'''Ghirahim''' ({{ja|ギラヒム|Girahimu}}, ''Ghirahim'') is a character from ''The Legend of Zelda'' series who debuted as the one of the two main antagonists of ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword}}''  and [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD|its HD remake]], the other one being his master, {{s|zeldawiki|Demise}}.

==Origin==
[[File:Ghirahim-Origin.png|thumb|left|Link and Ghirahim's first battle from ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword''.]]
Ghirahim first appeared in ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword''. A demon befitting his self-proclaimed title of "Demon Lord", Ghirahim is rather brisk and flamboyant, but these emotions quickly become replaced with more negative ones like anger, instability, irritation and remorselessness when his plans do not go accordingly. He wields powerful forms of dark magic, embellished with rhombuses that are similar to the ones on his clothing, capable of teleportation, summoning monsters and even unleashing his true potential.

When [[Link]] first meets him early in his quest to find [[Zelda]] after she falls from [[Skyloft]] by a tornado, it is revealed that Ghirahim was the one who stirred up the tornado to kidnap her. Link valiantly beats him, but Ghirahim retreats as he continues to pursue her.

Throughout the game, he causes many problems for Link, Zelda and {{s|zeldawiki|Impa}} by taunting and harassing them. The reason for this is eventually explained; Zelda is the physical reincarnation of the goddess {{s|zeldawiki|Hylia}} and Ghirahim was solely after Hylia's divine essence, it being the sole thing capable of reviving his master, the Demon King Demise. Near the end of the game, Link would successfully vanquish Demise with the [[Triforce]] in his time, but Ghirahim kidnaps Zelda and travels back in time via the last {{s|zeldawiki|Gate of Time}}, returning to a point [[zeldawiki:Hylia's_Realm|before]] Demise's vanquishment and successfully reviving him. Ghirahim is then revealed to be merely the spirit within Demise's sword, as Link's ally, {{s|zeldawiki|Fi}}, is to him. After Link defeats and seals away Demise permanently, Ghirahim's fate as of that point remains unclear.

Ghirahim uses attacks similar to facing him in the second phase of his first and second encounters, in which he uses darts and his signature rapier. These attacks are also used in his ''{{s|zeldawiki|Hyrule Warriors}}'' appearance.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
===As an [[Assist Trophy]]===
[[File:SSB4 - Ghirahim.jpg|thumb|left|SSB4 - Ghirahim.jpg|Ghirahim in {{forwiiu}}.]]
Ghirahim appears in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' as an [[Assist Trophy]]. He attacks fighters with both his sword and his knives, and traverses the stage primarily by teleporting. He can be flinched if he's attacked. If he is knocked off the stage, he can teleport back; attacks also cannot interrupt Ghirahim's attacks, and he can also reflect any [[projectile]]s thrown at him.

Anri Katsu reprises his role as Ghirahim, with his portrayals being re-purposed from ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword''.

===Trophy===
Ghirahim's trophy appears in both versions. In {{forwiiu}} it is part of the ''Skyward Sword Characters'' {{h1|Trophy Box|Skyward Sword Characters}}.

|image-wiiu=GhirahimTrophyWiiU.png
|desc-ntsc=Link encounters Ghirahim repeatedly during his adventure. Extremely confident, he encourages Link to use his title, Lord Ghirahim, when they first meet. Is he truly powerful, or does he use eloquent words to distract you and gain an advantage?
|desc-pal=No one has a higher opinion of Ghirahim than Ghirahim himself. You may call him Lord Ghirahim, by the way. Link is the thorn in this Demon Lord's otherwise flawless side, and though he might seem calm and collected, he'll start to lose his cool if he doesn't get his own way.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
===As an Assist Trophy===
Ghirahim reprises his role as an Assist Trophy in this game, functioning identically to how he did in ''Smash 4'', albeit KOing him earns a point. [[Training Mode]] describes his Assist Trophy as: ''Throws knives and slashes with a blade, closing in on opponents by dashing and warping.'' He cannot appear on [[Peach's Castle]].
