Hero's Purpose Episode 4 out March 25th! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Thank you for your patience!
WOOOOOOOOO YEAH BABY THATS WHAT WE WANTED WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Enfin une nouvelle vidéo
your animations are absolutely stunning!! the effort in every scene and the way you tie Link’s past and present today is so heartfelt. also, what’s the name of the song that plays during the credits? it’s really nice :)
no...thank you for your effort
when is epidose 5 coming out?
The people waiting the day of: Oh I can’t wait!
The people that got here 3 days early: I haven’t slept in 72 hours
What's "sleep"?
*Dawn of the first day*
72 hours remaining
42 hours remain.
😂😂😂
I was like ohh premiere for major link's videos me when I click aw shit it's in 25 hours and I gotta go to school
That hug between Link and Zelda was the most heartwarming moment in the series.
I wouldn’t be sure it’ll stay that way, it might get better later in the series. That’s not a bad thing though!
fought back tears
heartbreaking*
Brought me to tears
Link needed that hug. After all the stuff he've been through.
Zelda: "You helped us a lot by holding on to this treasure and keeping it away from evil."
*Cut to Majora's Mask where Link loses it immediately*
Thankfully he got it back.
Link: “we don’t talk about that....”
do you really have to ruin the moment jindo
@@nickolasdavis8373 Yes.
@@jindo5 why is that everyone's response to that question.
Seeing Malon look at link at 2:45, I'm holding it together.
Seeing Impa giving Link the new sword and shield at 12:05, I'm holding it together.
Seeing an obviously older Link stuck in a kid's body trying to handle Zelda saying goodbye at 12:25, I'm getting the feels.
Seeing Link's eyes dart around and flashback of Zelda sending him back in time at 13:33, I'm starting to lose it.
That transition from child Zelda not saying what she wanted to adult Zelda leaping in a huge hug with Link at 15:05, I'm bawling.
They bettee give Malon and Link some moments. That can explain about Link in Twilight Princess
@@omegazero9580 they will she’s probably gonna be his rem where she’s his strength when he’s struggling and probably because of Zelda duty link and her could never be together. At least that’s what I think it will be a bittersweet love triangle story and I’m all for it!!
Me when I saw malone and link: are they soulmates 😂👁👄👁
@@omegazero9580 most people (that I've come across, at least) think that malon/link did happen after Majora's Mask. That explains how TP link knows Epona's song
@@adamryrie8219 Agreed.
The transition from child Zelda saying goodbye to adult Zelda rushing to him is an absolute masterpiece. Im not crying! You're crying!
I was crying too.
It really was. The entire series is a masterpiece.
Heck yeah I’m crying, and I’m not ashamed of it
The scene teared me up too. This is incredible.
I cry everytime I see it, hell I'm crying right now
Nintendo Hire this man already! This needs to be turned into a game. 👀👀
This has to become a game Nintendo come on
Oh my Din YES!!!
Yes!
True
Forget that this could and should be a movie
I loved Link's fight with Sheik. He already knew all of her moves, so he was able to catch her by surprise at every turn.
And that hug between him and Zelda was so beautiful.
Not going to lie, I would buy a game based on this in a heartbeat. I've always wanted a bridge story between Majora's Mask and how the Hero of Time became the Hero's Shade.
Theres “a missing link” which is what happened in between OOT and MM so something like that could work well
@@actually-will1606 wym? Oot and mm link are the exact same link
I would love to play this as a game too!
@@jorsanxander4737 Yes its the same link, "missing link" is just the name of the game (an excellent oot rom hack with cool soundtracks)
Nah. It's a cool mod, but I can't consider it headcanon because of it killing off Saria, and for a pretty stupid reason, which would contradict this.
ZELDA RUSHING OVER TO LINK MADE MY LIFE
Absolutely stunning. Brings me to tears every single time
I was shouting "YEEEESSSSS!" I absolutely love ZeLink 😭💜
@@Dreamr4life1 ZeLink is really sweet. Not every entry deems it true but occasionally it fits very well
@@Wherethehellarewegoing it's actually canon believe it or not. I remember reading somewhere about it being confirmed
Gave me life omg.
I love how he has to show the ocarina of time to prove he's important to Zelda like in the Majora's mask manga
YES, FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE WHO'S READ IT. IT WAS AMAZING.
