Something about Link taking an impulsive, unflattering selfie and sending it without a second thought just feels right.
The dry simple text, the awful selfie, random emotes. Its perfect, I'm so glad im not the only one who thinks so
definitely in character for the current botw/totk incarnation
totally agree
Honestly, that’s me too, though-
He can take selfies in battle with a Lynel, he'll be fine
Link smiling when he sees her message and then going completely neutral when he takes the selfie is perfect.
Then back to smiling right after too
He just locking in fr
It's a guy thing 😅
Its so funny😭
He's just like me fr
Link loosing the pen and just immediately accepting defeat is such a mood
*losing
@Hakoru Both of you just respect the others' beliefs, it's not that hard
hey man have some respect. I pray for you to have an encounter with him.@@Hakoru
@@Hakoru I hope you find Jesus someday cause you will regret it someday but you don’t have to if you don’t want too it’s your fate 😁😁
@@Cranberryy_ i wont regret it bc there is no "god" or "jesus'😂🤦
The most important part of this video is that Sidon is wearing crocs.
Seriously though, this animation feels like a warm hug. :D
Fish wearing crocs lol
the way link goes all stoic to take the photo before blushing and smiling again AAAAAA this is so good 🥹
It was so cute ahhhh 😭❤️
He stayed in character but maintained the feelings, I respect that
Being the schools star athlete he has a huge weight on his shoulders, lol.
He looks like roblox man face
The great part to me is that it also feels like a joking face you give a friend and I find myself doing that. Just walking and making the most serious face when I take a selfie.
link sending a selfie with a thumbs-up made me laugh out loud, he absolutely would do that!! the characterization is spot-on
It even got that slight blur due to the haste, very nice detail.
also the text messages felt very natural to me, i liked :-)
me too lol
ikr
The behavior is strangely on-brand for him.
This is so adorable! I love it!
I agree! I really liked the lab sequence, but I'm a suckered for Purah. What was your favorite part?
Scott Falco? Stimulating comment interaction for a Shar video?!
What a basedlord
oh hi scott :D
I can’t help but agree
I agree
2:30 i love the detail that link is happy but he act like « ok » when he take a picture
The art and animation style is peak. The way link just saw her and totally fumbled his pencil then blushes like a cutie is just hilarious and believable to me
V e r y p l e a s i n g
c o m m e n t .
- Z e l d a ‘ s p h o n e
k e y c h a i n .
Yeah
Cool
you just said the words from my mouth hahahaha
I love how when link just looked at zelda and dropped his pencil and was blushing so hard
the photo link sent zelda basically represents his nature as a simple creature
Literally the face just screams "No problem"
I was about to comment something about his photo, it’s the most “Link” photo I’ve ever seen lol
It is so absolutely Link it’s insane
😐👍
Your Zelda and Link are so cute!!
Realll
Hello Dangoheart! ❤️
You guys have a similar art style. I'd love to see a colab sone time.
I'm sensing (and hoping for) a collab! You're both wonderful artists!
*_Oh god..._*
I want to express how much I like the lack of dialogue. It really allows the animations and expressions to tell the story and how the characters are feeling. I adore that kind of thing
I feel bad for anyone who misses this because her content is top tier
Yesss
I agree 100%
Fr
Frr tho
Absolutely agree
I can't express how warm and happy Shar's Zelda animations make me.
Agreed!!
Same bro
Yes. They all give warm fuzzy feelings
its just so pure and wholesome :)
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
I'm so obsessed with the camerawork in this. It feels so intimate and artistic
It is. And the cinematography with the shakes and blurring of objects make it feel so real. It's an entire short film
Same!
I like how Link's stoic nature is shown even in his texts. They're quick, to the point and he uses emoticons instead of emojis.
Rewatching it and can we take a moment to appreciate the animation complexity of Link spinning the pen around in his hand!! I would be so confused trying to animate that!! 0:31
Its a smooth animation!
I struggle with even drawing hands
Hiiii
Just watched it in slow motion and the finger movements are perfect, amazing job oc
Wait…I know you…. 😧 but fr i can’t even do pen spinning irl 😭😭
She's doing a LOT of new things in this animation. It's encouraging to see another artist experimenting so successfully!
thank u for the kind words!!! 💖 i try my best to make each one better than the last!
@@sharyou’re doing amazing, these animations are genuinely amazing. They get better as you make them and they are always great to watch. Keep it up.
@@NaibSubedartruest words ever spoken
How adorable
@@shar but also don't let it become stressful!
