. 
:It is known as Happiness Bunny in the Funimation dub. There are three occurrences in the Funimation dub where it came to life at the light of a lunar eclipse (evidenced by a red moon), and takes revenge on Penny and her mother for all the beatings.
;((nihongo|Shinko-chan|しんこちゃん|Shinko-chan))
:A strange girl from the future with the same facial features as Shin-chan. She has a slightly creepy demeanor, but is the opposite of Shin-chan in many ways as she is tactful, empathetic, and sees the good qualities in the people she meets. Her family is still not revealed but she has a bodyguard. Some fans said she is the future Himawari while some said she is Shinchan and his fiancée Tamiko's daughter
