Princesse Zelda

Really repetitive and childish although Len Carlson as Ganon is awesome also some of the redesigns are pretty clever remember this was made when there were only one Zelda games in existence and the graphics were really limited.

How ever me personally I have never really cared for 80s kid shows that much and with some creative plots some which interestingly enough show up in later game series(kinda) there is an evil doppelganger of Zelda similar to the dark reflection of Link(shadow Link,Dark Link in later games) and Link loses his body(similar to how Zelda loses her body in spirit tracks) it's probably all a coincident given that Nintendo did not really favor this series but it is still kinda interesting.

If you decide to watch it wont hurt you but just don't expect a masterpiece.

It's a shame not many shows are as good as this nowadays. This show has it all. Gripping plots, amazing writing and super awesome music! I got the whole show for free as a powerup reward from gamestop a few years ago. I will never sell it because I love it.

Story: Even better than the Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess plot combined.

Animation: It's as if Jesus himself animated this before he died.

Music: My favorite song is the one that just plays in the show every five seconds.

Voice Acting: Well exuuuuse me, princess!

9/10 super special awesome

Next to The Super Mario Bros. Super Show is The Legend of Zelda, Altough not lasting long on it's run. It's still a can't miss!

I have this on DVD and my 5-year-old loves it. Watching it now as a 43-year-old man, I can see how there are some irritating aspects to the storylines... but those aspects were necessary to perpetuate the series.

Yes, plenty of times, Link should have zapped Ganon again instead of warning him "one more zap and you're history", giving him the chance to defend himself. Plenty of times, Link or Zelda should have grabbed the Triforce of Power when they had the chance, instead of saying "there's no time". Plenty of times, they should have kissed instead of talking about it for so long that something happened to stop it.

But if Link destroyed Ganon or got the Triforce of Power, what would've been the plotline of the next episode?

As a 9-year-old in 1989, I lived for this show. I always watched the Super Mario Bros. Super Show, but Fridays when they played the Legend of Zelda were by far my favorite. There will always be a soft spot in my heart for this. It was awesome, for a kid in 1989, and all of my friends loved it. Okay, so Link does say "Ex-CUUUUUse me, Princess!" too much, but in 4th grade, plenty of us said it and thought we were cool. It became a cultural icon for a brief moment. It was never meant to entertain the adults who complain about it now. And don't forget, when this show was running, all we had in the Zelda series were games 1 and 2. They never had the chance to expand the storyline to the games that came afterward.

Yeah, it's kind of annoying in retrospect that they changed the roles so that Link was a somewhat derpy teenager and Zelda was a strong and often snarky woman who wore pants instead of the dresses she was shown wearing in the Nintendo games, but think of how it helped show girls that they could and should be strong. It did much better on gender balance than the video games did.

It only gets a 9 out of 10 because it has nothing to offer adults that didn't grow up with it. But if you'd asked me how I felt about this in 1989, it would've gotten about a 100 out of 10. And obviously it still grabs the hearts of kids.

I watched this cartoon in the UK in the early 1990s and thought it was very entertaining. The character of Link is you're average confident but cocky American with a magic sword and Zelda who acts like a Canadian nobility.

The characters and animation are very well drawn and represented though the storylines are slightly wooden it is still entertaining

From what I have read on the Trivia Link was a more sophisticated on noble character committed to his duty, his repetitive catchphrase gets very irritating you would think for such a person with an important job he would have better Sarcasm. Zelda is good as his sidekick as well as the lady protects she is not an annoying damsel in distress with abit of Romance.
