The intro to this video was legit shock, and 100% inspired this video.
Given the success I had analysing Sonics nemesis Doctor Eggman (Robotnik to those salty few), I thought it was only fitting I analysed Ganon in a similar way. Link has been the second most popular character on the channel after all!

The thing I really love about OoT Ganon is the way the game never gives you a good look at him. There's something uniquely scary about being assaulted by this giant, ambiguous silhouette with a pair of bright eyes poking out.

Came to the comments to say exactly this. The fact that the arena is so dark and you only catch glimpses of him in flashes of lightning is unnerving. It’s fantastic. There is also something unnerving about the title card: Ganon. He doesn’t get a cute moniker/summary like every other boss in the game, just “Ganon.” It sells the climactic tension & finality of this fight I remember as a kid I tried to pause the game/check Navi as lightning struck to get a better look at him 😅

The 3DS Ocarina of Time remake fight was a very pretty one, but I’m with the camp that finds the original atmosphere to be superior. Kid me was FLIPPING HER MIND during that fight because she could barely see this imposing figure unless lightning cracked, and sweet Jesus was it intimidating. THAT was one heck of a Ganon.

Razor Blade 247 Same. Although OoT Ganondorf had a strong first half (you know, where he’s actually cunning. He doesn’t really do anything in the second half but play an organ while he waits for Link to show up. Which the organ’s dope but...it’s all kinda a letdown? Then again, personally I find OoT overhyped with its story and gameplay.) The Human Ganondorf fight in TP is EPIC and uses everything you learn (which, actual combat skills, with the final blow be the first one you learn. It’s so satisfying.) Windwaker Ganondorf is...melancholic, almost to the point of being just shy of “benevolent” (like, he kinda has a firm stance on NOT killing children, as the Wrong Girls, although imprisoned, aren’t actually physically harmed. And initially he doesn’t really desire to harm Link and Zelda despite knocking them both unconscious easily...wellll...until he snaps when the King stole his Wish (and it results in Hyrule getting destroyed-destroyed afterall)) Clearly a strong lawful evil TP’s Boar Ganon is honestly my favorite design for a boar ganon. I didn’t really find it...animalistic? Well, no more than any other PigGanon. Less so, in many ways. Just if you want raw power outside of a human form? Here you go. (Especially since we already had WolfLink. By all rights Zelda should’ve had a form, too.)

Breath of the Wild - Dark Beast Ganon Breath of the Wild - Calamity Ganon (In a category of his own, I guess) (I'm not ranking CDi, but I'm tempted to do so for the cartoon one) So yeah. The best ones to me of each category are Four Swords Adventures, Ocarina of Time, and Hyrule Warriors. Ocarina's version didn't really have much competition in it's own category, but it's the best overall in my opinion, so far at least. Each category is in order of where it's top pick is overall, basically. Sorry Calamity Ganon.

Loved this video, but personally i probably would have gone with the oracle design. It manages to stay true to the original design while also being both threatening and visually appealing. Sure, ocarina was probably his most impactful appearance, and maybe his best moment, but i feel like the hardcore "demon of pure evil" look doesn't capture all the elements of Ganon so much as it makes for an incredible final boss. also, if you're looking for more characters to do, i would suggest mega man (the classic one, not every mega man ever. classic MM has more than enough designs)

I'm really fond of the early blue pig design for Ganon, the Oracle one in particular. I really like the cape and the trident is just such a unique weapon that you don't see touched on in video games that much, especially not one that spawns energy blasts and can be thrown like a boomerang. That being said the OoT Demon King design is just too good to ignore, so I guess those two are tied for the best in my eyes.

One of the interesting thing with the Calamity is that you aren't fighting Ganon in the same way as in the other games. The Calamity isn't his physical body. Ganon was sealed (still is) in the depths underneath Hyrule Castle. The Calamity is a manifestation of his will. In the beginning of BotW, it was stated that Ganon has given up on reincarnation and became Calamity Ganon. It's not entirely accurate. He didn't give up because he kept losing. He was unable to reincarnate due to the fact he was sealed, kept in a perpetual state between life and death as shown in BotW 2 trailer. Calamity Ganon was his plan B. I think that BotW 2 Ganon has the potential to be the Best Ganon.

To be fair, rather than the one pictured in the video (which is from the Barcode Battler), Ganon's official art from A Link to the Past is the following: gamepedia.cursecdn.com/zelda_gamepedia_en/9/97/ALttP_Ganon_Artwork.png?version=c3e966428c3f64be4917582e1a893531 Not all that different, but certainly more intimidating. Doesn't make a huge difference, but I wanted to point it out for those unaware. Ocarina of Time Ganon is my favorite as well, both subjectively due to Ocarina of Time being my most fondly-remembered Zelda game and objectively, putting any and all personal bias aside.

