Agreed. She doesn’t always get credit where it’s due. Saria got me through my life’s rough spots and became my reason for getting up in the morning when I was at my lowest.
I think they do kinda mention that at the end of OOT. Since Zelda felt guilty of feeling like Links like was stolen from him and why she wanted to return him back to when he was a kid. So he could live his life fully.
@@vegeta2998 which didn't end up working because she sent him back to a time where Ganon was still around and then Navi left and then Majora's mask happened
@@almessasorrow4950well, when she sent him back in time, he stopped Ganondorf before he could even take over. It’s just that because his adventure was over, Navi left, likely to die as that’s what happens to fairies who have finished their mission from the Great Deku Tree. Link then grows up with no one knowing of all the good he did and the lives he saved
I really loved Saria :") and I felt so bad when I left her behind to save Hyrule , she was the only true friend in his childhood who cared about him and appreciate his existence as equal or more. She is still with him, inside his heart and memories ❤
The girl named Malon--his wife--also helped 'cuz she was there. She was there as his safe place. She learned Epona's Song from her mom, an' then she sang it. Mama passed it on ta Malon, so she could pass it on to their son (Twilight Princess Link) if she lived long enough, or let HIM pass it on. Maybe that's why he could play it so sweetly in the way that Ilia couldn't. Zelda was the best friend who became the next queen of Hyrule, Malon was the friend who was a kid with humble beginnin's like the boy raised in the forest. He was a boy who was born to the commoners who served the Royal Family as guardians (so his common rank wouldn't get in the way o' their bond). He didn't belong in nobility OR royalty, an' neither did BotW Link (Kass was sayin' "neither nobility nor royalty", so I know that he was a commoner). Both ended up bein' born to the commoners who served as Royal Guards in their eras (so maybe a suburban settin' fer BotW Link could fit 'cuz he was confirmed ta really be a commoner). The Link who was the Cap'n of the Princess's Guard was a common boy, not an aristocrat. He was a commoner who became a knight, not nobility (so he became a knight the hard way by destroyin' the Guardian with a simple pot lid when he reflected its beam back at it with a parry, which ended its rampage ta rescue those threatened by it). Link was the kinda guy who fell in love with Princess Zelda. She was also the kinda gal who fell in love with a commoner like him (makin' her the Uptown Girl 'cuz o' that affection fer the commoner), so the feelin's mutual. In the French version, Kass also says that they'll rule Hyrule together, with Link bein' the commoner who'll be her hubby and the first king consort in many years (with Kass's hint in the French version) if they survive the battle with Ganondorf (in the sequel). Or prince consort who's by her side when she rules as queen (but still her spouse).
God this is toucheable... Link turned into and adult but his soul remains as a kid. Everything was so dificult for him at a young age. Loosing friends a people he cared so much. This is amazing. Ocarina of time has an important room in my heart. Im almost 30 years old and i love every single note of Minuet of Forest. For us it was not only a game. It was one of the best stories ever created. Thankyou so much koji kondo. Saria and the others wanted to have a normal life. But they lived for everyone. Especially link. Even for hyrule... even for termina.
5 hours? as kid Link i got the heartcontainer from my first fish, and the golden scale after about 30 minutes of fishing as adult Link. Not really any point in fishing any more after that is it?
@Official_TLoZ Master Stacey True, but for me the N64 version was where I was formally introduced to Link and the land of Hyrule. I want to see it the way I used to when I was nine years old, after all...
Quarren Everett it’s fine you don’t know :P Later on in the game you must go into the lost woods and figure out Saria’s favorite spot. Then you learn her song which she can speak through you with the song. Later on Saria becomes a sage in the adult era.
As I got older I really started to connect with Link in this moment. Once I started getting into being a pilot and making friends with other pilots the inevitable happened with fatal accidents. Though flying is incredibly safe, accidents happen. I've lost many friends over the last decade since I made my first pilot friend and became one myself. My heart is full of memories of laughter and fun with those men and women. Their loss breaks my heart every time though as Sheik said I remind myself of this: "How would they feel seeing me unhappy like this?" They would rather I continue living my life to the fullest. To spread the joy and happiness that comes with the freedom of flight. One day we'll all be reunited but until then I also remember Saria's words: "Home is never far away when you have happy memories" Returning to the skies I return home in two ways, in one to the place we all felt at home and in the other way to the happy memories made in the skies with them. The silly radio calls, hand signals and just plain shenanigans that I'll never forget and will always make me smile. Thanks MajorLink
Letting go of the past is hard especially with happy memories you want to relive. However you must let go to see the future. People who have had hard times in their lives always want to go back in time to be happy again. Leaving the memory in the past can help you see a brighter path to happiness. This video demomstrates that flawlessly.
