Shantae (シャンティ, Shantae) is the main protagonist of the Shantae series.

Origin

An icon for denoting incomplete things.

Shantae serves as the Guardian Genie of Scuttle Town, residing in a small lighthouse by the sea where she can spot incoming ships. However, she is initially afraid of the citizens discovering her Half-Genie status. In the original Shantae, she chases the villainous Risky Boots, in order to stop her plans.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

As a costume

A Mii Brawler in the Shantae costume.

Shantae will be released as a DLC Mii Brawler costume on June 29th, 2021, alongside Kazuya Mishima. Following Sans and Cuphead, she is the third indie character to appear as a Mii costume. Upon downloading the costume, the song Burning Town is unlocked as an additional music track in the "Other" category.

There are a few notable references in the Shantae costume's reveal trailer. Shantae is introduced on The Great Cave Offensive stage, due to most of her games being Metroidvania platformers with large maps similar to the stage. She is shown fighting King K. Rool and an army of Mr. Game & Watches, in reference to her arch nemesis Risky Boots and the Tinkerbats. She is then shown taunting, disappearing in the smoke from a Smoke Ball, and then coming out of the smoke wearing the Monkey Mii outfit, based on her home series's dance transformation mechanics and specifically the monkey transformation.
