Granny

, also known as Anju's Grandmother, is a recurring character in.

In, Granny owns the Potion Shop that is located in the back of Kakariko Village. She is wife of the Master Craftsman and mother of the Cucco Lady and the Master Craftsman's Son.

When Link is a child, Granny's Potion Shop is only accessible by flying into its yard with a Cucco. The Shop, however, is closed and a message is on the door letting him know that Granny is out in the field collecting herbs for her Potions. Seven years in the future, Link is able to gain access to her shop by either using the Hookshot from the Kakariko Windmill, or the back door of the Medicine Shop.

After Link delivers Cojiro to the her son in the Lost Woods, he asks him to deliver an Odd Mushroom to Granny. Upon showing the Odd Mushroom to Granny, she calls him a "bum" for going into the forest, and asks Link that if he sees "that fool", to give him the Odd Potion. However, she says the Potion will not work on a monster, possibly hinting at her son's fate as a Stalfos.

The Lake Scientist, who lives in the Lakeside Laboratory, mentions that she is a student of his.

In, Anju's Grandmother is Granny's Terminan counterpart. Anju's Grandmother lives in the lower bedroom of the Stock Pot Inn in Clock Town. While confined to her wheelchair, she serves as a storyteller. Her stories are unbearably long and the listener will often fall asleep in the middle of them. Granny will ask questions related to the story read. These can be answered correctly by wearing the All-Night Mask, allowing Link to stay awake and to answer her questions. If he answers the questions correctly, he will receive a Piece of Heart for each story told. She will not read any stories on the Final Day.

The first story that Anju's Grandmother reads, about the Carnival of Time, is the shorter of the two and takes two hours to tell. At the end, Anju's Grandmother will ask when the Clock Tower opens. Link must answer "On the eve of the carnival" to receive a Piece of Heart. The second story, about the Four Giants, will take all of the time between when the story begins and the next morning. Thus, if the story begins at 6 AM, it will not end until 6 AM the next day. After listening to the story with the All-Night Mask, Anju's Grandmother will ask what the people do to call the Four Giants. Link must answer "I dunno" to receive another Piece of Heart.

Anju's Grandmother also appears to be losing her memory, as she often refers to her granddaughter Anju and Link by the name of Tortus, her deceased son and Anju's father. Her diary seems to indicate, however, that she feigns senility to get out of eating Anju's poorly cooked meals. She writes about a plan to get by without eating, and can be seen enacting that plan when Anju brings her lunch on the first day.

On the Night of the Final Day, she flees to Romani Ranch with Anju and her daughter-in-law.

In the, Anju's Grandmother is depicted much the same as she is in the game, with yet another hint that she may be faking her senility. This is ignored by Anju's Mother, who swiftly forces her out the door as they make their way to Romani Ranch.
