You forgot to mention the Yiga's obsession with bananas, which also connects to their name.
Matsuo Basho, the famous haiku master, spent some time living in the ninja village of Iga (which still exists and has ninja performances with well-trained actors), which is the namesake of the Yiga clan. His house there had a number of banana trees, which he valued greatly. These facts connect "Yiga" to "bananas" (but ultimately, it's for comedic effect).
It's worth mentioning bananas were *not* endemic to japan. They were a very rare exotic plant, imported by sailing traders. This further explains their perceived value and the literal banana treasure in the Yiga hideout.
It’s also possible that the Sheikah had/have the same obsession with bananas because the monk that you fight (I forgot his name ;-;) can be temporarily stalled/distracted by placing bananas on the battlefield.
@@lonedragonwolf1706 Yeah, monk Maz Koshia can be distracted by bananas. But their shrines an dungeons (the big robots) offer no indication that they liked them (there's no random naners in chests).
Also, if that were true, it would be an obsession that got lost over time. The NPCs in the Sheikah village don't react to bananas and have no banana treasure anywhere.
Maybe in BoTW2, if we can time travel, or see a cutscene of the old days, we might see an ancient Sheikah eating a banana? 🍌
@@samuraicupcake289 perhaps. It’s just a small thing I remember someone else pointing out to me and I found interesting.
If it’s just a thing for monk Maz Koshia (and possibly other past monks) then fair enough.
Fighting using sheikah energy makes you crave bananas.

This comment won the day! Sailor Mars ftw!
Yes!

*Payo*
HOLD ON A MINUTE! I can't be the only one that noticed how throughout all of the main Breath of the Wild trailers there was a major theme around the line "open your eyes". And now the first thing that we see in it's much darker squeal's trailer is Ganondorf, the (assumed) main antagonist of the game, opening his eyes towards our heroes Link and Zelda. Huh. Great parallel Nintendo!
I was gonna like until I saw you were at 64..... NINTENDO 64!
Hey, I can’t like your comment cuz you got 69 and I don’t wanna ruin that for you but I just wanted to let you know I liked this
@@championcoast1829 haha guess we are in the same boat!! LOL
I never even saw the botw 1 trailer so of course I did not notice it
:o
They are whoopin my ass every single time when I fight a Guardian but never asked myself what those symbols are...and this game is out since 2017
OMG you're so old
Bernardo Puppin ?
*Visible Demoness confusion*
Link noir I saw you in the skyward sword end credit song video by gilva sunner saying what you wanted for zelda switch
Damn people still struggle with guardians, man I became a guardian slayer on master mode, to me master mode was easier than normal mode, I've been farming lynels and guardians just for the fun of it, it's rare that a lynel will hit me, I always go for the lynel your supposed to kill at Zora's domain right at the start just so I can grab the lynel weapons, gives me a good head start, I'll then go to the castle to go grab a bunch of weapons and gear after grabbing Majora's mask, I'll then fight the skeletal boss (forgot the name lol it's late rn) to get the hylian shield, I'll then go grab 13 heart containers, I'll then go and grab a bunch of hearty durians that give you a lot of extra heart, then I'll go and do the divine beasts, then go to ganon. That's my strategy Everytime, but now that theres a glitch to duplicate heart containers and stamina vessels that makes it easier, I never go for the stamina vessels, turns out their absolutely useless, I got up everything without them, I always found a way around the stamina in the game, it's a pretty easy thing to do. Well unless you don't wanna use strategic thinking and planning and trial and error go grab the stamina vessels cuz it can be a bit tedious at times but for me thats where the fun is.
(Edit I grab the 13 hearts cuz of the master sword)
You’re the thing that’s keeping me going while we wait for BOTW2... I’m so impatient for this game
Between me and anyone who reads this Christmas 2021 is my guess. The game has been development since the end of champions ballad's so at Christmas 2021 it'll be in development for 4 years, I think. Also in that year the series will be celebrating her 35th anniversary. Then there's the switch pro thing if you're into that blah blah blah. But crown tundra will probably be flagship for Christmas, and breath of the wild 2 info this year at E3 and maybe more at the game awards.
