First appearance Super Mario Bros. Wonder (2023)

Anglefish are blue triangular fish enemies that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Their first appearance is in The Anglefish Trial: Ready, Aim, Fly! in Shining Falls. If approached by a player, they will jump toward them at an angle towards a player. 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.

In a Wonder Effect, Anglefish instead jump and fly in set directions, sometimes spawning off-screen.
