The Superspicy Curry first appeared as an item in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. If [[Kirby]] consumed the item, he would temporarily be given the ability to spit individual fireballs at his enemies, referencing the spiciness of its [[wikipedia:Curry|real-world counterpart]]; ''Kirby's Dream Land'' did not allow Kirby to copy the abilities of his enemies, and as such, the item can be considered a precursor to his trademark ability to copy abilities. To date, the item has not reappeared in the series, primarily because the item's use has been superseded by Fire Kirby and other transformations. In the port included in ''Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition'', the instruction manual on the Home Menu simply calls it "Hot Food".

The Superspicy Curry was also in the episode "A Spice Odyssey" ("The Hot Shot Chef" in Japan) from the ''Kirby'' anime, ''[[wikirby:Kirby: Right Back at Ya!|Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' (called ''Hoshi no Kabi'', meaning ''Kirby of the Stars'', in Japan), though it was renamed ''Toxic Atomic Curry''. Unlike how it worked in ''Kirby's Dream Land'', whenever someone ate the curry, they would release an uncontrollable stream of fire from their mouth rather than multiple fireballs; in the episode, Kirby uses the curry in order to defeat the Demon Beast of Monsieur Goan.

==Operation==
==Overview==
Upon consumption of the Superspicy Curry, the user will continuously have flames erupting from their mouth in an up-and-down flame pattern for thirteen seconds. While similar in effect to the [[Fire Flower]], the character can still attack throughout the transformation; as these flames cannot be interrupted outside of grabbing, players can even inflict damage while [[taunting]]. While the flames deal only 1% per hit, the "fanning" motion of the numerous hitboxes and their low knockback can allow the player to inflict considerable damage on their opponents if they force them against walls or otherwise find another method to keep them in place. The individual flames of the item, however, are considered to be energy-based projectiles, and as such, they can be [[reflect]]ed and even [[absorb]]ed. In addition the flames disappear if the player [[grab]]s an opponent, likely to prevent forming an overly powerful [[wobble]] effect.

In addition the flames disappear if the player [[grab]]s an opponent, likely to prevent forming an overly powerful [[wobble]] effect.


The Superspicy Curry also affects the user's movement, forcing players to constantly [[dash]] instead of [[walk]] whenever moving, with the animation itself comically playing much faster than usual.
In ''Brawl'' and ''for Wii U'', the Superspicy Curry also affects the user's movement, forcing players to constantly [[dash]] instead of [[walk]] whenever moving, with the animation itself comically playing much faster than usual. In ''Ultimate'', it no longer forces the user to dash constantly when consumed, thus allowing them to freely use their [[forward tilt]]s.


As an added cosmetic effect, the [[idle pose]] of players is humorously changed in order to reference their consumption of the item. While some of these changed idle poses might change the orientation of the character ([[Toon Link]], for instance, constantly spins in place under its effects, while Marth frequently jumps in the air while comically flailing his arms and legs), the flames stay in place. In ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', most characters are more expressive as their faces turn red while under the effects. In ''Ultimate'', their expressions are also displayed during other animations, such as crouching and putting up their shield.

Article on Wikirby Superspicy Curry

Superspicy Curry (激辛カレーライス, Spicy Curry Rice) is an item in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, hailing from the Kirby universe. The item acts as a transformation item that not only allows the player to constantly spew either fireballs in Brawl or a stream of fire in SSB4 and Ultimate, but also changes the mechanics of their movement.

Origin[edit]

The Spicy Curry in Kirby's Dream Land.

The Superspicy Curry first appeared as an item in Kirby's Dream Land. If Kirby consumed the item, he would temporarily be given the ability to spit individual fireballs at his enemies, referencing the spiciness of its real-world counterpart; Kirby's Dream Land did not allow Kirby to copy the abilities of his enemies, and as such, the item can be considered a precursor to his trademark ability to copy abilities. To date, the item has not reappeared in the series, primarily because the item's use has been superseded by Fire Kirby and other transformations. In the port included in Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition, the instruction manual on the Home Menu simply calls it "Hot Food".

Kirby breathing fire after consuming the curry in the anime, Kirby: Right Back at Ya!.

The Superspicy Curry was also in the episode "A Spice Odyssey", also referred to as The Hot Shot Chef ("Spicy! Family Restaurant War" in Japanese) from the Kirby anime, Kirby: Right Back at Ya! (called Hoshi no Kabi, meaning Kirby of the Stars, in Japanese), though it was renamed Toxic Atomic Curry in English. Unlike how it worked in Kirby's Dream Land, whenever someone ate the curry, they would release an uncontrollable stream of fire from their mouth rather than multiple fireballs; in the episode, Kirby uses the curry in order to defeat Monsieur Goan.

Overview[edit]

Upon consumption of the Superspicy Curry, the user will continuously have flames erupting from their mouth in an up-and-down flame pattern for thirteen seconds. While similar in effect to the Fire Flower, the character can still attack throughout the transformation; as these flames cannot be interrupted outside of grabbing, players can even inflict damage while taunting. While the flames deal only 1% per hit, the "fanning" motion of the numerous hitboxes and their low knockback can allow the player to inflict considerable damage on their opponents if they force them against walls or otherwise find another method to keep them in place. The individual flames of the item, however, are considered to be energy-based projectiles, and as such, they can be reflected and even absorbed. In addition the flames disappear if the player grabs an opponent, likely to prevent forming an overly powerful wobble effect.

In Brawl and for Wii U, the Superspicy Curry also affects the user's movement, forcing players to constantly dash instead of walk whenever moving, with the animation itself comically playing much faster than usual. In Ultimate, it no longer forces the user to dash constantly when consumed, thus allowing them to freely use their forward tilts.

As an added cosmetic effect, the idle pose of players is humorously changed in order to reference their consumption of the item. While some of these changed idle poses might change the orientation of the character (Toon Link, for instance, constantly spins in place under its effects, while Marth frequently jumps in the air while comically flailing his arms and legs), the flames stay in place. In Smash 4 and Ultimate, most characters are more expressive as their faces turn red while under the effects. In Ultimate, their expressions are also displayed during other animations, such as crouching and putting up their shield.

As a Special Smash option[edit]

"Curry" is among the various modifiers available in Brawl's Special Brawl, for Wii U's Special Smash, and Ultimate' Custom Smash. When selected, it puts all players in a permanent curry status.

Spirits[edit]

While the Superspicy Curry itself does not have a spirit, the item appears as an ability for the primary spirit Paper Bowser (Paper Mario: Sticker Star) and the support spirits Blargg, Arcanine, Mist, Twinbellows, Blaze the Cat, and Chef (Personal Trainer: Cooking). Using any of the listed spirits will equip the player with Superspicy Curry at the start of a match. Using the Ender Dragon spirit will give a special version of Superspicy Curry that has extra range.

  • In Kirby Mass Attack, the Superspicy Curry appears with the Super Smash Bros. design in the minigame Kirby Quest.
