Who is the WEIRDEST Zelda Character??

I'm surprised you didn't mention how Tingle just kidnapped a random guy named David Jr and forced him to work for him in Windwaker.

Milo from Twilight Princess. The baby. That owns. A shop.

Tingle actually appears in Skyward Sword as a plush doll in Zelda's room, so Tingle, or at least the idea of him, has technically existed from the very start

3:30 I swear this kid is a nightmare. When I was a kid, he used to make me wanna puke because of his snot, and it hasn't changed one bit in 15+ years! :D

How did you not mention Beetle and how he mutters under his breath that he will hire somebody to steal the energetic beetle if you don't give it to him.

One of my favorite ways to introduce newbie Zelda players to the rest of the franchise's lore is to show them Ooccoo. She never fails to leave people speechless. Unique NPCs are part of what make the Zelda games so charming. If the dungeons dont hook you in, doing side quests for weird but kind NPCs will.

Moza is meant to show the player what mistakes can be made with cooking and therefore what not to do and I like how in the second game she goes from being an example of bad cooking to being able to help fix your own bad cooking

HyruleGamer isn't pregnant but he never fails to deliver

The water in Wind Waker is probably the most beautiful in the entire series

One thing you might notice about Tingle is that when he gives you that chart, it has four locations marked on it: Windfall Island, Tingle Island, one of the fairy islands... and your home island. Why? Well, Outset Island and the fairy island have something in common: both places are where Great Fairies upgrade your wallet capacity. He really wants you to be able to hold a lot of Rupees, huh?

"Does that make me weird?" No. Not even close.

Link's frickin' face at 10:34 gets me every time

Great video as always. For future reference, the “phonogram man” does have a name: Guru-Guru

Man, no mention of Kilton and Koltin? Especially the way Koltin shrieks line a psychopath when you give him your bubble gems.

Zill reminds me of daisy Mae from animal crossing new horizons because they both have a perpetual hanging booger and wow neither of them are bad people. My OCD is screaming at me to get them to wipe their face.

Nothing was more terrifying then snot baby from wind waker little man still haunts me

You should do a honourable mention as well. Kilton and his brother from TOTK deserves a spot in my opinion as well :)!

The only weird character in Zelda is Tingle. Looks weird, acts weird, sounds weird, is weird. Makes everything weird and the name even means, to an extent, a weird sensation. Nobody asked but I’m not a fan.

I'm glad Moza was brought back in TotK. And she was finally useful by fixing up the Dubious Food/Rock Hard Food so it would be much more useful. Good work Moza.👍

I like Zill when he's sleeping and his snot bubble pops, momentarily waking him. I'm surprised you didn't mention Agitha (aka Princess of Bugs) from Twilight Princess

I did not, in fact, know his name was Zill, lol.

Watching the snot boy section while eating vanilla yogurt was a mistake 🤢

Tingle has had cameos in every or almost every Zelda game since his first appearance. They just aren't always in person. In Phantom Hourglass, he is on a poster in the Milk Bar. In Spirit Tracks, he appears as a statue in at least one of the shops. As someone mentioned, he is a doll in Zelda's room in Skyward Sword. He appears as Tingel Island in the most recent games, as do his "brothers". While there aren't many who could top Tingle for weirdness, there are three who might, and they all happen to be bosses. First, there's zany Zant from Twilight Princess. His lust for power makes him lose his sanity. Next, and perhaps the weirdest, is Ghirahim from Skyward Sword. I suppose he's overall more creepy than weird, but the way he talks to you and his transformations definitely make him a psycho. Finally, there's my beloved Master Kohga, who is my favorite Zelda boss. I suppose it's his love of bananas and temper tantrums that make him weird, but aside from that, he's just really funny and entertaining. I love his character arc in all his appearances. He goes from a slacking goofball to a fairly competent, calculating leader.

Weird is not a bad thing in Hyrule!

Honestly surprised master kohga wasn't here.

Didn’t Tingle kidnap someone in Windwaker? lol I think he might’ve been in jail for a good reason 😂

HG dropped 2 videos in the last week. My holiday from work is made.

I better see weirdo characters in the movie or else is it really getting those intended “Ghibli vibes” the director cited.

What's even weirder about Ooccoo is that her name in the German version is "Tante" which literally means "aunt" - it never made sense to me, I still don't get it

Man I love your videos! Keep up the awesome content man!

