Banzai Bill (Japanese: マグナムキラー, Magunamu Kirā, Magnum Killer) is a character/weapon that is part of the Mushroom Kingdom.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

The Banzai Bill trophy from Melee.

In the stage Princess Peach's Castle, Banzai Bill appears from the sky and starts flying towards the castle. Banzai Bill will then land into the castle. The location where Banzai Bill lands is random. Banzai Bill will then start to flash which indicates that it is about to explode. When Banzai Bill explodes, any character in the blast radius will take heavy damage and extreme knockback. Banzai Bill's explosion usually results in a One-hit KO. However, the last hit of the explosion (without taking multiple hits) is avoidable by Di'ing at 0%. Any character who makes contact with Banzai Bill before it explodes will take damage and light knockback.

Banzai Bills also appear occasionally in the background of the stage Yoshi's Island with their original 2D appearance.

Trophy Description

Bullet Bills are shot out of cannons and fly on straight paths. In great numbers they're a nightmare; while Mario can stop most with a single jump, the giant one, Banzai Bill, is much tougher to avoid. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, only Banzai Bills can be seen. They burrow into Princess Peach's castle and then detonate with immense power.

In some versions of Melee, the Banzai Bill trophy is replaced by the Bullet Bill trophy, and where it says "only Banzai Bills can be seen", it says large Bullet Bills can be seen.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Banzai Bill appears in the background of Yoshi's Island, like in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
