The Legend Of Zelda: 10 Most Disappointing Boss Battles
6. Angler Fish - Link's Awakening
That's right. We have yet another water-based boss. (Seriously, why does Legend of Zelda have so many disappointing sea-themed bosses?)
As the player reaches the final room of Angler's Tunnel in Link's Awakening, you will come across a humongous angler fish called... Angler Fish. (They couldn't even come up with a name?)
He may look vicious but Angler Fish is the easiest boss in the entire franchise. It is possible to defeat this aquatic monster in less than ten seconds. Not only can you kill Angler Fish before he has time to attack, some players don't know what his attacks are because they beat him before he does anything!
Does he even have an attack? Does he bite you? Does he summon fish? What does he do? It's hard to say since he's chop suey moments after he appears.
Thankfully, Angler Fish provides a bit more of a challenge in the Nintendo Switch remake. This incarnation can smash into the walls, cave in the ceiling, and zoom around like a torpedo. Considering you can kill him in less than a minute, this incarnation of the boss is still way too easy.