@@matthewgriffin9344 I feel like you're right, tho could be summer as well.
Nintendo needs to release another trailer otherwise I'm gonna lose it. I can't wait for this game!!
Patienceeee
Me too
BoTW content is still being made, and I thought I was late to the party by starting my game this month. This is the greatest!
Edit: Thanks for the huge amount of positive responses on this comment! I love reading all your personal stories.
Edit 2: Still an overwhelming amount of positive responses! I hope you are all staying safe and enjoying BoTW during this ‘unprecedented vacation’.
Lucielle S. Everhart, don’t worry! Botw will always be relevant. Good luck on your adventures and good luck!
how do you record switch? elgato capture?
Myra X, Heyyy thank you! It’s been an absolute gem to play!
@@JCAspit small square button on left joycon, quick press for photo, hold down 3s for a 30s snippet of the last 30s of gameplay.
@@trevormetzgar7229 No I mean 30 minutes or something. not the last 30 seconds of gameplay i know how to do that
I really hope the Yiga turn up in BOTW2, they were one of my favorite parts of the first game and I wpuld love to see more of them as well as the Sheikah clan.
Me too. I hope they play a bigger part in the BOTW2 because I loved the idea of these "Evil Sheikah"
I think they are a perfect thing to add to the game. Need another villain other than Ganon. They’re super cool too!
Since some people were complaining about not enough bosses. Have Yiga master of diff3rent abilities.
You’re one of 5 people who actually think this lol
Yiga clan are ok but their spawn rate is horrendous when you’re exploring the Wild
The Latin characters for the table for the kuji in starting at 7:49 should be labeled "Zen Zai Retsu Jin Kai Sha Toh Pyo Rin". Japanese, when vertical, like in the table, is read right to left instead of left to right. So they are currently labeled backwards (except Kai since it's the middle).
Unless it's read counter clockwise
Well it is backwards compared to the chart, but it would still be read "Rin Pyo Sha Kai Jin Retsu Zai Zen". It is just converted to a western format for us to read.
Came to the comments to say this too. Just a slight mistake, but worth noting I think, especially since some of the kana are a little difficult to read.

Agreed with OP, except the part "Japanese, when vertical... " - should be horizontal.
Yayyyyyy!!!! The Yiga and Sheikah are so interesting, I love the lore and culture behind them
Me too, I love knowing everything about them! I got so excited when I saw the notification for this video!
Psu Choki, same!!! Gaijin Goomba did a great culture breakdown on them if you want to see more of them :)
@@myrax3198 I will watch that without a doubt ^^
They realy are
Beware the eye of the yiga... FOOL!
The first time I ran into a Yiga clan member, I was terrified because I had yet to learn any background on them. It was a huge jump scare! I just thought I would help a random traveler out and instead I got attacked by shapeshifting teleporters with scythes
If memory serves, Skyward Sword did mention how the Shiekah are close to the goddess Hylia, so perhaps all of the shiekah's spells were originally granted to them by Hylia herself.
The blue energy being from celestial Power would make sense because think of nayru's love from Ocarina of Time I have the same blue glow as the shields that the Sheika use
And the Red energy was similar to Malice and Gannon. Like Power. Like Din, one of the other Goddesses
And Green has been shown both in electricity (neon green yellow) ans the BOTW 2 trailer. Farore, Courage.
Also he does hand motions/signs before executing all 3 spells as well in oot.
In fact, the blade masters do a similar motion, leading me to believe it might be a more advanced, honed or an Earth varient of Din's Fire.
If anything the Shiekah are the ones who learned to time travel.
Demise realized how to cross dimensions--
Wait, wait, wait.
Space, Time, and Dimension....is that what it's all leading up to?
I think is safe to assume that if the princess Zelda have the blood of Hylia, the Sheika (her protectors) have some kind of blessing or something to help her and the kingdom. Whatever that is, could explain the magic
7:14 Ah, that might be the reason why the Mongols died in a tornado!
The Yiga footman can actually run faster than a horse, even when the horse has a head start. I learned that on mety333's channel. EDIT: This is the most likes i've ever gotten on a comment. Thanks for all the likes!
Which video?
