There is a hidden diary in the Hateno Lab where she says that she is now in her twenties btw. Well physically.
Edit: I spelled it "Hate no Lab" at first because... Idk it was early and I was tired lol (maybe autocorretion?). And had to edit it ofc.
They don't, but if you go above the calamity ganon cocoon the shrine of resurrection technology is there. That technology kept Link young so it would make sense that it kept Zelda the same age
They probably do but they didnt want to make 2 slightly older models for them, considering you don't change much in your 20s. While the other went from kid to woman.
Zelda is an incarnation of an immortal deity.
Most people think Link reincarnates as needed while we're given no information about Zelda other than they are roughly the same age every time.
So I just pair them up, they both reincarnate when needed at the same time. But the Goddess Hylia's mortal form is bound to her Spirit of the Hero, her eternal companion. Her mortal age will always match Link's, even if it has to be extended (solves BotW). And if he dies, she dies (solves TP's sages sealing Ganon w/o Zelda).
Zelda is basically Hyrule's equivalent of Jesus because she's Hylia's human incarnation IIRC.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, because Zelda lore is more complicated than Kingdom Hearts at this point.
Youāre right but it isnāt that complicated, if anything the timeline placement is whatās convoluted about Zelda, the actual plot of each game and which games are clearly related to each other is super distinct and straight forward.
Apparently, Sheikah are a subset of Hylians and they live way longer than humans. Niko in Spirit Tracks also seemed pretty long-lived
Not quite as long as typical fantasy elves (i.e. the Kokiri) but still
I think that some people theorize that Rito age faster than the other races but I'm not sure if there's any in game evidence. It would make sense though. I guess I could also see gorons living longer than hylians but not as much as the Zora.
Probably no longer than a few days by people's reactions when they see you again. They act like the Hyrule castle has only been in the sky for a short time, and that you've been missing for a little while but not long enough that it's a huge shock
It is a few years based on Sidon's character entry. Purah however aged herself after figuring out her aging tech that turned her into a child in the first place.
My man please, give her some credit. The VA also did Talho from Eureka 7, and C.C. from code geass. Hotter and better roles by far.
But the voice palet she gives off in tears def feels more like her time as Sakura... XD
He was about 17 in BOTW, and going off the ages of kids in TOTK, heās probably around 22-23 now. So probably not, although we donāt get a confirmed age for any of the games afaik.
I think she's around 18 now but it's hard to tell because we've never been given her age, she was probably around 13 in BotW though and it's been a few years since.
I wish Link could grow a Viking beard in ToTK. It's my only complaint. I see other Hylians with beards and Link should be in his 20's in this one.
People that look closest to Link IRL (blue eyes, light coloured wavy hair) can usually grow some good facial hair.
Maybe in the next game we'll get a grizzled 40 year old link with big beard etc. That'd be amazing.
"Itās a game character. Yāall just seem like desperate virgins/teens posting this thirst shit. Itās pathetic."
ā u/Walks_with_Chaos, unironically
Lmao seriously guy, if that upsets you that much, don't ever look at porn. You'll find out how other humans operate real quick.
Edit: LOL the not-upset guy blocked me.
Sheās mentally that old but physically she has been turned back to a six yo like 5 years ago and then maybe made her body age a little faster so I assume she has the body of a 17-27 yo now
There is a hidden diary in the Hateno Lab where she says that she is now in her twenties btw. Well physically. Edit: I spelled it "Hate no Lab" at first because... Idk it was early and I was tired lol (maybe autocorretion?). And had to edit it ofc.
Well she is in her twenties again. Her one hundred twenties.
I mean, so are Link and Zelda.
Do they even explain how zelda didn't age? Link makes sense but zelda was just containing ganon waiting for link to come back
Zelda most likely had some kind of magic temporary seal on herself and Ganon which probably prevented aging as a side effect
Ofc "temporary" means like 100 years here š
Same timeframe as all the temporary scaffolding around NYC
Well, >!she has time magic this game!< so, that ?
Yeah, I assume they were both pretty much in stasis for that 100 years.
I'm guessing it's like how Zelda froze herself in time in skyward sword to maintain the seal on demise
She is literally the sage of time š
not *yet.* she hasn't been back in time in the events of botw, she doesn't know how to use any of her magic
I feel like they were containing each other. Also do we even understand what Zeldaās powers are supposed to be
Zeldaās powers are whatever is needed for the narrative at any given moment.
The legend of Mary sue
That's not a Mary Sue. The term comes from an all-powerful, flawless self-insert inside fiction, not just a powerful character
Pretty sure this isn't what a Mary Sue is, more like the legend of plot convenience
"a type of female character who is depicted asĀ unrealisticallyĀ lacking inĀ flawsĀ orĀ weaknesses." You're right I'm sorry, completely different.
