First appearance Wrecking Crew '98 (1998)

Kanbank[1] is an enemy found in Wrecking Crew '98. It consists of a sign of Bowser that is six panels wide and more than six panels tall, hence its name, which derives from the Japanese word「看板」(kanban), which means "signboard". The message at the bottom of the sign says「安全第一」(anzen dai'ichi), which means "safety first".

It is the most dangerous enemy of them all, as it can immediately end the game of the opponent of the player that summoned it. It appears in combos of at least nine Panels of any color, making it difficult to summon.
