Galeem (キーラ, Kiira) is a character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's Adventure Mode: World of Light, described as the "ultimate enemy" in the World of Light. Prior to the events of the mode, Galeem attacks the fighters, commanding an army of Master Hands. It seemingly destroys all but Kirby and engulfs the entire galaxy in a burst of light, leaving the world a barren wasteland inhabited by hostile Spirits and dark version of the fighters whose trophies were captured by Galeem.

Trivia
- Galeem's name is a corruption of the word "gleam," and its name in Japanese is a corruption of the Japanese onomatopoeia "キラキラ" (shine, twinkle). Both names are tied to the Adventure Mode motif of light.
- Kiira is additionally similar to the Japanese transliteration of "killer" (キラー, Kiraa), using the same characters aside from the placement of the long-vowel mark.
- The wings on Galeem's body glow in the same colors as the ones on the Super Smash Bros. 4 logos.
- Its appearance as an ethereal being of light with six wings resembles Seraphim.
- In the Abrahamic religions, the appearance of a Seraphim in the mortal realm signifies the end of the world. This reflects Galeem's role in World of Light as the one who attempted to destroy everyone in existence turning them all into Spirits.