The lil story detail of zelda being happy with the candy without even having tasted it is SO subtly telling that she truly treasures the gift deeper than the material value. Because its from Link. Love that storytelling ❤
Especially since when she tasted it she died lol xD
amen brother/sister@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist5
リンク、写真では真顔だけどその前後で笑顔抑えきれてないのめっちゃ可愛いな。すっぱくて悶えてるゼルダも可愛い。
I'm stuck somewhere between absolutely loving these animations and feeling extremely lonely because of them
Same. It's so wholesome is depressing.
Same.
ikr me and who
That means it’s working
Im stuck in between hating this comment and being physically sick from reading.
Just noticed that their old texts at 1:58 showing that it was actually Zelda that showed those candies to Link and that he bought them afterwards and gave one to her! So cute!
I think she was looking for a charm on her bag, not the candy, but since she liked the brand so much, Link got her the candy. A charming Chuchu seems like the name of a charm or keychain. Still cute though.
“Absolutely rotund” is freaking amazing! That is exactly the kind of message I would send to a friend
@@OctagonalSquare rotund is what me and my gf would call her fat cat lol
"rotund" peak
I don’t know why, there’s something so hypnotic about Link spinning the pen. I love no words are said, but the animation, emotions, and little noises are so expressive.
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
I'm sure it's really difficult matching the real-life hand movements to animation as well, it's so impressive!
"Show don't tell" is very powerful.
reminded me of that scene in death note where light is spinning his pen lol
We need a chill tunes to study and relax to but it’s link spinning the pen as the looping animation
I've rewatched these animations a dozen times and they never fail to make my heart flutter!
The little things like the few frames of texts between the two of them talking about chuchus being cute, and Link giving Zelda a chuchu candy cause of it are such cute details!
+.
Absolutely rotund.
I was looking for this comment. It's adorable.
I tried to look up the url.
Didn't pan out.
Wholesome ❤
that pencil spinning was so fricking smooth your animating is my drive to live for another day
it was really well animated too, looks exactly like irl
I know were gushing over how cute the animation is, but can we give props to Axl, the musician? He did a really great job with the music.
nah it was kinda boring and barebones
I would love to just have the music for each of the installments
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
i love the relaxing that is his music
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
To those who are wondering, the book at 1:00 says: Voe and you
The little micro expressions in this one are so good!!! I love seeing those tiny gestures people do that often get lost in animation get a spotlight like this! They're so cute I could die 😭
shar captures the sheer *vibes* of Link and Zelda SO well and if they ever did an animated show this is exactly the feel I would want
It's amazing how you don't need a full show to understand these characters. Maybe it's just because we're already familiar with them, but I don't think so---I think Shar's animations are always just so expressive and heartfelt and fun. She can do in minutes what some full-length romcoms take full seasons to do, and I think that's incredible.
It’s like primal by genndy tartakovsky but more wholesome
I think part of that is not just that we're familiar with these characters, but that we're familiar with Shar's versions at this point since she's been animating them for so long. We've been drip fed these characters and it's made them feel so much more real since experiencing something over a longer period of time makes the story in it feel longer
I mean, sure it’s “Zelda and Link” but like how there are different versions of the pair for different games, I think this pair is separate (obviously because they are in high school) and I think we know what we know about the because of shar’s excellent animation skills!
I’ve never played a game in this series and I don’t know the story, but I feel the same way!
That might be because of tropes. We have seen characters get flustered and panic (as well as people) when they see their crush. We see friends and siblings annoy each other. We do text messages.
She only needs to vaguely gesture at everything for us to understand exactly what is going on
AWWW AT THE END HE WAS ACTING UNBOTHERED IN THE PHOTO BUT WAS BLUSHING BEFORE AND AFTER
I LOVE IT
Hi Etho! I like your videos too!
ETHO??/
Etho! hello man
Why so many famous people here
I can’t with this. The attention to detail, the movements, the b l u s h e s…I’m dead. It’s perfect. ❤
This comment is crazy
Stop being dead then
SO CUTE! I'm in love with the character acting. Their subtle expressions and little gestures really sell it for me!
Great job Shar!
THE WOLF LINK PEN 0:49
I saw your comment as soon as it showed up lol
💍💍💍
You really nailed that nervous kind smile at 0:43
ugh shar is so good at animating small facial features that really make a scene. I can tell Link is falling hard at the last shot with his little smirk as he runs off 😭
I can't describe how happy this whole video made me
FR 🥹
You just did 🤭
I feel the same 🥰
Same it is cool see that there is other people enjoying this
The entire animation is amazing, but the end where Zelda just dies cos it was unexpectedly sour is hilarious.
