The Legend of Zelda Cartoon was an American animated series produced in the late 80’s as part of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show! During the first season of the Super Mario Bros. cartoon, Link and Zelda’s adventures would be shown every Friday in place of the usual adventures of the plumber duo. The Zelda cartoons weren’t a very big success and production of the show stopped after 13 episodes.
The plot is set in Hyrule Castle, where Zelda and Link are living together with the King of Hyrule. In all the episodes, Link tries to steal a kiss from Zelda, and he always comes close, but something always interrupts him. However, Link’s fairy friend Sprite is always willing to give Link a kiss, but he never notices. Ganon, the obvious bad guy in the show, is a cruel Moblin-like creature like in the original Zelda game. His goal in life is to capture the Triforce of Wisdom, but Link and Zelda always manage to foil his dastardly schemes.
The show’s episodes were originally aired in a completely different order than they were intended. The episode number reflects the order in which the episodes were produced, not the order in which they were shown.
