Fanart Friday Special: Wild fanart

This is my last article before finally playing Breath of the Wild, and yet we’ve had so much for it though it has not been released. While I am already thrilled to finally have the chance to play this game, the fanart people have been creating has made me even more excited! The love and…

Music Monday: Light World Dungeon

Recently, I have been learning to become a Dungeon Master for Dungeons & Dragons, and one of the things that help me most when I’m trying to think of ideas is music — more specifically, Zelda music. I’ve been listening to a lot of the dungeon themes from The Legend of Zelda to get my mindset…

Throwback Thursday: Big Octo mistake

“If you see seagulls flying all around some sea water, that’s a sign that you need to be wary, fry. Because the seagulls flock to wherever Big Octos appear… BIG OCTOS, I tell you! These things don’t mess around!” These are the wise words of a Fishman who I, unfortunately, did not get the chance…

Fan Art Friday: Retro Cuties

I must admit, I’m a little old-fashioned; I love to see the hero and the princess fall in love at the end of a story, and this is wonderfully portrayed by Pineapplelicious in her work, “Retro Cuties”. What I love most about this piece is that it pays tribute to the original Link and Zelda.…

Throwback Thursday: An Elf on the Subway

When you’re in a cosplay, the last thing you want is for someone to call you a different character than the one you’re dressed as. It’s embarrassing and it’s disappointing, but sometimes there are exceptions to this. This happened to me one time when I was dressed as Link. It was international cosplay day back…

Music Monday: Linebeck’s Guitar

Linebeck, as well as being one of my all time favorite Zelda characters, also has one of my favorite theme songs, and YouTube’s 72HoursRemaining made an amazing guitar-only cover of this song! Though I usually cover more orchestral covers in my articles, I really have to say I am impressed by these two guitarists. They…

Fanart Friday: A fairy’s healing touch

Any Zelda player knows the feeling of finally finding a fairy after a difficult trial, and Saltycatfish put all those feelings of relief and calmness into this piece of art. Everything about this drawing is so serene. The light, sketchy line work doesn’t feel so intense and allows the drawing to breathe. The dim lighting…

Throwback Thursday: Triforce of Savings

I am a collector of Zelda merchandise. I am also cheap. Usually, those things don’t tend to go together, but every so often, a miracle happens. There is a sale! Now I’ve gotten a lot of Zelda merchandise on sale — A Princess Zelda Nendoroid, an Ocarina of Time, and even a metal Master Sword…

Fanart Friday: Four Swords Princess

Princess Zelda has had many different incarnations and appearances throughout the Legend of Zelda series, and one particular design of hers that I often find overlooked is that of Four Swords Adventures. It is rather unfortunate seeing as it is quite a delightful look for the Princess (at least in my eyes), which is why…

Music Monday: May we meet again

If you ever wondered what a soundtrack for a Skyward Sword film would sound like, Rozen’s cover, “May we meet again” is exactly what you’re looking for. “Fi’s theme” is a gorgeous theme in itself, so to have such an amazing orchestration is a privilege to listen to. The title, referencing one of the most…

Music Monday: Celtic Town Medley

I have done an article before concerning the musical work of RebeccaETripp, and here I am again talking about another piece of her work. Why? Because it is just that pleasant for me to listen to, and I can not go without sharing such a delight such as her “Celtic/Medieval Town Theme Medley”. Throughout the…

Fair treatment of the fairy? The fans evaluate Navi

“Hey! Listen! Look!” I assume you already know who I’m talking about. That’s correct, Ocarina of Time’s own Navi the fairy. Navi has the notorious reputation for not only being one of (or if not) the most annoying Legend of Zelda character but also one of gaming’s most irksome companions in general. Her famous phrases have made their…

Fanart Friday: Link Crossing

Recently, I have purchased Animal Crossing: New Leaf and I must say I am loving it, and by loving it I mean it’s stolen my soul. With the upcoming news from Nintendo Direct, information about Zelda themes and characters making an appearance has made its way around the internet, and hearing this I could not…
