Arrghus

is a recurring Series: in. It is typically seen as a large, one-eyed jellyfish that is usually surrounded by miniature polyps called NaN Arrgis.

In, ALttP: is the ALttP: of the ALttP:, where it is the guardian of the second ALttP:. ALttP: appears densely surrounded by multiple NaN Arrgis. These NaN Arrgis and the creature's ability to float make it invulnerable to normal attacks. Its method of attack is to send the NaN Arrgis swirling outwards. The NaN Arrgis must be pulled away using the ALttP: and then defeated with the ALttP:. When all of the NaN Arrgis are gone, ALttP: launches itself into the air and attempts to crash straight down upon ALttP:, then speeds across the shallow water of the room. It will also shoot needle-thin lasers at the ground, which will create huge explosions, throwing columns of water into the air. In this state, it is unprotected and can be attacked with ALttP:'s ALttP: or other weapons. After each hit, it attempts to crush ALttP: from above again, or shoots more lasers at him. After its destruction, it leaves behind a ALttP: and ALttP: is presented with the second ALttP: in which one of the NaN Maidens is imprisoned.

In the Game Boy Advance version of, an orange ALttP: is the guardian of the green ALttP: shard in the ALttP:. Instead of NaN Arrgis, ALttP: is surrounded NaN Baris, which will sometimes shock ALttP: when he pulls them away from their host. This ALttP: is also stronger and faster. Once the NaN Baris are removed, it is able to both change direction while skating around, as well as summon swarms of NaN Kyamerons.

In, an ALBW: is the ALBW: of the ALBW:, where it protects the ALBW: of the ALBW: ALBW:. ALBW: is fought much the same way as in, as ALBW: must pull off the NaN Arrgis from its body using the ALBW: and defeat them one-by-one. As before, ALBW: will also occasionally send the NaN Arrgis diving down towards ALBW: in attack. After defeating all the NaN Arrgis, ALBW:'s eye will open and it will attempt to crash down onto ALBW:, as well as attempt to shoot streams of laser beams that boil the water beneath ALBW:. It can be attacked by any weapon when it lands. After it is defeated, it will leave behind a ALBW: as well as the ALBW: holding ALBW:.

Another ALBW:, colored yellow and blue, appears as a ALBW: in ALBW:.

In, TFH: appears as the boss of the TFH: Level. It appears as a watery, blue jellyfish surrounded by eyeballs protected in water barriers. When the TFH: arrive, eight eyeballs will emerge from the pool in the center of the room. These eyes will attempt to dive at the TFH:, and will alternate between submerging and surfacing. The submerged eyeballs can be resurfaced with a blast of water from the TFH:, which will also stun them. They can also be stunned with the TFH: while diving towards the Links. The surface eyes can be pulled apart with the TFH:. Once stunned or pulled away, they can be attacked with the TFH: before trying to reunite with their group. Once all the eyes are defeated, the pool will drain as TFH: reveals itself.

TFH: will float around the room while releasing several of its red eyes at the TFH: at once. As it is floating too high for the TFH: to pull off its eyes from the floor, the TFH: must raise themselves either by using the TFH:'s water pillars or by forming a TFH:, although the TFH: is recommended as it is much faster. Once all of its eyes are defeated, TFH: will open its real eye and commence its attack by firing blasts of ink around it. If any of the TFH: are caught in its attack, they will be covered in ink and will be temporarily unable to use their item. The TFH: must fight it by creating pillars of water with the TFH:, then aim the TFH: at its eye when it is open. This will stun TFH: and allow the TFH: to strike back. After taking enough damage, TFH: will be defeated.

(Ishinomori)
A creature resembling Arrghus is featured in Chapter 9 of the. Fought in the Swamp Palace similarly to the game, the monster is shown as a bright red jellyfish that attacks with tentacles, but no eyeballs are shown. In the comic, as Link makes his way to the imprisoned Maiden, a large, tentacled monster attacks him. He thrusts the Master Sword into the monster and defeats the creature, which spits out Link from inside and gives him a chance to destroy the floating Crystal where the Maiden is imprisoned.
