[@anthonynycholas4230]

That'd be a bad idea as a) if just one ended up as a flop it'll screw the rest afterward and b) would most likely hurt sales of the games themselves. A one-off non-canon movie would be perfectly acceptable as it wouldn't hurt sales and wouldn't affect the timeline(s) of the franchise's storyline.

[@spacetaco2792]

They should do a mini-series with each episode retelling major moments from the games as animated shorts, look up Pokémon Generations here on KZbin to see exactly what I mean

[@YTPs2Glin]

We have the "Hero's Purpose" series who start after Majora's Mask with a lot of reference and a great respect of the canon. Just search ;)

[@Jenkinsmum]

This Ghibli style really works with the Zelda franchise. This really has strong reminders of "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" as well as Marvel Productions' "Dungeons & Dragons". Imagine a Xmas hat being the Minish Cap.

I mean Princess Mononoke is almost a 1:1 of Breath of the Wild. 1) Hero wears a blue tunic 2) Hero rides a 4 legged animal 3) The entire story starts regarding a demonic boar creature 4) Princess Mononoke (San) is more attuned with the spiritual world than the human world and wants to restore what she perceives as balance to the world.

[@Eternal_Emerald]

I wish this was a real series we got back then. Art style is too good for this setting. Favourite part is 1:27 as the blue much like in BotW fits very well with the glow.

[@robbiewalker2831]

*1:28

[@KennyMaximum]

@@robbiewalker2831 When the photo shows up it's actually still on 1:27 for a moment so he's technically still correct and everyone probably knows what he means anyway.

[@kathesowamusic7435]

I’d say Breath of the Wild is very based on Ghibli, actually. The music has sort of a Hisaishi style, the guardians, beasts and the ancient aesthetic in general, look really similar to machines and robots you’d see in a Ghibli movie like Castle in the Sky. Plus, the ambience with plants conquering the ruins of civilisation, as well as creatures such as the spirit of the mountain (even the malice, with that dark color and texture) , really remind me of Mononoke, for instance.

[@angelhernandezvega6064]

It is confirmed to be largely influenced by studio ghibli, especially Princess Mononoke

I think Twilight Princess would offer the best animated movie adaptation, especially in Ghibli’s style. It would be such a cast of unique designs as well as such a great story already there. The manga is the first step, and what a great first step it is!

If there's a Zelda movie on its way,I would prefer it in the style where Link would monologue and speak to himself in his entire journey while limiting his interaction and speech with other characters.This will keep him as a mute protagonist while also gave him some way to speak without spoiling his personality.

[@diesegeties8918]

But the story wut properly go like this "Chapter 1: "The Lone Wanderer" Link was once a famous hero in Hyrule, but after rescuing his beloved Princess Zelda, he decided he needed a break. So he set off to travel the world and experience new adventures. During his journey, Link came across the land of Termina, where he came across a strange mask shop. The shopkeeper, an old man named Sakon, offered Link a special mask, which he called the Mask of Majora described. Link was curious about the mask and decided to buy it. As he put on the mask, the world around him suddenly changed and a somber voice whispered, "I am Majora, the soul of this mask. I will use you to carry out my will in this world." Link was suddenly enveloped in a black mist and found himself in a gloomy city that he didn't recognise. Looking around, he noticed that the residents were threatened by a mysterious force they knew as the "Dark Moon". Link met a young girl named Tael who told him that in three days the "Dark Moon" would fall on the city and destroy all life. Tael said that the only ones who could change Termina's fate were the four Children of the Moon, who have special powers. Link realized that he had a responsibility to find and unite the Children of the Moon in order to change the fate of Termina. This is the end of chapter 1. In the next chapter, Link will continue his journey to find the children of the moon and save Termina from the sinking."