@@SenketsuFi Sheikah vs yiga hyrule race.
@Alexander Hufnagel lol
I love mety333.
yep
1:27 the malevolent, enigmatic *bowser’s kingdom*
@phim q Are you okay?
@phim q r/whoosh
You misused whoosh, as he was saying that Zeltik used the Bowser’s Kingdom theme from Mario Odyssey.
And it also wasn’t a joke.
@@paulrance5445 who you talking too?
I think that Shiekah like Kogah actually use their technologies rather than magic,but they intergrate them in their bodies in such a way that it is indistinguishable from magic
I really hope the Yiga play as big a part in botw 2 as the divine beasts did in botw 1. We've never had a group of people so dedicated to allowing Ganon complete his goal. They're so cool and have such an interesting story.
Glad more people are talking about this!
Your series was actually a big inspiration when I began looking into how they fight!
I’ve only ever played a bit of ocarina of time and now completed breath of the wild. It’s so fascinating to see all these connections and all of this lore put into the Zelda games. Definitely the best series of games there is.
The video about the forgotten temple actually being the sealed temple from skyward sword really goes to show how much detail the devs put into their games
Has anyone noticed that the word meanings from the symbols when they meditate they have the same starts of the shrines
@@harrison4219 9:57 my parents and I used to joke and call it a Japanese dollar bill. I called it a Yiga dollar for their currency.
@Jack Wells it'd odd isn't it. No matter the video, these comments are always followed by someone mentioning a time period and the words "really worked" paired together. Almost like they're part of the same group. Hmm, must be coincidence.
Might I also add that they never even reply. They only type "@[name]" in regular text.
8:13 this graph should be read from right to left. The rightist is rin, seconded by pro. I think ofuda were not spawned from Sheikah and Yiga performing magic, but Sheikah and Yiga using them to perform magic. Ofuda is like pre-made one time use rune stone.
what im confused
Left to right
The paper talismans are most likely ofuda as there is already an example of an omamori in the game. Bolson (of Bolson's Construction) wears a red and yellow omamori around his neck. Thank you for your videos!
Loved the bowsers castle music that started playing when he started talking about the yiga clan, that was a nice surprise 😂
Not the same music
This is an interesting hot take. I wasn't aware of the cultural Japanese nine seals tidbit, so I definitely learned some good insight from that. I've already previously conjectured that the Sheikah's technological achievements were rooted from Hylia, based on the grounds that Impa states in Skyward Sword they were specifically chosen and selected as her guardians in an era where humans were not yet exposed to magic, as well as the fact that Dorian specifically mentions that the technology of the Sheikah had once been revered as "the technology of the gods".
Its actually a pretty stern parallel to how A Link to the Past posits that the Hylian's connection to the gods merits them the ability to use magic. This distinguished the Hylians as a prosperous race that propagated the foundation of Hyrule to much the same magnitude as to how Breath of the Wild discloses Sheikah history.
One last thing I'd like to add about Sheikah magic in relation to this topic is that the Hover Boots found in the Shadow Temple are likely a product of their abilities as well. In the first two phases of the battle against Maz Koshia, leading him off of the battle arena will result in him walking on thin air with projected visible contact per each step, which is similar to the functional effects of the Hover Boots especially when they are also described as "sacred feet" in Ocarina of Time.
The ability isn't exclusive to the Sheikah however as Wizzrobes are capable of performing this too, but it does seem all the more plausible that the boots are of Sheikah invention given their location.
Maz Koshia is such a fun boss fight, I think the first half where he’s a small boi is the best in the game. Basically every other boss is huge and you just lay into them, but Maz Koshia is fast and his clones take up hits. He has so many moves, I’m glad they give you the option to fight him as much as you want if you got back to the shrine of resurrection.
your intro give me goosebumps everytime.
Hamad Al Emadi it’s by Ruven Wegner, don’t remember which one exactly, but you should give a listen to some of their songs they’re pretty epic :). Edit. It was “The opening - BotW”
2:11 but what about the cloaked “garo” enemies in majoras mask. It seems they share a similar battle moveset to the yiga clan as well, disappearing and reappearing to surprise attack you along with dashing at you. Wielding small blades and wearing a cloak. Being found in the Ikana Canyon, similar to the ancient gerudo ruins where the yiga live. Their faces obscured by shadow and their skinny stature. Looming in random spots around the land similar to the yiga disguised as normal citizens around hyrule. Could this be the beginning of the sheikah rebellion? The beginning of the “Yiga” clan?
