'''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. Their overall look and Japanese name suggests they are directly based on {{wp|great white shark}}s.

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'').

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'') seems derived from the Japanese name for great white sharks,「頬白鮫」(''hōjirozame'').