@@lilykaneko4036 it was so good highly recommended anyone reading this here’s a link www.writerscafe.org/writing/Moonlightninja/1129439/
Zelda has mangas? Like... OFFICIAL mangas? Where can I find all of them? I saw you provided the link for a majora’s mask one, but are there any others I should know about?
I want to read the TP one 😢 i cant find the full one
@@simplysplendid6045 yes there’s links awakening, twilight princess, 4 swords, minish cap, and ocarina of time and link to the past and more use some certain manga apps and download them or search online
“Welcome home...Link” is the best line ever. Something Nintendo never used or would use
Zelda's wording is especially sweet, welcome home, not welcome back, welcome HOME. As in if he asked, there would always be a place at the castle for him when he needed it. Also, come on Zelda, we all know you meant 'I've missed you' not 'We've missed you'.
I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING
@@keithadams7619 “we’ve missed you, but it’s not like I like you or anything. Baka!”
It seems the actual developers of the game want to implement these kinds of story beats - but Miyamoto refuses to let them go ahead with them most of the time.
@@gorgeeshmorgee4660listen! You are me!!! Because I’m definitely not the one crying! 😂😭😭
15:48 Maybe I’m reading into it too much, but this scene is why I love the addition of the dialogue options. Link may have said that he’s here to return the ocarina, but the dialogue options show us what he’s thinking in his head. It shows us all he truly wants is his friend back. TLDR: The addition of dialogue options does a surprisingly well job at fleshing out Link’s character.
It's honestly really clever writing if you think about it.
Yeah that’s actually huge. I’m back here watching them all again.
It shows you can have dialog options that add to the story while still having it linear. It doesn't matter which one you pick, the story will always move in the same direction eventually, but it can add so much character to the player character (Link in this case).
it's amazing!
That just goes to show all link wants is navi back
Link: selflessly returns the ocarina of time one of hyrules most precious treasures to zelda
Me in all zeldas: selfishly collects and hoards every treasure with any value for myself
On a second watch I noticed that the “Knight’s Unison” is exactly what the Hero’s Shade and TP Link do when they start their training and I AM SO EMOTIONAL 😭
Majorlink sure put a great details here
The Sword-thing he does with the Hero of Twilight being the "Knight's Unison" is my headcanon now.
Oh my god... how did I not notice that!?
I know right!
I cried :'3
i feel the scene so hard where zelda hugged link. like a woman who sees her husband again after the war
Don’t make me feel things dude •, _ ,•
I cried during that part
Episode 3 is still in the works I'm sorry for the delays, college just finished so I'm on it full force!
Oh, I thought you had a Break.
Don't you worry. This is not something you do under demand. It's so nice of you to spare time to give us what the major producers couldn't. Thank you for such an amazing work!!
Everything you've made so far is amazing- all the detail and time you put into it... Don't feel rushed to make another masterpiece. Take your time, don't worry, and thank you for everything you do!
Dont worry, this is amazing job thank you!
One of the very little things that i am looking forward to, keep up the great work!
Me after watching this video: "I don't need sleep, I need Hero's Purpose EP 3"
EXACTLY SAME
Same here
Yes.
I can't lie. That whole sequence with kid zelda and kid link saying goodbye and the transition to present time of her hugging him made me cry
Same...was not ready for that at all, but it felt really great since none of the other end-game cut-scenes in the actual Zelda games felt as satisfying. Idk why but Nintendo has kept the relationship between Link and Zelda really low-key as just friends for the most part, and that kinda bothered me...It wasn't until BoTW that we really got to see that she actually really cares for him beyond that, but she was mostly either emotionally distant, or really mean to him throughout their time together until he saves her from the Yiga clan ambush.
@@davidcrawford5324 Don't forget skyward sword! But yeah I get what you mean.
@@dayshallcomeagain Truth be told I never owned a Wii to play SS on, but I did get to play it some at a friend's house. I wasn't a fan of the control scheme however. The motion controls were pretty janky compared to say, Twilight Princess for the same platform. As a result I never played SS all the way through to see how the ending played out
To me, it feels like a holdover from the original pair of Hylia the goddess and her chosen mortal hero. Mortal and deity can never really be together beyond a bond of loyalty and trust, and whatever curse that Demise put on Hylia and her hero feels like it’s anchoring each of them in their respective roles in perpetuity.