The current canon is that Termina isn't real. I personally dislike this and think they need to bring the masks back.
ProjectEchoshadow does it being a dream state that link is in or links death discredit it from being canon though?
@@spectral2316 it is canon, but nothing in that game matters to the rest of the canon
@@spectral2316 yes and no. Sure it still happened but that puts into question any details gleaned about the deeper lore.
Well, maybe the Ikana were Termina’s equivalent to the Skeikah
I had no idea about the symbols and connections and holy cow this was a great video! I would love to see a Yiga leader that was more serious, even though it kind of sounds terrifying. (I loved Master Koga in his own way though lol)
Outstanding work. Fantastic how you find such interesting new topics so long after the game's release.
Kohga reminds me of a typical firestarter - A person less involved in actually DOING, but inspiring others to DO. It makes a lot of sense in the sense that the Yiga are a split from the Sheikah. His fight was underwhelming, but honestly, this guy must have been charismatic and really believed in his cause. He mastered things that wouldnt befit a slouching warrior in ties to his kin. That's impressive in a way. Imagine if he had stayed fit and combat-ready... that fight might have been legendary.
Hyrule warriors says he is not bad as he is
Great job man. Perhaps there'll be a future episode on the "blood moon", and the reawakening of all evil through the incredible power of Ganon? :)
Now this is an interesting topic.
I would love to see a fight scene between a shiekah and yiga. That'd be dope
Kogha vs Monk Maz Koshia... with their BoTW AND AoC abilities.
@@seograt963 Honestly, I prefer Impa. Her abilities don't involve technology and so it feels like she's performing traditional and ancient Sheikah magic.
@@bastienlafleur5838 true…kogha vs impa!
Even better… Sooga vs Impa!
As soon as I saw nine symbols my sailor Moon loving ass knew what was up
It's funny how quickly the visual of the nine symbols used in meditation/prayer and the mentioning of the ofuda made me think of Hino Rei/Sailor Mars.
I thought you disappeared
Just imagining a Sheikah warrior Stasis-ing an opponent with their own magic, is frightening.
So... my mom was sleeping by my side when I watched this video and even with the sound in a low volume (no earphones) I still could hear everything clearly.
The sound of your videos are always good, Zeltik! Technically amazing! Thank you! 💕
I’ve been playing this game for more then 2 years but I still get shivers whenever I here this games music
Anyone else?
Audio trigger
Well, this video has music from other games too. I think I heard a bit of Bowser in here.
That moment when you realize that the hero’s charm gives the same effect as the champions tunic
The Yiga have so many secrets.
*y they hide??*
Something interesting about Monk Maz Koshia is that he doesn’t use all of the runes, only Magnesis and an assortment of magical abilities that we can’t use. As Cryonis doesn’t have much use in battle it’s probably safe to assume this is a magical ability he possesses or one of the easiest abilities to learn, but he doesn’t use stasis. Could be maybe see an incredibly powerful Sheika sorcerer in the next game who has access to all of these abilities, maybe even some sort of leader of the Sheika
6:02 Ibuki giving us a prime example of the classic flying squirrel kite thing Impa does later in Age of Calamity
Awesome that you shouted out GG! I sub to you both, and it's great to see this kind of positive interaction among content creators! (also, though unrelated, was great to see you collab with Shesez some time ago)
Magic and martial arts are some of the coolest things you can combine, right next to peanut butter and jelly
I'm your first like:)
(But not last)

Show of hands, any fans of Enid the witchninja from "OK K.O. Let's be heroes"?
* sigh * another great show canceled to make room for more "Teen Titans GO!"
Just imagine an enemy using Stasis+ against Link: a foe that can freeze us in time would be both terrifying and difficult.
