friendly reminder that, from zelda's perspective, she had just accepted the utter annihilation of her consciousness and self for all of eternity. she cries out for link in her last moments of lucidity... and then she immediately wakes up and link is there like 'hey you good?'

the reason zelink is so good is because link is the sole wielder of a legendary sword and he fells ancient beasts in his spare time but he is utterly incapable of saying 'no' to his zelda. he ate a FROG for her

absolutely bizarre of nintendo to drop in twilight princess AND botw "by the way link is indeed capable of talking. he just has chosen to be silent for the entire 100,000 year long zelda timeline because he felt like it."

"zelda kicked link out!"
link's house was filled with ghosts and she made it into a home.
"there's only one bed!"
...that link can sleep in. no other npc bed in the game can be slept in. its THEIR bed.
"there's no proof that they live together!"
they are canonically inseperable.

botw has persisted in the mind of zelda fans for years. yet not a few months after totk's release, i've seen fans losing zelda as their primary interest. there is a correlation there i think. totk simply did not deliver what was expected as 'the sequel to breath of the wild.'

a HUGE appeal in zelink's "first" meeting in each game is zelda being aware of the reincarnation cycle and link is not
zelda: what a curious surge of affection! this must be my soulmate, the 'courage' to my 'wisdom!'

i feel that a pivotal part of zelda's character is that her deepest darkest desire is to be able to choose link above responsibility. to have flowers in her hair instead of a crown

because at this point link's "knightly duties" consist of giving zelda the bigger half of the cookie and finding cool rocks for her.

zelink is great because this scene can either be interpreted as:
"i'm relieved my reincarnated lover recognizes me"
or
"the new guy is just as goofy as he looks. i love him"

i love this one because it furthers my delusion (headcanon) that link still has forest-child energy, hence why fairies/animals/spirits flock to him

my actual STEAMING hot zelda take is that i prefer the gorons in twilight princess and skyward sword to that of botw/totk
maybe its the cell-shaded style, but the older design definitely look less fleshy and more. rocky i guess

removing links motive by editing out his explicitly romantic love for zelda is a poor move, but... whatever, you still get the gist
but removing... the villain's motive... wh... why.... why...
Finding out that the English translation of TotK is the reason why Ganondorf doesn't have a clear motive through me through a loop
In the original Japanese script, Ganondorf believes that the Zonai brought about weaknesses with their rule, using technology to fight

they recognize each others souls after so many lifetimes. when link/zelda meet their first reaction is never "who are you" but "where have i seen you before?"
but both of them go "no that's impossible, i must be mistaken." and introduce themselves again like strangers. how silly

'link's lack of expression was a serious flaw in botw's presentation' and 'link's stoic behavior is to be expected considering his trauma' are statements that can and should coexist!
the problem is link doesn't come off as stoic/troubled. he comes off as completely uninterested.

zelink are doomed by the narrative because. their doom IS the narrative, but revali gets a special mention because not only did NOTHING ever come of his affection for mipha, i dont think anyone even knows about it other than him. he took it to the grave huh
revali smiling because mipha was tense is actually so sweet (idk if it shows with bad quality)
