'''Bianco Hills''' is a hilly and picturesque countryside region in the center of [[Isle Delfino]] and northwest of [[Delfino Plaza]], appearing in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. It can be entered via the [[Goop#Rainbow M|Rainbow M]] on the base of the [[Grand Pianta Statue]] in Delfino Plaza's [[Bianco Square]] once the player defeats [[Shadow Mario]] for the first time. The word "bianco" in its name is Italian for white, probably in reference to the white colored houses, walls, and roads found in the area.


'''Bianco Hills''' is a hilly and picturesque countryside region in the center of [[Isle Delfino]] and northwest of [[Delfino Plaza]], which first appears in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. It can be entered via the [[Graffiti#Rainbow M|Rainbow M]] on the base of the [[Grand Pianta Statue]] in Delfino Plaza's [[Bianco Square]], once the player has collected at least one [[Shine Sprite]]. The region consists of the Windmill Village inhabited by [[Pianta]]s, the upper hilly area, and a large lake. In the center of Bianco Hills lies the [[Big Windmill]], which is located at the end of the lake. During [[Mario]]'s travels to Isle Delfino, much of Bianco Hills was, like other regions of Isle Delfino, covered in [[Graffiti]], which Mario used [[F.L.U.D.D.]] to get rid of. Bianco Hills is also where Mario first battled [[Petey Piranha]]. They first battle inside the Big Windmill, and later they fight a second time in the village. From the starting point of the level, Mario can turn around and then look down and see both Delfino Plaza and [[Ricco Harbor]], though an invisible wall prevents him from jumping down. The name Bianco Hills contains the word "bianco", which is Italian for "white". The name of the level can be translated to "White Hills", which is probably a reference to the white colored houses, walls, and roads found in the area.
In ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', some of the [[Mushroom Course]] holes are very similar, and seem to be based on this area.
==Layout==
Bianco Hills consists of the Windmill Village inhabited by [[Pianta]]s, the upper hilly area, and a large lake. In the center of Bianco Hills lies the [[Big Windmill]], which is located at the end of the lake.  


In ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', some of the [[Mushroom Tourney]] courses are very similar, and seem to be based on this area.
[[Mario]] will start on a cliff overlooking Delfino Plaza, [[Ricco Harbor]], and [[Pinna Park]], which he can view by turning around, but cannot jump down and reach due to an invisible wall. If [[Yoshi]] is rescued, he will appear in his egg here in [[The Red Coins of the Lake|Episode 8]]. Moving forward from the start, Mario will proceed up a sloped area with a brick path and three Piantas and then down the other side of the slope which is continuously being sprayed with water, which will refill [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]] and the player can [[dive|slide]] down. The path will end at a river with a log in it the player can use to get across.  


The musical theme of Bianco Hills is similar to those of [[Gelato Beach]], [[Delfino Plaza]], and [[Ricco Harbor]]. However, it is in the style of European folk music, with prominent use of clarinet, flute, and oboe, accompanied by tambourine, castanets, and harp. It was composed by [[Koji Kondo]].
Beyond the river is the Windmill Village area filled with many buildings and windmills strung together with [[rope]]s. Several Piantas are seen walking around the village, and the red female and the brown male ones in the back are [[chuckster]]s capable of throwing Mario upward. Around the village are several [[Pokey Head|Pokey Pod]]s, many of which are hiding in rings of [[Flower (environmental object)|flowers]] that will release coins if sprayed in a relatively short period of time. There are several [[Poink]]s to the left of the village in some episodes. By using the walls or ropes, Mario can climb onto the top of the houses; one of which has a large platform on top of it that can be turned by spraying the sail with FLUDD. During [[Petey Piranha Strikes Back|Episode 5]], [[Petey Piranha]] will be fought in the village after waking him up. If the [[Turbo Nozzle]] has been found in [[The Secret of the Dirty Lake|Episode 6]], its box will appear at the end of the large wall, and if the [[Rocket Nozzle]] is found during [[The Red Coins of the Lake|Episode 4]], its box will appear on one of the buildings. Along the base of the wall next to the village are several [[Strollin' Stu]]s. Behind the village is a series of terraces leading up to a high cliff. On the other end a large river can be seen below some cliffs, however this river is too high to climb out of and Mario will lose a life if he falls in. There is also a lone pillar-like mound in the middle of this cliff, in Episode 5 Petey Piranha is sleeping here and can be woken up and battled by shooting a one of the nearby Poinks at him.
 