Good idea for BOTW 2
14:07 Who's responsible for the advanced tech that used to be in Lanayru though...? It's hard to know, considering that's the beginning of the timeline. But yes when I noticed the similarities you mentioned, I figured that Sheikah tech actually uses their abilities. That may also be how the Blight Ganons were made. The Yiga contributed their magic to Calamity Ganon to make him more powerful, especially when you consider that theory about the prophecy & Zelda's mother
You just answered your own question. Lanayru, the Thunder Dragon, created the technology in Skyward Sword.

OMG this video was incredibly tops! Might be my fav one you have ever made. You have given me so much to think about and have offered a LOT of inspiration for my writing. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Man, this is an awesome video. I thought it was just covering the Letters used during battling Yiga but I found the ending, which linked Sheikah Tech/Magic seen in previous games and tying them with BOTW.
Love the Odyssey music 👌🏼
I would NEVER have guessed that those symbols correspond with the 9-syllable seals! Your videos always make me love the Zelda series even more! Just a VERY small mistake though, I hope you won't mind >< The order of the Japanese chart is in right-to-left order, so the alphabet correspondence should be: Z前 Z在 R裂 J陳 K皆 S者 T闘 P兵 R臨
Zeltik, you make some absolutely fantastic content. Your channel is like a Zelda version of one of my other favorites, Fudgemuppet, a place where I can learn damn near anything there is to know about the lore of an IP. I’ve been a Zelda fan since I started playing video games, and your videos fill in so many gaps and answer so many questions for me. Keep up the great work man!
Do you remember the Dominion Rod in Twilight Princess, when you conjure it, it glows green and gives life to statues? Farore, the Goddess of Courage, was the one who gave life to the Hylians and other races, and her symbolic color is also green. There's also the theory of the green we see in BOTW that symbolizes spirit, which you could see with the spirits of the King and the Champions, that they had green flames surrounding them, along with the Luminous Stones we see in the BOTW 2 trailer deep underneath Hyrule Castle, which could also symbolize the lives of the innocent victims of the Great Calamity, burrowed in the caves for the past 100 years
Great video. Your quality never sizes to amaze.
Another Masterpiece! Keep it going man!
This was BRILLIANT. These kinds of questions are the one I love hearing answered!
I love these videos. Great knowledge and really gets a person thinking and definitely makes me want part II soooo much more!!!
17:07 This man predicted Sooga before Age of Calamity was even being developed.
He sure did!
i love how you colored the shiekah clothes to look like a yiga
Just got round to watching this one, really interesting video. Loved it mate! :D
Zeltik I love your theory videos, they're very well analyzed and never boring. Really appreciate your work keep doing what you're doin'!
The wind cleaver and duplex bow are both favorites of mine.
Thank Hylia Zeltik is still making mind-blowing, original theories for us, three years after the game came out!
Fascinating...I love how Breath of the Wild added more depth to the Sheikah & the Gerudo. It would be wonderful to see more of that fleshing out in the sequel, as well as see the Zonai/Lurelinians get the same treatment (assuming Lurelin actually is the Zonai people) But yes it's interesting how powerful the Sheikah, Gerudo & Zonai all each seem to be. That could play a key role in the sequel...more of the Sheikah-Yiga feud, Ganondorf causing a rift in the Gerudo & the rediscovery of the Zonai
Love your videos keep up the great work!
I just can’t wait till botw2
It’ll be a very hyped 4 years
is out ndnfun
I’m sorry I’m commenting before I finished, but I noticed in the Kakariko village there is no sheikah technology. Most likely because they had seen what their creations were capable of and the mass genocide of the hylians. Possibly because of the guilt, they banned the weapons and kept it traditional
The kingdom banned them, the sheikah that accepted the ban are the ones in kakariko and the ones that became rebels are the yiga
dude, your videos are so cool and deep into Zelda´s history! Top notch!
The blue glowing light also reminds me of the gate of time, goddess cubes, and timeshift stones. Interestingly, hyrule historia suggests that the ocarina of time could be made out of a timeshift stone
I think your theory about the finger symbols is enforced by the fact that Impa uses finger symbols when she uses her special attack in Age of Calamity.
