    Zelda in BOTW takes the cake for sure and rightfully so. I mean she loses everything! She loses her sworn protector for fucks sake, who is put in a 100 year coma in order to come back to finally put a stop to it.

      Unfortunately, Rauru could have the liberty to be a good friend because he truly didn't fear the ramifications of Ganondorf. Even in death, he just casually delegated his job to his sister, Zelda, and a distant successor through Link.
      Rhoam, on the other hand, didn't have the luxury to be her friend. Honestly, he probably had a hard time being a dad. Zelda's power isn't just some cool thing to flex around Hyrule, he is in genuine fear that if his daughter's powers don't open, that him, his family, and the entire kingdom will be wiped out.

    I remember in the Minish Cap that I failed to reach Vaati before the third bell chime, which meant all the Light Force from Zelda was drained which basically killed her.

    As stated by one Joshua Burner, Zelda being stuck as a Light Dragon is way worse than death when you factor in the various branching timelines of The Legend of Zelda franchise. In some timelines, it's possible that Zelda remained stuck as a Light Dragon for an ungodly amount of time.

    Do you really think Urbosa would ever want her little bird to throwaway her happiness just because her role to restore the master sword is much more important than anything?
    That act will make everything they have fought for in BOTW be all for nothing!

    Poor BOTW/TOTK Zelda went through SO MUCH. My girl makes the “worst things” list not once, but twice.
    BOTW’s event is exceptionally tragic (especially because she blames herself for everything), but the draconification in TOTK breaks me. Not only is the scene absolutely gut wrenching, but this all happens on top of her experience in BOTW.
    In BOTW, she loses everyone she loves. Then, in TOTK, she loses herself. She really does lose everything there is to lose, with no hope of getting it back. 😭
    Shout out to The Adventure of Link’s Zelda, too. Being betrayed by your brother? Ouchhhh
    Poor Zelda. She always has so much to bear and to sacrifice. 💔

    Something I would add is Four Sword Adventures. In this instance, Vaati didn't kidnap her because she was the princess of Hyrule. He didn't really seem to care about Hyrule at all. He only took her because she was pretty and he wanted to make her his "bride." That is messed up.

    The worst thing happened to Zelda is when she fell from her bird's ride in the Sky in The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword and when she turned into a whole diffrent person in Twilight Princess. Am I a diffrent Zelda fan if Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess defienitily Twilight Princess are my favourite Zelda games? Those are my 2 first-ever-played Zelda games on the Nintendo Wii Era in my childhood. Wolf is my favourite animal and I love Midna who's more beautier than Zelda herself just in my opinion. Love Twilight Princess and hope it's coming finally to Nintendo Switch in someday! 😊❤

    if I'm being honest, while I was playing Tears of the Kingdom, I was shocked to find out that the Light Dragon IS Zelda, I know Minaru warned his that swallowing a sacred stone would mean losing your humanity, and sense of self, but this was her choice, if there was any way to restore the Master Sword, she had to make that decision if Link has any chance in destroying the Demon King Ganondorf once and for all.

    The botw Zelda is the closest character to being like me. She literally also wears white and blue as well as also having blond hair and green eyes. Also, I was born into a religious family with religious experiences who have no trouble connecting to god and having their prayers answered. And then there’s me. When I pray for something, the complete opposite happens. My family talks about their religious experiences while I sit there having nothing to share. My dad is hard on me for being different and because my mental issues keep my mom down. The only difference I have with botw Zelda is the fact I have no friends to help me carry the burden of not knowing my purpose or what makes me special.