Crossing through the wall next to the village, either through the gate (which is closed during [[Road to the Big Windmill|Episode 1]]), the large waterwheel, or by climbing over the wall entirely, will lead the player to the large lake and surrounding area. Many trees, Pokey Pods, and [[Seedy Pod]]s are found in the grassy area and the ledges to the west of the lake contain a [[Pokey]] and several platforms that lead to [[Red Coin]]s and the [[Shine Sprite]] for The Red Coins of the Lake. There are also many platforms with small windmills on them throughout the lake area, if Mario sprays them with water for a sustained period of time, a coin will spawn on top of the platform. Additionally, if Mario managed to collect 100 coins in Bianco Hills, the Shine Sprite will appear on top of the windmill platform near the top of the village wall. Following the path from the waterwheel will lead across a bridge and to the large windmill in the middle of the lake. The path to the windmill has many bends and gaps in it the player needs to jump or use the [[Hover Nozzle]] to cross, where Petey Piranha can be challenged in Episode 1 and [[Down with Petey Piranha!|Episode 2]]. Platforms underneath the bridge are strung with ropes that will lead the player to the Hillside Cave which can be entered from [[The Hillside Cave Secret|Episode 3]] onward. The lake itself has several [[Skeeter|Pondskater]]s swimming on the surface. In the back of the lake behind the big windmill is the Cliff Spring Cave, which can be entered from Episode 6 onward. Also during Episode 6, the lake is polluted, so the player needs to use lily pads to get around, but they will need to move quickly as the lily pads rot over time.

{{Sunshine episodes table|sortable=yes
[[File:RoadtotheBigWindmill.png|thumb|Mario battling a Polluted Piranha.]]
|image1=[[File:RoadtotheBigWindmill.png|200px]]
The first episode of this level begins with an introduction scene, which shows [[Shadow Mario]] standing near the bridge to the Big Windmill, next to a [[Goop Generator]]. Large parts of the countryside are covered in thick brown Goop, and only the Windmill Village is relatively free of it, although there are some small blobs that generate [[Strollin' Stu]]s. Due to the masses of paint outside of the village, the gate that links the village area and the lakeside area has been closed and Mario has to use a passage over the waterwheel to get to his destination. The lakeside area has some [[Piranhabon]]s popping out of the Goop Generator that keep rolling over the terrain, leaving a trail of Goop behind. Mario has to battle a [[Polluted Piranha]] to proceed. After the battle, a hill with a path emerges and connects to the bridge above. Mario can collect the [[Shine Sprite]] then. Mario can choose to ignore the Shine Sprite and proceed to climb the Big Windmill and battle [[Petey Piranha]], making this the few episodes in the game that can be skipped.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZXA_IcF_Uo</ref> Also, if Mario talks to a [[Pianta]] on the way up, the Pianta will say that Mario is getting ahead of himself.

|episode7=[[Shadow Mario on the Loose]]
Mario has to take the same path like in the previous episode. He must then carefully traverse the large gap in the bridge using the [[Hover Nozzle]], after which he has to continue to walk along the trail leading up to the Big Windmill. The player must be careful not to fall off the side or touch the rolling [[Piranhabon]]s or [[Graffiti|Goop]], until they reach the curved ramp leading partway up the Big Windmill.
|summary7=This episode's objective is to defeat [[Shadow Mario]] as he runs around Windmill Village.
 
|image8=[[File:Red Coins of the Lake.png|200px]]
Climbing this ramp, Mario must now avoid Piranha Plants and more Goop, while periodically using the Hover Nozzle to maneuver around the spiky vines blocking the way. When he finally reaches the top of the ramp, Mario sees the four fan blades of the Big Windmill rotating just above a small landing with a Pianta on it. He must now jump onto one of the platforms located on the ends of the each of the four fan blades and wait until he is gradually carried to the top of the Big Windmill by the fan blades' rotation. Petey Piranha will be waiting on the roof of the Big Windmill, which Mario must jump onto. A brief cutscene shows Petey Piranha screeching, followed by both of them crashing through the roof and landing inside the interior of the Big Windmill, where a boss battle ensues.

