Oho Jee

“You call me Oho Jee. But I no know why.”

—Oho Jee, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

The Oho Jees are natives that live on a small island in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. When spoken to, Oho Jees often use incorrect grammar and say mysterious things. There are two varieties on the main island: Red Oho Jee and Blue Oho Jee.

They are not enemies by nature and will not attack unprovoked. However if they are hurt by Firebrand/Thunderhand they will turn wild and face Mario and Luigi to a battle. The brothers have no choice but to beat them. Their only attack is spinning wildly at the brothers. Blue Oho Jee will spin fast while Red Oho Jee will spin slow. Red Oho Jees are healed by Firebrand and critically hurt by Thunderhand, while Blue Oho Jees are healed by Thunderhand and hurt by Firebrand.

The Oho Jees sometimes act strangely in battle. They may run away and (if the running fails) come back saying "I no believe!" (a reference to their species' name) or hum a song, which slightly heals the brothers. Also, if they are healed too much, they will blow up and the battle will end. After defeat they will lay on the ground seemingly dead only to jump back up and say they were just kidding and that they're fine. Other times however, when they jump back up they will say they have been reborn or they will yell at the brothers for taking their experience points.

All four types of Oho Jees.

Two smaller islands south of Oho Oasis house a Green Oho Jee and a Purple Oho Jee, both of which sport afros. According to a boombox at the west part of Oho Oasis by a Beanish scientist, one of the scientists was attacked by an Oho Jee, and was then transformed into one. However, Mario and Luigi do not get transformed when attacked.

Trivia

• The name of the species, the Oho Jees, is inspired by the phrase "Oh jeez".Template:Refneeded When pronounced singularly the word greatly resembles the phrase "Oh gee", a phrase signifying slight surprisement. The "Oho" part is a reference to the place they live, Oho Oasis.
