Man, I really love the Wind Waker Ganondorf fight. It feels different from other fights in the series in the sense that you aren't fighting to save a kingdom or the princess. Sure, Link went in that tower to get Tetra back and stop Ganondorf, but when the fight happens, that isn't why they are fighting anymore.

Tetra is already there with Link, and Ganondorf had already lost; Daphnes stole his wish. Ganondorf has lost everything, and now the only thing he desires is to take Link and Tetra down with him as the hope for the future he wanted was given to them.

A fight you go into expecting to be one to save a friend and stop the villain became nothing more than a battle of survival. The waters of the great sea are crashing down as it is to kill or be killed.

Throughout the whole journey, Link and Tetra both struggled against Ganondorf. The first visit to the forsaken fortress he throws Link into the sea to drown. The second time, he knocks Link down and is about to strike him down with his blade, Tetra just barely coming in to save Link on time, and even then, they're both not strong enough. Finally, in Ganon's tower, after going through Ganondorf's trials without even getting a chance to fight him, this man straight up beats this small child and steals his triforce. Every confrontation with this man has gone wrong, and yet it's now or ever because if they lose, they will die, and no one is there to save them this time.

The battle theme is intense. It really is two very small children fighting this huge man, but just as they're the hope of the future every once in a while, the great seas theme will play as if there is a gleam of hope. That they can make it out alive.

However, even then when they do win, it isn't a triumphant one. Anytime Link has beaten a boss in the game, he is overjoyed and ecstatic. He is jumping up and down as he slayed the monster. He won.

Yet for Ganondorf, this is his reaction for killing a man.

He looks to be in disbelief, frightened even. Whatever he is feeling, it sure isn't a good one. How could he feel good about this? One thing is for sure is that he is exhausted, and he almost passes out then and there, with Tetra needing to catch him.

I just love everything about this fight. From the music and setting to the aftermath and why you're fighting him. You're not fighting to win or save the day. You're simply fighting to live.

#wind waker #the legend of zelda #loz ww #zelda #ganondorf #toon link #loz #listening to Ganondorf's theme once today was enough to make me want to go on a whole rant #if rant is the right word idk lol #every game you fight to live in a sense #i just like how in this one in that point in the game that is the only reason you're fighting #refusing to call tetra “zelda” she doesnt like that name so I'd never 💪

Demise and ghirahim remind me of rose quartz and pearl from Steven universe

DO IT FOR HIM…..

#I cannot disagree anon #there are a couple.. themes that rose/pearl gets into that I don’t think fit them and I would not like to explore with ghirademi but #the vibes are simply immaculate #I don’t know if I could explain what I mean. my brain is fried. but I hope you all understand #the legend of zelda #skyward sword #ghirahim #ghirademi #demise #crossover #Steven universe #also I’m so sorry to the su tag for putting this bullshit on your feed but hi #I must tag appropriately #ask #anon

thinking about loz and getting emotional because like. this all started because there was a boy in the sky who lost his childhood best friend and was willing to do whatever it took to get her back. and now, over tens of thousands of years and multiple timelines later, she’s still falling from the sky and he’s still chasing her. when he wakes up and remembers nothing, he still chases her voice. and when he remembers everything and she’s falling again, he finally catches her

#loz #totk #totk spoilers #zelink #zelda casually being the driving force of not only the narrative but also the player character’s motivation we love to see it! #sksw #i cant do thissss sksw is everything to me #for me personally this isn’t even about shipping. it’s about the narratives the themes the motifs the cyclical storytelling the dynamics- #between characters

Nintendo owned a huge chunk of Antarctica, and built a Legend of Zelda theme park on it. The theme park was just a mall, with no Legend of Zelda stuff in it.