"I... Thank you for rescuing me. Ganondorf's power has grown to terrible levels over these last 7 years. As the Hero of Time, you must move forward. As a sage, I must also accept this. You are not the reckless little boy I once knew back in Kokiri Forest. You're a grown man... as well as a Hylian. I could tell. You were always different from the rest of the Kokiri, but I was a friend when no one else was. I always had your back, and today you had mine. Keep going Link. Five more sages remain in temples, and the last will reveal herself when the time comes. You will always be with me, Link." *LIGHT FADES* "Saria... Thanks."
You got me really good with it and probably many other ppl. We played this game while we were kids and you managed to let us see a side of Link the game did not show. Now I am a grown up man, a soldier and saw how cruel humans can be. I can partially understand how Link must have felt while fighting for others. To understand my words I decided to update this comment. Before the army my partner visited me and said: "I will see you later" After those words I found out that my girlfriend and two good friends died in an car accident. The words you used: "She meant a lot to you. How would she feel seeing you like that?" Broke me. Made me think about the past and the good things I had. The good things I have done... and the pain I have hidden for the sake of my family. I thank you for making me smile and making me shead tears not because I was sad but because of the good memories you have reawakened in me. About the game and about my life. You are truly an artist. UPDATE: Thank you for all the comments below. It has been a while since I cried not out of sadness but out of joy. Even a small amount of gratitude can help a lot.
I got teary eyed when Link was looking over that stump. Those were his easy days for him as a little innocent child. And then when Sheik said to Link, "How would she feel seeing you unhappy like this?" That was heartbreaking. Thank you for another amazing animation❤
worse when you recall that he immediately went to find and eventually lose Navi in another parallel universe; even more so if you believe that knowing who and what he was in the future, Link could barely fit back in with the Kokiri, let alone with other Hylians outside the forest. he was out of place both within the society he grew up with and the society that existed beyond it.
When you remember the first time you played this series and fell madly in love with it and it brings back nostalgia... Good and sad times....😣😭 R.I.P good times.
PERSONALLY IF I HAD ACCESS TO DESIGN AND MAKE VIDEOS EXACTLY LIKE THIS I WOULD HAVE CHALLENGE MY SELF AND MAKE 1,000 VIDEOS OF TEARS, SORROW, REDEMPTION, HORROR, SUSPENSE AND ALL THE GENRE'S EVEN SOME RDGAR ALLEN POE DARKNESS. WITH AVENGERS MEMES AND HUMOR. BUT I SUCK I COMPUTERS BADLY.
I love how you make Link feel so human. I really do like it when Link is more expressive and you have nailed that down. Keep up amazing work like always. Also OoT anime/movie or naw lol
This really is the biggest missed opportunity of the Zelda games. The silent protagonist helps to project too but there is alot of missed potential for developing Link, even a customized one. I hope one day we can have a more Commander Shepard or Joker style Link. Still able to project onto but is still a believable character and not a puppet.
@@INFERNO95 I mean if people are that stubborn, the Zelda team should just give players the option to choose a silent or voiced Link. I mean there are plenty of choices still not given to us players yet: basic button mapping, gender selection (Pokemon has done this ages ago, what is taking LoZ so long), a voiceless option for every character (for purists; not me), etc. It's actually kinda surprising how innovative BotW was to the Zelda series but how some basic functions haven't been thought of yet. They seem like a lot of unnecessary fluff for a Zelda game at first, but you only start to see that they are missing when you play other similar games.
@@CJSai64 I don't want voiced Link (a learnt lesson from the LoZ anime) OR ANY FEMALE Link/Linkle (and more trap Link porns? No, thank you) but more a expressive Link? Yes. (The expressive-less BOTW Link makes me laugh many times during the cut scene, it supposes to be sad.)
@@j.d.4241 There is no Zelda anime. Excuuuuse me! We need female Link, screw your closeminded opinion based on strange priorities about an internet occurence that happens anyway with ANYTHING to the point that the rule named for it, is an entire website. Like, wow. Let's not let female Zelda players (of which there is countless) project with a female version of Link, like they've had with Shepard, Pokemon Trainers, and Fire Emblem protags. Let's NOT allow for refreshing experiences. After all, the fact that Link is a boy has always been plot relevant, right? No, of course not. Zelda games have never even had romances w/ Link, and if you think that it mattered that he was a guy just because female characters hit on him, then that just says more about you. Zelda is such a malleable series (where canon hardly matters anymore) and Link is very representative of that. If he's gonna keep being mute, he might as well have basic customization ala Pokemon and Fire Emblem. Options in an RPG make them funner, every time.
