The Legend of Zelda

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

The Legend of Zelda is a tv show adaptation of the video game series. It doesn't require any knowledge of the game series, but the intended audience is fans of the early games. Various trends from the series started here.

The show is an episodic interpretation of various exploits by the evil Ganon to steal the triforce of wisdom. The main characters are very different from their game counterparts and the dynamic between them is entertaining.

The plot is repetitive, predictable and there's no overarching narrative. The catchphrases are iconic but cheesy. The animation is pretty generic and the action is simplistic but the sound design is great and has lots of callbacks to the classic game

If you are a fan of 90s cartoons or The Legend of Zelda and don't mind how corny it is you should enjoy this. It's actually pretty fun and humorous if you can get past the faults.

If you can just take it for what it is, it's actually pretty entertaining. Don't get me wrong it's horribly, but in a really fun way. Now if your a hardcore Zelda fan that dreams of a Game of Thrones/Lord of the Rings style series about the Legend of Zelda, keep dreaming because this is not that. Just a cheesy over the top so bad it's good cartoon, but that's okay if you can take it for what it is.

On a side note, if I had one thing to say about the show that it actually does really really well, it would be the chemistry between Link and Zelda. How they interact and how that helps drive the story I feel actually really works. It's works completely on accident but it still works.

Yes it is kinda bad and all of that, but it is still some media about one of the oldest and bestselling Nintendo game franchises in the world: The Legend of Zelda. And to the critics, listen: It's definitely much better than the Philips CDi games.

Like most cartoon from that era, everything had to be cool and for that reason it hasn't aged that well. Still however there are quite a few positives.

The animation was fine, which loads of characters from the first two games added. Plus exclusive characters to the series. I watch twice now, and it makes me wonder and hope for some kind of new attempt.

The series seems deserving of another short especially with the success of Sonic and the many seasons of Pokémon. And the upcoming Mario movie.

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.
