Superspicy Curry

Superspicy Curry

Superspicy Curry is an item from the Kirby universe that literally burns the user's body. The user is then able to attack as usual, but they have constant flames erupting in front of them from their mouth in an up-and-down sweep. (While the flames come from the user's mouth, they always face the same direction as the character, even when tumbling or some other not-facing-forwards animation.) Dojo!! states that it is different from the Fire Flower because the flames of the curry are constant, even while performing other attacks. This item causes a status change instead of being used as a weapon. A character under the effect of Superspicy Curry cannot walk, instead he/she always dashes. The flames from the Curry are energy projectiles, making Curry-affected players extremely susceptible to characters like Fox and Wolf who have excellent reflecting moves, or Ness and Lucas who can absorb attacks. It also makes being around explosives a bad idea.

While the stream of fire doesn't normally end until the effect wears off, it is temporarily suspended if the character grabs someone. This is to prevent the fire from creating a sort of wobble. The fire resumes when the grabbed character is released.

"Curry" is also a mode in Special Brawl, which gives all players a permanent "Curry" status.

One can perform a glitch with the hot curry as well.

Origin

This was an item in Kirby's Dream Land that granted Kirby the ability to spit fireballs. However, this has not appeared in later Kirby games (likely because of the innovation of copy abilities in Kirby's Adventure).

Trophy Info

The spiciest curry around. Eat it, and you'll be able to attack by spitting out fireballs. The eater of the curry will soon be unable to handle the heat, however, and end up frantically dashing about the screen. This is a pretty funny sight that never gets old, especially when it's Samus or Snake. Eat this mouth-scorching dish if you dare.

• Kirby's Dream Land (1992)

Trivia

• When one play as Kirby or King Dedede, and uses inhale/swallow on an opponent, the fire from the curry dissapears(the fire around the player will still be there).
• When one is under curry effect, one can damage using one's taunt, like R.O.B.'s Diffusor Beam. This is good for covering a better range