Dude I love how little to no music affects literally like the whole episode. I also love how sheik is telling Link advice to move on and think about his feelings.
The hero of time is simply proof that no one should ever wish to be a hero, the burden on your shoulders, knowing everyone is counting on you to succeed, not having the option of failing and most of all, the several loved ones/friends the hero will inevitably lose
I was literally crying with joy. It's so sad, so powerful, so emotional, you definitely did a fantastic job! Your videos feel more realistic, these kinds of events in my opinion should have been shown in the game. Would have added more character, and more depth to the story. Good job 🙂
OOT brought me and my brother together for years. I always watched him play it. Now he's just a shadow of who he once was. He is schizophrenic. Makes me cry, never forget the past. It helps you keep moving forward.❤
Your animation has seriously improved so much even since Twilights Shadow it has gotten so good. Your expressions are on point, and the animation is just so beautiful.
Rick James That comment was not relevant and frankly it was very rude, especially coming from someone without a profile pic at all. Maybe I just like Zelda, and you can keep your opinion to yourself.
Another great masterpiece, Major Link! Link really missed Saria, and Sheik knew how he felt. Link's flashbacks of him and Saria playing together were super cute, and the scene where Link and Sheik played the Minuet of the Forest was just gorgeous! Keep up the good work! 👸💗💟🌹💐🌸🎀🐱🦄🍰
This part of the game was always super memorable to me and you just made it a million times better. Your Zelda animations are by far the best and Nintendo needs to hire you lol. Everything was perfect, Shiek's dialogue, Link's facial expressions and body language, and the bits with Young Link were fantastic! Keep it up MajorLink, we love you!
Your gift of cinematography is appreciated. I love how Link sees the spot where Saria sat and remembers their last meeting seven years ago when Link learned her song. It's also a bit tragic because, from Link's perspective, he saw Saria a little while ago before being put to sleep for seven years. I love how you portrayed Sheik as a warrior similar to the artwork of the game rather than a character who pops in and out of the scene. Sheik testing Link by attacking him is a good way to train Link now that he is an adult. Despite her harshness, Sheik still offers Link some council. From the way Link smiles, he got back the determination to fight. The animation for Link and Sheik playing their instruments was great. I never saw Link use his fingers in the ocarina until now. I look forward to all of the Sheik encounters.
Hey another cool video!!! *Saw sheik and said “you’re slow”* Dangit I forgot about that at first in the temple of time Sheik said “much faster than before”.... Your animations are getting better Major Link I hope you do more videos and we will support you!
I love Saria so much and this animation makes me feel so many things, I wish more people would do things with Saria and I hope you keep doing this for a long time.
Sariah is my favorite character. So little screen time. But you couldn't do a thing without her in the first place. I cried a bit. Not gonna lie. Amazing as always Major
I'd like to think Link was stuck behind the Door of Time when he returned to his child self at the end of the game. He pulls out Saria's ocarina and finds that playing Minuet of Forest teleported him to her favourite tree stump. She was still a sage after all. Link told her about everything that had happened and they parted ways again for Link to speak with Darunia, King Zora and Zelda about Ganondorf before he ever arrives, but not before playing music together long into the night. Losing your best friend is indeed like looking at a tree stump; you can see the rings of their life up until the point it was cruelly cut away, but as Shiek reminded Link, their spirit will always be within you.
This is such a beautiful reimagining of that scene. I'm late to the zelda fandom and haven't played oot myself but i've seen the OG scene this came from and wow... this short fills in so many holes - very cinematic. i adore it so much, thank you
The first half of this really made me tear up. I always thought Saria and Link's friendship was such an emotional part of the game. :) Thanks for making this!
i seen the notification and i was like 'i'm ready for more heartbreak' and you delievered. major link, the real mvp, always delivering quality Zelda content. can't wait to see what you'll give us next! keep working hard :^D
This is an emotional video for me. The day I saw it my friend told me that he and a girl who I have loved for 3 years, are now a couple. That day I felt like Link, trying to move forward with my life, to let go someone I cared about. Luck was by myside, and I found out that it was just a cruel April fools joke. Me and her are now together for 4 months. But I will never forget that feeling, and how much influence this video had on me. Thank you, MajorLink!