I think i rather prefer the design from Oracle of ages/seasons I don't dislike the concept of Ganon as a beast, but that only works if it has Ganondorf as a counterpart. Ganon by itself was somewhat known as a leader of forces of evil on titles previous to Ocarina. At the very least we could say he was a rational being. After that, the games always try to separate Ganon into a beast and a human to reflect different sides of the character. Personally, i like Ganondorf, but i also like the idea of this demon pig overlord with powerful strength, magic but also cunning to lead an army. Maybe because i find more appealing to fight that than a mindless beast. Dunnow. *Shrugs* Anyway, great video as always! :)

One important thing to note is how Twilight Princess’s Gannon is supposed to be a foil to link’s own beast form in the game. It’s why he’s feral, and it’s why you take him down in wolf form. It’s still far from my favorite, (Ocarina, obviously) but it’s still a better Gannon for twilight princess than any other Gannon design would have been.

There's a fire boss in the game that you saw for a little bit in the reveal trailer for the game. It had me HYPED because for some reason I thought they'd remade the Ocarina of time ending to open the game. I was so dissapointed when that didn't happen lol. But yeah it's a good design and very appropriate, just not my fave.

In my opinion the best is 4 swords adventures gonon, I don't know, something about the 3d eras designs for ganon never quite did it for me, OoT, TP, HW, and BotW all had really good designs, but none of them were ever quite Ganon to me, I'd like to see a game where either Ganondorf's transformation into Ganon causes Ganon to have a 3d version of his classic 2d design, or take Ganondorf out of the picture altogether and have it just be Classic Ganon from the start, BotW did have the chucking Ganondorf half of it, but it was far from Classic Ganon in design, it's certainly not bad, in fact it's probably my favorite of the 3d games, but it's still not quite Ganon to me

You forgot to include the design Ganon had in "Captain N: The Game Master". As bland as the '80s cartoon design of Ganon is, I can't help but wonder if the developers at Nintendo took some influence from it. I mean, it's the first one to display the tusks and spiked helmet that later designs would also feature.

@@ArtistMarkFlynn It's kinda the same basic design, but the added detail and shading makes the character look more intimidating than he did in the original show. I think it might've been the same animation studio that did the "Real Ghostbusters" cartoon, which might explain his more grotesque appearance in that episode.

The Artist Mark Flynn That’s good to hear! There’s already enough material to work with for Pac-Man’s designs by Namco, but when you take into consideration the 80s US designs, before they really had any style guide and just let artists go nuts making whatever design they can off of a yellow ball, that opens up a LOT of discussion. I think a video on that would be a great way to celebrate Pac’s 40th anniversary in 2020.

To be absolutely fair, the Ganon design from Zelda's Adventure isn't actually shown in this video; that's some other boss named Llort. Ganon has a more impressive (although still rather generic) "medieval fantasy demon" design that wouldn't look too out-of-place in Lord of the Rings, and it's easier to appreciate it when you see the original stop motion model in full detail: zelda.gamepedia.com/File:Gannon_010.jpg That being said, it doesn't hold a candle when compared to the more iconic porcine design of Ganon in the official Nintendo games, or the unique abomination of Calamity Ganon. But, still, credit where it's due.

Ganon is acually not reincarnating. Most of the time he just gets sealed away but its most of the time the same guy. Its always Ganandorf who simpley never revertet bag to his Gerudo Bodey. The only times he reincarnatet was in the Child Timline after Twilight Princess. The Ganon we see in the Oracle Games is a butched resurection from Link to the past. And its the same Ganon that gets resurectet in Link Between Worlds. And I can only assume that somhow Ganon was able to stay alife after the fused Ganon was defeatet because he returned in the first Zelda Game. The only confirmed reincarnatet Ganon is in 4 Swords Advanture. And...MAYBE Calamaty Ganon? Thats...harder to say if thats a Reincarnation ore still the same guy from Ocarina.

Ocarina of Time is just quintessential Legend Of Zelda in its design choices for me. Every character and prop looks exactly how it does when I picture them in my head and it's not even the first game I played. It's like the platonic ideal. It has the playfulness and color in the early segments but all of the immersive realism in the later segments. It's the perfect blend of Twilight Princess and the Gameboy games. Zelda, but taken seriously. Taken seriously, but still Zelda.
