Girubokku is the Japanese name for an otherwise unnamed floating eye enemy from The Adventure of Link.
These enemies greatly resemble Moas in being giant floating eyeballs; however, they do not appear to be ghosts, and they behave rather differently, traveling around the screen for a short distance before opening their single great eye, which is Link's only opening to attack. They gradually close in on Link and attempt to surround him, shutting their eyes to render themselves invincible. Also unlike Moa, Girubokku are always visible (whereas some Moas require the Cross to be visible) and they never appear in graveyards.
Trivia
- Girubokku may possibly be related to Patra or Digdogger, and share similarities with both enemies.
- Their name evokes the Japanese onomatopoeia giro, meaning to stare at something, and possibly boketto, meaning to gaze vacantly.