Fun fact. the Song of Storms paradox is a specific kind called a bootstrap paradox in which information, or an object, is sent back in time and creates a causal loop where the information or object have no clear origin. like going back in time to give yourself a letter telling you how to build a time machine. where did the designs for the machine originally come from?

I appreciate the captions! Thanks HG

I believe the paradox starts with link learning the song of storms when he goes to the parallel world in majoras mask and then when he returns back to Hyrule in the war and everything goes off during his time in Hyrule he teaches the phonogram guy the song

Surprised Kamaro from Majoras Mask isn't mentioned. His odd dancing and weird design always creepes me out as a kid.

Whenever I hear Groose's theme I can't not think "you forgot the cookies?!"

day 82 of mentioning that on 6/6/2023 hyrule gamer made a video where, at 43.46, he spent 12 seconds simping about the ancient gerudo soldiers

Beedle is my favorite weird character, specifically in skyward sword.

Weirder still, the Song of Storms not only comes from nowhere in OoT, but it is also invented in the parallel world of Termina in Majora's Mask, which brings the question of how did it cross over to Hyrule, and how did it yet attached to the timeloop? Maybe some weird timey wimey reverse memory stuff, like Link somehow remembering learning the song from his future or something? Idk, makes the most Weird sense in a weird way.

I accidentally ran into Magda the moment I got down from the great sky island.... it was terrifying

Did you ever do a theory as to why Zill's picture was in thr private cabana in WW? I think that would be a cool mini discussion.

Windmill guy is reocurring too he turns up in oracle of seasons i think

While Link learning the Song of Storms is a paradox, the Song of Storms itself was written by the composer brothers. The same characters that wrote the Sun's Song.

"Ooccoo walked so the travel medallion can run" Just gonna ignore that Oocoo is just functionally a creepier version of Farore's wind, huh? Lol

I think of Snot-nose kid whenever I see Cubchoo in Pokemon

Malo. Like, what do I have to say? He is a super intelligent baby who starts a business in Castle Town, probably crazy rich.

Dampe the Grave keeper, and the Poe Collector from OoT.

Of course, there's Loone, who loves ancient things... in a seemingly weird way. She's first seen cuddling up to one of those orbs that activates a pedestal, and won't let you take it -- sorry, HIM -- away... unless you bring her pictures of three kinds of Guardians. (The Decayed ones don't count.) She could literally see a Stalker Guardian up the beach, and if she could agree to let you take the orb earlier and just ride down the lift with you, she could see a Guardian Scout. Skywatchers would be harder to see in person, though.

the sales guy at malo mart haunts my dreams

Hey HG, I have an idea for a video if you're interested. I think it's pretty safe to say that Link and Zelda both reincarnate through the ages. What I wonder is, are there other "special souls" who also reincarnate when they have a mission to fulfill? For instance, Beedle. He always looks the same in every game. He is always a merchant that can provide useful stuff to Link. Another that I think might reincarnate is never seen or mentioned. That would be someone who I'll refer to as the Architect. Just who exactly built all of the dungeons or temples that Link has conquered? Who came up with all of the puzzles he'd have to solve? I'm sure there are probably more examples of possible reincarnies, but these were the only two I could think of off the top of my head.

I feel that both Kilton and Kolton are meant as spiritual successors to Tingle. They are loners/outcasts obsessed with being something they are not. They travel by balloon. They have the head shape of Tingle with his hood on. I haven't seen anyone else talking about this, but I feel like it becomes obvious once you start to compare them. Thoughts?

Expecting toilet hand and probably at number1 😂😂

Shoutout to the captions!

I like how positive he talks about the weird people. Something we as humanity should take and learn.

Finally, the Tingle video is here! 😂

Lol his "friend" David Jr.

What the hell did you just call kakariko village ?

Tingle is so disturbing and weird overall, but physically it is Ooccoo. has anyone else noticed that the bird hasboobs?

Ganondorf is weirder (He wants to take over Hyrule)

I'mma be honest, I find Tingle SIGNIFICANTLY creepier than Ooccoo. Ooccoo looks weird, but they are perfectly pleasant in their dialogue, behavior, and implied actions. Tingle on the other hand has a number of lines and mannerism that just make me uncomfortable, he randomly forced David Jr to work for him in Windwaker (and that's without getting into any of the theories about why there's skulls in the room where the pictobox is stashed), and I still haven't forgiven him for charging me an arm and a leg to translate those charts in the gamecube version of Windwaker!