Same 😭😭😭😭😭💛💛💛 this is the true ending to the hero of times era we needed. I can't wait to see more. It makes it even better they based this off of what is cannon ⚔️ Zelda fans everywhere, MUCH LOVE.
All the generation who plays OcarinaOfTime in a N64 has been waiting for that hug reunion during all the teenage years and adulthood :') Excellent work, it moved me to tears!!!
Too true dude. I always wanted to see link return to zelda after MM.
YASSSSSSSSS!
I, too, welled up a lot. The writing and photography were top stuff. I loved the Zelda/Sheik scenes. Oh, the fight scene and flashback of the timeline that never was romantic.
THIS.. I cried..
15:02 you're welcome and crying
15:31 Zelda is hugging Link so tight, even his shield is gasping for air.
This could legit be an opening cutscene for a direct sequel to Majora's Mask.
And a direct prequel to Twilight Princess too
YESSSSS!
@@shawnhenderson2091 That I don't care very much about lol but I guess yeah.
14:54 That whole sequence was just breathtakingly romantic. With Zelda rushing by her past self, no hesitation or standing on royal station. Just holding Link tight as if making up for not rushing after him all those years ago.
Had to click again to watch and got a candy crush advert first, the pure sacrilege ffs 🤣🤣🤣
Oot Zelink has to be one of my favorite Zelinks, but it's SO underrated it's ridiculous. Their interactions in this video shows just why I love it so much.
“Thankfully, Ganondorf does not know the keys to entering the Sacred Realm”
*2 minutes later*
So that was a fucking lie.
Ganon always spying or has spies...
This is the one criticism I have about the video, everything else is wonderful. Ganondorf clearly does know the keys to entering the sacred realm and they should know that. He specifically told the guardians of the races he wanted the spiritual stones and went after the Ocarina of Time. The Great Deku Tree tells Link that Ganondorf wanted the spiritual stone.
@@ulickeldroma1 Makes me wonder of it was because the timeline was returned when Link was done as a child and Ganondorf never went to the other temples that they believe that. Remember, Gabon came about when young Link placed the stones and the Sword sealed his spirit in the Sacred Realm. Ganondorf got access by Link and then later by other people. He never had the stones or found them, the realm was opened by others and he or his followers got into the realm by other means. The followers repeated resurrected the malformed presence of Ganon the demon not always the body of Ganondorf because another male from the Gerudo also becomes a Ganon by other means. Then the Twilight Princess says the Sacred Mirror was used to access her world and used against the world of Princess Zelda. So to me seems the meaning is that Ganondorf never accessed the realm without help from others. So maybe Zelda assumes Gabon doesn't know how to access the stones and song and in Windwaker Zelda get possessed and Ganon the demon has to be exorcised from Zelda before he can throw himself into the Sacred realm but his follower lets their body be used to keep that evil spirit from being banished. Not sure but that's what I was thinking as the reason Zelda says this. 😊💯👍💗
I thought Ganondorf was destroyed! 😬
@@AlexFeltcha.k.a.SonicAL The spirit Ganon that he turned into the gets resurrected twice that I know off. Once by the twin witches angry Link put them in their place and Medina from a world whose Triforce was over used till it was destroyed. The other Gerudo kid got himswlf possessed trying to use what Ganondorf used. That's all I know, the demon itself tries to come back when the seals break because it is not just purposed to take over Hyrule and has no other mind, like Calamity Ganon. I know I am missing some in between like the time Link got spilt into four of the four seasons.
The moment at 7:38 where Link has all of Zelda’s idiosyncrasies memorized to an exact science is extremely compelling. The flashbacks anticipating her every move learned from the past is artistically the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen from a storytelling perspective ever!
he kicked her ass
This is, by far, the best Zelda fan project in existence currently. The animation is fantastic, the music is flawless, and the story is engaging. It is everything a Zelda series should be. I cannot wait to see the next part!
I give it a month before Nintendo Ruins this
@@dreadlordaxtonus6673this aged bad
@@kingharlequin1442 Thankfully! lol
Even though Link has reunited with Zelda here, it has to be incredibly bittersweet for him, seeing as the Zelda he had grown to know doesn't actually exist in his timeline. To stare into her eyes and realize that although she has the same face, the same voice, the same smile, ultimately she's not the Zelda he knows. A cruel joke, taunting Link with a reality he will never have.
That hurts
I like say the reality in front of him[child timeline] is like a freash blade ready to be fasten to the guard n hilt.
