UGH I LOVE YOUR MUSIC! I just wish i can have it on itunes and apple play so i can continue to hear your beautiful music

[@tonightiwillsee]

Nintendo needs to hire you!😁

[@robert-joshuamcfaddin7850]

regional.at. edith: That's true. They could honestly use them. If they did, they could get an anime of the LoZ once again.

[@CEOofKivotos]

Yup

[@windwaker6164]

Definitely

[@KAJones-pd7pq]

I love the animation styles for their games but I honestly think if Nintendo got him, their games would be better at telling stories. There's just something about how each character moves, reacts, and their eyes that could make one believe they were real. There's just something with his style that makes me like each and every character. Except for The Happy Mask Salesman -- No matter what, he is really creepy to me!

[@esthers5876]

You are a master storyteller. Especially how you say that every aspect of the video should tell the story - visuals, text, music, sound, timing, expressions. They can each tell a different part of the scene and contribute to the whole. Thank you for sharing your process!

[@emym.8828]

That's actually the first time I saw your face, and I don't know why it made me so emotional, but I feel even more attached to your video now. I guess it's just seeing the human being behind the pseudo, it makes it real, genuine ? Thank you for sharing your work with us, it's always a pleasure ! And very nice to learn how you work and create your animations

[@OceanOfSand]

I found your channel about a year ago and never looked back. Your talent and passion and truly shows in the animation.

[@carlodipersio4042]

Its a wonder that ur channel isnt againts the government

[@Random1567]

The scene with Link running from Saria in the original game, I always thought/pictured it as Link pushing himself to leave, because he might change his mind and stay if he embraces her or stays too long. Because he knows he has to go but doesn’t want to, so in order to keep true to what he must do, he runs. He runs because he must, and perhaps so she doesn’t see him crying. He wants to look tough in front of her. Imo, its one of the best scenes in any Zelda game even without seeing Links face, and without any dialogue once he starts backing up. I thought it was powerful. I feel like at least some of that was the intent of the developers.

[@Jamo-uy4pn]

your so awesome . I cryed because of one of your videos

[@tonightiwillsee]

Jamo 5002 Same here

[@IzzyJulienZanefangal]

I cried at so many the one where link was scared and tried to save Keaton made me cry. the one where link was fighting himself / father not sure who it was but that made me cry, it was so beautiful! All three of the parts of his lost seires made me cry they were perfect and amazing and I really want to see a part four of link coming back! He is so good! He makes me cry Everytime! 😭😜😭

[@tonightiwillsee]

@@IzzyJulienZanefangal same bro

[@fini8641]

Jamo 5002 just 1! All these vids make me cry

[@shane-the-shiekah898]

Hasn't everyone cried?

[@OneToxicPixel]

Watching this made me realize: all of you guys put so much effort into those videos. That is so amazing to see and it makes me appreciate it even more! I love how all of you really have passion for what you do. Also, you have a valid point when you said Link in the games is most of the times pretty much emotionless. And I think you found a great solution. By still keeping him a 'silent protagonist' while giving him more emotions, it makes it easier for me to relate to him. Because I think that is the actual fun when you play a game, trying to understand the emotions of a protagonist that you have been playing the whole time like he represents you in the game. Yeah, when something really bad happens, Link shows some emotions, but mostly he is shocked or determined or angry, nothing really too deep. You give him more emotions, like sadness, regrets, true happiness. You show us that he can be more like a real person, but still represent what I feel, what i think and honestly, Nintendo should get a little bit of inspiration from your videos. Would improve the games and could easily turn them into my favorite franchise (even though they are still great games) Unfortunately, I'm really bad when it comes to computer stuff... so I probably won't animate anything anytime soon xD I'll focus on other things instead I guess... and maybe in a few years I'll think about it again... Because it's never too late to learn new stuff right? :D Anyway, I've been writing so much unrelated things again lol Better end this comment. You are all awesome, thanks for the great work and if anything I wrote sounds kinda strange, I apologize. I'm from Germany. Me no good in English. (That one was on purpose tho)

[@hylianmoss]

all your videos make me feel so happy and I find it interesting how such a beautiful masterpiece starts and is developed

[@random_guy4320]

xlucyx he is vary talented

[@Sakanamoto]

The fact you don’t use voice overs and the way you use the text is perfect. You capture so much with the way you do it, and I feel not only is it better this way, but you capture the feel of the games too. You bring the whole thing to life. You tell things in ways words can’t, and it’s so much more deeper and pulls everyone in as they watch it. Absolutely amazing.

[@2renn]

I think Nintendo needs to remake Ocarina of Time but it's animated entirely by you... that's how good you are.

[@2renn]

Although that WOULD be very stressful and hard... maybe not that but Nintendo still needs to hire you

[@jessicajones641]

My husband and I were just talking about this when we were playing BoTW (for like the 10th time). I wish they would allow Link to emote more, especially in cut scenes. This is part of the reason I fell in love with your animations!! You do an amazing job portraying emotions in these animations. There have been a few times I legit cried lol. Your work is beautiful!

