| | The '''Fan''' ({{ja|はりせん}}, ''harisen'') has been used throughout the . It has very weak, but very rapid attacks and can be an effective [[KO]]ing projectile when [[throw]]n. |
| The '''Fan''' ({{ja|はりせん|Harisen}}, ''{{iw|wikipedia|Harisen}}'') is an [[item]] that appeared in the first three games in the ''Super Smash Bros'' series. It is characterised as being a very weak weapon with an extremely high attack speed, as well as being surprisingly effective at trapping opponents and ruining shields. | |
|
| |
|
| ==Origin==
| | Its ability to suck in opponents combined with its rapid rate of fire makes it incredibly easy for one character to trap another in a flurry of rapid fan attacks. |
| [[File:RealLifeFan.jpg|thumb|left|''Manzai'' performed in real-life. The ''tsukkomi'' (right) can be immediately recognised by the fan he wields.]]
| |
| As outlined by the [[Fan#Trophies|relevant ''Brawl'' trophy]] of the item, the Fan is a reference to traditional stand-up comedy acts in Japan; originating from the Heian period, the act today is generally associated with {{s|wikipedia|Osaka}}, with the performers often speaking in the highly distinctive {{iw|wikipedia|Kansai dialect}}. These comedy acts, referred to as ''{{s|wikipedia|manzai}}'', feature a "straight man" (the ''tsukkomi'') and "funny man" (the ''boke'') duo, with the duo rapidly exchanging jokes involving misunderstandings, puns, wordplay, and other verbal gags. In its history, ''manzai'' has featured few props, the most notable of them being the fan. Within the various sketches featuring the duo, the ''tsukkomi'' often uses the fan to slap the ''boke'' in response to their jokes or idiocy, in an act referred to as ''{{s|wikipedia|harisen}}''. The slaps, delivered to the head of the ''boke'', are rapid, repeated, and loud, all characteristics of which were carried into the games.

|
| ==Overview==
| | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the Fan is given paper-like properties and floats to the ground if thrown into the air. |
| [[File:FanIconSSB.png|thumb|The fan in ''SSB''.]] | |
| In all three games that it appears in, the Fan acts as a comical weapon by being in the extremes of attack and speed; while individual hits of the fan are very weak, doing only about 1% to 2%, the ability for characters to quickly use it can allow it to rack up high damages. In addition, this high attack rate makes it difficult for characters to escape the attack, as well as making it easier to potentially trap other characters due to the back [[hitbox]] having [[forward]] [[knockback]], and the front having backwards knockback. However, this can be [[DI]]'d out of vertically, depending on the user and their [[falling speed]]. Any character can escape by SDI'ing in the direction they are being knocked, however, this requires a lot of technical skill.
| |
|
| |
|
| Despite appearing to be exceedingly weak, the Fan does have some surprising power behind it if it is used properly; it has extremely disproportional [[shield damage|shield-breaking ability]], and when thrown, it sends opponents straight up, allowing for potential KOs at very high damage percents. As a result of the latter tactic, a common strategy involves trapping the opponent in a flurry of hits, then throwing the Fan in an attempt to KO the opponent.
| | *When the attack button is tapped, it does between 1-2% [[damage]]. |
| | *When fully charged, it does between 7-13% damage and breaks any shield. |
| | *When dropped, it does 3% damage. |
| | *When thrown at the opponent, it does between 9-12% damage with some strong knockback upwards. |
|
| |
|
| In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the Fan was also given paper-like properties, causing it to float to the ground if thrown into the air. Its slow falling speed also makes it very effective in [[Multi-Man Brawl]], where it will bounce off of enemies and KO any that spawn under it as it falls, without the player having to throw it up in the air again. Despite this, the Fan also lost its ability to bounce on the ground when thrown.
| | Due to its high attack speed in ''Brawl'', it is possible to trap a character into successive hits until they reach 999% damage. However, opponents can sometimes escape the Fan by [[button mashing|mashing buttons]] very rapidly. |

| ==Damage== | | ===Damage=== |
| Because of the Fan's physics, it will not bounce, making it impossible to record bounces. Also, when a Fan receives only downwards momentum, it will immediately go into a falling animation that will only do 1% and have upwards knockback, even when it is aerial down smash thrown. It will start the animation once it is dropped.
| | Note, because of the Fans physics it will not bounce, making it impossible to record bounces, also when a Fan receives '''only''' downwards momentum it will immediately go into a falling animation that will only do 1% and have upwards knockback, even when it is aerial down smash throwed it will start the animation once you have let go of it. |

| *The trophy description of the Fan in ''Brawl'' states that whacking foes with it turns them around. However, this is only true for the Fan's [[tilt]] attack. All other attacks with the Fan simply send the foe toward (neutral) or behind the user (smash). | | *While the trophy description of the Fan in ''Brawl'' says that it can turn foes around, it has no such effect in-game. |
| *The Fan is one of the few items to have been removed after appearing in multiple ''Super Smash Bros.'' titles, with the Fan appearing in three games prior to its removal.
| |
| *Interestingly in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the sound effect for {{SSBU|Jigglypuff}}'s [[Pound]] is named "item_harisen_m" in the game files, suggesting the Fan may have been intended to return in ''Ultimate''.
| |
| *The Japanese name for the Fan, which is ''harisen'', coincides with the Japanese name for {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}'s [[forward smash]] ("Breegull Bash" in English, "Harisen Kazooie" in Japanese). This could be a reference to a manzai act where someone hits another person on the head with a paper fan, while Banjo similarly hits people with Kazooie. Masahiro Sakurai ruminates on the differences in the move's names while demonstrating Banjo & Kazooie's moveset in his [[Mr._Sakurai_Presents#Mr. Sakurai Presents "Banjo & Kazooie"|video presentation of ''Ultimate's'' Challenger Pack 3]].