That's what makes this powerful. That emotional element to it. The added flashbacks a reminder of that. The young link from this timeline is lost. Navy is gone. A Zelda he doesn't know. A Hyrule he doesn't know. No real place to call home. Then to hold onto those memories of the other timeline. The bonds he had in that timeline. He had a sense of purpose in that timeline.
Here has just been drifting looking for a friend.
Although the young Zelda in front of him would never fully become the Zelda he knew, she still has the same heart. That heart is the reason she gave Link a chance to live his childhood by sending him back in time at the end of the timeline. This is a huge sacrifice for this Zelda, since in her timeline, Link won't exist anymore. From that, Link knows something about the current Zelda that she herself doesn't know. About something she'll never do, but that she's willing to do given the circumstances.
I like to think this is the reason we see Link thanking her before leaving for Termina.
Ya it does hurt
Oot zelink is the most sad and wholesome at the same time
I legit cried when she hugest him😭
Me too! It was so heartwarming, but also very heartbreaking because it probably won't happen again until after Twilight Princess. Oh my, I'm getting teary-eyed just thinking about it! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I'm more of a Link x Malon guy in OoT, but this scene between Link and Zelda was awesome.
@@Kruegernator123 agreed
bitter sweet
I love Link's hesitancy at 15:22, even though they're childhood friends, he is still unsure if he is actually allowed to hug Zelda in return as she is the Princess of Hyrule
I took it more as just surprise on his part. Remember this link has been through some shit especially imagine the toll his mental state took in termina. He’s always been on guard shit maybe on the edge so when she warmly embraced him he was taken off guard and gave in to something he hasn’t felt in a long time. He become vulnerable which is probably hard to do as he’s had so much on his shoulders
@@andyramirez4293 agreed. Dude probably hasn't been hugged in a long time.
Gotta agree guys, when he hugs her back you can see him FINALLY relax. He realizes in that moment he is safe with someone who loves and cares for him
I'd prefer to think it's a bit of both. He may be well-respected by the Royal Family of Hyrule, but he is still so loyal and respectful towards the Royal Family that he is a bit hesitant to show any affection back towards the princess. He also isn't shown to ever have any love interests, so that probably plays a huge role. But he also suffers from being 7 years older mentally than he actually is, and has been through a lot of shit. He has saved two separate lands, yet all but a select few people (namely, Skull Kid, Tatl, Navi if she still exists, Tael, and the Happy Mask Salesman), and each of them only knows that Link saved ONE world. Navi is the only one who knew that Link saved Hyrule in the future, and Tatl, Tael, Skull Kid, and the Happy Mask Salesman are the only ones who are aware of Link's journey to save Termina. So he's pretty much always on guard just in case he ends up having to save the world again.
Hugs are disgusting.
I really don't understand why people worship them so much.
holy mother of hylia, love that sheik returned, malon is gorgeous and zelda's lullaby during the reunion was just perfect, love the fact that he shows reluctance when he's deciding what to say. you tear me up man
I keep rewatching that scene where he fights Shiek, because his calm prediction of her fighting pattens timed with the flashbacks and the MUSIC is beautiful. I absolutely adore your right choreography.
People would call that cheating if we had time travel
Because link already knew sheiks moves from the adult timeline
@@matthewma6795 That’s exactly what he said
@@sceptile7581 ya my bad
@@matthewma6795 It’s fine
I really like this concept, if Nintendo had made this into a game I would have thought it was actually canon.
Nintendo wants the players to let their imaginations run wild and believe in their own canon, aside from them confirming every little detail.
There is so much love put into this, that I can't help but consider it canon in my own head canon.
It is kinda
15:36 The flower Skull kid gave to Link... Saying friends will always find each other... That continuity. So beautiful.
That was last episode. But I got tery eyed.
@@lizziesstorytime1538 I know. Continuity.
@@ltrs1212 Yellow lillies symbolize gratitude and friendship!
Perfect touch, didn't even notice it
ooo that transition of young Zelda watching young Link ride off right into adult Zelda hugging adult Link was soo good and so cute
I feel like the fact that when a lot of us first played OOT we were kids and now we are grown up and so it makes this feel even more special to us. It is like we are returning to old familiar places and faces just like Link is in this series.
