Banzai Bills first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Unlike the smaller Bullet Bills they are not shot from [[Bill Blaster]]s, and just appear in some places, moving slowly horizontally. In later games, however, they are shot from large cannons. Like their smaller versions, they can be defeated by jumping on them.
Banzai Bills first debuted in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as recurring enemies, and has become recurring enemies in later ''Mario'' games. They are larger versions of [[Bullet Bill]]s with a shark-tooth smile and lack of white arms and hands.
 
In their earlier appearances, Banzai Bills are fired from offscreen and move towards the player in a straight line, unlike how Bullet Bills are shot from [[Bill Blaster]]s. In later games, however, they are shot from large cannons. Similar to the Bullet bills, they can be easily defeated by jumping on them.

Banzai Bills occasionally appear in their original forms as [[background character]]s in the {{SSBM|Yoshi's Island}} stage.
In the stage [[Princess Peach's Castle]], Banzai Bills appear from the sky and will start flying towards the castle. The Banzai Bill will then burrow into a random wall of the castle. It will then start to flash, indicating that it is about to explode. When a Banzai Bill explodes, any character in the blast radius will take heavy damage and extreme [[knockback]]. Banzai Bill's explosion involves numerous small hits before finally resulting in one final blow that causes a [[one-hit KO]], though it is possible to [[DI]] out of the explosion before the final, fatal blow. Any character who makes contact with a Banzai Bill before it explodes will take light damage and knockback.
