Princess Daisy (Japanese: デイジー姫, Hepburn: Deijī-hime) is a princess character in the Mario franchise. She debuted in the 1989 Game Boy launch game Super Mario Land as the ruler of Sarasaland, where she was given the role of damsel in distress for Mario to rescue. The game’s official manual described the character as an “energetic tomboy,” a personality that would be defined through vocal performances and unique animations in later titles. Daisy has been presented as Luigi's love interest, paralleling the relationship between Mario and Princess Peach. Since her appearance in Mario Tennis, she has been a staple playable character in Mario spin-off games, including Mario Party and Mario Kart. She also appears as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Daisy was primarily voiced by American voice actress Deanna Mustard from 2003 to 2022, and was succeeded by Giselle Fernandez starting with Super Mario Bros. Wonder. She is portrayed by Samantha Mathis in the live-action Super Mario Bros. film.
