-'''Phantamanta''', or the '''Manta Storm''', is a [[List of bosses|boss]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', who appears in the [[Sirena_Beach#Episode_1:_The_Manta_Storm|first episode]] of [[Sirena Beach]]. It is the cause of the [[Hotel Delfino]]'s disappearance. It is a pale pink silhouette of a [[manta]] ray, and its name is a pun on "phantom" and "manta". When [[Mario]] sprays it with water from [[F.L.U.D.D.]], it splits into smaller versions of itself. It possesses the uncanny ability to project itself over any surface of varying elevations instantaneously, much like a shadow.
+'''Phantamanta''', or simply '''Manta''', is a [[List of bosses|boss]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', who appears in the [[Sirena_Beach#Episode_1:_The_Manta_Storm|first episode]] of [[Sirena Beach]]. It is the cause of the [[Hotel Delfino]]'s disappearance. It is a pale pink silhouette of a [[manta]] ray, and its name is a pun on "phantom" and "manta". When [[Mario]] sprays it with water from [[F.L.U.D.D.]], it splits into smaller versions of itself. It possesses the uncanny ability to project itself over any surface of varying elevations instantaneously, much like a shadow.
 Wherever Phantamanta moves, it leaves a trail of teal and yellow [[Graffiti#Electric Graffiti|electric goop]], which Mario can spray with F.L.U.D.D. If there is even a tiny drop of it left, Mario can get shocked when he touches it. The only area where the Phantamanta cannot reach Mario is if he is under one of the two huts. In addition, if Mario stands in the water, the Phantamanta can still reach him, but cannot produce goop. Upon contact with F.L.U.D.D.'s water, Phantamanta first divides into two. Each of those Mantas can divide into two more. Each of those divide into four Mantas. And, each of those can further divide into four more Mantas, making a total of 64 Mantas to defeat. When all of the Mantas have fully divided, they will turn purple with anger and start swarming towards Mario; until this point, the smallest Mantas do not pursue him, but all the larger sizes will. Once the last one is vanquished, Hotel Delfino will be restored, revealing a [[Shine Sprite]] for Mario to collect.

-*Phantamanta was inspired from the ending of the horror novel ''[[wikipedia:The Shining (novel)|The Shining]]'': "a ghostly manta shape, floating away over the hotel. It was paper thin, like a shadow, and then broke into smaller forms before turning into smoke and drifting away.".
