I think for Teba it was more of a humbling experience, learning that his hero was just as much a real person as anyone from his time. "I got to see the real face of the Champion" comes off to me as finding Revali as an equal rather than as a legendary hero. In other words, Teba and Revali are more alike, it's just that Teba has had time to settle down while Revali is still young and has more to learn, as both a person and as a warrior.

A point for Prince Sidon: Link has amnesia when he enters Zora’s domain and doesn’t initially remember Mipha at all. Instead he meets Sidon who’s so happy to see him and instantly latches onto him. It must have been odd and intimidating when he first met Doraphon and everyone was telling him how he was meant for Mipha, who at that stage he doesn’t remember.

I can't get behind Mipha because the game makes it clear she was an adult while Link was a kid and watched him grow up and helped care for him when he was a kid. and that's at best accidental grooming.

I like how Daruk instantly gets whats going on with mipha and link and acts as a wingman (or rather a rockman) for Mipha, also are we sure Mipha didn’t propose to link? We don’t see the end of their “conversation” in Mipha’s Touch, the armor itself is measured exactly to link so it would be hard for mipha to measure him unless he knew about it and we only get the cutscene when we have the armor while staring at Mipha’s statue.

41:02 that's my favorite cutscene in Age of calamity, Zelda is getting attacked, Teriko tries to save her and link just YEETS Teriko away. Absolutely hilarious

I'm late, but before finishing the video this is my thoughts: I have always loved Mipha, I found her to be a sweetheart and an incredibly selfless character. I think that if time did play out naturally she and Link would have been a lovely couple. However, since she died, I believe Mipha and Link would have both have had time to heal from the loss, and she would want him to be happy. I believe Link and Zelda end up together and love each other dearly, but Link never forgets his dear friend and first love, as well as Zelda missing her too. Mipha was very close to the both of them. I ship ZeLink in the manner that does not disrespect their late friend, but honors her memory while they remain happy. I like to think that, just like during her monologue, Mipha looks down upon them and feels joy, having had all that time to heal and come to terms I say this because a lot of times I've seen people interpret it as a Mipha vs Zelda competition for not just Link's love but his respect. And I really think it doesn't mean one or the other necessarily. God, I love these characters.

Thank you!!! yes!!! Im a HUGE botw/totk zelink shipper myself, but there's no denying that Link cared deeply for both of them. I don't see why it has to mean one way or the other. Since Link's relationship with both of the girls are so valid in their own ways, not to mention that it's definitely not a case of Zelda vs Mipha, since they are both friends too.

In AoC the Japanese phrasing of Links thoughts on the Zora armour parallels the Japanese phrasing of Miphas thoughts in her diary on her proposal. ‘Is it alright to accept this?’ and ‘Is it alright to give this?’. To me this indicates that the two are on the same wavelength, wanting to be with each other but ironically insecure as to whether they should or can be.

@@dugonman8360 Actually I'm very sure fictitious love stories don't lead by who is thiccer, so either Mipha or Zelda can be love interests for Link despite their different bodies. And I don't think in Hyrule, zoras or other races are seen like animals like our real life ideologies do. Anyway, if all these comments are just for fun let me tell you to stand behind Mipha's statue at zora's domain and you'll get a different way to think about Mipha ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