For the duration of the battle, Petey is at the center of the circular interior of the Big Windmill. There is Goop covering part of the battle area, and [[Swoopin' Stu]]s and [[Piranha Plant]]s emerge from the Goop to attack the player. During the battle, Petey either uses his head to swipe at Mario or open his mouth to spit many brown Goop. The moment Petey Piranha opens his mouth, Mario must use [[F.L.U.D.D.]] to fill Petey Piranha's belly with water. Once Petey Piranha is full, he falls, giving Mario an opportunity to [[Ground Pound]] his belly button, which will cause Petey Piranha to spit the water and sustain damage. Mario must repeat this procedure an additional two times, until Petey dissolves into brown Goop and releases his Shine Sprite for Mario.

Before the mission starts the player is shown there is an opening in the mountainside right over the lake. Mario has to travel to this cave in order to receive a Shine Sprite. Since the Goop is gone from the level, the gate connecting the two big level areas has been re-opened and Mario can simply pass through it. To reach the cave, Mario can make use of several platforms and ropes below the bridge to the windmill. Dodging the [[Wire Trap]]s along the way, he makes his way towards his destination.

When Mario enters the cave, Shadow Mario will show up and steal F.L.U.D.D., leaving him on his own. Mario has to rely on his jumping skills alone to pass the various criss-crossing blocks, large cubes which could push him off into a [[Pit (obstacle)|bottomless pit]], and rotating stars that build a floating path. At the end near a palm tree, a Shine Sprite awaits. After Mario clears this level, he can access it with F.L.U.D.D. and a Red Coin challenge awaits.

This episode is a [[Red Coin]] challenge, so Mario has to collect eight Red Coins that are hidden all over the village to make a Shine Sprite appear. The coins can be found on top of the various buildings, but some of them are also hidden on the great wall that separates the village from the lakeside. Wire Traps and [[Wind Spirit]]s will try to impede the player's progress, so they have to be avoided. Mario can make the wooden platforms in the middle of the village rotate by squirting water at the big, windmill-like objects attached to them. After the player collects every Red Coin, a Shine Sprite will appear on a platform high above the village, which can be accessed via a rope.

|episode7=All
As the player enters the level it is revealed to them that Windmill Village is now covered in Goop. Some of the villagers are buried under it, so Mario must clean and free them. The villagers will tell Mario they saw a huge plant creature venturing to the cliffs north of town. Mario can make his way up to the cliffside using F.L.U.D.D., or he can make use of a Pianta near the cliff who will throw Mario if he talks to him after rescuing him from the Goop. If the timing is right, the player can use this to make Mario get up on top of the cliffs. There, he will find Petey Piranha once again, sleeping. Mario can make him wake up by shooting a [[Poink]] at him, which will cause Petey to fly over and attack the village.
|episode8=All
 
|episode9=All
Petey Piranha will use his leaves to move through the air and hover over Windmill Village. Occasionally, he will spit blobs of Goop at Mario. Mario must bring him down by spraying water or shooting a Poink at him while he is not moving, as he is invulnerable while in motion. After being hit, Petey will fall down, giving Mario a chance to attack him. On the ground, Petey can whip up [[Tweester]]s that blow Mario away, or use the Goop-spitting attack from Episode 2. Like before, Mario has to fill him up with water until he falls over and ground-pound his belly to harm him. Petey will then rise into the air and has to be brought down again. This must be done three times for Mario to receive a [[Shine Sprite]].

