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 English name comes from "angle" and "fish", evoking the similar-shaped angelfish.

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