| '''Sushi''', occasionally pluralized as '''Sushies''',<ref>{{cite|quote=The one filled with Dolphins and Sushies and all the sunshine a guy could ever need? That's Blooper Beach!|author=[[Bowser]]|title=''[[Mario Party 9]]'' by [[Nintendo Cube|NDcube]]|format=North American localization|date=March 11, 2012|publisher=[[Nintendo|Nintendo of America]]}}</ref> are somewhat recurring shark enemies in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise that debuted in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Though their design has varied throughout history, Sushi are generally depicted as large-bodied sharks with broad heads and pointed snouts. Originally drably colored, Sushi have more consistently been depicted with vibrant blue dorsa and white underbellies since their standardized redesign introduced in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. This pattern emulates the {{wp|countershading}} of real sharks.

|
| |
|
| In the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series, Sushi idly swim and direct contact damages the player character. They do not not actively pursue or attack the player. Their behavior is more diverse in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series, in which they have made the majority of their appearances. Like [[Maw-Ray|Unagi]], another fish enemy introduced in ''Super Mario 64'', Sushi share their English name with a {{wp|sushi|Japanese dish}}. Their Japanese name 「ホージロー」(''Hōjirō'') suggests they are directly based on {{wp|great white shark}}s, known in Japanese as 「頬白鮫」(''hōjirozame'').
| | '''Sushis''' are a shark-like enemy found in several [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' games]]. |

| | Sushis first appeared in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', where they could be found in [[Dire, Dire Docks]]. These sharks swim around, minding their own business. There is no way to attack them, and they usually won't bother [[Mario]], unless he accidentally swims into them. |

The Sushi swim around in circles with no active intent to hurt the player character, but one of them will get hurt if they bump into the Sushi. Sushi can neither be attacked nor defeated.

| A Sushi appears in the [[Treasure Divers]] minigame of ''[[Mario Party]]'', swimming from one side of the screen to the other, alongside two [[Blooper]]s. If it collides with one of the playable characters, it stuns them briefly, causing them to drop their treasure chest if they are carrying one.

| Sushi is in charge of the torpedo controls of [[Deep Bloober Sea]], a board in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''. This Sushi will ask everyone who passes to push one of four buttons upon reaching a fork; one of them serves as the detonator, which will fire a torpedo when pushed, forcing the player to take the path they didn't select. A Sushi is also present in the minigames [[Dizzy Dinghies]] and [[Swinging with Sharks]]. A large pink shark resembling a Sushi is also visible in the foreground of Deep Bloober Sea, which seems to be pursuing a giant turquoise eel. | | In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', a Sushi appears in [[Deep Bloober Sea]], and is in charge of the torpedo controls.

| | In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', a Sushi residing in [[Sushi Cliff]] appears asking the player for help after [[Shroomlock]] was pulled into the sea. |
| In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Sushi appears in the [[seaside area]] of [[Shroom City (Mario Party Advance)|Shroom City]]. He commonly surrounds the ocean near [[Sushi Cliff]]<ref>{{cite|quote=Always near Sushi Cliff (in the water).|author=Title|title=''Mario Party Advance''|date=2005|publisher=Nintendo|language=en}}</ref> and despises criminals.<ref>{{cite|quote=Has a sharp tongue and even sharper teeth.

| In the 1-vs-3 minigame [[Be My Chum!]] of ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', Sushi is one of the enemies that the single player can call from the [[Nintendo GameCube#Nintendo GameCube Microphone|Nintendo GameCube Microphone]] to attack the other players.

| ====''Mario Party 9''====
| |
| In ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', Sushi appear only on the board [[Blooper Beach]]. They appear after the player runs into a [[Dolphin]]. They advance from behind the player, moving four spaces per turn. If they catch up to the vehicle, then the captain loses half of their [[Mini Star]]s; it is then replaced by a Dolphin. If the player is near the first [[Boss Battle Space]] when a Sushi is the active creature, it swims away. Sushi are one of the characters with no constellation in their likeness.

| In ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'', Sushi makes minor appearances in several minigames, such as a possible standee image in both the [[Trading Cards]] and [[Luigi Rescue Operation]] minigames. Sushi also returns as a hazard in the [[Treasure Divers]] minigame, swimming across the screen and causing players to drop any chest they may be carrying.

| While no Sushi physically appear in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', three [[kart]]s based on Sushi appear: the [[Pirate Sushi Racer]], introduced in the [[Pirate Tour]]; the [[Sushi Racer]], introduced in the [[Los Angeles Tour (2020)|2020 Los Angeles Tour]]; and the [[Gold Sushi Racer]], introduced in the [[Bowser Tour (2023)|2023 Bowser Tour]].

| ===''Dr. Mario World''===
| |
| Sushi appears in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as an assistant. In stage mode, it has a chance of eliminating the remaining blue viruses when there are only two of them left regardless of how many hits they take to eliminate, but it only activates once throughout the stage, meaning that it will not activate again in a scrolling stage or Daily Booster after the effect successfully activated once despite the condition being met again. In versus mode, it grants a chance in defending against two-line attacks, which does not stack with the doctor's innate defense. One also appears on the [[World 18 (Dr. Mario World)|World 18]] map after all the levels are cleared, alongside some [[Cheep Cheep]]s and [[Deep Cheep]]s. A Sushi assistant is rewarded after clearing the first area in World 18.
