Fiercedeity and kafei are both parrallells of link

My title probably sounds a little weird .

people assume Kafei is link's double in termina , i believe this to be correct.
people also assume Fierce deity is a double of link.i believe this to be correct too

let me explain why i think this and how come i think this.

Kafei is a playable character . they are both young and were adults at one time.
Kafei does the same kinds of things as link does . saves the wedding mask ,and lives in a house by himself near a grassy area.

Fierce deity is also playable to some extent , but he looks like link more than kafei. he has a sword . his tunic looks like links , but white and armor on it.
his hat is the same as link's hat.

but how come Kafei and FD are doubles of link? simple to answer.

If you notice Fierce deity's eyes , they indicate that the mask has no soul , but the power of the body that the mask used to be.

now if someone trapped Fierce deity in a mask , but he loses his soul ; i think that he reincarnated as Kafei . If they are truly parallels of link they can reincarnate just like the Hyrule links.

now this is a theory upon another bigger theory ,
" does link even have a parallel? "

Well, I don't think Link helping Kafei to get the Couples Mask has anything to do with them being parallells. I mean, I think Link would help him even if they weren't.
Also, I would hardly describe the Laundry Pool as a grassy area. It only contains ONE patch of grass.

The characters being playable doesn't necessarily mean that they are "like" Link. And their clothes aren't allt that similar. Green tunic vs. White tunic with armour.

I dont see how Kafei would be Link's parallel. Parallel characters between Hyrule and Termina look alike, Kafei and Link look nothing alike. Also i dont think that Link has a parallel at all.... same goes for Ganondorf and Zelda. The only way i can see that Link, Ganondorf and Zelda do have parallels is to imagine that maybe Termina is bigger than we see and their parallels may be located else where. Other than that we are not given evidence of Link's paralell so i dont see a reason to believe that he does have one.... especially it being Kafei or Fierce diety.

I tend to think either Link has no double, or his double is FD.
I'm not really sold on the Kafei idea.

I have a little trouble seeing how the similar appearance between Fierce Deity Link and Link is evidence that they are parallels though... The masks don't make you look exactly like the person they represent, and the masks themselves don't look like them either.

For example, neither Mikau nor Darmani look too specifically like Zora or Goron Link, and while we don't have much of the Deku to compare with, since we assume that it was the Deku Butlers son, we can assume they look different enough for you to remind the Butler of his son. Really it would almost appear that the masks make you look like a Link version of the race in question, with a few hints of the original person. Therefore any direct resemblance to Link is a little too sketchy for me to agree that FD is Links counterpart.

I don't really think that Kafei either looks or acts enough like Link to be his counterpart either.

^ Whatever he said...

How about this...
Some japanese people decided that they could use old art to make characters in their new game easier to make.
They also decided to use some new kid that you can play as for about 10 seconds into the game.
They lastly chose to make a demi-god-like character to give some cool features to the game.
I repeat lastly: There are, for the love of crud, no doubles!

proof? we can never be too sure that you are correct.

Very bad FanFic. Kafei isn't the double of Link.

It's not a fanfic, it's a theory.


Personally I dont see why people connect Kafei to Link. Fierce Diety I completely understand, and even agree with. But Kafei?

The only connection I see is the fact that he's a playable character :XD

I really don't connect Fierce Deity with Link. Sure, the Fierce Deity mask resembles Link, I can understand that. FD Link obviously looks like Link, since FD is "possessing" him, or using Link''s body and mind as a channel for its own power. Obviously, Link with the FD mask on is going to look like an intense, super powered Link.

But the parallels end there. The Fierce Deity is just that, an embodiment of rage, power and ferocity. Link is none of these, in anyway shape or form. He has really never once showed an angry or "fierce" side. He fights hard, but with a clean heart, and for good intentions, never with ferocity. Sure, we could possibly assume Link is a completely evil being, since we never hear him speak, or know his true thoughts, but that's highly unlikely. XD

Kafei though, there are possible parallels...

We can assume Kafei's problems started roughly when the Moon began to fall on Termina, which is roughly when Link showed up. Both of them are in tight spots, Link is tasked with saving the whole damn world, and Kafei's love life is on the brink. Further more, Link is a mere Deku Scrub, Kafei is a child, they are both in weak, physically small, and effectively powerless forms. What a life. -__-;

They each have to face their own problems to get to their goals. In order to save Termina, and go home, Link must get out of his Deku form, and eventually fight his way through all the temples and such to battle Majora. Kafei must learn what happened to himself, overcome the fact he's a child, hide from Anju then break into Sakon's hideout to get his mask back, so he can propose.

Link is known for his courage, which he puts to great use throughout his adventures. Kafei obviously faces his fears, and conquers hardship to get what he needs done, done. Sure, he's no warrior, but he still overcomes his problems, much like Link.

The two also call on eachother's aide, and they work together to help one another. Where Link is "mute" and silent, Kafei is outspoken. Where Link is strong and a fighter, Kafei is weak, and has no way to fight. They must help one another to overcome.

So, point-in-case, there is a higher number of logical parallels between Kafei and Link, than The Fierce Deity and Link. It sure makes a lot more sense than fanfiction. It's a very legit theory.

Actually it doesnt make sense.
It just seems like you're picking out everything you want, and omitting things that would make this theory impossible.

This parallel world theory should not be taken seriously. I don't remember it ever being mentioned as a parallel world in the game, only in the manual. Even then, they were simply trying to explain away Nintendo's recycling of old models and ideas instead of admitting their own laziness. The parallel world concept is entirely irrelevant to the whole story of MM, too, if you think about it.

I didnt say it was like, canon or anything. >> Im not highly educated on the topic, fill me in on what wouldn't work.

Notsil, just a minor correction:
Kafei was turned into a child a month before the game begins.

Other than that, I thought you brought up some good points.
However, on the FD, the mask looks like Link before you put it on. It has the face [roughly] of adult Link when you just look at it, and aren't wearing it.