[@Haferkoko]

I think you're probably my favorite person on this website for making such incredible videos that tell such beautiful heart-wrenching dramatic stories. It is rare to see someone nowadays work with such precision and put their heart and soul into it, but that's just what we need more of in this world so please keep on doing what you do and hopefully you'll inspire many others to start animating because you're absolutely amazing!

[@reallyLink]

That's impressive! You truly are one of the best, who gives more emotion to the Legend of Zelda series. All of your videos that I watched so far, are awesome and it's amazing to know that in every new video, you care about it to make it emotional and meaningful. Keep it up! You truly are awesome! 😉

[@edgardodanielgarciaminaya9]

I love your work. I dont wanna bother you but would interesting if you create the fight between Link and Dark Link. Too the persecution of Skull Kid.

[@ashley.33]

To see how it's all done behind the scenes is just..awesome. The amount of emotion, time, patience, dedication, and accuracy you put into your animations is truly incredible. I feel like if you ever made a movie out of this (if you wanted to), it would become very popular and viewers would be very excited to see it. I'm confident that your next big animation will be pretty freaking awesome. I can't wait for it to come out, i'll be looking forward to watching it. Thank you 😊

[@zephyr986]

You are really good at this. I love the way you give so much emotion to people who don’t speak. It’s incredible I love it.

[@arnaud7008]

I really like your creations, I think they're really well done and can very well emotionally touch people, so keep up the great the work :)

[@justarandomgirl1617]

It's pretty amazing if you ask me.:-P That part at 4:12 this is how I imagine him if he talked Saria:*gives him her fairy ocarina* Link:*grabs and looks at it* " well...uh thanks.I uh* slowly backs away* .... gotta go save the world..so yeah. *Runs* Saria: that son of a *end of cutscene*.

[@thelegendofhuman2754]

just a Random girl imagine just being Saria, he says he gotta save the world, your just thinking that thats the weirdest thing hes ever said

[@wired4933]

Your drawings and you can play instruments, too... You're so incredibly talented.

[@cami4887]

You're admiration for the franchise is so pure im crying in the club

[@breezybreeze8316]

I'm not sure if you've ever revealed your face before but you're adorable. The genuine passion you have for animation makes me so happy and reminds me that there's pure people out there. Looking forward to your future projects!

[@Drekxduex]

You've come so far. I am really inspired and thank you for the videos. I can really tell the effort and passion you put into each animated piece.

[@MrGamelover23]

More behind the scenes! Like dead sound's behind the scenes, I love these (and as an animator you need to see his work.) I love seeing the creative process behind works of art like these.

[@LoneHunter_15]

You are so talented!! Thank you so much for bringing all of us more life and story to this fantastic universe! Keep doing what you’re doing and continue to bring us all exquisite emotions through these animations. :)

[@JujYFru1T]

aaaaaah hullo! this is fascinating. even your sketches are beautiful!! you talking about the original cutscene made me realize, I never realized how much emotion I was inserting into the cutscenes that wasn't there. like, I always thought Link running away/saying nothing bc he was about to cry/had too many emotions to handle so instead of letting Saria see he just freaked out. i didn't agree w/ and it made me sad, but i figured "well he's just a kid".... that's why i was so happy finding your remake vids, especially OoT's ending one-- suddly everything I always "saw" in my head was on the screen. cathartic but also incredibly painful; so much has happened since then...... losing my twinbro who who my Nintendo "partner" just heaps emotion onto already emotional things... anyway sorry for the ramble your vids make me think ehehe. Thanks for having a part about the music!!! PS I'm really interested in pencil art bc I wanna learn to draw and pencils seem the easiest way to start for me... knowing that they can still be elaborate makes me have hope/more confidence

[@saturn_zero]

Your vids are amazing. Truly inspiring. Edit- Omg thank you so much MajorLink.

[@Goldendragon101]

Whenever I see that you upload I generally get excited to see what you came out with and every time I love it. The creative spins that you put on the Legend of Zelda series warms my heart cause its one of my favorite series and to see someone take it and make things as awesome as you do is great it and the dedication you have to do anime this a inspiration. Also I do enjoy behind the scenes videos they give so much insight on the work process and how you break it down love ittt. Alright let me stop geeking out lol...

[@jdingers0220]

So cool to see how this amazing content is made. Love the videos you give Link character and the stories meaning.

[@juliagrim4546]

Why are your videos underrated. I love everything about you and your work. I cry almost every time I watch one of your videos. I love this keep it up. Don't ever give up.

[@ravioplays9639]

OMG! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG! I'M HALF DEAD! THANK YOU SHAWN! YOU ARE A GOD AMONG MEN!

