I think my favorite thing that never gets mentioned is that Ghirahim and Fi are references to the Muramasa and Masamune legend in Japanese myth Ghirahim is the muramasa sword which is bloodthirsty and egotistical Fi is the masamune blade which is calm and rational.

@@newt2120 yeah that’s a very different sword. I’m talking about the two swords in Japanese myth that have to do with two blacksmiths testing out their swords with one winning because his sword would only cut things that deserved (or at least wouldn’t cut living things) while the other sword would cut everything and therefore was bloodthirsty. That’s what I meant by Fi and Ghirahim are a reference to that.

I love how Ghirahim in all the dialogue that we know makes him out to be somewhat more evil than Ganondorf because he takes sheer enjoyment out of inflicting pain - typical trait of a crazy sadist, I suspect. It would be interesting to see him return as a villain in the series perhaps as a loyal servant to Ganondorf?

Pff,, who's Grand-dad Dorf? Ghirahim only serves worthy villains, not tired old memories. Zelda itself as a series made massive mistakes in keeping on going back and back again to Gdorf. Ghirahim is sadly a rarity - Miyamoto and co showing they have the Best of ideas - and this time unlike Zant; they didn't actually toss in old Gradanddorf to ruin everything as the 'baddest ego'' yet again. Skyward maybe flawed as a game in it's own right through being too linear- but it's still a Masterpiece.

Besides his taunting sadism, part of what I found fascinating about Ghirahim is that he simultaneously has narcissistic traits, and yet, he has an incredible need for Demise's approval, doing absolutely everything he can to please him, which, by all means, is a trait more associated with dependence and not narcissism. Despite this, he's totally ok with being basically a servant, because it's *DEMISE* we're talking about here. This leads me to consider the following about Ghirahim's thought process, "Demise is the greatest, and as his weapon, this means that I, by extension, am the 2nd Greatest, and everyone else is garbage compared to me." His ego could very well stem from him placing Demise on such a huge pedastal, and that's so neat to think about! Also noteable, as a blade, he is incapable of reaching his full power without a wielder, someone to *control him* rather than him trying to control Zelda, and Link. It's such a neat and subtle contrast to his constant need to be in control of everything for sake of his goal, yet also plays into his conviction by displaying that due to his need to fulfill his role, he's willing to throw aside whatever pride he has for sake of the only one he views as better than himself. His master, Demise.

Fi spent all that time in sword form waiting for Link, but by the end of their journey she expresses that she's feeling emotions so it can happen. I wonder if all spirits start out like AI and develop with time as opposed to being created/born with fully developed personalities

For me, Ghirahim really stands out as Link's true greatest foe. Whereas most villains did test Link, they mostly stood in the way of his motivation to face the challenges of protecting others. Ghirahim knows the best way to attack your enemy is to prey on what they care about, in essence, he attacks his heart.

15:08 I feel this theory has at least some merit to it. Demise had incredible power over the denizens of the earth before he was sealed, possibly leading to Ghirahim idolizing him, and said idolization being the motive for reviving him. However, Link's victory against Demise could've completely flipped G's view, as all that work going into reviving Demise was for nothing. I still don't think Ghirahim will return though, considering that the sword disappears into purple fragments (similar to the purple smoke enemies disappear into), and not into the usual diamond shapes associated with his teleportation.

this is a great analysis, but i would like to mention one thing. i believe the reason ghirahim doesnt call you by name before lanayru is because he never learned it. link never speaks to him, and i doubt hes hearing it from anywhere else. he only starts to call you by name at lanayru bc thats when he learns it, when impa and zelda are saying it. i believe he would call you by name before if he knew it, bc he certainly was thinking abt it to try to call you by it at the earth temple. the only problem being he didnt know it. i think the same applies to impa. he never heard her name before lanayru, and i believe its only said once, and i believe its at that moment impa’s barrier is also breaking. so it was probably drowned out by that noise, as well as his own laughter, so he likely didnt hear it well and wasnt sure if that was correct. but overall, this was a great video. keep up the good work, my dude. some of the lines got a laugh out of me too!