My personal interpretation: BotW and AoC are two parallel universes. In BotW Link has been known as the hero since he was 12, in AoC the kingdom never bloody figured it out until the calamity is at their doorstep. *This changes absolutely everything.* in botw's timeline, Link's early reveal as the hero thrusts him into a life of discipline and unwanted fame. He was a kid! He followed in his dad's footsteps and trained to be a knight like him, and he WAS exceptional, but he had no idea what the world's got in store for his ass. Him pulling out that sword at 12 didn't just get him into the military, it drew him away from travelling hyrule with his father (and thus straining his friendship with mipha) and probably exposes him to court life and life as a public figure in general. That is a LOT to put on a kid, and he shuts down over the years, going selectively mute. Thus, shared burden, yadda yadda, personal knight spends all his time with Zelda and seems to only ever opened up to her about his personal thoughts, died and came back to life a more talkative person (because memories are gone, yes this is in the masterworks) -> bam, "I wish to see her smile again with my own eyes" Meanwhile in AoC, he was just a knight. A very talented one yes, but one of many. The whole time, just living his life on track as he always thought it would. His dad was a knight, he trained to be a knight, and now there he was. Wondering where the hell the hero is like anyone else. This for one, gives him a few extra years with Mipha as he enlisted older (and got normal soldier duties and off days). As you said, Mipha seems more confident when interacting with Link in this game, too. So up until he pulled the master sword in this timeline he had absolutely no reason to hang around Zelda at all, and didn't share her great burden because he was literally some guy. She never initially resented him because well he never did anything wrong. Or anything at all. They're just immediately cool with each other. So yeah no trauma due to massive burden, no spending time with Zelda, no "oh shit I was being a jerk to him I will make up for it" + Mipha's friendship being more certain this time around -> "Mipha's figure is even more beautiful than usual." 'Nuff said. Funnily enough, the Pot Lid Incident that made Link the princess' personal knight is different, too. In botw she was watching regular guardian testing when they accidentally caused a malfunction and the guardian fired off. Link apparently took a pot lid and deflects the beam protecting Zelda, and this was so damn impressive the king was like "yeah okay you follow her around now". Meanwhile in AoC, he protected her while on duty from a genuinely malicious guardian. :p

One thing in Aoc that may hint at Link and Mipha getting together is that the second phase of the final boss theme is pretty much a rearrangement of Mipha's theme.

my theory is that link actually spent a lot of time in zora's domain with mipha between like 4-10 years old and then just stopped going for reasons (probably because he went to the junior knight academy or something like that - considering that he's like seventeen in BotW and he already had a lot of sword experience, i wouldn't be surprised if they started this early) and he didn't saw mipha until he was like 15 also that would explain his more serious personality after growing up, he's been in the military since he was around 10 and there is a lot of pressure around it so he probably changed because of it

I dunno why, but Riju just seems like a perfect little sister. As an only child, I have never truly gotten to experience a relationship with someone similar to that which siblings share, but Riju gives me an idea.

Riju is way too calm to be a good little sister.

I like how it’s canonically confirmed that Zelda loves link and that her love for him is what makes her power work

What about the memory in botw where Zelda is entrusting the master sword to the great deku tree? If the great deku tree didn't cut off her message to Link, I'm confident she would have said something like "tell Link I love him".

I really think the only trouble that stopped miphlink in BOTW was Mipha's death, as we know Link spent too much time with Zelda but that was mostly for his duty to protect her. Although, we know Link didn't have much free times but every time he had the chance he tried to visit Mipha voluntarilly, despite the times they had together was only few, those moments were special like the one where Link saved Mipha from a lynel and also not all Link's visits were mentioned at all like the ones about Kodah and others. Even Sidon conffesses that he was jealous of Link because he thought Link wanted to steal her sister and another zora says something similar that sometimes it appeared that Link wanted to steal Mipha, I still wonder how Mipha got the exact measurements of Link, in addition from the DLC, Mipha asks Link if he remembers what happened between them 100 years ago following by the question about if he knows why that zora armour fits him so perfectly, then she says there are a lot of things she wants him to remember but sadly those memories are gone of his mind, so I think they could easily be a couple before calamity. There are more details I can mention but I'm very sure that Link would accepted Mipha's proposal if she didn't died and now he barely remembers her. She was about to propose to Link after the calamity and I'm very sure they could be together as a couple if it wasn't by Ganon's fault..

I agree for the most part. Link and Mipha were still good friends in botw before she died, but I think the events led Link to grow away from Mipha while she was trying to hold on to him. It's truly sad, but I think Age of Calamity reverses that and made MiLink very likely.

