'''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 an abbreviation of {{wp|shuriken}}, a spinning weapon which incidentally resembles a starfish. Shuries are shaped like a shuriken, and they spin like one while moving around.


==History==
'''Shuries'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, [[Media:DKC2 Manual 28-29.jpg|page 29]].</ref> are malevolent starfish that prowl the waters of [[Donkey Kong Island]] and [[Crocodile Isle]]. The name Shuri is derived from the throwing weapon [[Wikipedia:Shuriken|'''shuri'''ken]], which incidentally resembles a star.
===''Donkey Kong'' series===
====''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 in diagonal lines and bounce off the walls. The pink Shuries await [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] in a corner, and when the [[Kong]]s approach a Pink Shuri, it spins in their direction. Like other enemies, if the lead Kong gets hit by a Shuri, they take damage. Like most aquatic foes, Shuries can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]].


In the ending's Cast of Characters, Shuries appear under the [[Submerged Seadogs]] category.
Shuries first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' as semi-common enemies in the game's various underwater levels. Shuries have two attack patterns. Pink Shuries wait for the [[Kong]]s to approach and then charge at them while spinning rapidly. On the other hand, the orange variety spin through the water and bounce off walls, damaging anything that gets too close. Shuries can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]].


====''Donkey Kong Land 2''====
Shuries also appear in ''Donkey Kong Country 2''{{'}}s pseudo-sequel ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. In this game, their attack pattern is the same.
Shuries also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Because of the [[Game Boy]]'s monochromatic palette, their color variants are not present. Shuries can only move in straight lines.
{{stub|section=yes}}


====''Donkey Kong 64''====
Shuries make another reappearance in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', along with [[Scubi|a scuba-themed variety]]. In this game, Shuries are rare enemies only encountered in a few underwater areas. Their attack pattern is also similar to the orange variety of Shuri from ''Donkey Kong Country 2''. Shuries cannot be defeated in this game.
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''. It is possible to defeat a Shuri using Oranges, but this can only be accomplished in one of [[Angry Aztec]]'s temples, and it does not yield any melon slices for doing so. No other attack works on it, not even Enguarde in [[Gloomy Galleon]].


The game introduces a purple variant of Shuri in scuba gear, named [[Scubi]].
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''====
==Names in other languages==
Shuries also appear in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'' and its sequel ''[[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 Shuri.
