Article on Super Mario Wiki Banzai Bill

Banzai Bill (マグナムキラー, Magnum Killer) is a character/weapon that is part of the Mario universe. They are larger versions of Bullet Bills but without white arms and hands, while having a mouth with a shark-like smile.

In Super Smash Bros.

Banzai Bills in Super Smash Bros.

In SSB, Banzai Bills are gold and are found as missiles that are fired from Master Hand when he uses his Finger Bullet move. He fires one set of two Banzai Bills when above 100 HP and three sets if below. Each bullet does 5% damage.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

The Banzai Bill on Princess Peach's Castle.

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.

Banzai Bills also appear occasionally in the background of the stage Yoshi's Island with their original 2D appearance from Super Mario World.

Trophy information

Banzai Bill
Bullet Bills are shot out of cannons and fly on straight paths. In great numbers they're a nightmare; while Mario can stop most with a single jump, the giant one, Banzai Bill, is much tougher to avoid. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, only Banzai Bills can be seen. They burrow into Princess Peach's castle and then detonate with immense power.

In early versions of Melee, the Banzai Bill trophy is named "Bullet Bill", and says "all Bullet Bills (in Melee) are extra large" instead of naming Banzai Bills at all; in reality, Bullet Bills are similar-looking but different enemies.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Like in Melee, 2D Banzai Bills appear in the background of Yoshi's Island.

In Super Smash Bros. 4

Like in Melee and Brawl, 2D Banzai Bills appear in the background of Yoshi's Island.

In Smash Run

Banzai Bills appear as enemies in Smash Run. They chase the player, curving to follow them, doing 6% damage, and can get stuck into the ground: if they are not destroyed in time they will explode, causing heavy damage and knockback to a nearby player.

In Smash Tour

A Banzai Bill can appear as a random event in Smash Tour. A warning appears at the beginning of the turn, and at the end a Banzai Bill hits the board and explodes, dropping numerous stat boosts and launching any Miis caught in the blast.

Trophy Description

The Banzai Bill trophy appears in both versions of the game.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Ntsc A giant bullet-like menace from the Mario series. In Smash Run, they want nothing more than to blow up on you. If you trick them into crashing, they'll get stuck and blow up soon after. Beware that lethal blast radius! Beat one before it blows up to get a banzai bonanza of stats. Tricky, but well worth the effort!

Banzai Bills reappear in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as stage hazards on the returning Princess Peach's Castle stage. While their behavior appears to be unchanged from Melee, their appearance has been changed to match more recent Mario games.

Origin

Sprite from Super Mario World.

Banzai Bills first appeared in Super Mario World. Unlike the smaller Bullet Bills they are not shot from Bill Blasters, 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.
