| ||||||||
Ozomashii[Japanese title] is a spectral dragon-likemonster that appears in theKirby: Right Back at Ya! episodeA Sunsational Puzzle. It is presented as responsible for a hole in the ozone layer aboveDream Land which is letting in dangerous amounts of ultraviolet radiation. After discovering its existence,Kirby is sent to deal with the monster on hisWarp Star, first attempting to fight it with theJetCopy Ability, but later defeating it with theBomb ability.
Characteristics[edit]
Ozomashii is a wispy ghost-like dragon-shaped being which seems to be made of ultraviolet light and resides within the ozone hole above Dream Land. It is ethereal in nature, and can re-congeal when damaged if given enough time. It attacks by shooting rays of deadly UV radiation from its mouth.
It is not clearly explained inA Sunsational Puzzle how Ozomashii formed or what exactly its nature is, asProfessor Curio explains the main source of the ozone hole to be theCFC gases emitting from the air conditioner units sold to them byNight Mare Enterprises.
Role in A Sunsational Puzzle[edit]
- Main article:A Sunsational Puzzle
Ozomashii appears from the ozone hole above Dream Land in the episodeA Sunsational Puzzle. Kirby endeavors to battle this creature high in the sky on hisWarp Star, but can initially do little but try to dodge its attacks. To help him,Tiff andTuff toss Kirby the gas canister from their hot air balloon to give him theJet Copy Ability. However, Kirby is not able to make much progress against Ozomashii with this ability, as he punches through it at one point but this hole is quickly healed. Eventually, Kirby is given theBomb ability inadvertently byKing Dedede who was trying to blast Kirby out of the sky using an explosive cannonball. Using this ability, Kirby is able to blast Ozomashii with several bombs at once which is enough to cause it to disintegrate, patching up the ozone hole in the process.