These animations give these characters so much more life/dimension. The original games gave the same subtext, but with this style of animation, the facial expressions, and the way that they move, it really gives it just so much more emotion. As a newfound fan of these videos, I will keep wishing for their continued success.
A song is a memory that plays in your head constantly, and when you listen closely, everything comes flooding back. I remember when I played OOT on my 3ds for the first time. I played the original, and the good memories and soundtrack made me feel nostalgic. OOT was a masterpiece... Truly a split in the multiverse, and a Link to the past...
Got goosebumps watching this. The Zelda series, is without a doubt, more than just a game. The adventures and characters you meet, stay with you long after the game is over. That is what makes this series truly unique. You don’t just play these games. You experience them.
I have chills and butterflies. Absolutely stunning work. I love the detail put into the expressions, sound, and small movements. You really gave Link extra character which I love. Keep up the awesome work. ~Joslyn
Fantastic! It's awesome how you add emotion to these scenes, like seriously Nintendo should hire you! The detail of Sheik's facial expression at 4:14 really got to me too!
I think it is something like waking up... something we all experience eventually... It all depends if we let it touch our emotions. I returned to a place of my childhood in a city I no longer live in. This video has a lot of that emotion. You remember things and it brings you back.
These animations make me so emotional. I love them, and it really gives me a deeper love and understanding for Link, especially in ocarina of time and majoras mask.
I would love to see this in a movie, like all the scenes you made and more wrapped up in one video. That would be amazing. Even the weird scenes; like the owl babbling, or coming across an enemy, opening the mini-boss weapon chest, any fighting scene, you die and fairy brings you back to life. All the struggles we all go through and relate on. For example, trying to jump on a ledge three times (or more) in a row and falling all of those times (usually off of high places for me cause that's where my clumsiness really starts to kick in). Whether it's a movie or just a few clips here and there, I'd be happy either way. So _thank you_ for making these videos.
Think how hard it is for this Link. He had to leave everything he knew behind to save the entire world, entering the world at such a young age is already really difficult, but he literally and metaphorically had to grow up very fast.
Wow. Just wow. Amazing, I never thought that someone could make such an amazing animation. I'm sure that a large portion of people who grew up playing zelda felt this in their heart's as we are all grown now, however if you did not play the game as a child it still conveys a message. I loved it, made me cry and think about my past as well.
I love how amazing your animations are! It’s a really good look at the characters and how they act! Plus, I loved how it feels like and almost remaster of the original games scene but with more story behind Link.
Wow that was really beautiful! It was a great way to show how strong the relationship is between Saria and Link! Your animation in those videos are truly wonderful and as a hardcore Zeldafan I can tell that you really put a lot of love and detail from these memorable zelda-moments in your videos, which makes me really happy to see. 😊 You are awesome and keep up the good work! 😄
How could nearly 400 people dislike this? It was beautiful. I may be a year late but you've got a new subscriber just because I love this so much. That game was the game that turned me into a gamer and also was the beginning of my lifelong love for fantasy adventure rpg games. I just recently bought a nintendo 2ds xl specifically for that game and Majoras Mask just so I could have them again. Thank you for making this.
Major Link siempre con vídeos tan emotivos, le das ese lado dulce a Link. Eres lo máximo aun tengo el vídeo de Link y navi cada vídeo es único te felicito por tu gran trabajo
I've only lived 29 small years but I've seen more than 18 friends and family pass away in my life, it's kind of miserable carrying on with so many ghosts in your head. This was a good video.
I love that the “stairs” are still a ramp with a texture.
I Will coment The same thing
Lmafooooooooooooooooooooooo
that’s exactly what I was about to say xD
I love how the stump is still glorified cinnamon roll
😂
I felt so sad when the flashback abruptly stopped and revealed Link just standing over the stump. It was so real and amazing.
We’ve all had people in our lives like that. Hit me in the feels.
Sad feels increased by 99%
Inga tu ma
And Link didn't even ask for the responsibility of being the hero. Missed out on a lot.
Yeah got so caught up on young link and saria and then BAM it was just all gone...kinda like how thinking about the past can feel like
Saria doesn't get enough love, she's really the only character who's established to be best friends with Link since they were little.