Yup
we cry babies as adults
@@joshharper9306 CRY BBS HAS FUCK TT_TT
Exactly. I love legend of Zelda games so much bc it made my childhood better. Now i will replay all the Zelda games I have and finnaly finish them. For me, Is Zelda number 1# game
I am only a teen so it’s hard for me to relate but I got a copy of oot 3D when I was little and beat it before these videos came out so it still feels a little special
The ending to this series is gonna be devastating.
yep if this is going the the way I think this will lead right in to twilight princess meaning Link dead at the end to become the hero shade but that just me guessing
@@jdglavin Yep, you guys are spot on, that is exactly where this is headed. "Hero's Purpose" is the thing dead Link talks about with Twilight Link. Also the helmets the Hylians are wearing are a big hint...I think the intent will be to follow up these videos after completion with MajorLink's Twilight series he did awhile back which I can't get through without getting super emotional, this guy is a master
@@shawnhenderson2091 oh thanks I was just guessing lol
holy shit our protagonist is going to lose an eye at some point. Do you guys think that will be the wound that kills him or will he get it before he dies?
@@aflyingsaucer4787 Idk all I know is he end up dead went he enter the lost world again and just dies but 1st he need to get his descendant or his "son" that being Twilight Link
"You look more mature than the first time we met" - 12:12 and the expression on link's face really hit hard.
Anybody else really digging brown and gold as Link’s colors or is it just me?
Also, LINK AS FUTURE HIGH RANK OFFICER CONFIRMED 🥺
they suit the hero of time oddly more than the green in my opinion
That transition from child Zelda to adult Zelda? *Chef's kiss* Brilliant! The narration in this episode is wonderful, and I like that Link stops at several key places, with different people. All those flashbacks he has makes it clear he struggles to be here.
Loved the indecisiveness in his answer to Zelda regarding his being home again. But ouch, that hurt ;o;
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that indecisiveness. Man was this animation good
@@kalebramirez7327 same and we even got some zelink in that hug! Hard to imagine in that scene link wearing that helmet is the same one he wears as the hero's shade
I love how just the action of the arrow going up and down says so much about how Link is feeling at the moment. He knows the real reason he's come back. He wants to find Navi, but he can't just say that to Zelda's face.
Holy crap that was so good. Sheik’s reaction to the “soldier” being Link, Impa and Link’s facial expressions, Zelda rushing over to hug Link... so much about their characters are told through details like that and it’s so amazing! And bonus points for including Malon that was just a cherry on top lolll.
Really really looking forward to what’s happening in the Gerudo area, and whether Nabooru is fighting against Ganondorf or not
So Sheik is actually a real person and not just someone Zelda made up?
@@tonytan5945 Zelda is shiek.
@@falgo-dj3lj But why is she hiding her identity from her own troops? My first point is the usual “princesses can’t fight”. My other point is the possibility of being discovered by a spy.
@@mistressofdreams6031 If u talk to the sheikah stone close to the principal castle gates using the mask of truth, it'll tell you "They say that, contrary to her elegant image, Princess Zelda of Hyrule Castle is in fact a tomboy!" so I guess Sheik is another personality she feels comfortable with
"that's shiek"
Link "bullshit"
"Who's low tier now!?"
LMAO
“The totally canon story of the greatest Link”
They are all the greatest link, they are all the "same" link. Just in different times.
@@Sycepts they aren’t all the same Link
@@Bad616 They are, they are all descendants of the hero of time. making them all the same "link."
@@youroldfriend862 okay I agree with that
@@Sycepts yes but remember this link is the one who more or less started the three timelines, his actions created two of them and we know how it ends here, Ganondorf still fails. Like this though gives us little more insight what happened between majora mask and twilight princess
15:02 - TEARS
IKR I'M SOBBING SO HARD OMGGGGG
TEARS EVERYWHERE EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M FLOODING MY HOUSE WITH MY TEARS!!!!!!!!!!! TwT
More like the whole thing. I kept thinking "Zelda, are you TRYING to make Link cry?!"
You can tell she really does love him... in what way idk but she really does...her dialogue gives me the feeling maybes more than just friends
My Zelink heart sobbed so hard in this part!
I love how you make link talk only through "dialog menus" to preserve the feel of the games
And he used them to tell us more about link's thoughts
1:51
Guard: why do you have the ocarina of time?
Link: its a long story, most of it is part of another time line and you probably wouldn’t believe most of it if I told you
COVID's so bad that even Hyrule is in lockdown
To top it all off, let's call it Calamity-19 instead.
