Shuries[1] are enemies introduced in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. These starfish creatures are encountered in the underwater areas of Donkey Kong Island and Crocodile Isle alike. Their name is an abbreviation of shuriken, a spinning weapon which incidentally resembles a starfish.
History
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
Shuries are enemies in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. They are encountered in many underwater levels, starting with 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 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 Land 2
Shuries are enemies in Donkey Kong Land 2. They can move in only straight lines, unlike before.
Super Mario-kun
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 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.
DK series
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.