In some versions I believe Zelda was a childhood friend
Agreed. She doesn’t always get credit where it’s due. Saria got me through my life’s rough spots and became my reason for getting up in the morning when I was at my lowest.
What about Ilia from Twilight Princess?
Zelda in Skyward Sword?
Funfact: shes over 30
Sheik: "Yout must let go of the past."
Also Sheik: "If you wish to return here... Play this."
Doesn't mean you can't grieve for them.
Also Zelda: Go back to the past to relive your childhood
@@Wizardof52grieving is the most important part of healing

The words you used: "She meant a lot to you. How would she feel seeing you like that?" Broke me. Made me think about the past and the good things I had. The good things I have done... and the pain I have hidden for the sake of my family.
I thank you for making me smile and making me shead tears not because I was sad but because of the good memories you have reawakened in me. About the game and about my life. You are truly an artist.
UPDATE: Thank you for all the comments below. It has been a while since I cried not out of sadness but out of joy. Even a small amount of gratitude can help a lot.
That's a god commentary friend it recovered to me my memories of the game and of all my life
I.... Quit Zelda.... For a long~~ Time .... I wish I never did...... Thanks for showing me that..... 🙂
A soldiers from where?
hey,idk if there r any Christians seeing this but if so at the least just always remember ur never alone and that u should thank God 4 everything
dagamer mrk Amen
I got teary eyed when Link was looking over that stump. Those were his easy days for him as a little innocent child. And then when Sheik said to Link, "How would she feel seeing you unhappy like this?" That was heartbreaking. Thank you for another amazing animation❤
He was suspended for 7 years so he litteraly remembers it like it was yesterday
Sheik is Zelda rite
worse when you recall that he immediately went to find and eventually lose Navi in another parallel universe; even more so if you believe that knowing who and what he was in the future, Link could barely fit back in with the Kokiri, let alone with other Hylians outside the forest. he was out of place both within the society he grew up with and the society that existed beyond it.
Wow i was literally watching your older videos last night thinking "cant wait for the next one" and here you are giving me this masterpiece
SkyLine 16 same. I was about to type that
Aren't the facial expressions just amazing? It's amazing how it really shows the emotions.
@@bagelboy9003 yeah i know. As a huge zelda fan i'm glad i found this channel
When you remember the first time you played this series and fell madly in love with it and it brings back nostalgia...
Good and sad times....😣😭 R.I.P good times.
A Nintendo 64 is never far away when you have happy memories...
I was crying but the way Sheik's arm moved to play the instrument caught me off guard
This was beautiful. I really think you captured what Link would have been feeling in that moment. Excellent job!
This Link has the saddest Destiny, and the saddest Zelda story ever told.
PERSONALLY IF I HAD ACCESS TO DESIGN AND MAKE VIDEOS EXACTLY LIKE THIS I WOULD HAVE CHALLENGE MY SELF AND MAKE 1,000 VIDEOS OF TEARS, SORROW, REDEMPTION, HORROR, SUSPENSE AND ALL THE GENRE'S EVEN SOME RDGAR ALLEN POE DARKNESS. WITH AVENGERS MEMES AND HUMOR. BUT I SUCK I COMPUTERS BADLY.
Yeah but In the actual game he just stands there like a doofus
Eres ral
I love how you make Link feel so human. I really do like it when Link is more expressive and you have nailed that down. Keep up amazing work like always. Also OoT anime/movie or naw lol
This really is the biggest missed opportunity of the Zelda games. The silent protagonist helps to project too but there is alot of missed potential for developing Link, even a customized one.
I hope one day we can have a more Commander Shepard or Joker style Link. Still able to project onto but is still a believable character and not a puppet.
CJSai#64 Nintendo need to do more with link character in future games. This silence hero thing is not helping him, instead it only holding him back.
@@INFERNO95 I mean if people are that stubborn, the Zelda team should just give players the option to choose a silent or voiced Link.
I mean there are plenty of choices still not given to us players yet: basic button mapping, gender selection (Pokemon has done this ages ago, what is taking LoZ so long), a voiceless option for every character (for purists; not me), etc.
It's actually kinda surprising how innovative BotW was to the Zelda series but how some basic functions haven't been thought of yet. They seem like a lot of unnecessary fluff for a Zelda game at first, but you only start to see that they are missing when you play other similar games.
@@CJSai64 I don't want voiced Link (a learnt lesson from the LoZ anime) OR ANY FEMALE Link/Linkle (and more trap Link porns? No, thank you) but more a expressive Link? Yes. (The expressive-less BOTW Link makes me laugh many times during the cut scene, it supposes to be sad.)