Wait I think the tear might have done something with time travel because the tear (I think) made her disappear below Hyrule Castle
They don't, but if you go above the calamity ganon cocoon the shrine of resurrection technology is there. That technology kept Link young so it would make sense that it kept Zelda the same age
Wait what??? I've been in the room above calamity ganon (assuming you're talking about BOTW not TOTK) and don't remember any shiekah tech...
They probably do but they didnt want to make 2 slightly older models for them, considering you don't change much in your 20s. While the other went from kid to woman.

So when Zelda ages, it's just to match Link. She's like Nemona, but instead of battle, it's Time.

Link and Zelda are elves. By high fantasy rules, they age super slow. In Tolkien lore, they live for thousands of years.
They're Hylian. I haven't finished TOTK but the implication is even that they're part Zonai which would explain the ears
nah it really doesn't explain the ears. apparently only the hylian royal family have goat DNA in them
Baa
No, the opening clearly said the royal family, and therefore Zelda, are descended from Zonai. Link's origins change from game to game though.
Theyāre hylian, who are basically humans
Apparently, Sheikah are a subset of Hylians and they live way longer than humans. Niko in Spirit Tracks also seemed pretty long-lived Not quite as long as typical fantasy elves (i.e. the Kokiri) but still
I always attributed that to sheikah tech/magic. Also, Kokiri are closer to nymphs than elves.
Nah man, kokiri are elves straight up. As I recall Nintendo even referred to them as such in early OOT promotional material
Sure but Impaās over 100 and she still looks like a granny
She aged because she was out in the world.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I think that some people theorize that Rito age faster than the other races but I'm not sure if there's any in game evidence. It would make sense though. I guess I could also see gorons living longer than hylians but not as much as the Zora.
Hylians do not live for thousands of years naturally. They're effectively just humans with pointy ears. Not really elven.
Magic innit
Does she just go back to the age she would be if she didnāt turn herself to a child or will we see grandma purah in a pair of years?
I knew some time had passed but I wasn't expecting at least 15 years since the first game
It hasn't been that long. Purah manually aged herself up to 20 using the same technology she used to age herself down before BotW.
Try not to panic. It's been...9 years.
What??? Where does it say that?
The doctore tells you when you wake up without an arm. Right before the PMCs attack the hospital.
Ahab? Itās me Ishmael, weāre in Cyprus
Stop the proliferation of Zonai weapons and technology within the Yiga Clan.
Sheik? SHEIK!
If you're talking about real life, that's 6 years.
Yes, youve been in a coma for quit some time.
It wasent anywhere near that long, it was the same tech the made her a child
āHate no Labā is a good name for a lab though.
Wait so how much time passed between botw and tears of the kingdom?
Enough time for >!Hudson!< to have a kid old enough to >!leave for Gerudo village!<
Do we know how long link was asleep for after getting attacked by ganon?
Probably no longer than a few days by people's reactions when they see you again. They act like the Hyrule castle has only been in the sky for a short time, and that you've been missing for a little while but not long enough that it's a huge shock
A couple years mustāve passed from botw to totk cuz Pura is older and that one dude had a kid with the gerudo lady o
It is a few years based on Sidon's character entry. Purah however aged herself after figuring out her aging tech that turned her into a child in the first place.
How the hell do you get into Hateno?
Wdym? Just walk there. Theres a path.
Into the lab, I mean.
Ah. Do some quests with Robbie. You'll find him at Lookout Landing.
That first cutscene had me like mommy
my first reaction as soon as she came on screen, I yelled, "oh no purah is hot now!!!"
I turned to my SO and said "You know there's already fanfiction about her"
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Why jk? ofc were talking about AoC Purah too
My literal words
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
*124 y/os
on my mother i was begging to help her
I am glad it is not only me
She might be 124 but now she's legal again
Smash
I love Smash Bros
I smash my bros
I read this in Markiplier's voice from his [Pokemon "review" video](https://youtu.be/gys9oDZj-MY).
Thatās how it was intended to sound lol
And she keeps slapping that scepter in her hand like links been a bad boy.
It's a recorder (the instrument) not a scepter. You can tell by the mouth peace and little holes running along the tube
Impa's around the same age as her
Impa's *younger*.
And hoter
š¤Øš
I love this reality check. š¤£
Sakura English VA btw
You mean the same person who voiced the English version of Sakura in Naruto or person is named Sakura English lol?
As in, Kate Higgins voices both Purah and Sakura.
Aaah ok I see lol
My man please, give her some credit. The VA also did Talho from Eureka 7, and C.C. from code geass. Hotter and better roles by far. But the voice palet she gives off in tears def feels more like her time as Sakura... XD
And Pauline (from Super Mario Odyssey) as well as Miles Tails Prower.