As the mission starts the player is shown that  the lake has become polluted with toxic [[Graffiti|Goop]], turning the water into an expansive health hazard for [[Mario]]. He must therefore find the source of the pollution, which comes in the form of the [[Cliff Spring Cave]], a small cave near the lake with toxic Goop oozing out of it. Mario must make effective use of the lily pads floating on the surface of the lake to move carefully over to the cave. However, the player must be extremely cautious, as the poisonous effect of the toxic water causes the lily pads to rot away if Mario remains on them for too long. Alternately, he can simply perform a [[Spin Jump]] from the path near the Big Windmill and then use the [[Hover Nozzle]] to reach several floating logs near the mouth of the cave.

Inside the cave, another secret level challenge awaits Mario, who again has [[F.L.U.D.D.]] taken away from him by [[Shadow Mario]]. The challenge consists of various orange and blue flipping platforms, floating cubes that rotate in midair (forcing Mario to switch his position on the cube so he doesn't fall off), and a pair of fast-moving triangular blocks that will try to push Mario off the ledge. The player also has the opportunity to collect two [[1-Up Mushroom]]s along the way. At the end of the level, near a palm tree, the [[Shine Sprite]] awaits. A timed [[Red Coin]] challenge can be accessed if Mario re-enters this level after he has already completed it the first time.

===Episode 7: Shadow Mario on the Loose===
[[File:It's_Shadow_Mario!_After_Him!.png|thumb|[[Mario]] chasing [[Shadow Mario]] through the Windmill Village.]]
This is the Shadow Mario episode of Bianco Hills. The player has to complete it in order to gain access to the [[Corona Mountain|final level]] and beat the [[Bowser|final boss]]. The episode sets in with a view of the level access area and zooms in on Shadow Mario who is waiting in front of the wet slope. Mario has to pursue him through Windmill Village and spray him with water until he gives up and releases a Shine Sprite. For some unexplained reason, Shadow Mario is shown swimming through the river that runs through Windmill Village without taking damage.

Mario has to collect another set of eight Red Coins in order to complete this challenge. The coins are positioned over the lake and Mario has to use wooden platforms and ropes to collect all of them, while avoiding Wire Traps and Wind Spirits which will try to make him fall down. F.L.U.D.D.'s [[F.L.U.D.D.#Nozzles|Rocket Nozzle]] can prove useful when trying to reach the ropes high over the lake.
 
A [[Yoshi Egg]] can be found at the beginning of the level with a fruit with it, being the only level in Bianco Hills that has [[Yoshi]] in it. However, Yoshi has no main use in this episode, besides collecting few [[Blue Coin]]s.

“Bianco Hills is a rather interesting place, huh? We have falling goop and all sorts of other oddities!”
Pianta, Super Mario Sunshine

Bianco Hills is a hilly and picturesque countryside region in the center of Isle Delfino and northwest of Delfino Plaza, appearing in Super Mario Sunshine. It can be entered via the Rainbow M on the base of the Grand Pianta Statue in Delfino Plaza's Bianco Square once the player defeats Shadow Mario for the first time. The word "bianco" in its name is Italian for white, probably in reference to the white colored houses, walls, and roads found in the area.

In Mario Golf: Advance Tour, some of the Mushroom Course holes are very similar, and seem to be based on this area.

Layout[edit]

Bianco Hills consists of the Windmill Village inhabited by Piantas, the upper hilly area, and a large lake. In the center of Bianco Hills lies the Big Windmill, which is located at the end of the lake.

Mario will start on a cliff overlooking Delfino Plaza, Ricco Harbor, and Pinna Park, which he can view by turning around, but cannot jump down and reach due to an invisible wall. If Yoshi is rescued, he will appear in his egg here in Episode 8. Moving forward from the start, Mario will proceed up a sloped area with a brick path and three Piantas and then down the other side of the slope which is continuously being sprayed with water, which will refill FLUDD and the player can slide down. The path will end at a river with a log in it the player can use to get across.

