We have typically discovered ourselves questioning plenty of issues in regards to the Legend of Zelda franchise and, extra particularly, its most important protagonist, Hyperlink. Which Hyperlink is the strongest? What does he do in his spare time? Simply how lengthy does he actually sleep?
What we have by no means actually thought of, nevertheless, is which Hyperlink is maybe the stinkiest. We’re virtually sure that no model of Hyperlink smells completely good – think about the strenuous train he places himself by in every recreation, for one – however as for which is absolutely the stinkiest? That is frankly misplaced on us.
After a TikToker determined to rank the Hyperlinks in response to how badly they odor, nevertheless, Wired determined to query long-time producer Eiji Aonuma and Tears of the Kingdom director Hidemaro Fujibayashi on which Hyperlink is the smelliest. Aonuma, maybe fairly predictably, went with Hyperlink from Breath of the Wild (and, presumably, Tears of the Kingdom), stating that the Barbarian Armor, particularly, would create some fairly disagreeable odours.
Fujibayashi, nevertheless, went with Hyperlink from Twilight Princess, stating that not solely does Hyperlink dig by filth and run by dungeons as a wolf, but in addition spends a great deal of time getting bodily with the Goron tribe (quiet there within the again!):
“There are some scenes in Twilight Princess the place Hyperlink engages in sumo wrestling with the Goron tribe. I think about he’s fairly smelly in that state of affairs.”
A minimum of we will tick this one off the checklist of issues to ask Aonuma and Fujibayashi sooner or later, anyway. Maybe we might consider one thing else within the meantime. Like the place the heck are all of the bathrooms in Skyloft?