@@undeadhoundoom3263 aoc development for Milink is the same from botw. Childhood friends, then obvious feelings. Both ships are strengthened by the aoc timeline changes. With Link being more open and not as silent, as well as Zelda being more open and not so jealous. Narrative development doesn't change what we already know however, Zelink can easily be platonic in both timelines. And Mipha has no reason not to propose to Link in aoc timeline. She was planning on doing it after the group visited the spring of wisdom, the day of calamity and zelda's birthday in botw timeline. Mipha most definitely would have proposed thanks to her survival in aoc timeline. Why would Link say no? Mipha is a childhood friend he deeply cares for that he will take any chance he can off duty to spend time with. Just for a romance with the princess that develops over a few months comparatively in a narrative about her unlocking her power which is triggered by love and care... why? It also makes Zelda look selfish and full of herself if you think she would get between them when Mipha just got there first. True love doesn't steal, it earns. There are plenty of fish in the sea and Zelink can be platonic just fine as well as Milink. No pun intended since you think liking fish people is so weird, even though the idea of mermaids have been existing forever. Zelink has worked countless times platonically with just as much power and success defeating ganon before. There is nothing that suggests their love and care has to be romantic in order for their power to be just as strong. I'm a major Zelink shipper. But c'mon, Mipha clearly put all her heart into into Link and sacrificed everything for him. And Link clearly cares for her. It's just a matter of fact that in aoc timeline Mipha would have gotten to him first with a sweet engagement. It would be a pretty sour if he just turned her down after them all almost getting killed and losing everything. Though if you want to believe Zelink simply has more chemistry and Link just has fallen in love with Zelda so much he just couldn't marry Mipha, so be it. I just don't see why their has to be a competition on Links heart like there "has" to be in the real world. People can love multiple people at once without it leading to cheating and complications. Link clearly loves both women and has the right to choose of course, but when you love two people, naturally your bound to pick the one who calls first unless polyamory is involved. .... Also how you got Undyne from Mipha is beyond me. The only thing they even have in common is they are both fish people and care a lot about the ones they love, those traits don't make people copies of each other.

We need to bring back friendship ships. I love the idea of link being like a big brother to Riju way more than I like their romance. And I love the idea of Sidon and Link being like brothers. Basically becoming brothers in law despite Mipha’s death

For the BotW one. I think it's a case that Mipha and Link were friends and there was affection there, but Link ended up distancing himself from Mipha. He still sees her as a friend, but he's too wrapped up in his own stuff to see her as more than that. For Zelda, she somehow slipped past his guard as he saw her as a kindred spirit.

As you said, Mipha dying was as definite as it can be. Before her death there's enough evidence to ship them, but alas her death is permanent in that timeline. I agree with all of that. However, I also think that part of what makes TLoZ so great is leaving plenty of space for people to fill gaps. For example using those alternative sidequests as "windows" to AU's, or figuring out actions that the characters probably did as narrated by NPC's (such as Sidon telling Link he stole Mipha). Great analysis. I do agree with you: No calamity = Link x Mipha. Calamity happened and so Mipha died= Link x Zelda. I do prefer Milink, but I prefer TLoZ style and leave the choice up to us.

They needed to tone her down a lot in order to balance things out. That fits perfectly with what you said about Mipha being too passive... it was on purpose. Mipha with the personality of Ruto would have make the ship with Link almost inevitable. And we know the big N doesn't like that on TLoZ. Which, to be honest, I'm glad they did. It makes Mipha more interesting

@@Zeldom All in all, even though I am a big Miphlink fan, I do prefer how things turned out in BoTW (well, I don't like Mipha's death, but that's what it is). Link's tragic life and his duties pushes him forward. He eventually remembers a big deal about her, but unfortunately forgot probably the most important "details" as she mentions in a dialogue. A childhood-lifetime friends that Link loses, is a trope present in TLoZ in the past... and it is normally important for Link's development. That was the case here too and I really enjoyed how they crafted their relationship. And of course, thanks for AoC where Mipha is alive and that relationship isn't impossible, so my headcannon stays the same haha

I think even in BotW Mipha and Link’s relationship was a bit more serious than you’re maybe implying. The Zora Armour may be just one piece of evidence but it’s some pretty big evidence of something fairly mutual I feel. You don’t generally prepare to propose to a crush

I truly hope you remember, if you do not… I suppose it cant be helped. As for me, I will never forget” so obviously SOMETHING regarding the zora armor that is given to a zora princesses future husband, not really saying if it is as a marriage proposal or as a wedding gift thing, which implies very strongly that link reciprocated her feelings towards him.

