Thoughts on the 1989 Legend of Zelda animated series?
I don't. I mean, sure, they can.What? Sorry, what was the question?
did they really have to make Link such a dudebro?
>>151810390It was alright.They didn't have much lore to work with back then and what they came up with wasn't bad.
>>151810390
>>151810390Turn the color contrast down just right and she'll look pantsless.
>>151810390oh, exploitable
>>151810390I don't know if this is a hot take or not, but I actually liked the fact Link was kind of a dick in this. I just feel like we don't get abrasive protagonists without them being know-it-alls anymore.
>>151810390Honestly I remember liking it a lot as a kid and finding it not that bad after rewatching it as an adult. But I've got terrible taste so take that with a grain of salt.
>>151810447Zelda was more uptight than Link though right? I can't remember
>>151810390I think CD-i Zelda is cute
I liked that Spryte was horny for Link.
>>151810390Zelda was DTF Link alot in this show, but of course something would always ruin the mood at the last moment.
>>151810463Yes
>>151810447Play monkey islandGuybrush is exactly what you're looking for, especially in the 2nd game.
>>151810553Christ 6 was such a trashfire.4 was a lowpoint too but at least you didn't have the creator throwing a hissyfit at people over social media.
>>151810416They had basically 0 material to work with as far as his personality.
>>151810481The cutest is ronununu's Zelda:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95IBEz8DbWw
The show had a surprising amount of jokes aimed at adults or nods to the actual games of the time.An example of the latter is a portrait of Zelda in her red dress from LoZ2 you see in the background.
>>151810560I know right? The fact Ron couldn't just commit to a fucking ending always pisses me off. The dude wants to be meta while having the story be genuine at the same time and it just doesn't work. Curse and Tales made the right choice to just play the story straight after 2's stupid ending.
>>151810655Whoops didn't mean to include that image with that post.Still, Sing was a cute OC Waifu (girls are cuter when they only speak nonsense sounds)
>>151810673Curse of monkey island is so good. The music alone awesome, but all that great voice acting makes it gold.
>>151810722There's just so much care and detail put into curse. It helps that the game is just gorgeous with it's backgrounds. >Everybody says papapishu instead of ouch if you read the papapishu plant during the quick sand puzzle.
>>151810554
>>151810795Goddamn that's a massive vagina
>>151810744Why is this so blurry and smeary?But good use of 2 point perspective.
>>151810801Puffy Vagina Energy
>>151810810It looks like AI upscaling. The original art is pixelated and looks better.
>>151810416This was a typical type of character you'd see in fantasy/sci-fi characters of the era. That rogueish but good-hearted adventurer who's crafty enough to fight creatively and borderline dirty but it's all for the greater good.
>>151810801Not just that, her hips are so far apart. I bet she could ride Epona all day.
>>151810839Worlds better.
>>151810655>>151810692
>>151810390Dobson approved.
>>151810390they gave Zelda a fantastic ass. And I think in a way, show why Link never talks in the games.
>>151810655Got a pic?
>>151810416>(sees Zelda on a bed) "Oh, boy, it's smooching time! " (tries jumping on top of her)Why did he do this?
>>151810400>>151810390
>>151810390Cake
The writer for this show was also a co- lead writer on Beast Wars and the 1998 incredible Hulk cartoon that's overlooked. Bob Forward. He has a preference for irreverent and snarky characters and himself has a snarky and dirty sense of humor. I'm a LoZ fan and BW fan, so finding this out gave me a new perspective on this show. I think the last 15 years of really playing with the LoZ formula justifies this show more than when it was one of the few adaptations out there. I can buy this Link just being an oddball in the grand scheme of Links. In a more general sense tough, I appreciate the cartoon as an 80's fantasy thing where the heroes are kinda rough around the edges and full of imperfections
>>151810553Which one should i plau
>>151810471Fast forward 20+ years later to BotW Zelda and nothing's really changed.
>>151812584Well, that's just prime.
>Link has a horse and a fairy companion>Ganon was once a human before his greed for the Triforce twisted him into a beast>Zelda has a great ass in tightsAmazing how this cartoon inspired more in the games than they care to admit.
>>151810390 Remember when Zelda ordered him to impregnate the different females across the land?
>>151812325Good, faggot
>>151811256>>151810655Proto-Shiekah
>>151810795There's thigh gaps and then there's the Grand Canyon that hitch had
>>151812935You're confusing Passage's works for this cartoon
>>151810390Hottest Zelda so far.
>>151810390Weirdly it is one of the very few fantasy cartoons in existence. For some reason despite being a pretty well known genre in fiction, they have never made too many cartoons with elves and dragons.
>>151812656I think Curse of Monkey island is the all around best game in the series and doesn't require knowledge of the first two games to get the plot. It's also essy to emulate using ScummVM.However if you want context then play the Special Editions of 1 and 2 modded to allow the updated audio to play with the original graphics. The special editions graphics are pretty awful compared to the original's pixel art but the voice acting is stellar. If you just want the originals you can easily emulate them with ScummVM as well.Tales of Monkey island is fun even with the sub standard graphics.You can Pretty much skip Escape and Return to monkey island unless your curious.
>>151810400is this loss
>>151810390Due to the popularity of a few lolcows, it's a fucking nightmare on twitter to acknowledge this series in any way since it only attracts people who want to screech how some person or fanartist is actually Dobson in disguise.
>>151813156That shit happens around here too.
