Origin[edit]

The Bunny Hood as it appeared inMajora's Mask.

The Bunny Hood debuted inThe Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as a collectiblemask. One of the side missions in the game requiredYoung Link to sell various masks to the citizens ofHyrule. Young Link found theRunning Man inHyrule Field and sold the Bunny Hood to him. In exchange, the running man paid him the maximum amount ofRupees that Young Link's wallet could hold. Once Young Link sold the Bunny Hood, he was able to borrow it from theHappy Mask Salesman at anytime. The Bunny Hood returns as a collectible mask inThe Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. In this game, Young Link can collect the Bunny Hood fromGrog. When wearing the Bunny Hood in this game, Young Link's speed and jumping distance increases, whereas it had no effect inOcarina of Time.^[1]

Don the Bunny Hood to improve your agility drastically, allowing you to jump great distances and move at high speed. The ears are a cute accessory: they're even adorable on characters they don't quite suit. The Bunny Hood was key in Majora's Mask, where it made Link move at one-and-a-half times his normal speed.

Bunny Hood

Headgear that hugely improves your jump and movement abilities. True to its name, the hood comes with a pair of cute, fuzzy ears. On the right characters, they're as cute as can be, but on the wrong ones, they're...scary. Of course, that adds to the item's charm. The sudden speed increase you get is responsible for more than a few self-destructs, so be careful.

Trivia[edit]

• Unlike bothOcarina of Time andMajora's Mask where the entire hood was shown on Link, only the Bunny Hood's ears appear on characters' heads when it is picked up.
• The Bunny Hood has a strange effect on size changes. By default, size changes will multiply certain stats (such as damage output, weight etc); however, some size changes (such as becoming small while in the pot onUltimate's version ofGarden of Hope), are programmed not to. When under the effect of such a size change, equipping a Bunny Hood will cause the stat multipliers to be applied anyway, and this will continue even if the Bunny Hood wears off.
• IfSonic wears a Bunny Hood on certain stages, he can actually outrun hazards that would result in a KO for anyone else due to their speed; one main example is the racetrack inBig Blue, where he can run on the track, to the point ofself-destructing off the right-hand blast line. This can also be done by Captain Falcon on some of the slower parts of the map, but it is harder to get him running.
  • The Bunny Hood can be combined with theSuperspicy Curry to make characters run even faster. This makes it easier for Sonic to outrun the cars on Big Blue.
• InUltimate, due to the changes to full hop mechanics, full hop heights are increased by a smaller factor than short hop and double jump heights.
• WhenMarth wears the Bunny Hood inMelee, hisneutral attack speed increases; this does not happen to any other character in the game.
• WhenMario,Diddy Kong andTerry wear the Bunny Hood and use a taunt that removes their hat, the ears stay on their hat instead of their head.
• The Bunny Hood does not affectYoshi's midair jump inMelee andBrawl, but it does inSSB4 andUltimate.
• The Bunny Hood doesn't increasecrawling speed.
• The Bunny Hood ignores most of the mobility modifiers made by a fighter's mechanics; this applies toDeep Breathing,Monado Arts,Limit Break,Acceleratle, andWinged Form. For an example, ifShulk is wearing the Bunny Hood while having the Shield Monado Art active, the mobility reductions caused by the art will not be applied, while still maintaining the art's increased defenses. Similarly, wearing the Bunny Hood cancels out the Jump Monado Art's buffs to Shulk'sjump height andair speed, while keeping the increased damage taken multiplier active.
  • Interestingly, the Bunny Hood does not cancel out thewalk speed increase made by Deep Breathing.