Haha
@@dayshallcomeagain You two, beautiful people, just won the entire Internet! lol
@@dayshallcomeagain grand disaster-19
take it or abandon it
But as soon as the right set of politicians are in charge then suddenly............lock down lifted!
ANOTHER AMAZING EPISODE!! I do not care that this isn’t “official”. This IS canon in my mind. And this is the story for me. So damn good
these are the best animations i've ever seen in my life
Tru dat
Yeah he got me into the things
Yes. He inspired me to start using source filmmaker for my own comics
Animation: I’ve seen better and can improve
Story: i love the management and the history itself
I want to see more
Dude keep the hard working
Honestly!
The part where Zelda hugs Link brings tears to my eyes. She knows all the pain Link went through for her, the people, and Hyrule. She knows she's part of Link's suffering, and all she can do is comfort him.
You really think she does know about the events link went through in OoT? Not that I disagree & maybe she doesn’t know everything but at least knows links achievement & gratification was stolen.
that hug with link and zelda cleared my skin, watered my crops, and cured my depression, it was so beautifully done. thank you!
This came out earlier than expected.
When you stop waiting and just "forget it" will appear before you know
SAME
I wondered when this would come out
1 year
Yeah, so did I
Did anyone else tear up when Zelda and link hugged?
*I'm crying very hard rn, so yeah.*
That emotional burst 😭
@@NikolisPontios I absolutely agree lol
Yes i screamed i cried TwT
This whole video made me tear up
Not gonna lie. Got a bit teary eyed when Zelda hugged Link.
This is some excellent work man.
This isn't official. This isn't canon. There's basically nothing to support this.
But holy damn, is it good! This is almost exactly how I've pictured it myself, only this has better animation (in my mind it's always been N64 graphics).
This whole episode was amazing. Zelda and Link's farewell as kids was really sad, summoning tears to my eyes and sadness to my heart, but then the reunion just said "fuck that!" and destroyed me. When Zelda leapt into Link's arms, I basically exploded into a mess of tears and snot and happiness.
I love it. Watching this makes me so happy I can't explain it.
Can't wait for the next episode!
PS: This SHOULD be canon. Because this is what we, the fans, want and need. We need closure, and this is it.
I can't be the only one who was practically crying when Zelda threw her arms around Link and then Link actually hugged her back! It was such a beautiful and well-deserved moment. Well done!
Honestly started crying when adult zelda were crying while sending link back
@@shadowtheshadowlord literally same.
That moment was so touching and beautiful :') Impossible not to cry 💚
Cfgh^
I nearly cried when Link was remembering his parting with the future Zelda and was overcome with chills from hearing the Song of Time! Excellent work as always!
Holy shit when Zelda ran into Links arms and hugged him I started bawling my eyes out. This is like watching everything I imagined happening when I was a kid and it's making me so happy.
Everyone: *comments*
Majorlink: I can’t read over all this money
Wait he got payed? That makes it all the better given the effort in this
Not even an ad in the whole video when I seem to get 1 every 3 minutes in each "Zelda fan theory" I see those days. I don't know if he had been paid but definitely not by youtube ads.
@@agent3299 I doubt he does, Nintendo is a bitch with copyright. As much as I hope he is, he's probably not.
Glad that Zelda could be made into a real animated show!
Technically there was an animated show, but I would recommend to keep yourself in blissful ignorance.
@@juanlaise1059 Oh yeah. True, there is a DIC entertainment show, but I meant ANIMATION, not cartoon.
@@mansaw3361 The cartoon had a few good episodes. I have it on DVD!
Well excuuuuuse me princess, ahem couch* it already was... *Cough*
This is absolutely magnificent.
I was brought to tears by how Zelda ran up to Link and hugged him so hard. 💖
Absolutely beautiful
Something I've noticed about this, is that in the game before Link meets Zelda, Link meets Malon First, and in this episode before he goes to the castle to see Zelda, he sees Malon first again, it's a very good detail, as if Link and Malon were destined for each other , very good work MajorLink
This does not deserve dislikes whatsoever, this is just a complete treat through and through
Your right man
Nintendo wont see it that way they will just shut it down cause they are using patreon money to fund this and they don't own Zelda Franchise nor do they have Permission from nintendo otherwise they wouldn't need the Patreon just say this is going to be shut down which sucks but its there own fault for tring to make money off of stuff that an't theirs
@@dreadlordaxtonus6673 Dude.
