'''Shuries'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, [[Media:DKC2 Manual 28-29.jpg|page 29]].</ref> are starfish enemies that first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They appear in the underwater areas of [[Donkey Kong Island]] and [[Crocodile Isle]]. Their name is derived from [[Wikipedia:Shuriken|'''shuri'''ken]], a spinning weapon which incidentally resembles a starfish. Shuries are shaped like a shuriken, and they spin like one while moving around.


==History==
==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''===
===''Donkey Kong'' series===
Shuries are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. They are encountered in many underwater levels, starting with [[Lockjaw's Locker (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Lockjaw's Locker]]. Shuries appear in orange and pink variations; the former type spins through the water in diagonal lines and bounces off of walls, while the latter type awaits [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] in a corner before spinning in their direction. A Shuri can damage the Kongs on contact, like with other enemies. Shuries can be defeated by [[Enguarde]] only. In the cast roll, a Shuri is grouped as part of the [[Submerged Seadogs]].
====''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''====
In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Shuries appear in many underwater levels, starting with [[Lockjaw's Locker (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lockjaw's Locker]]. There are two color variants, orange and pink, and they have slightly distinctive behavior. The orange Shuries spin through the water and bounce off the walls. The pink Shuries await [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] in a corner, and upon noticing them, the Shuri rapidly spins in the Kongs' direction. Like other enemies, if the [[Kong]]s get hit by Shuri, the player loses a Kong. Shuries can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]].


===''Donkey Kong Land 2''===
In the ending's Cast of Characters, Shuries appear under the [[Submerged Seadogs]] category.
Shuries are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They can move in only straight lines, unlike before.


===''Super Mario-kun''===
====''Donkey Kong Land 2''====
[[File:ShuriKun.png|thumb|150px|A Shuri in ''Super Mario-kun'']]
Shuries also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Due to the [[Game Boy]]'s monochromatic palette, Shuries do not appear in their color variants.
A Shuri makes a brief cameo in Volume 14 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. The last part of the book has a series of comics based on ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', including a 'find the differences' activity between several enemies, including Shuri.

====''Donkey Kong 64''====
Shuries make another appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. They are uncommon enemies who are only encountered in a few underwater areas. Shuries are larger than in their previous appearances. Only the orange Shuries reappear, and they were made slightly larger. The Shuries retain their attack patterns from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. Unlike their previous appearances, Shuries cannot be defeated.
 
The game introduces a purple variant of Shuri in scuba gear, named [[Scubi]].


===''Donkey Kong 64''===
====''DK: King of Swing'' / ''DK: Jungle Climber''====
Shuries are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. They are encountered in a few underwater areas only, and all of them are colored orange. Shuries were also given a purple variant in scuba gear, [[Scubi]]. Shuries retain their attack patterns from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. In one of [[Angry Aztec]]'s temples, it is possible to defeat a [[Shuri]] with an [[Orange]], although it does not yield any melon slices for doing so; besides this, Shuries cannot be defeated otherwise.
Shuries also appear in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and its sequel ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'', where their attack patterns still remain the same.


===''DK: King of Swing'' / ''DK: Jungle Climber''===
===''Super Mario-kun''===
Shuries are enemies in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]''. In both games, they retain their attack pattern, and can be defeated from a charge attack.

A Shuri makes a brief cameo in Volume 14 of ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]''. The last part of the book has a series of comics based on ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', including a 'find the differences' activity between several enemies, including Neek.