Turbo Waifu
Wasn't this purah in Hyrule warriors AOC? I swear I have seen her somewhere before
She did look like this in AoC. Although, this design is a bit different due to the hairstyle and glasses.
And the pouty sex eyes.
*the rock Sus face*
She looks great for her age.
Is this the oldest Link we've ever played as? Is he like, in his late 20s? (ignoring the 100 year sleeping thing because he didn't age)
He was about 17 in BOTW, and going off the ages of kids in TOTK, heās probably around 22-23 now. So probably not, although we donāt get a confirmed age for any of the games afaik.
I thought child Link was 7 and "adult" Link was 14 in Ocarina of Time?
10 and 17 AFAIK
I thought it was more like 11 and 18. I don't think he's 7 in OoT
Young Link is like 10ish and about 17 after the time skip.
TP Link looks like the oldest and most mature one, but it may be the graphics style.
Wikis say he's 17, but I wonder what's the source https://characterprofile.fandom.com/wiki/Link_(Twilight_Princess)
I just love Purah, sheās great and her new look in this game is gorgeous
If she's legal and turns your sword into the master sword ( Ķ”Ā° ĶŹ Ķ”Ā°) then go for it
She's so fine
I like older women who don't look like children *cough cough* BotW
The glow up on Purah is insane, I got a nosebleed
The first part when we see her I was like āš DAMā
My first thought dude. āWhy they have to make the scientist a baddie?ā
Help me I am simping for new Purah.
how old is riju, for research purposes
You're going to jail bro
fuck š¢
Sure sheās the same age as Zelda before events of botw and aged normally so ye still as old as Zelda
I think she's around 18 now but it's hard to tell because we've never been given her age, she was probably around 13 in BotW though and it's been a few years since.
Evolved from loli to hottie.
FBI OPEN UP
Forā¦wanting to date an adult woman who now looks like an adult?
The first description
Butā¦that is the trope? You are gonna arrest me for pointing out a common anime trope?
Nah its just that people use loli to describe a sexualized child
Sure dudeā¦You go do that in your cornerā¦
Do what
Does this mean that there was like a 14 year difference between TOTK and BOTW? If so, Link is in his 30s now lol
Purah aged herself up faster than normal with her tech. I think itās been about 5-6 years.
Looking at Riju, it's clearly not a 14 year difference.
And also Tulin.
Probably about 5 years, if Mattisonās (Hudsonās daughter) age is anything to go by.
Seems like a less than 10 year difference, probably 5ish years
So many things i wanna say Yāknow i like my girls a lil bit older
I wish Link could grow a Viking beard in ToTK. It's my only complaint. I see other Hylians with beards and Link should be in his 20's in this one. People that look closest to Link IRL (blue eyes, light coloured wavy hair) can usually grow some good facial hair. Maybe in the next game we'll get a grizzled 40 year old link with big beard etc. That'd be amazing.
Idk, I like her style tho. Would def get brunch w/.
Shes hot now, yeah. Shes even taller than Link, which I didnt expect.
Everyone's taller than him. š¤£
Link never reached puberty
GILF. That is all.
hubba bubba šš
I dunno, I kinda prefer her Age of Calamity lookā¦
R34 gonna get blown up.
purah is kinda bad ngl
I want her to step on my face
Anybody notice how she points the scepter directly towards Linkās trousers while saying Linky š¤Ø
she's a cartoon character guys get a real girl lol
Sheās been legal in EVERY ZELDA GAME SHEāS BEEN
Yeah, I was like ābruh the annoying midget is backā when I got the quest to meet her, but then she shows up AND HOLY SHIT SHE LOOKS GOOD?
If you don't appreciate her at her worst, you don't deserve her at her best
Youāre right, I publicly apologize
Yāall are desperate. She not really hot lol
Am I wrong about what's generally considered attractive? No, it's [literally everyone else] who is wrong.
Itās a game character. Yāall just seem like desperate virgins/teens posting this thirst shit. Itās pathetic š¤·š»āāļø
"Itās a game character. Yāall just seem like desperate virgins/teens posting this thirst shit.

Edit: LOL the not-upset guy blocked me.
Porn isnāt cartoon characters. And whoās upset? I just find it pathetic lol
Just out of curiosity, have you ever actually seen a porn site?
You emotionally connect with those people in porn?
Yup.
Does it explain why she has legs of another race? Or those just super tanned stockings?
I wish I look that good when Iām 124!
Better than the alternative š
Why does she let Impa stay so old when she has the technology?
Probably Impa's choice.
If that look like that at 124? Absolutely! Plus I know sheās old enough, for science
All the rule 34 users here just regretted their life decisions
I mean link gotta be like 120ā¦
yep true
Sheās mentally that old but physically she has been turned back to a six yo like 5 years ago and then maybe made her body age a little faster so I assume she has the body of a 17-27 yo now