14:38 Shit. The camera angle makes Link look like his grown-up state hits kinda hard in the feels.
Everything in this video is PERFECT!
WTF NINTENDO! GET THIS MAN AND MAKE A CG LEGEND OF ZELDA MOVIE ALREADY >:D!
Nintendo could make many fans happy with consolidating the hero of times story like this.
Dude when Zelda rushed in to hold Link, I kind of teared up a bit.
I come back to this still, because I feel that you’re truly understand the majesty, the tragedy, and the story that is the Hero of Time.
One thing I love is that Link still has a hard time saying how he feels. Whenever dialogue comes up for his cue, it always says he wants to find his friend, which is Navi. Still though, he feels that his duty comes first. It’s so sad...
It is incredibly rare to find such talent as this. You and your team has made something so beautiful! Its hard to express with words how moving and touching this short animated show is. The way you portray the characters before, during and after Link pulled the Maser Sword. To them, no time has passed, but to Link, he lived through the future. Then you show his memories of his time in Termina. Even with the games as a baseline for the character, we see how the conflict has been on each person. Its so beautiful. I WANT MORE!!
He’s actually a one man team which is even more incredible
As Kylo ren once said:mooooooooooooooooooorrreeeeee
"Hyrule is in lockdown" Glad it's not just us!
I literally squealed when I saw Malon.
I'm going to spend the next however many months it takes for episode 3 rewatching these two ❤️
The way Zelda went to hug Link tho...my Zelink shipper heart 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Also I loved the nod to the ending of ocarina of time when Link handed over the ocarina.
I know that Malink is more popular but I REALLY hope that Link and Zelda end up together.
@@dayshallcomeagain Nah malink isnt more popular. It’s just the more canon theory for oot for the child timeline.
I’m pretty sure Zelink is still the most popular oot ship out of them all tbh. Especially in Japan. I see a lot of fanart made by eastern fans depicting them together.
@@SidusAstrum Well good to see I'm not the only Zelink shipper in the world regardless.
I do ship Zelink...but Malink is endgame for being MUCH more logical and cute in OOT. If only we had more Malink moments in the game...😔
THE LINK AND ZELDA REUNION HAD ME IN TEARS!!!! It's so beautiful!!
the two dislikes are nintendo employees because they're mad they didn't make this story
More like Ganondorf and his lackeys
They made this story posible and thats all I can thank them for
@@jinmiguel6884 - Aren't they the same thing???
Though I am typing I just want to let you know that I am speechless. This has surpassed all of my expectations. And I can say for sure that so many of us feel the same way. Majorlink please keep it up. You aren't just talented you have a gift that few are ever given.
This means a lot thank you seriously! You all have made my day :''')
If Ocarina of Time was a movie, this would be the movie. You actually did a better job than Hollywood ever could. You have both passion and talent. I loved this episode! I also loved the blue uniforms on some of the knights. It is a bit reminiscent of the blue tunics for Breath of the Wild.
Bringing in Malon, the memory of him leaving for Termina, the helmet from Twilight Princess, and seeing Sheik were all just goosebump moments. Thank you for all your hard work! It’s beautiful!
History hates a Paradox.
Even though Link changed history, there are bound to still be events that will still happen regardless of Link’s interference.
And for every gain that Link achieved from those changes, there’s bound to be an equal cost in losses.
It’s only now after 7 years that Link has to live with those costs one by one through experience.
"History abhors paradoxes, Raziel"
@@JCRS92 A man of culture I see
Yeah, that Malon tease, you did us real dirty with that.
Felt that
Arg...why can't they be together already?
@@Game_Hero I have a feeling that will happen later in the story to provide for Malon and Link being the grandparents of Twilight Princess Link. That might be like the happy ending.
Facts!!!!!
@@fictionalortrue9898 There isn't really any *solid* proof that OoT Link is related to TP Link, but that's what Nintendo has been kinda hinting at for a while now. I agree with the theory but they can always change it.
I got the feels when Zelda hugged link then he hugged back.
@philz2002 couldn't agree more
All of the references and homages to Twilight Princess makes me enjoy being a fan of the Zelda Series. I wish there will be a full movie starting from Link waking up, to Twilight Link saying goodbye to Midna
The Hero of Time needs a trilogy.