so im not sure if anyones interested, but, i went through quite a bunch of totk critiques by people who were also very disappointed with it and thought id share my favorite videos i found (granted, i only really wachted those that youtube recommened and its mostly .. white men... things like the orientalism problem are not mentioned at all for example, maybe ill update this post if i find any more diverse voices)

i dont agree with every single point and also dont know most of the channels (aside from the big zelda theory guys) so i judged solely by what they mentioned in those videos and the quality of it (like the audio .. bc i cant listen to bad audio)

in no particular order, also they talk about or use footage of the literal ending stuff so if you arent done with the game yet, better leave these for now

(the following one is a podcast thing by multiple zelda theory guys, there some stuff you can skip at the start thats just kidna random things, but the video is marked with chapters)

(theres some mention of some things not making sense, like the sonau only being two, and ithink thats kinda bc the english translation was weirdly vague about that, in the german version its much more directly said that they all died out and only rauru and mineru were left of them;

also mentions of how unfitting it is to call the enigma stones "secret"stones in english might come from a similar thing; in german they where called "Mysterienstein" which would be translated as mystic/mysterious/enigma- stone

just wanted to mention that since the vast majority are gonna play it in english only and the stuff online is also dominated by english)

#ganondoodles talks #zelda #totk #ganondoodles rants #not really #but it kinda fits in the theme #some things are a lil too complainy for complainings sake #but overall those are the ones i felt spoke about alot of the broader problems #Youtube #also i dont ... like the english translations of these games #and im not a fan of the english voice acting either tbh #idk whats with zelda in particular #and i dont want to shit on translators #but man #some weird translation choices have done active damage in the whoe lore department #plus its jsut kinda .. weird and unecessary at times #why call it gloom?? miasma sound way more connected to malice and actually menacing #secret stones??? why?? mystic or engima is right there plus its confusing bc they .. are not secret at all?? #makes stuff complicated too bc im using the words i know but in english almost every name is totally different #why not ... keep the names of the og japanese?? #i know german is guilty of changing stuff too #but my point stands

"Sage—! No.... no, please."

"... Starlight, wake up. You're having another nightmare."

"I... L-Link, Sage, you're... you are you. Thank the Goddess."

Fuck the Goddess. "Another nightmare?" If Hylia truly cared for you then why would she torture us both? Why would she give you so called 'prophetic' dreams that may never come true?

"Y-You were covered in malice. There was blood everywhere and Ganondorf was dead!"

"Hmm...? Why is Ganondorf being dead... a bad thing?"

"The Gloom hands were listening to you. You weren't human anymore. Y-You were—"

"A monster?" Darling, I'm already a monster, but I'm your monster. Your Goddess made me a monster. I haven't been man since I first was awoken to save Zelda.

"Standing over the dead bodies of the Chain. Y-You were kissing me. They were all dead, Sage! Dead. What i-if it was more than a nightmare? What if that will happen? The Chain has done nothing but help us, Wild especially."

Wild? The man that is nothing more than a shell? He doesn't even talk! He's a weaker version of I and yet you give him so much attention. Is he better than me? Do you love him more?

"You worry a lot, little priest(ess)."

That sounds like a dream. The Chain has been nothing more than a distraction since they first appeared here. Taking you away from me. Helping you. Protecting you. Loving you. That's my job.

"I am not going anywhere. Come watch the stars with me. The ones that you fell from." My starlight. My angel. My god(dess).

"T-The Gloom hands. The others."

"You can see them right there. They're sleeping. And as for the Gloom hands... if I could control them... that'd make my job a lot easier."

"O-Okay, you're right, Sage. You're always right."

Yes, I am. If you only listened about us joining this stupid Chain. I could have you all to myself, but no. You wanted other Links who could help me. You're too sweet for your own good.

"How are you feeling? Being the hero and all."

"I feel like I kind of want to eat a rock right now." and slaughter all of your worst enemies.

I adore that Nintendo went, "hey, this song from Wind Waker? The Molgera theme? What if we took that and made it serve more cunt than it already did."

#totk #the molgera theme was already one of my top fave zelda songs #when i heard colgeras theme i was straight up pissing shitting sobbing crying #it gives me the goose bumps #just everything about it #its got it all #the molgera theme the attack on vah medo augh