Beyond the river is the Windmill Village area filled with many buildings and windmills strung together with ropes. Several Piantas are seen walking around the village, and the red female and the brown male ones in the back are chucksters capable of throwing Mario upward. Around the village are several Pokey Pods, many of which are hiding in rings of flowers that will release coins if sprayed in a relatively short period of time. There are several Poinks to the left of the village in some episodes. By using the walls or ropes, Mario can climb onto the top of the houses; one of which has a large platform on top of it that can be turned by spraying the sail with FLUDD. During Episode 5, Petey Piranha will be fought in the village after waking him up. If the Turbo Nozzle has been found in Episode 6, its box will appear at the end of the large wall, and if the Rocket Nozzle is found during Episode 4, its box will appear on one of the buildings. Along the base of the wall next to the village are several Strollin' Stus. Behind the village is a series of terraces leading up to a high cliff. On the other end a large river can be seen below some cliffs, however this river is too high to climb out of and Mario will lose a life if he falls in. There is also a lone pillar-like mound in the middle of this cliff, in Episode 5 Petey Piranha is sleeping here and can be woken up and battled by shooting a one of the nearby Poinks at him.

Crossing through the wall next to the village, either through the gate (which is closed during Episode 1), the large waterwheel, or by climbing over the wall entirely, will lead the player to the large lake and surrounding area. Many trees, Pokey Pods, and Seedy Pods are found in the grassy area and the ledges to the west of the lake contain a Pokey and several platforms that lead to Red Coins and the Shine Sprite for The Red Coins of the Lake. There are also many platforms with small windmills on them throughout the lake area, if Mario sprays them with water for a sustained period of time, a coin will spawn on top of the platform. Additionally, if Mario managed to collect 100 coins in Bianco Hills, the Shine Sprite will appear on top of the windmill platform near the top of the village wall. Following the path from the waterwheel will lead across a bridge and to the large windmill in the middle of the lake. The path to the windmill has many bends and gaps in it the player needs to jump or use the Hover Nozzle to cross, where Petey Piranha can be challenged in Episode 1 and Episode 2. Platforms underneath the bridge are strung with ropes that will lead the player to the Hillside Cave which can be entered from Episode 3 onward. The lake itself has several Pondskaters swimming on the surface. In the back of the lake behind the big windmill is the Cliff Spring Cave, which can be entered from Episode 6 onward. Also during Episode 6, the lake is polluted, so the player needs to use lily pads to get around, but they will need to move quickly as the lily pads rot over time.

Main article: Isle Delfino (theme)

The "Bianco Hills" theme is an arrangement of the "Isle Delfino" theme in the key of C major, similar to the themes of Gelato Beach and Ricco Harbor. However, this arrangement is in the style of European folk music, with prominent use of clarinet, flute, and oboe, accompanied by tambourine, castanets, and harp. It was composed by Koji Kondo.

Trivia[edit]

Bianco Hills as shown in the Super Mario Sunshine intro. Mario also can be seen in the lower right part of the image.
  • Part of Bianco Hills can be seen during the opening sequence of Super Mario Sunshine, in the welcome video. Here, Mario with FLUDD can be seen in the lower right part of the screen, close to the lake. This is a development error, since Mario has neither visited Isle Delfino nor met FLUDD yet at this time.
  • Among the seven main courses in the game, this is the only level in which all 30 blue coins can be collected in one visit; this is possible by selecting Episode 8 (The Red Coins of the Lake).
  • This is one of only two worlds in the game with a death pit. The other, Pianta Village, is suspended by three giant trees over a giant bottomless pit. Bianco Hills has a small area at the northwestern corner of the map where there is a platform in the middle of a lake; a player who falls into the water in this lake will instantly lose a life. Spraying the platform will reward the player with one blue coin.
  • In the Super Mario 3D All-Stars version of Super Mario Sunshine, prior to version 1.1.0, debug cubes in the game's second secret area were visible.
  • The player can complete Episode 2 (Down with Petey Piranha!) before Episode 1 (Road to the Big Windmill) by either avoiding the Shine Sprite at the end of the latter episode and continuing up the windmill, or by bouncing on a Pondskater in the lake up to the windmill.
  • This is the only level where the player can access its Secret Courses outside of its featured Episode. The Hillside Cave can be visited anytime after completing Episode 3 (The Hillside Cave Secret) and the Cliffspring Cave can be visited anytime after completing Episode 6 (The Secret of the Dirty Lake).