@@j.d.4241 There is no Zelda anime. Excuuuuse me!
We need female Link, screw your closeminded opinion based on strange priorities about an internet occurence that happens anyway with ANYTHING to the point that the rule named for it, is an entire website. Like, wow. Let's not let female Zelda players (of which there is countless) project with a female version of Link, like they've had with Shepard, Pokemon Trainers, and Fire Emblem protags. Let's NOT allow for refreshing experiences.
After all, the fact that Link is a boy has always been plot relevant, right? No, of course not. Zelda games have never even had romances w/ Link, and if you think that it mattered that he was a guy just because female characters hit on him, then that just says more about you.
Zelda is such a malleable series (where canon hardly matters anymore) and Link is very representative of that. If he's gonna keep being mute, he might as well have basic customization ala Pokemon and Fire Emblem. Options in an RPG make them funner, every time.
As a hardcore zelda fan it is always fun seeing your work. Thank you @MajorLink
Dude I love how little to no music affects literally like the whole episode. I also love how sheik is telling Link advice to move on and think about his feelings.
The hero of time is simply proof that no one should ever wish to be a hero, the burden on your shoulders, knowing everyone is counting on you to succeed, not having the option of failing and most of all, the several loved ones/friends the hero will inevitably lose
Once a masterpiece, always a masterpiece.
Ocarina of time sure is
A little ways through my screen got blurry, and I thought it was the quality. Nope, it was just a grown man's tears.
^^THIS^^
I was literally crying with joy.
It's so sad, so powerful, so emotional, you definitely did a fantastic job!
Your videos feel more realistic, these kinds of events in my opinion should have been shown in the game.
Would have added more character, and more depth to the story.
Good job 🙂
Silence is always too loud,
Isnt it..?
Lol
No it's silent!
@@giomorrison9531 nah lmao I'm just sad because this animation is heartbreaking

Everyone: Saria and Link will be together!
The writers: *laughter*
なにこれ😢めちゃくちゃ泣けた😭なんて懐かしい……
こんなに素敵なファンビデオを観れるなんて本当に嬉しいです。日本のゲームをこんなに愛してくれる海外のファンの方々が居ることも嬉しい。素晴らしいです。Amazing!!!💖✨
When young link ran past my heart broke 😿😿
@Dana Maynard facts.....
Me too
Same here
OOT brought me and my brother together for years. I always watched him play it. Now he's just a shadow of who he once was. He is schizophrenic. Makes me cry, never forget the past. It helps you keep moving forward.❤
That's s sad. I hope he's doing okay, sending him my best wishes
There is treatment for that love. I hope he is doing better and you and him can play this still.
@@thelegendofthem6120 yes hes getting treatment now ❤. He is doing a lot better.
@@adventuresofhootandwootthe287 I'm glad to hear that!💞🙏🏻
This is so sweet! I especially love the small details added, like how Link's ears twitch at 2:12 when Sheik hops down.
2:12
*ULTIMATE EAR TWITCH!*
I’m so sorry, I’m so cringy. 😅
Lol!
That is an awesome detail I hadn’t noticed!! Thanks for pointing it out!!
@@maximumdm9612 how could you not notice that
janegohtintin I’m jut an idiot
@@maximumdm9612 cool
Your animation has seriously improved so much even since Twilights Shadow it has gotten so good. Your expressions are on point, and the animation is just so beautiful.
You haven't seen every other animation
Like dragon ball evolution lol
Bowens92 ....What?
if only you were beautiful so you would put your face as ur profile pic
Rick James That comment was not relevant and frankly it was very rude, especially coming from someone without a profile pic at all. Maybe I just like Zelda, and you can keep your opinion to yourself.
Literally made my eyes water, you almost got me. Amazing stuff keep it up, this kind of content is just so pure and makes me love LoZ over and over ❤️
I seriously need an OoT Time movie...or remaster or something w the deep and emotional story driven cut scenes! Another job well done Major Link! 😭💯👌
J Son ANIME
That ending was perfect. I absolutely loved the shot of him shooting the Hookshot at the camera
Another great masterpiece, Major Link! Link really missed Saria, and Sheik knew how he felt. Link's flashbacks of him and Saria playing together were super cute, and the scene where Link and Sheik played the Minuet of the Forest was just gorgeous! Keep up the good work! 👸💗💟🌹💐🌸🎀🐱🦄🍰
Dude this was incredible! You keep getting better and better with your storytelling ! Can’t wait for the next one ❤️
This part of the game was always super memorable to me and you just made it a million times better. Your Zelda animations are by far the best and Nintendo needs to hire you lol. Everything was perfect, Shiek's dialogue, Link's facial expressions and body language, and the bits with Young Link were fantastic! Keep it up MajorLink, we love you!