HE SHOULD HAVE FUCKED THE FAIRYZELDA WAS A BITCHSPRYTE TREATED HIM RIGHTHE SHOULD HAVE FUCKED THE FAIRY>B-but waht about that one episode where he turned into a ghost and only zelda could see him because muh true loveNOT CANON I DON'T CARE
>>151812708Is that supposed to be the Captain N iteration?
>>151810553The controls in 4 are an abomination.
>>151810439I did this also
>>151810390Most likely going to be unironically better than the live action movie, sadly.>>151810416No, but it was great that they did.
>>151810744The fact that Alestorm hasn't done a cover of the song in it yet baffles me.
>>151811256No one let the sharteens see this one
A couple of weeks ago I was watching an old low budget Canadian horror movie called PinThe female lead started talking and it bugged the hell out of me how she sounded familiar but I didn't recognize the nameIt was Zelda's VA
Just post porn already.
>>151813151You can skip Escape, but SHOULD ignore Return.
>>151813913Needs to be FAT!
>>151813945
>>151810390It was great.
>>151810553Him being so much of a dick in 2 and 6 was such a misfire
>>151810390Canon
>>151812708Well certainly, Princess.
I think a lot of people these days get really hung up about lore that didn't really exist but it was, for it's time, a pretty fun fantasy adventure show and if you take it as purely that it's still a fun fantasy adventure show. Link and Zelda were barely characters and more stand ins for the the adventure game to work so they gave them a sort of sitcom vibe to work with but it worked alright.
>>151815520People put too much thought into things these days.The cartoon existed to sell the cereal.
>>151810575Stop lying
>>1518105534 might be shit but if you actually play the other 5 games then 6 is just a total fucking waste of an entire franchise, everyone should just stop at 2
>>151815820being a christian isnt a personality
>>151812325That's a man's lines.
>>151816008You wouldn't know, fedorite
>>151815965>>151810673Sometimes a franchise is great inspite of its creator
>>151810390B-b-bum! Butt! BUTT! BOTTOM! ANUS! GLUTES! REAR! BUTTHOLE! CHEEKS! SQUEEZABLE CHEEKS! SQUEEZING BUTT! SLAPPING BUTT! GRABBING HANDFULS OF BUTTCHEEKS! SPREADING BUTTCHEEKS!

>>151810390Best things to come out of it are "excuse me, princess." and The Legend Of Beavis.
>>151816034get a lifeit's what jesus would tell you
>>151816031truthe
>>151810447There was a value in letting him have the reckless horndog nature of an actual teenage boy, but it leaned too heavily.One thing about this version that I think actually did resonate was the show implies that his initial motive for adventuring was for adventure's sake, that he did let things go to his head and that he was often trying to show-off or prove himself.Even, "kiss me" stuff aside, the horndog side of him worked because it was a good way to bring out insecurity or have him screw up in front of her.If a Link of this particular age with a personality akin to this appeared in an anime or an action-adventure show in the 2000s with a writing team who toned him down and let him develop. You could have had something really good.
>>151813468There was a time or two where Zelda got all lovey-dovey and jumped on Link like she was gonna rape him.
>>151816031well yeah why would a woman be allowed to hold a pen
>>151816717Link was a doof because he was a show off. It was a good formula. Link acts like a pud, gets tripped up, there's a moral and then we remember why he's the hero
>>151812708Why is she fat.
>>1518105536 was made by a troon, and is proof of degenerates being unable to create art.
>>151815965>everyone should just stop at 2Curse is the best in the series and Tales is perfectly fine.
>>151810856>>151810575even working only using what was in the first game, it was an exploration and puzzle game that required you using every item on every surface and combing over every part of the mapeven knowing nothing about link, it would have been a fair assumption to make him a patient, cautious, and curious characterthe kind of guy who would poke mountain walls all day because he is listening for the sound of a hidden entrance
>>151817304nah
>>151817121If he used that technique to hop over a 40 foot wall it'd still be ridiculous, but clever.The fact he goes for a quarter mile horizontally is just nuts.
>>151817559>Best Visuals>Best voice acting>Hard and easy puzzle options>No moon logic puzzles>Great storyHow is Curse not the best? Hell how is it not worth playing alongside 1 and 2?
>>151817301>pick up the series again>turn it into mega double dogshit>blame everyone except yourselfMI should have stayed dead, instead it's been desecrated for no one's benefit least of all the creator's
OP is a fart knockerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDPRwLlpdTU&pp=ygUUdGhlIGxlZ2VuZCBvZiBiZWF2aXM%3D
>>151817625Because it is not TRUE and HONEST Monkey Island that turns into just wankery about how stories aren't real and how it's about le journey not le destination.
>>151810390why is nobody talking this masterpiece?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDPRwLlpdTU
>>151816906
>>151810390Probably a good thing I didn't see this as a child, it would have ruined the game for me and LoZ was pretty much the first game I ever really sat down and played and explored (in 1996). My favorite game and this show was dumb.
>>151818781Something about this post makes me feel like you trooned out and did so because you thought getting horny at lesbian porn meant you were a woman.
>>151818877Well no it's because the game has a totally different mood and the show isn't "canon" to the game as far as I'm concerned.Good on you for thinking about trannies though, I guess.
>>151818324>>151818345what the fuck is wrong with you as a person
>Ew, are the games like this? I don't wanna play them.How it made me feel.
>>151819380Shut up faggot, go help your mother.
>>151819584Hey, I ended up loving them.
>>151819651We know, go back to /v/ and defend Switch 2, you consoomer retard.
