"Regardless... I will reshape the world as it was meant to be. I will crush any opposition. I will rule. That is what a king must do."

[@miitopiahero5134]

Do not look away. You witness a kings revival. And the birth of his new world.

[@HawksDellas]

One of the coldest Ganondorf lines of all time imo

[@FarmerSlayerFromTheEdoPeriod]

I WILL BE TAKING FAR MORE THAN YOUR ARM THIS TIME, BOY

[@Madness_Zenith68]

Do not look away you witness an king's revival

[@NotTheRealTerracreeper]

I will yet rule this land you will not stop me!

[@AdalHRivera]

Love how at 1:30 the theme even dares to sound solemn and sovereign, charging the mood with Ganondorf's royal purpose and resolve, only to instantly remind us that he is in fact the Demon King with the mother of all crescendos and big white letters

[@FarmerSlayerFromTheEdoPeriod]

Bro is Da (Michigan) Menace Unleashed

I loved that part. Hit me right where it intended, sent shivers first time I heard it.

[@frederickglass1583]

I literally muttered, "Tch, fuck you think this is, some sorta Broadway production? You ain't foolin' nobody, old man" when his title card appeared alongside that godly crescendo. Really got me going in order to kick his ass

1:48 The Menace Unleashed: Demon King Ganondorf. I got chills when his theme started playing.

_"It would have been more... satisfying to defeat a worthy foe."_ And then turn on the malice eyes

[@OTGGame]

Judging from the eyebrows moving when they appear, it looks like he actually had his eyes closed.

[@owenbyrne9850]

right before he opens his eyes, dehydrated ganondorf looking at your soul is pure nightmare fuel. I was showing someone photos once and forgot that that image of Ganondorf was next and it scared the crap out of them

[@glowstick1168]

1:44 "... That is what a king must do." Chills, man. F$#&ing chills.

Ganondorf giving off menacing Sephiroth vibes.

[@evanpimley5933]

1:10 has to be one of my favorite Ganondorf moments from this whole game, and a big part of that has to do with this music. I see it as Ganondorf's true theme, and it's made the Zonai vocals mirroring it in the prologue so much more interesting to me. I think that choice was meant to represent that despite Ganondorf being immobilized by Raru, his influence still seeps out across Hyrule. That's why the theme is "filtered" through those Zonai vocals. With all Zonai influences removed at 1:10, I think it's meant to solidify that Ganondorf is truly free and finally able to enact his plan. It's almost triumphant in a way.

[@Ramus_DDT]

100% agree.

[@97Multiphantom]

Ganondorf, in all of his appearances, has meant something. In Ocarina of Time he was tyrany, a lust for power and subjugation. In Wind Waker he was the past, a past so determined to persist that it refused to yield to the future. In Twilight Princess he was rage, a primal desire to lash out at those who crossed him. And when I heard the opening music of his fight, his theme played more grandiose and hauntingly than it ever had been before, I knew what he was. In Tears of the Kingdom, Ganondorf is the apocalypse. A one man armageddon. Defeat at his hands would not mean an eternity of subjugation, stagnation or retribution. It would mean the death of all living things, every man woman and child of every race, wiped from the face of the earth, to make way for an eternal age of malice and gloom and darkness and monsters. This, at long last, was Denise’s promised incarnation of hatred, come to bring about his revenge against the goddess and her hero.

[@desmondschneider5397]

That was the exact way I saw this Ganondorf too… The pure hatred of Demise incarnated.

[@raoullupin5412]

Honestly, it wouldn't be a bad idea, it'd be monumentally STUPID for Demise when the Tri-Force exists and is capable of warping reality when one has the full relic with a wish to have it be a cycle without end cause the Tri-Force is still in the goddess and her hero's hands and he said it as he effectively was having his last moments... and they or their reincarnation's could break the curse with the Tri-Force the moment they found out about it and how it has no end... but a one and done deal, with THIS Ganondorf being the incarnation of hatred, now that would explain a few things because Ganon still gets to rule as he always desires, but in this case he'd rule a kingdom of Demons and Monsters which is more than on the table for him and he'd also be able to get Demise his revenge,. Ultimately in this case with THIS incarnation of Ganondorf their goals would align alongside explaining why Ganon got so much more of a boost from a Secret Stone than with a PIECE OF THE DAMNED TRI-FORCE! It's because this Ganon and Demise's goals are perfectly in harmony with one another so he has access to Demise's power or at least his Curse and the associated power in this incarnation.

[@MicrowaveChris99]

@@desmondschneider5397hes basically the first reincarnation of demise

[@jitterycafe6515]

I never thought of it that way. He was extremely powerful with a secret stone and would have probably won the imprisoning war had Rauru not sacrificed himself to seal Ganondorf away. And this time, the sages join link to fight again, and Ganondorf mid-fight knocks them all out. If it was just them, he could have killed every single one of them. On top of all that, Demise was the Demon King, and now Ganondorf's title, is Demon King.

