{{About|the boss from [[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]|Nruff as a common enemy|[[Nruff]]}}
[[File:KDL2 Nruff and Nelly sprite.png]]
'''Nruff and Nelly''' (also referred to as '''Nruff & Nelly''') are the bosses of [[Big Forest]] in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]'', appearing in [[Big Forest - Stage 4|Stage 4]]. Nruff is the main enemy, having the appearance of a large woolly boar with distended ears, tusks and a monochrome brown coat. Nelly is a smaller boar who looks largely the same, but has its ears tucked in and has white stripes across its back. Several Nellys accompany Nruff in their boss fight, and will keep reappearing until Nruff is defeated.

==Game appearances==
===''Kirby's Dream Land 2''===
[[File:KDL2 Nruff and Nelly Fight 1.png|thumb|left|A portion of the Nruff and Nelly fight in ''Kirby's Dream Land 2''.]]
In a similar manner to [[Lololo & Lalala]] and even more-so [[Pon & Con]], Nruff and its Nellys are fought in a room with three ledges, randomly spawning on one of the latter either from the left or right side of the screen and proceeding to the opposite side. Unlike Lololo & Lalala, Nruff will sometimes jump in order to switch ledges, as well as stopping on occasion to throw bombs at [[Kirby]]. As Nruff {{-}} like other bosses {{-}} cannot be inhaled, the pink hero must use the smaller Nellys, which are worth 200 points when destroyed or 100 when inhaled, for ammunition or attack it with a Copy Ability in order to reduce its health.

Once half of its health is gone, Nruff's paths will become less predictable and its bomb-throwing attacks more frequent. It will also attempt to confuse Kirby on occasion. Once Nruff is defeated, Kirby is awarded 15000 points and gains access to [[Ripple Field (Kirby's Dream Land 2)|Ripple Field]].

{{main|Bonus Chance}}
After completing the boss fight, Kirby can re-enter the stage to participate in a game with the Nellys instead of re-fighting them. In this game, Kirby must collect [[Point Star|small stars]] that move out of the holes while avoiding the Nellys.

===''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''===
In ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', Nruff & Nelly appear as a randomly-appearing [[Keychain]], depicting their sprites from ''Kirby's Dream Land 2''.

===''Kirby's Dream Buffet''===
In ''[[Kirby's Dream Buffet]]'', Nruff & Nelly appear on a [[Character Treat]], which depicts their sprites from ''Kirby's Dream Land 2''.

==In ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!''==

Nruff and Nelly make a minor appearance in ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]''. Nruff and Nelly live in the [[Eastern Forest]], deep within [[Acore|Acore's]] roots. They first appear in a nature montage in the episode [[Beware: Whispy Woods!]], though they play no role in the plot, and do not interact with the other characters.

Nruff and Nelly make a more substantial appearance in the episode [[War of the Woods]], where they help the other animals defend Acore from [[King Dedede (anime)|King Dedede]] and the storm that threatens to topple Acore over. Unlike some of the other animals, they do not speak. They attack their opponents by charging at them and knocking them away.

Nruff and Nelly make a few other minor appearances in the show, though they are seldom seen outside of the woods.

==Trivia==
*On the official [[Kirby JP Twitter]] feed, [[:File:Twitter commemorative - Mother's Day.jpg|an illustration]] was posted for Mother's Day which features Nruff and Nelly in the upper-left corner. The image strongly implies that Nruff is the mother of the Nellys.
