'''Simirror''' is a relatively obscure enemy from the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. Simirror resembles a small wizard with thick hat and robes completely obscuring its body. It attacks by throwing mirror-like projectiles at Kirby, and can also create mirror images of itself. When hit, but not defeated, it will phase out of sight, and reappear somewhere else, much like [[Kabu]] sometimes does. It grants [[Kirby]] the [[Mirror]] [[Copy Ability|ability]] when swallowed. | '''Simirror''' is a relatively obscure [[enemy]] from the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]].

Simirror's name is a pun on the words "similar" and "mirror," referencing how mirrors create reflections. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Simirror resembles [[zeldawiki:Wizzrobe|Wizzrobe]], an enemy of [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]] in appearance and the use of magical energy attacks. | |||
*On the box art for ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', Simirror at the bottom-left corner is blocked by the game rating icon: [[wikipedia:Computer Entertainment Rating Organization|CERO]] (Japan), [[wikipedia:Entertainment Software Rating Board|ESRB]] (North America), [[wikipedia:Pan European Game Information|PEGI]] (Europe), [[wikipedia:Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle|USK]] (Germany) or [[wikipedia:Australian Classification Board|ACB]] (Australia). Simirror avoids this fate on the Korean box art, which has the [[wikipedia:Game Rating and Administration Committee|GRAC]] icon placed at the top-right corner. | |||
**This has become a running joke with Japanese ''Kirby'' fans, called [https://dic.pixiv.net/a/%E3%82%B7%E3%83%9F%E3%83%A9%E7%A5%AD%E3%82%8A "Simirror CERO A"]. It has even been officially referenced through a [[:File:Kirby Art and Style Collection Yuki Endo.png|developer drawing]] within ''[[Kirby Art & Style Collection]]''. | |||
