The interview at the end of the ALTTP manga couldn't help? It clearly said that it was Nintendo who ask the mangas and that they have help in the creation of these.


I don't think it's enough, this even would be the opposite. Where this from?
 
If you're referring to this, then there may be a chance of passing them as secondary/tertiary canon. The best thing is that Majora would either become 4-A for creating Termina according to HE or Low 2-C/High 3-A for creating time in the manga. It's a win-win situation ovo.

Hyrule Encyclopedia. It's actually an image in which the Light World is composed of the kingdom of Hyrule, the sky etc. then the worlds of Holodrum, Labrynna, Termina and Koholit (only "half" for the last one). If the Light World contains something inside an universe, and things from another worlds, it would make no sense for the rest of the universe, which is closer than these worlds, to not be "Light World" as well. It also states that Twilight Realm = Light World, and we're already considering the former as an universe.

It's not the interview I have in my volume, but this interview is good too. The chapter with this feat isn't canon even to the manga. The author said himself "it's a inedite story based on the mystics elements shown". But the mangas confirmed Light World to be a universe (in ALTTP and TP mangas) owo.
 
Well, the Tiforce was stated to be omnipotent in the book.

but it was what remained from a planetary level creation, if a fraction of the goddesses power could be omnipotent, why couldnt just one use it to create it instantly? PIS?
 
The Triforce is stated to be omnipotent literally everywhere in the Zelda verse. Also, it's an universal level creation. I don't understand the second question though.

I have already written the entire thread for the canonicity of the manga, should I post it?
 
Obviously an hyperbole.

Maybe yes? I'll complete with the screen of the interview if this could help (even if I have a french version).
 
@Triforce: I was joking when I talked about CD-i Link though (I mean, making fun of them is as much of a meme as are the games themselves) >_> My bad if I wasn't clear about it.

So the closest thing Zelda has to an authority is Aonuma himself? That makes it tough from this side. At least you got the possibility with the manga, is a good way to go for now. Good luck with it.

Why are we even separating OoT Link and MM Link? They are literally the same person.
Click to expand...
Because of having different items/powers I think.

It's like the 3 Naruto pages.
 
No, it's because OoT exists in AT and DT, while MM exists in the CT. Same Link in different timelines.

@Tarta

I guessed, but I really wanted to share the ridiculousness of Hyrule Encyclopedia having pages about Spin-offs and any Zelda reference in other games (3 pages only for the last one) and yet it doesn't even mention CD-i games.
 
Quick question, I noticed Faro's Feat is what puts Skyward Sword's bosses at 6-A; including base Ghirahim. Faron also should be comparable to Eldin and Lanayru; but are their Twilight Princess counterparts comparable? If so, that might need to another upgrade for the temple bosses.
 
I'm unsure about scaling Levias to the Final Bosses, though the Imprisoned scales for sure. But yeah, the 4 Spirits; though Ordin doesn't have a boss. Oh wait, that was Zant who sealed them away iirc, not the first 3 bosses. So unfortunately, it might not be legit feats for Diababa, Fyrus, or Morpheel.
 
Not from Ghirahim, it's Faron's feat. We scaled base Ghirahim from Faron, and the other bosses don't seem to have profiles, but they scale from Faron, Eldin, and Lanayru iirc.
 
@YuriAkuto
The theory states that, like Star Wars, there is an omnipresent energy that exists throughout everyone and everywhere, from the Golden Goddess to the Minish, in Zelda called Force, and that Force is the basis of all Magic and Life in Zelda, both the Good and Bad, and everything in between.

I'll give you the Introduction and Conclusion of the Theory as the middle is just the evidenece.

Intro:

Force is the power that resides in all living beings in the Legend of Zelda. Some people, like the Ocean King Oshus and Princess Zelda, are said to have an enormous amount of it, while others can usually only muster up a medium sized Force Gem.
Force might also be simply another word for magic, as the people who have lots of it often excel at magic.
Force has many interesting qualities. It can be generated through feelings of gratitude and happiness and then physically manifest itself in the shape of a Force Gem, triangular objects that can differ in size and color. It can also be transferred from one person to another, both willingly and forcefully.

Conclusion:

Force, as I see it, is the base of all magic.
Force can physically manifest itself in the shape of Force Gems, Gratitude Crystals, the Sand of Hours, Sacred Flames, Poe Flames and Rupees.
Force Gems created by divine beings are large and golden. The three pieces of the Triforce are an example. The Light Force is such a divine Force Gem, and it contains the power of the Goddess, Hylia.
Force is also the property of sacred swords that gives them the power to repel evil and it's the power that seals demons.
In general, Force is a tool used to do either good or evil, and it can be created through extreme emotions of gratitude or hatred. Force which is used to do good can be corrupted to do evil and forces of evil can be turned to good.


So like I said, Zelda=Star Wars
 
I know, I do see where that comes from, but still; people are always comparing franchises to Star Wars. People said Street Fighter was Karate Star Wars is another example, especially the fan theory about Akuma being Ryu's birth father. There's also Final Fantasy II, Harry Potter, Eragon, and a shitton of other franchises people compare to Star Wars in one way or another.
 
Well, Star Wars basically mixed so many cultures and lores together to create something massive and big. And that in turn inspired many franchises that came after that. It mixed Old West Cultures with Feudal Japan's cultures, it mixed Fantasy with Sci Fi, and also brought some various religious aspects and mythology with science together. So many things it brought together. And Zelda did pretty much the same thing here tbh.
 
@Warren

However, i do not believe Zelda=Star Wars

Zelda is likely inspired like star wars by the monomyth which they both share huge similarity's with, which isn't all that impossible considering the monomyth is essentially the most popular story structure created by mankind and has shown to be the most enduring, as for many of the smaller details, it basically comes down to European myth and folklore in which they both are also inspired by, King Arthur = Luke/ Link, Exaclibur= Master Sword/Lightsaber ect, this might be confusing to some but star wars isnt actually a sci-fi series, it's essentially a fantasy series with a sci-fi paint job. as for the force and magic being similar, id say it's because the force is essentially a mix of easter religions most predominantly Buddhism and considering LOZ is made by an easter studio it wouldn't be all that surprising that they share similar traits.

in conclusion, both star wars and Legend of Zelda are just modern retellings of the Monomyth in different mediums

Video games and Films respectively