12:00. I'm sorry, but anything that looks like it has a claw where its nipples should be is just really F-ing bizarre!

Nice vid :D

Am I the only one who realizes that Hestu is Tingle?

I'd go with Zant, just cause of his personality alone (even tho I wouldn't call him weird, but he's still a very interesting and amazing villain to the series) tho the Happy Masked Salesman is also a very strange character even the hand in the toilet from Skyward Sword was also kinda strange or...how about the lady from Breath of the Wild that has a very strange connection to Guardians the Sheikah orb she takes care of don't know if she is in Tears of the Kingdom as I haven't come across her, but she kinda needs to be in a part 2 of this video

how many of the wells in _TOTK_ could actually function as water wells, rather than dank little hideouts?

Why isn’t anyone talking about the one lady that is obsessed with guardians

Hey HG 👋

Snot boy is by far the weirdest and most memorable to me 😂 the way he sucks it up every once in awhile and it moves when he bumps into you is wild Edit: I made this comment before I even made it past the intro and loved that you also called him Snot Boy 😂😂😂

more quality content!!!

12:09 Yes, it does

Bro how was Malo [Twilight Princess] not on here? He works hard to run a small business... and he is a baby.

Hi There Hyrule Gamer I thought You Might Be Interested to know that Phonogram Man From Ocarina Of Time Has A Name His Name Is Guru-Guru.

How is Agitha not on this list... "I know you have bugs"...

Captions? I dinna ken why ye think anyone would need those! (One-fourth Scot here)

Happy mask salesman

Tingle 😍

Every weird "LOZ" character, AND Counting...

So Tingle make it to the list but no Kilton or his brother or both of them?...

My favourite wierd character in Zelda is definitely Loone.

Tingle is basically the Wario of this series.

America has bad tastes because we need Tingle in the next Zelda game. Put him in Smash Bros too for good measure.

You will probably never see this but will you please do a theory about what links life would have looked like and how Totk would have gone if the champions never died.

8:24 Or just climb a tree on the cliff behind the shrine and glide over. Cause what is game design when all a game cares about is freedom?

I'm not a fan of the City in the Sky Area of Twilight Princess

day 180 of mentioning that on 5/6/2023 hyrule gamer made a video where, at 43.46, he spent 12 seconds simping about the ancient gerudo soldiers

Mailman from TP?

NO I LOST MY STREAK 😭😭 I was reading and didn’t check my KZfaq 😢💔

I'm older than Tingle now x.x sh*t!

day 111 of mentioning that on 6/6/2023 hyrule gamer made a video where, at 43.46, he spent 12 seconds simping about the ancient gerudo soldiers

💜

Personally, I pronounce it as “oak Ari a”

I don’t like Kilton or new Kilton at all… it’s like they were trying way too hard to make a weird character, because that’s just what _Zelda_ games do 🤷🏻‍♂️

I always thought Oocoo was a she?

not totally weird, but the pelican in totk who works for the newspaper is a minor oddball. My partner and I are still trying to figure out what he's saying when he says farewell ("suck ball"? "Suf-fer"?? "So far"???) . There are so many characters that are very odd... from Talon in Oot, to the mask seller (and the various versions of him), to crazy old Robbie in botw/totk, to the entire mushroom fandom at Hetano Village (like where did that come from?). My partner would list Koroks here though. He thinks something is wrong with them for hiding the way they do in the most random of places, literally everywhere. Its fun to tell him when i've found another.

gorse cuz he is just so dramatic

Dude, I love your channel, and love your work... But you'd better have a part 2 coming for this... AGITHA?!!?? How can you be a TP fan making a strange characters list and leave off the tween bug fanatic possible orphan living alone in a near mansion of a home in downtown castle town?! I'm not mad, just disappointed

Sorry HG, Tingle is a creeper and needs to STAY gone.

I HATE Tingle... He's 🤬 creepy

2+ mins talking about the Oocca and you didn't mention how this race was clearly created bc some Hylian out there made it with a Cucco. Also they have freaking 8 neck-titties.

3 minutes add. 3 minutes add. 3 minutes Blocked channel
