    The fact that Ganon's tear was implanted on his forehead, and how in botw you have to shoot the forehead of Calamity Ganon to officially destroy him with a Bow that seals darkness with light, it really just awes me how much is really thought of when connecting the story progression with these two games

      and how the dragons are sometimes seen in the depths through the shrine holes or apparently some hole in the center of lake hylia, and they go through a portal in the sky, which it too high to be viewed by link in breath of the wild. it's just such a nice touch to see how these things really connect with each other

      ganon's forehead is typically his weakness. it's been a motif that the finishing move is his forehead ever since ocarina of time. the only major exception was twilight princess, which put it onto his stomach. also he has gems and such on it throughout the series so I think it runs deeper than just between botw and totk

    for anyone confused about the difference between Gibdos and Redeads, Redeads are the zambies you fight in OoT and WW, they scream to freeze you and then latch onto you to drain your health. Gibdos are the things you fight in TP with the big swords, and are very similar to redeads, being zambies that scream to freeze you, but instead of draining your health in that game they just crush you with a big af sword. and it appears in this game they are also legally insects :)

    36:45 Addition to the "fake Zelda clone" that Ganon summons, we know that she is not the real Zelda because she is wearing clothes from the Zonai age and not the present blue tunic. Thats because the past Ganon had never seen her in the present clothes and were not able to create an illusion of Zelda with the present blue tunic. And thats why we see her roaming around Hyrule in Zonai clothes

    For anyone wondering about the length of time skip between BOTW and TotK, it is not yet confirmed. The wiki (for whatever you can trust it) on the Tulin page says “several” years have passed, how wonderfully vague.
    If we use Mattison as a metric, who seems to be about 4-5, we get that potentially ~5-6 years have passed. That is complicated by the fact that in the BOTW lore, Gerudo mature faster than Hylians, so she could be potentially as young as 3, pushing ToTK to only ~4 years after BOTW. We have no further metric for base Gerudo ages at the moment, but they *might* use the same age of adulthood as the Hylians, that being 17, keep this in mind for later. Edit2: someone in the comments reminded me that Link in BOTW is not considered old enough for a Noble Pursuit, but is once TotK comes around, which leads me to believe that 17 is *not* the age of adulthood for Gerudo.
    Another metric could be Tulin, as he seems to age from ~7 in BOTW to ~13 in TotK, which seems to support a gap of ~6 years. That however is complicated that Rivali’s age at death was 21, and imo he looks comparable to what you might expect someone ~30 to look like, which implies that Rito could develop faster than Hylians, and that ~6 years could once again perhaps be ~4 years. Purah is no help at all since she artificially locked herself to her ~20-25 year old form from Age of Calamity. TotK Link and Zelda and Paya have not substantially aged from their BOTW selves, with BOTW Link and Zelda at the Hylian age of majority of 17, and BOTW Paya at ~18-20, so I doubt the gap was more than a few years.
    Where am I going with this? Riju is confirmed to be 12 in BOTW. Even the most generous estimates of the time gap have her at 17-18, which *might* mean adulthood for the Gerudo, but also might not, and given that she is still on par with Link in height even in Heels, whereas the known Gerudo adults are all substantially taller than Link, I think it is reasonable to assume that she is not yet a full adult, and is in all likelihood still a teenager, so please stop whining about Erik censoring chat and telling them to stop being creepy about the potentially underage person.
    Edit: Inb4 I get a bunch of comments saying: “I’m a teenager/similar age, it’s fine if I do it”, perhaps take this into consideration: an important lesson that I believe is part of maturity is realizing that being horny on main/in public rather than coming across as funny can contribute to making an environment where people feel unsafe, so consider learning to keep such things private.

      Actually I think you don't really need to do any math for this.
      Every Gerudo adult we see is like 1.5x taller than Link and Riju is Link's height.
      Thus We have more reason to assume that she is a teenager than to assume she is an adult.
      Thus having an entire chat (probably not full of teenagers) behaving like chat did was disgusting, or at least inappropriate
      Plus Pointcrow said something that was really on point during the stream : If you need to debate if someone is "legal" then you probably shouldn't lust over them in the first place

    1:20 I was also confused as to why they were called Gibdos and not Redeads, so I looked it up. From the Zelda Wiki:
    “Burning away a Gibdo's bandages in Majora's Mask will even reveal it to be a ReDead, while in other games, burning a Gibdo's bandages instead reveals a Stalfos.”
    So I guess Gibdos are just bandaged Redeads. Makes sense given their similarities.

    Honestly, I never played Breath of the wild for longer than 20 minutes, but watching this makes me want to go actually experience that game so I can play this one for myself. I also love watching someone who knows the lore play this game because idk what's happening or who is who half the time lol

      It's literally just BOTW but with more stuff
      There's basically no reason to play BOTW anymore unless you're nostalgic for the Guardian enemies

      @@NoviNaru_I think both games have merit. It seems silly to phrase it this way, but BOTW has more focus on the “wild” and TOTK has more focus on the “kingdom”