I'm so glad you created another animation. I'm a Zelda fan and love your work. keep at it you're a terrific animator
Your gift of cinematography is appreciated. I love how Link sees the spot where Saria sat and remembers their last meeting seven years ago when Link learned her song. It's also a bit tragic because, from Link's perspective, he saw Saria a little while ago before being put to sleep for seven years.
I love how you portrayed Sheik as a warrior similar to the artwork of the game rather than a character who pops in and out of the scene. Sheik testing Link by attacking him is a good way to train Link now that he is an adult. Despite her harshness, Sheik still offers Link some council. From the way Link smiles, he got back the determination to fight.
The animation for Link and Sheik playing their instruments was great. I never saw Link use his fingers in the ocarina until now. I look forward to all of the Sheik encounters.
If they were to Remake Ocarina of time I would love to see something like this!
Me too
Hey another cool video!!!
*Saw sheik and said “you’re slow”*
Dangit I forgot about that at first in the temple of time Sheik said “much faster than before”....
Your animations are getting better Major Link I hope you do more videos and we will support you!
I love Saria so much and this animation makes me feel so many things, I wish more people would do things with Saria and I hope you keep doing this for a long time.
I do not leave a comment, but your videos deserve it. What you manage to create is just beautiful!
A French woman who greatly admires your work
Laura Amiot um wee wee baguette
"Saria will always be your friend".
Its okay to cry 😭.
Sariah is my favorite character. So little screen time. But you couldn't do a thing without her in the first place. I cried a bit. Not gonna lie. Amazing as always Major
Guau!
La verdad no pensé que otra persona sintiera lo mismo que yo al haber jugado Zelda.
Y más en una animación.
Me encontré una joya!! 💞💞
Welp, another MajorLink video, another instant like. Really appreciate the work you put into these
Link just casually keeping an ocarina in his butt
And a hookshot.
@@mysticwolf6828 And a hammer
And hundreds of arrows
And hundreds of ruppees
And a stack of bananas
I'd like to think Link was stuck behind the Door of Time when he returned to his child self at the end of the game. He pulls out Saria's ocarina and finds that playing Minuet of Forest teleported him to her favourite tree stump. She was still a sage after all. Link told her about everything that had happened and they parted ways again for Link to speak with Darunia, King Zora and Zelda about Ganondorf before he ever arrives, but not before playing music together long into the night. Losing your best friend is indeed like looking at a tree stump; you can see the rings of their life up until the point it was cruelly cut away, but as Shiek reminded Link, their spirit will always be within you.
This is such a beautiful reimagining of that scene. I'm late to the zelda fandom and haven't played oot myself but i've seen the OG scene this came from and wow... this short fills in so many holes - very cinematic. i adore it so much, thank you
The first half of this really made me tear up. I always thought Saria and Link's friendship was such an emotional part of the game. :) Thanks for making this!
i seen the notification and i was like 'i'm ready for more heartbreak' and you delievered. major link, the real mvp, always delivering quality Zelda content. can't wait to see what you'll give us next! keep working hard :^D
This is word for word what I thought when seeing the notiication
zeldafan_99 Why is your profile pic making me go insane shipping
@@emma.mikaelson if you want you can check out the artist on Twitter, ive been been obsessed with his/her artwork
@kaido_sakura
Beautiful graphic
Although I do not like seeing sheik’s arm so jerky while playing the harp
This is an emotional video for me. The day I saw it my friend told me that he and a girl who I have loved for 3 years, are now a couple. That day I felt like Link, trying to move forward with my life, to let go someone I cared about.
Luck was by myside, and I found out that it was just a cruel April fools joke. Me and her are now together for 4 months.
But I will never forget that feeling, and how much influence this video had on me.
Thank you, MajorLink!
These animations give these characters so much more life/dimension. The original games gave the same subtext, but with this style of animation, the facial expressions, and the way that they move, it really gives it just so much more emotion. As a newfound fan of these videos, I will keep wishing for their continued success.
high quality, getting me right in the feels as always major :'')
I remember when I play oot on my nintendo...