[@raphcrafter]

I just discoverd your channel. Your putting so much efforts for us ! Ocarina of time is one ofnthe best games for me. And your... recreating those beautiful moments. Continue on this way. I hope I'll be good like you in the future for making animations :3

[@wolflovecraft8488]

It was so nice of you to share the behind the scenes look at what you do. It is also kind of you to read all the comments that people have given you. I think you are a special person and what you do with your passion really does help and inspire many to push on and live there dreams. I wish you the best on your future project and hope it is all you want it to be.

[@sandyyao6576]

That's really amazing that you have made soooo many animations or series all in high qualities.And thank ya all for making this video,I got to know more about how those fabulous animations are made. Also thank to Brock & Reade, that songs are impressive！

[@analizagurrea498]

You're the only animator that inspires me to do my own animations so thank you for that Sean

[@alek52ooo1]

Thank you Sean! You are the greatest! I'm not even kidding you, I think you make the greatest Zelda animations ever, trumping the real cutscenes even. I feel bad for saying this, but I hope you stay on this child era/ocarina of time track. Ocarina of time is my absolute favorite and seeing all this makes me die. I have this "problem"(its not a problem but its so much it could be seen as bad) where I get SOOO invested into the lore and stories of video games and movies, and OoT takes the cake. So seeing these makes me the happiest person ever!

[@heartblazer2199]

Your videos bring happiness to many I have cried multiple times the Zelda series saved my life when I was nine years old and helps me find the light it the darkest of times and and you help with that also thank you

[@dennisjohnson1809]

Excellent job majorlink keep it up I like all your vids

[@ClockworkOrangeImagination]

I misread the title because I thought you were actually leaving KZbin lol. Love your content man, I hope it improves over time as some stuff can be a little rough over the years but overall your storytelling outshines the animation quality so I can wholesomely forgive it.

[@raidenkaji]

I love EVERYTHING you do man. Especially with the Fierce Deity, since that's basically my favorite thing ever created. Keep up the great work my dude!

[@zeldalink8087]

That is so cool 😁!!! Man I live your videos!!! I love how you give Link and his friends emotion, especially Link... I know when I played Ocarina Of Time and Saria gave us our first Ocarina. I was like cool then okay because Link ran without saying anything or showing emotion... Honestly I love your version way more then the original. I think it is cool what you do MajorLink. Keep up your fantastic, wonderful, fabulous work 😁...

[@Lolz172]

Dude you are awesome! You gave the game such a beautiful depth of emotion that touches me to the core.. Thank you. You are truly a gift!

[@ChristyTina22]

Thank you for sharing this. Thank you both for all the work you do for us. Anyone who criticizes your work should be directed to this video.

[@キノ-s6m]

動画の技術めっちゃ高い！ 次の動画も楽しみにしてます！☺

[@Tiffervescent]

Thanks for this and for all of your incredible creations. The Zelda franchise is masterful at telling simple yet impactful stories, while also leaving room for the player to experience and relate on many different levels. This is something I love about Zelda. There are many games and series out there with more complex stories and fleshed out characters. But Zelda is special in the way it tells its stories. You've conveyed those feelings incredibly well - like if your animations were inserted into Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, etc. I feel like they would mesh seamlessly with the game and take nothing away from the way the stories are told. I love how your videos give us a deeper look into the narrative while remaining true to the original content. You are amazing! Thank you for all that you do.

[@LiquidChamploo]

Their next project is definitely going to be more cinematic. BOTW was so beautiful I know that's an element they bring back, I hope they find you man!

[@MrBones-ke4vb]

Such an amazing video Shaun! It's always great to see the process, and you've portrayed your veiw very well.

[@PoliteTia]

I knew this was a labor of love. Your channel came to my line as 'Recommended' It was the Keaton video. I subscribed to you channel a few minutes of viewing it. Thank you! This is a nice post for Friday the 13th.

[@fujoshina8957]

I had just gotten into the zelda fandom and I was having the same problems as you did with Links' lack of reactions. I wanted Link to have more of a personality and character. Your animations fixed that for me and I look at Link a lot more differently now. I am bummed I don't have the nostalgia others have but I sure as hell am gonna create those memories! I am amazed by the quality of your work and I will continue to support you and your projects! After all, it is your apparent passion for the Zelda games that encouraged me to dive deeper into the Legend of Zelda lore and adventure.

[@DinkDonny]

A true inspiration.✨🌺

[@mikecrosoft9845]

Beautiful 😭. Please do more of these. And never stop making those animation. I Love You😊

Very interesting... you have great patience and skill, but what I see the most of is passion. It drives you to work so hard simply for your enjoyment, and ours. Thank you for taking your passion and giving us these great videos, we need more folks like you to create these pieces of art! I know you've inspired me even more to show my passion for LoZ, you've exposed me to animating my favorite video game characters, and that's really cool to me; didn't think much about the possibilities before. I'm just getting into digital/pencil drawing, and plan to draw these characters, maybe as a hobby. It's really fun, I'm getting to know these characters a lot better through it! Keep up the good work! Subscribed!
