A '''Manhandla''' is a recurring boss enemy that has made multiple appearances in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' series. They often impede [[Link]]'s path in its numerous appearances, with the ability to spit fireballs and increasing its attack speed with each head destroyed. Their method of defeat differs in each game it appears in. The Japanese manual for ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda}}'' describes them as variants of [[Piranha Plant]]s.<ref>{{cite|quote=４方向に手を持つ大型のパックンフラワー。手が減るごとに速い動きになる。ややつよい攻撃力を持つ。(''A four-limbed, jumbo-sized Pakkun Flower.

In ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons}}'', Manhandla returns as the boss of the {{iw|zeldawiki|Ancient Ruins}}. Its attack pattern is very similar to its first appearance, but now Link can only damage a head with the {{iw|zeldawiki|Magical Boomerang}} when its mouth is open. When all its heads are destroyed, the stem will rapidly run around the room, and Link must expose the Manhandla's core with the Magical Boomerang, defeating it with his {{iw|zeldawiki|sword}}.

Manhandlas also appear in the spin-off game, ''{{iw|zeldawiki|Hyrule Warriors}}'', and its [[zeldawiki:Hyrule Warriors Legends|multiple]] [[zeldawiki:Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition|rereleases]]. It is a giant boss in multiple locations. Unlike previous games, Manhandlas are shown to exhibit a much greater repertoire of abilities, such as the ability to spit seeds and poison gas, and the ability to burrow underground. It also has a protective armor that renders it immune to most attacks. To defeat it, the player must use a boomerang to stun all of its heads while its armor is disabled. Doing so will expose its crystal core, which can be attacked to destroy the beast.

[[zeldawiki:Big Manhandla|A variant of the Manhandla]] appears as a boss in ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords}}'' and ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures}}''. In these games, the flowers are the colors of the four playable Links in the game, indicating who can damage it. In the former game, it appears as the boss of the {{iw|zeldawiki|Sea of Trees}} and is stuck in one place and has a variable amount of flowers which change colors, while in the latter game, Manhandla is a recurring miniboss in multiple locations, and has four flowers like the original - each in a different color - and it rotates as it moves.