Still the best game i played
Sorry for bad english❤
Hungry for attention
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! You never fail us. Your awesome!!
A song is a memory that plays in your head constantly, and when you listen closely, everything comes flooding back. I remember when I played OOT on my 3ds for the first time. I played the original, and the good memories and soundtrack made me feel nostalgic. OOT was a masterpiece... Truly a split in the multiverse, and a Link to the past...
Got goosebumps watching this. The Zelda series, is without a doubt, more than just a game. The adventures and characters you meet, stay with you long after the game is over. That is what makes this series truly unique. You don’t just play these games. You experience them.
Sis:Why you crying?
Me: majorlink new vid.
Sis: let me see
*Also starts to cry.*
*Cries together.*
I have chills and butterflies. Absolutely stunning work. I love the detail put into the expressions, sound, and small movements. You really gave Link extra character which I love. Keep up the awesome work.
~Joslyn
Fantastic! It's awesome how you add emotion to these scenes, like seriously Nintendo should hire you! The detail of Sheik's facial expression at 4:14 really got to me too!
I think it is something like waking up... something we all experience eventually... It all depends if we let it touch our emotions. I returned to a place of my childhood in a city I no longer live in. This video has a lot of that emotion. You remember things and it brings you back.
These animations make me so emotional. I love them, and it really gives me a deeper love and understanding for Link, especially in ocarina of time and majoras mask.
Thanks majorlink for all these Zelda vids man. I’m seriously in love with them
This just brings me back memories as when I was a kid..
I like how when little link stepped in before him. "She's mine" lol major link you did great
"we'll be friends forever... when you play it, i want you to remember us."
nostalgia and tears all just welled up at once
I would love to see this in a movie, like all the scenes you made and more wrapped up in one video. That would be amazing. Even the weird scenes; like the owl babbling, or coming across an enemy, opening the mini-boss weapon chest, any fighting scene, you die and fairy brings you back to life. All the struggles we all go through and relate on. For example, trying to jump on a ledge three times (or more) in a row and falling all of those times (usually off of high places for me cause that's where my clumsiness really starts to kick in). Whether it's a movie or just a few clips here and there, I'd be happy either way. So _thank you_ for making these videos.
Think how hard it is for this Link. He had to leave everything he knew behind to save the entire world, entering the world at such a young age is already really difficult, but he literally and metaphorically had to grow up very fast.
2:38
*WELL EXCUSE ME PRINCESS!!! I'm sorry that your crush has feeling for another girl.*
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANK YOU SO MUCH
I'd like to see an emotional animation where Link awake Saria as a Sage.
何回もここに来て、何回も泣いてるわ😭😭 本当に本当に大好きです……
僕も久しぶりにこの動画見つけました。
子供の頃を思い出して泣きそうになります。
Wow. Just wow. Amazing, I never thought that someone could make such an amazing animation. I'm sure that a large portion of people who grew up playing zelda felt this in their heart's as we are all grown now, however if you did not play the game as a child it still conveys a message. I loved it, made me cry and think about my past as well.
I love how amazing your animations are! It’s a really good look at the characters and how they act! Plus, I loved how it feels like and almost remaster of the original games scene but with more story behind Link.
Wow that was really beautiful! It was a great way to show how strong the relationship is between Saria and Link! Your animation in those videos are truly wonderful and as a hardcore Zeldafan I can tell that you really put a lot of love and detail from these memorable zelda-moments in your videos, which makes me really happy to see. 😊 You are awesome and keep up the good work! 😄
Thank you so much, you are truly incredible at what you do. I’d love to see more🤗😍
That smile at 4:10 with the music just makes me feel so emotional, if it blacked out there I would've been crying.
How could nearly 400 people dislike this? It was beautiful. I may be a year late but you've got a new subscriber just because I love this so much. That game was the game that turned me into a gamer and also was the beginning of my lifelong love for fantasy adventure rpg games. I just recently bought a nintendo 2ds xl specifically for that game and Majoras Mask just so I could have them again. Thank you for making this.
"You must let go of the past."

These are the animated scenes we deserve in this game.
Major Link siempre con vídeos tan emotivos, le das ese lado dulce a Link. Eres lo máximo aun tengo el vídeo de Link y navi cada vídeo es único te felicito por tu gran trabajo
I love love love how much expression and emotion you give to Link.
I've only lived 29 small years but I've seen more than 18 friends and family pass away in my life, it's kind of miserable carrying on with so many ghosts in your head. This was a good video.