They are so simple, but her animations feel like they warm the soul
The adorable animation style gets me everytime. So romantic, yet calm.
rewatching it and i love the little details like them talking about chuchu's in the chat earlier your honor i love them so much
I came to comment exactly on this
the tbh creture .... !!!!
link’s voice actor did such a good job🔥🔥🔥
once again you made perfection
watching this animation feels like drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows in a fluffy blanket if that makes sense?? its super cute :>
Just say it feels cozy and warm...
@@Emma-Mazenah i prefer their description
@@Emma-Maze Their description said the exact same thing but in a way more fun and sensory way
On a summer day?
@@swordzanderson5352 whats that supposed to mean :)
Your animations are so innocent and it feels good watching them.
They are like watching the most wholesome and good parts of life, and I think that's what makes it good in this world full of drama and politics
It's very nice watching your content, thank you so much.
Please keep up the good work, you have a lot of talent and heart
I love how you added tears when link was yawning it’s so accurate 😂
I know it happens to me in class
I can see Tulin appearing and I'm already happy. Joking aside, this will be amazing as always!
I think that might be Teba from BotW 😅
@@animoowoman I keep my hopes up
It's definitely Teba! The timeline is a little funky, since we see young Robbie and Purah though so it could be older Tulin for all we know haha
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
It's Revali for sure - they're the OG champions in this universe(ity)
I literally need an hour of this. I'm obsessed with your art style and zelink is literally my life lol. I can research these all day and never be bored of them I swear.
Rewatch*** 😭 not research
@@SophiePowell-ms1yj lol important correction there :)
Omg wait I didn't even realize how many likes this comment had. It might not seem like a lot for most people, but I've never gotten these many and it actually made me smile, tysm everyone :))
There's always something that's so cozy about the way you animate two characters interracting, these 2 especially. I hope life goes easier on you going forward.
LINK'S LITTLE SMILE AND BLUSHING AT THE END AAAAA IT'S TOO CUTE
I am officially so invested in this AU I made a playlist putting them in (what I feel might be?) kinda chronological order based on the events. IT'S JUST SO CUTE I COULD DIE! Also I really love the Wolf Link sticker designs SO much I wish they were real TT^TT
They are real! I had them a long time ago but I don't remember where I got them :(
@@wheresmyspegitprettig sure they are in the description of the video that shows the stickers
The stickers are in the link to her texting video. Hope this helps ☺️
Watching this live is an engaging change.
Everyone reacting to the cute at the same time is choice.

my heart cant handle shar's zelink animations- everything is so well made :"D
自撮りで返信した時が可愛すぎてふっと笑ちゃった🥺
This is so amazing AAAAAAAA! Very much well worth the wait! I really love all the little details ya put into all this! The pen twirling, the quiet entering of the lecture hall, tossing the stuff on the bed before laying down, It makes it all feel so realistic despite being cute and cartoony :3 Also, the link thumbs-up selfie KILLED me XD You're so talented and awesome, look forward to seeing more in the future!
Absolutely love how, instead of automatically eating it, Zelda studies the candy, which fits her character so well!
Wow! It really is a talent to be able to convey so much without the need for spoken dialogue. Thank you for all the effort you've poured into this, it shows!
I am so in love with your animations, they convey so much emotions with just the perfect amount of Link's and Zelda's little humms and other noises, so peaceful and calm ahhh just adorable really
This was so cute, so fluid, and the body language was perfect; didn't need any words to still have dialogue (other than the cute texting of course 😊) The payoff of the wait was everything and more!!
You need to make this a whole series. Absolutely phenomenal, I would watch a whole tv show of this.
So would I. Its incredible animation.
i would blush and gigle so awkwardly i need that
AHHHH SHAR THAT WAS FANTASTIC! God I love these guys so much! The way you animate these guys and the little nuances of how they interact just warms my heart so much. These stories you tell with them are so comforting and cozy, and I adore them! You’re doing amazing!