The same can be said for Sooga in Guardian of Remembrance when he casts a freezing spell for one of his weak-point smashes as well as during that cutscene where he protects Kohga from all four Blight Ganons.
Don't forget you can use ancient arrows in place of the bow of light, so it would make sense if they're from the same source.
Now I love all your videos but this was really interesting! Great work man!
I just discovered your channel today and it is awesome! Keep up the good work!
for non native japanese those weren't too off, Restu was the only one thats distinctly off since most of the time the u is half silent.
Zeltik has mastered the ninja art of story telling.
Yes!
Every episode of yours is brilliant. Keep up the great work
"It makes me wonder if, in Breath of the Wild's sequel, we could see a true, evil Sheikah villain. Not the comic relief of Master Kohga, but a calculating, powerful Yiga who rivals Maz Koshia..."

kakariko? more like konoha... hehehe
We all know.
Let me guess. Naruto.
The only time we see more and seen shieka fight and it’s against us....
This makes me appreciate Shieka tech even more! Thank you for yet another amazing video!
Great video! You provide a great in-depth look and understanding!
i’ve never been on one of your videos this early wow
Same
Just realized your intro card song is from "tale of a hero" in zelda.
Positively wonderful, Love the effort up into the video
This was a fantastic video, well researched and put together
I heavily agrre with everything you had said
Man I wish Master Kohga was less silly and a bit harder to fight
Well, he was suffering from hyperkalemia
I think kohga is hiding something maybe his actions are to do with maybe he might be lonely or something darker
funnily enough, the Shadow Cloning Technique actually has two variants, in history it's suggested that one way is to move incredibly quickly as you said, the most accepted form however is for multiple shinobi to dress exactly the same, making it seem as though there are many of the same individual or that said individual can appear and disappear from multiple places, terrifying their targets
I found this very entertaining. I really enjoy the deep thought that goes into deciphering the Legend of Zelda lore.
Remember to thumbs up this type of high effort, scripted youtube content 😃
Will there be a dark link fight in the sequel due to its gritty tone
Great video my friend and excellent quality soon you will get to one million subs
lmao i havent watched one of your videos since janurary and seeing the intro and hearing your voice brings back memories of binging late at night, tryna watch all your vids
I find it odd how the Yiga Clan uses Shiekah symbols, yet most of the yiga clan are not even shiekah. There is Hylians, Shekiah, and other races inside the group.
All shiekah are biologically hylians, but not all hylians are shiekah
I wonder if they'll be in BOTW2
I love how you mention your other videos in every video. Tying them all together so naturally. You could teach a master course on Zelda I stg
Genuinely fascinating. Great video Zeltik!
My theory: Master kohga was originally like Ganondorf, cunning and smart, so he volunteered to become a monk in the shrines, his was to guard the hole in which the orb is thrown into, and did so so when Gannon was brought back in the future, he could fight the hero and stop him, this would explain why he and his clan know how to do the runes.
The monks are in the shrines, they don't guard the entrance. The monks were from thousands of years ago, kept alive from something not confirmed, but master kogha looks nothing like them. The monks looks almost skeletal, and again, no monks guard the platform seen used for shrine quests, they only appear within them (excluding Maz Koshia).
Also, the monks were from thousands of years ago (surviving through what people think to be a self-preservation technique) so if you weren't a monk but you were a sheikah, you lifespan would only be 125 -150 years.
I learned this new moves from Monk Maz Koshia!!!!
*A ring of nine symbols appears me and disappeared then reappear with talisman behind me and I preform a down thrust and does it again to create shadow clones*

5:07 Oh boi, i've forgotten how terribly deadly this looks. That fall looks like it bashed Sheik's head in AND immediately broke her neck.
...And then you realize this is Princess Zelda. This incident could have immediately ended Ocarina of Time right there on the spot with Bongo Bongo unknowingly killing Princess Zelda.
My theory is that the Sheikah magic is performed via incantations, which are what we see in the kuji-in rings, much like Nordic runes, and their technology is just developed from them essentially typing those runes into the devices, hence whenever a rune is distilled into the slate you see text pouring down. It's essentially a download of a spell the Sheikah could "recite" by themselves. The Sheikah knew the code and the slate gives others a GUI for it.
