Zunari
Zunari is a character in The Wind Waker.[3]
Biography
Pet Phrase: "Dear me!"
Even on the hottest day of summer, Zunari can be found in his shop, wearing the beloved hood that his mother made for him. He keeps a great treasure in his safe there.
On a side note, he turns 40 this year and is now recruiting for a wife.
Zunari used to live on a cold island, but he eventually moved to Windfall Island,[4] where he set up a stall in the hopes of running a prosperous business.[5] At first, he lacks the necessary funds, with his only stocked item being the Sail that he used to navigate from his homeland to Windfall.[6] However, when Link helps him by purchasing his Sail,[7] he begins to try and sell things for an organization whose goal is putting flowers all over the town. Zunari is also a member of the Joyous Volunteer Association.
Zunari's only possession is the coat that he always wears, crafted by his mother.[8] Nonetheless, his safe may contain something of value, as Mila tries to break into it at night time. During the Island Trading Sequence, if Link makes a Merchant's Oath with the three Goron Wandering Merchants situated on Mother & Child Isles, Greatfish Isle, and Bomb Island, Zunari will gift him with the Magic Armor. Zunari can also be found running the nightly Windfall Auction at the Auction House.
In The Wind Waker HD, when first spoken to, Zunari will request that Link free Tingle from the Jail before he will sell him the Sail. He claims that Tingle had originally traveled with him to Windfall but was arrested upon reaching the island for his suspicious looks.[9] Freeing Tingle causes Zunari to lower the price of the Sail from the previously considered 200 Rupees to only 80 Rupees,[10] as in the original game.
Trivia
- Zunari wears a coat similar to those of the Anouki seen in Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks.
Nomenclature
Zunari is a corruption of his Japanese name, スズナリ (Suzunari), which likely comes from the word 鈴生り (Suzunari), an adjectival noun used to describe people forming a cluster. It may be an allusion to the future success of his business. The word originally meant fruits being grown in clusters, like a kagura suzu.

The little shop master on Windfall Island apparently got his hands on a truly amazing treasure. He calls it Magic Armor or something like that. It's a pretty cool magical relic, from what I've heard. If you want him to give it to you, try staring deep into his eyes and winning him over with flattery, fry! Ahhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! And that's all the info I've got to offer! If you want to hear it again, you'll have to throw some more bait on the water for me! Sorry, but that's my policy, fry! I can't go fighting evil on an empty stomach, you know! And with that...I'm off!

I came across cursed seas from a land far away...a land where the blizzards blow violently...heading for this town called Windfall.
— Zunari (The Wind Waker) - ↑
I wish to open a business here in this town, so I am in desperate need of finances!
— Zunari (The Wind Waker) - ↑
...Could you not purchase that from me? It is my one and only heirloom from home.
— Zunari (The Wind Waker) - ↑
Yes, yes, yes! Thank you very much, indeed! I have received precisely 80 Rupees for it. I can use these funds to finance my new business! Oh, dear me, what a happy day!
— Zunari (The Wind Waker) - ↑
Oh, dear me... Sadly, I have nothing else I could possibly sell you. I have naught but my hoodie coat and it is a keepsake from my dear, dear mother!

There was one other person with me, yes there was... But, I dare say, he was immediately arrested based on his somewhat suspicious looks and thrown right into jail. Yes, just locked up somewhere on this island.
— Zunari (The Wind Waker HD) - ↑
I'd really like to as 200 Rupees for it, but as a favor for rescuing my friend, perhaps we may strike a deal... How does...80 Rupees sound?