Oh hey! It's the guy who said that nobody plays DnD!
jk
リンクがゼルダのペンをちょっと使ってからちらっと見て、可愛いなみたいな顔して笑うのが好き
とっても可愛い
Words can't express how happy I feel watching this
I LOVE his expression shifting to be all stoic before blushing like crazy at the end thats so cuteee!!! I love your work sm youre genuinely so inspiring to me as an artist
I absolutely love the fine details you added with the subtle background noises. It's immersive and makes you feel really cozy when you watch it
omg this is just too cute! ^^ I love it
Ahh!! It's so cute, beautiful, and amazing!! The expressions, the animation, it's all so good! 🥹💖💕
2:06 burst out laughing because this is exactly how I respond to all my texts
same lmao
絵柄がめちゃくちゃ可愛くて、アニメーションもスムーズで、シチュエーションもかわいらしくてキュンとするからすごく好き🥰
I could watch a whole show of just this
This is one of the most precious things I've seen. ugh Shar thank you so much for taking the time to animate this and then sharing it with the rest of us. I absolutely love your style. It's so calming and smooth and makes me want to smile. Watching ur animations is like snuggling in bed with a warm fuzzy blanket.
This is gonna be good!! Shar’s animations are always so smooth and amazing! 🩵
edit - just finished watching it! that was very cute and wholesome! :D
this is one of my favorite animations shar has done!
Another beautifully wholesome and gentle animation with music to match. What else can be said? This is the animated equivalent of a warm hug 🫂
2:05 called me out unintentionally. I too send the thumbs up pics like that to basically everyone.
I love that the speechless gives more context and emotion than if everything was narrated
HELP they're so cute T^T. I love the difference in their texting styles and that panel with SOUR in it, the text is so nice! Ugh my eyes have been blessed
Damn, this must've taken a ages to do. The fluidness of every movement and all the little details 👌
I love the sour candy. That absolutetly tracks. There's the tart uncertainty, the sweet resolution and then... sour. Because, of course.
Loved the Wolf Link pen and the Chuchu candy! Great work as always Shar :)
1:58 Ahh what I think is EXTRA adorable added onto this WHOLESOME cake of a video is how Zelda showed Link the Chuchu candies and how he thought to get her one to show he genuinely paid attention to what she likes!! 🥹🫶
i actually punched the url in my browser and it took me too some strange site check it out
That slide in with the camera at the beginning is so good it's killing me, I rewatched it like 10 times. The realistic movements are also love, like when she gets on her bed and when she does the little leg cross. They're so uniquely human feeling! I love it! So much dedication to pushing yourself and your work, it's amazing.
I love the concept of a came world being translated into a realistic world with all the iconography being brands
I love how much details Shar has put into the video.
Especially at 1:58 min-you can see the previous chat of Link and Zelda, they're talking about these Chuchu things that she mentioned and now in class, Link gives her a Chuchu themed candy!! ISN'T THAT JUST SO CUTE PLS-
Yeah, it is
The hand animation for link at the beginning with the pencil was so cool!! Everything was so beautifully done 💙
Only these Zelda AU videos have ever made me audibly go “awww” out of sheer cuteness. You do wonderful work!
The part about your animations that don't get enough talk is the music. It blends BOTW with everyday life so well.
Shar sounding like a deity of wholesomeness. 🙏 Thank you Shar!
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
At 1:58 you can see that Zelda mentioned about how cute chuchu merchandise was, which makes the fact that Link gave Zelda a chuchu candy even more wholesome. :) The attention to detail in all of shar's animations is amazing!!
This is so wholesome. The fact you made this all by yourself is nothing short of impressive!
I want a "modern" setting game so bad! Look at this, this is adorable!
Zelda and Link go to school, ganon is the principal.
No words can describe how beautiful and amazingly animated this is! ☺️
Every Zelink animation makes me so happy. Thank you for making my day!
One funny thing I've noticed about Shar's Zelda cartoons is that Shar seemingly makes Zelda's eyebrows slightly larger in every cartoon. 😄 Keep up al the good work Shar! 💜
Markiscammer's niece funeral was used for a scam 😂 my videos are better 🔥
How did u see this seven hours ago it came out an hour ago💀💀💀💀
@@Skinwalkerhunter69 Shar uploaded a teaser trailer for this animation a couple of days ago.
I sooooooo need a modern zelda game with moments like this
I have been waiting for this!!! SHAR IS EASILY my favorite animator, her style is so iconic. Definitely an inspiration for me, thanks shar!
Keep on the amazing work!
The fact that I’ve actually pulled this sour candy trick on a girl I liked makes this so great. That hit me hard when sour popped up. Keep up with the awesome content!
this was adorable and definetly seemed in line with how those two would act around each other if they were in our world