@@-letspretendidontexist-8479 point 3 can easily be disproven if they had not told anyone else, the zora for the most part were very racist to hylians. And “do you know why that zora armor fits you so perfectly” after asking about memories very much implies he had known something about the armor at the time. And telling him directly that they were dating is risking an overload of information. And why would something like that be added to the English version when the English version is known to hide any form of proof of shipping, they would more likely censor that than add it. Though I have no access to the Japanese version, I bet there is something that proves my point that at least link knew about her feelings for him.

I agree with you saying Zelda for Breath of the Wild and Mipha for Age of Calamity. Zelda was much closer with Link in Breath of the Wild due to bonding over the burdens that they both have been carrying for years, which was not present in Age of Calamity and it's why they don't feel quite as close in that game. Sure they're friends but I don't think their relationship could go beyond that in Age of Calamity without the development they had in Breath of the Wild. As you said, Link is more attentive of Mipha in Age of Calamity and Mipha's dialogues in missions with Link have more of a romantic tone compared to Zelda's. Another reason on why I say Mipha for Age of Calamity are Sidon and King Dorephan's respective dialogues to Link in Breath of the Wild: "Had things turned out differently, you might have been my sister's husband...my brother-in-law..." - Sidon "A Zora princess falling in love with a Hylian swordsman... It reminds me of a Zora legend of old. That is why I welcomed the idea of you and Mipha becoming husband and wife. It is a shame you two never had the chance to see what might have been..." - King Dorephan Maybe it's just me wanting Link and Mipha to be a thing in Age of Calamity since it couldn't happen in Breath of the Wild due to her death. Sidon and King Dorephan would also be happy to have Link be part of the family and Mipha deserves a happy ending.

I agree whole heartedly, plus in botw I noticed that unlike with the other memories he sees, links chosen memory of Mipha was one where they were together with her healing him and him, looking into her eyes as she surges that they spend some time together (quite a romantic scene) when it's all over, rather than talking about the war like the other characters, she talks about him, and it's all triggered, not by seeing an object or a place where the memory happened, but just by seeing her face in the form of her statue, and when the zora king, or Sidon, or even Mazu talks about his possible love or marriage to mipha, he makes no effort (in hand gestures or otherwise) to correct them of this. Plus when it comes to Zelda and Link I really don't see it, yes they clearly have a unique bond, but I more see that as the type of bond long lost siblings have when they reconnect again, which makes sence as their destiny's are so similar and they are both reincarnations of two people who have been closed throughout history. Not to mention the fact that they look so similar in appearance (in most reincarnations) that they could practically be twins. Seriously its kind of creepy Probibly another reason I don't ship Zelink? Or Linda?...😂Linda!!! 😂 How's that for a ship name

28:56 the Music for Divine beat Vah Ruta actually unlike it's other counter parts gets more ominous as the dungeon goes on. potentially symbolizing Mipha's anxiety that Link might be Killed by water blight, just like she was. or maybe anticipating link's reaction to her death. I'm pretty sure anyone dead would want to see the reaction of something they loved to their death. lol imagine if they didn't care about the dead person how heart breaking that'd be.

See this is one of the many reasons why I love AoC so much. Whether you declare it non-canon or just a new branching timeline, it did wonders for the relationship of Mipha and Link. I will concede Zelink in the BotW Timeline, but AoC? I will forever fight for Mipha as this game made me love her even more and just how damn cute she is and her relationship is to Link, and I honestly believe after the events of that game, she did propose to him. It'll never happen, but if a future game could follow up on this timeline and confirm that relationship, I will die happy.

Link and Ferb both have the greatest superpower of all time, the power of the unspoken rizz

54:00 he was looking at the group as a whole, he was looking straight ahead, he only started moving his head towards mipha's direction when Zelda strated moving, and as you can see he only looked at her as she moved to speak. As for the wide shot he still looks at Zelda as you can see he follows the same head movement as he did in the shot before.

A very interesting take on Link's potential love interests. :) When it comes to a triangular relationship, there are only two possible outcomes: either one of the protagonist's love interest is tossed under the bus (intentionally or unintentionally) or the protagonist refuses to commit to either one of them and moves on. (The latter outcome would be something loosely similar to the endings featured in the Conan the Barbarian series in which Conan ended up on his own. This is also a fairly common endings in many romance-related visual novels.)