This is here much earlier than I was expecting. I assumed it would be close to a year between episodes
yeah its crazy impressive
That "Thank you Zelda" really got me, felt like it was the audience thanking the franchise for such amazing memories. Love what you're doing with this series.
15:02 now THAT is some A+ cinematography. Easily my favorite scene so far. Well done, these episodes are amazing so far =)
14:57 starts the journey to the lost forest in which link falls into termina leading to the majoras mask.
But also if you count the rom (loz the missing link) that's the between adventure of oot and majoras mask. So technically he was heading towards that adventure at this time
The Zelda and link scene was so beautiful
Amazing job Majorlink
Btw how did you get that young Zelda model?
To my knowledge, these are all original. If not, I certainly couldn’t tell you where they’re from.
I thought he made them from scratch.
Probably he got them on the unreal 4 project or he got them from games and started modeling the polygons
Human trafficking is no joke. 😒
Looks like the models from hyrule warriors
Only ganon would dare to give this a thumbs down. I'm so stoked. Feels like a tv show approved by nintendo and made with the love of Star Wars: The Clone Wars tv show.
“The captain” shows up.
Me: OOOOOOH NOOOOOOOOOO
THANKS GOD IM NOT THE ONE WHO THINK OF THIS
Ikr
Twilight's princess' connoisseurs I bid you a nice embrace.
*ladies and gentlemen we all know where this is going.*
It's so weird seeing link not in green. Also I love how he tied his other animations into this story by having link remember all of sheik's tricks. Makes this feel so much more like a continuation of the story.
I think you should also mention that Link isn't wearing his traditional hat, but I could be wrong.
Very impressive, connecting the ending of Majora’s Mask to the Hylian-Gerudo War. This animation is incredible! The way in which you set up things that we see in the future from these events, such as this same Link wearing the armor he does (as a ghost-skeleton) in Twilight Princess, the aforementioned Hylian-Gerudo War that resulted in Ganondorf’s imprisonment and failed execution, was very well-thought-out. Great work!
Dang the Malon tease, why you gotta do us like that? 😭
Fr😭
You've connected all the details from ocarina of time to majora's mask and even twilight princess. Such an amazing job. It was full of emotions and excitement. Thank you Major Link. We all love you and will continue to encourage your amazing work. ❤️👍🗡️
Thank you for making our adulthoods a little brighter. I’ve always felt attached to the hero of time, and seeing him struggle with the hardships of feeling directionless and disconnected from loved ones is heartbreaking, yet comforting on some level. This feels like one gigantic closure, and I am HERE for it.
The magic that happens when someone with a passion makes something, is truly incredible. Can really connect on an emotional level with what the creator has made here
9:30 has no one noticed that this is how the hero’s shade (hero of time) always starts his training sessions with the hero of twilight in twilight princess? Why do I see no one else pointing this out???? Lmaooo
Because it is a bitter end for the hero of time.
I did notice, don’t worry
YES! I noticed it!
captain at 3:59 is wearing hero's shade armor
oh fuck thats so cool. i never noticed
Me: causally liking the video because i know Major will not disappoint.
Same!
First thing I do when watching his videos!
HAHA SAME
7:40 I loved how Link’s past experiences and training with Sheik made him read Sheik like a book. That was amazing!
Who needs sleep when there’s another MajorLink animation to watch? Can’t wait for the next part, but if it gets as tragic as I think it will, I’m going to need a few extra heart pieces. :(
I honestly loved that dialogue sequence where Link saying "Thank you, Zelda" pops up before selecting the ellipses; also that hug reminded me of the heartbreaking/warming scene of Zuko with Uncle Iroh. So touching.
Oh my goodness! I love this so much!
Three rounds of applause for this dude
It is very well made and I love the music
No way! You watch this too?!
Scene at 7:12 mimicks that of twilights shadow scene episode 2. Nice touch there, epic bit of forshadowing for the meeting of the 2 links
Didn’t notice that until now
This story is doing The Hero of Time just my friend. Well done.
Indeed it does.
Things that keep me with hope:
Life
Music
Games and
Major Link Series
The flashbacks to your other OoT works where Link was ambushed or otherwise caught off-guard by Sheik was epic.
This really looks to be the sequel to your in-progress adaptation of OoT's events, doesn't it?
Makes me wonder if you'll do MM in the future...
