First appearance Super Mario Bros. Wonder (2023)

Anglefish are enemies that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Their first appearance is in The Anglefish Trial: Ready, Aim, Fly! in Shining Falls. Being fish, they are in water, but they will jump out in an angle towards a player if approached. They will then land back in the water. Their jumping angle varies depending on where the player is, hinted at their bright blue glow, forming an arrow. They can be stomped on while they attack. Their name is a pun on "angle" and "angelfish", which are also similar in shape.