I agree somewhat with the idea of Ghirahim dying, and I adore this character study of him, but if he did return in BOTW 2 (with Link going back up into the sky islands the Hylians used to live on, connecting it pretty clearly back to Skyward Sword, plus it's other connections) I think it'd make sense too. even though Skyward Sword was "The First" in the timeline, so he would have been gone for a very long time, maybe it'd be similar to Demise being sealed away and having to wait for Ghirahim to resurrect/summon him? maybe Ganon would see Ghirahim (or rather the legends of him) as beneficial to his cause, and would resurrect/summon him? I could never see Ghirahim serving anyone else but Demise, but Ganon could possibly pull him in with promise that Demise could be resurrected. Since there are theories of Fi coming back in BOTW 2 I really hope Ghirahim would be brought back as well. Whether as a side villain (which I think is the most likely) or as a second sword to Link (like a duel wielding thing- but like I said earlier I can't see him serving another, and if Nintendo ever went down this route I feel it'd be a waiting to betray Link at the end to try and resurrect Demise) it would be a great come back. Though it would probably be easiest for Nintendo to leave him gone instead of bringing him back as that'd cause more complications to gameplay, and I think it would be difficult to have Ghirahim as a villain in a open world instead of a story driven one. and if he was coming back Nintendo probably would've hinted at it more openly for more game hype since he's a fan favorite. Either way I hope with everything that he wasn't just a one off villain, with so much potential he would be great to have in future games. Sorry this was so ranty, I never get to talk about Ghirahim with anyone so a character study of him's comment section seemed like the best place lol

I'm not so sure that Girahim died at the end of Skyward Sword. Rather, I believe that he teleported off to carry out his master's last wish of ensuring that the Hylians would eternally suffer at the hands of Demise's curse by being the one to cast the curse itself.

It would be kinda interesting to think about that- Ghirahim fought Link many times, right? But he still didn't get defeated. After everything he went through, he didn't die while fighting him. But when it got to Demise, it took only one fight for Demise to get defeated. So it would be cool if the power got into Ghirahim's head so much that he would believe that since Demise is dead and that Ghirahim himself is the strongest now. Or he would just get existential crisis for serving someone "weak", when he thought that Demise is the strongest. Dunno, it would be interesting. It would be interesting to have a game where Ghirahim has some sort of revenge arc.

I’d like to posit my own interpretation. Ghirahim *is* a psychopath, in my opinion. His loyalty to Demise is pure fanaticism, and he doesn’t see Demise as a person; rather, Demise is just a way to cause mass destruction and death. Ghirahim isn’t a loyal servant of Demise, he’s a loyal servant of the concept of suffering itself, something that they both take great pleasure in inflicting. It’s also worth noting that psychopaths and sociopaths do have emotions, especially if they possess narcissistic traits like Ghirahim clearly does.

ghirahim is the demise (dark) counterpart to Fi, the blade the counterpart to the mastersword, and as Demise is the counterpart to Hylia. I'm watching, so I'll wait to see if you touch on that

I’ve never noticed this before, but in both his flesh-and-blood and sword spirit form, he has long, pointy ears like a Hylian. It’s said that the reason Hylians have these ears is because they’re the closest to the gods/to hear the gods/etc. What’s up with that? Demise has regular rounded ears. Why would he make his sword resemble his enemy, the goddess Hylia?

I'll just say it; forget everyone's ''favoritest magnificence'' blabla called Breath1. Ghirahim single-handedly (swordedly?!) revived the 3D Zelda series. Ocarina and Majora were my last favorite 3D Zeldas before SS; both are timeless Masterpieces. But after TP so brutally stuck in a knife in Zant- and winded up just going back to grand-dad Dorf again and _again,_ I practically fell out of love with the series. Until Skyward of course. Breath1's 'plot' simply doesn't hold a candle to the magnificence that is Ghirahim - Zelda's ''3D Agahnim''.

Tbh what I’ve gathered from seeing Ghirahim in Skyward Sword is that he’s queer coded. As a queer myself, I feel that he is one of the top characters in the game because of his flamboyant personality, and humorous sadism. Like the moment I saw his first cutscene, I knew he wasn’t straight. And ppl can say that “it’s an interpretation” like sure. But there’s a history of queer coding. All in all the Nintendo failed successfully in making a villain that is very gay and loveable LOL

I noticed that do didn't mention that he's a queer coded villain. I don't exactly like seeing queer people villainized untastefully in my media. Relying on that old trope is the reason he's not on my favorite list of Zelda characters. Acknowledging that would have added greater depth to this analysis.

I don't believe Ghirahim died. I stand by GameBandit's theory that before Demise disappeared, he transfered his power to Ghirahim to start the neverending cycle of the reincarnation of himself, Link, and Zelda, in hopes that, even though he didn't win this time, he might in the future. Here's the link to the video if anyone's interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnbIh6qnh8ZjY9E

Thank you for making this vid. I really love Ghirahim and is one of my favourite characters of all games. Also I love playing against him. I think a lot people doesnt appreciate how well designed is Ghirahim. I have known a lot of people and everytime when I ask what they think of him is "Very gay and weird" in a very despective way. Seriously, a comeback of him will be the greatest to the series in all this time