[@probenfetchak8076]

@@MicrowaveChris99Ganondorf embodies Demises Hatered he’s an incarnation not a reincarnation it’s a Hugh difference meaning Ganondorf and Demise are two separate entities

[@altermike3197]

The game calls him "Demon King" He basically turns back into Demise

[@newalebro]

His design is so close to demise (with the long hair, scales and darkish skin). If they do a third game in this world and make it a trilogy then the game should be centred around the origins of the blood moon and the return of demise after the sword was broken for so long. The main colour of the game would be red as botw’s was blue and totk’s was green, just thought I’d share my fan theory

[@Mittzys]

@@newalebro 3rd game would be cool but I don't know if they can use the same map a third time and have it still be interesting

[@newalebro]

@@Mittzys that’s true, maybe we could travel to different regions maybe?

[@TheTyrantAussie]

@@newalebro perhaps they will but with DLC????

[@JakeYolk]

@@newalebro please no third game, botw and totk are both in my top 5 games ive played but i cannot take a third game i wanna see new ideas

[@simulacrum1137]

Everyone be talking about 1:10, but I really wish they turned 2:04 - 2:29 into a full song, I just can't get enough of that OoT Ganondorf leitmotif. I know we already have the Phase 2 theme where the leitmotif is also present, but it's that calm but oppressive atmosphere and the 'get ready for battle' vibes I'm after

[@user-ol7bt4wp1j]

I love how you can hear the OOT boss theme at 2:04

[@roboat76]

its crazy to think that all this time when we played botw, ganondorf was there, right under our noses and the calamity was a mere fraction of his power leaking through raurus seal. its almost like totk ia both a sequel and prequel at the same time

[@matiascabalcetadelgado5901]

1:48 Easily the most evil version of Ganon's theme i've ever heard

[@4MonsterhunterStory]

The most evil 😂 yeah it truly sounds super duper evil

[@LunarySSF2]

they had probably already merged the music with the sound effects when they added it into the game this is surely the cutscene without the voice lines, which would get added later

[@edenaria5836]

2:09 don’t know why but this small little theme SLAPS SO HARD

The way the organ starts doing the main melody from the ganon battle in LTTP 😩

[@NeosparkJ80]

I’ve been waiting for this! Thank you!

[@nintendomusicplus7858]

Yeah, I've been wanting this too, but the music files for the pre-rendered cutscenes are coded differently than the others. Got it converted somehow in the end.

[@elrichardo1337]

gotta love the choir deliberately falling out of tune around 2:00, really adds to the demonic drama of this track

[@Mr.Spindle]

Guys, I just realized why the motif at 1:10 sounded so familiar! I’m like 90% sure it’s the start of Ganon’s theme when he transforms in Ocarina of Time.

Its also the prologue Theme

Something about 2:14 just sends shivers down my spine

[@owenbyrne9850]

I love the organ playing in the background from 1:24 to 1:48.

[@d00p58]

anyone else notice that 1:10 is the zonai chanting theme from the main totk theme as well as beneath hyrule castle, just now more audible and with real sounding voices to symbolize that ganondorf isn’t just a phantom or mummy anymore, he’s back in the flesh and ready to conquer

[@smanly3274]

Ganondorf: I have an army. Rauru: We have an unchained, unhinged hero who can build weapons of unholy destruction and create torture chambers to terrorize your servants. Oh, and he wields the sword that seals the darkness.

“How disappointing. This world should be shrouded in darkness, not bathed in insufferable light. All of these weak, peace-loving cowards running rampant. It would have been more… satisfying to overcome a worthy foe.” *rehydrates* “Regardless, I will reshape this world as it was meant to be. I will crush any opposition. I will rule. That is what a king must do.” The Menace Unleashed *DEMON KING GANONDORF* “Do not look away. You witness a kings revival, and the birth of his new world!” *one fight sequence thats suspiciously similar to Phantom Ganon later* *slight chuckle* “What a feeling. I had almost forgotten the thrill of battle. That feeling as blood surges in my veins. I am not even nearing the limits of my power.” *Ganondorf goes Super Saiyan 3 and healthbar doubles* Master of the Secret Stone *DEMON KING GANONDORF* *one 6v6 phantom ganon match later* *Ganondorf says nothing as he powers up and blows away the sages, taunting Link in the process* *one rightful ass beating later* “I will yet rule this land, you will not stop me! A mere mortal, will not stand in my way! *rips magic rock out of head* My body, my mind, everything! I’ll sacrifice it all to destroy you. And cast this world into eternal night!” *Ganondorf becomes too angry to die and swallows the Secret Stone whole, transforming into the Demon Dragon. Absolutely fantastic boss and I loved every bit of it

[@quicogil4565]

As disappointing as Ganondorf's story might be, this scene with this music was great, and so was the fight.
