Unhappy Hyrule Castle Exploded?

Then why the hell is it completely fine in the Twilight Princess credits? I am sorry, but this question has been haunting my mind ever since the first time that I finished Twilight Princess, ugh, say, nearly 3 years ago?

This is a therozing thread, but I will explain things before giving my theroy about why Hyrule Castle and the town are seen perfectly fine after my minor ranting...

As we see after Midna attempts to kill Ganondrof using the Fused Shadows, Link and Zelda are twilported (yes, I founded that word) to somewhere south in Hyrule field, and they watch as the castle and, presumabely, the town are destroyed. You know... BOOOM!!!!! *rubble and smokes flies everywhere* And I know for a fact that Hyrule Castle and the town were destroyed; when I was riding Zelda, ugh, I mean Epona, I was checking from all angles of Hyrule field to see if the castle and town were still there... but there was nothing. We can even see Hyrule Castle all the way from Zora's Domain, but there was no sign of it or, presumably, its town after the explosion.

Along come the credits... and there isn't a single scratch. Even the nude goddess statues in the top room of the tower are back together. Not even a scratch in the room where you fought Ganondord. Interestingly, even Midna was fine! Why didn't Midna die in the explosion?

I have my theroy now that I have thought about it; Midna was clearly killed by Ganondorf and/or the explosion, but she is later seen in Hyrule field surrounded by the Light Spirits - they resurected her. It is safe to assume and my theroy that the Light Spirits brought Midina back to life, fixed both Hyrule Castle and Hyrule Castle Town, and then resurected everyone who was in the town - all at the request of the godesses.

If you doubt this, you must be an idiot.
So Midna, all of the people in town, and the castle survived the explosion, you say? And I thought I was crazy.

I said the above because I know for a fact that everyone is going to disagree with me, as per usual.

Please leave your theories, opnions, and virginity in a reply.

Re: Hyrule Castle Exploded?

this is completely imposible, because at the end you see that ganondorf getting stabbed through the chest, which causes him to release his black magic all through hyrule, that that causes all the bosses you defeated to reincarnate. THEN the light spirits turn the bosses good, and they are the ones who rebuilt everything. and since the black magic ganondorf used to bring back the bosses goes everywhere, it gets into the humans in the town, but everyone in castle town is soooo good, their souls balanced out the black magic and just caused them to become alive humans again. while midna, on the other hand, just had more darkness poured into her, and that brought her back to life.

so, matt, you are wrong once again because my totally awesome theory destroys yours.

Re: Hyrule Castle Exploded?

I disagree with your theory. I think that Link and Zelda touched the Triforce(because ganon doesn't have it anymore) and they wished that hyrule castle, etc. is like it was before.

There are two timelines(Child timeline and adult timeline) and one extra parallel world(as we see in LA(Koholint),MM(Termina) and PH(Oshus world).It's possible to get (e.g.) from the Child Timeline to Adult timeline by passing another portal that leads to whatever(LoZ for example).

You're saying that the Light Spirits are more powerful than the goddesses? Seriously?

You know, the editors just got lazy and superimposed the credits onto Hyrule Field.

I don't think that he thinks they are more powerful. maybe the goddesses are to great to preform such a menial task of labor.

Re: Hyrule Castle Exploded?

When prompted, Midna and the other people simply selected "Continue" from the "Game Over" screen.

Seriously, everyone survived for the same reason that Ganondorf's deaths are always portrayed as fading away or turning to dust or stone, because the game was made kid-friendly from the beginning. You should never expect a random massacre or excessive gore to be shown in a Zelda game.

A person can make excuses like, "they rebuilt the castle", but in the end the truth will still be that the castle is in the credits because it was pretty and the developers worked hard to make it.

Re: Hyrule Castle Exploded?



Seeing as how some time passed during the credits sequence in TP, it's obvious that the people just rebuilt the castle.

Time passed, but not enough to build a whole castle

During the battle against ganondorf in hyrule field we can see hyrule castle in good state behind the smoke, ganondorf don't do a big damage to hyrule castle, obviously people just need to do a little job to fix the statue of the godesses and the other little details.

Pix or it didn't happen! I once tried to locate anything behind the smoke but found nothing. The castle appears gone. It's fine in the credits because they're - well - credits, and not necessarily canon.

Re: Hyrule Castle Exploded?

Yeah, i think Midna wasn't killed, remember she still had the weird light force (wisdom, presumably) of Zelda inside her which protected her from Ganon's magic before (albeit through Zant that time). As for the castle, I'll have to agree that the credits aren't exactly the best thing to take as canon- more a 'hey, remember all these places!' for the viewer and the developers to show off their pretty work.

HOWEVER

Twiliported is the GREATEST WORD EVER, and I shall now deliberately replay TP once more so I can say 'hang on, I'm Twiliporting'

Kudos.

I've seen your topics around here and, uh, the reason why people disagree with you alot is because you're wrong quite a few times.

Your theory that Volvagia caused the geography shifts in TP, while logical, was wrong.

Your Vaati-Sheikah connection isn't really wrong, but way too much of it was blatantly made up and fanfiction.

Your TP-OoT geography theory was pretty good, but people disagreed because you didn't quite accept that retcons are possible, and you overcomplicated it.

Your empty Hyrule topic was not that great because you slipped the Oracles in between LttP and LA.

Also, with awesome quotes like this:

It's no wonder why people don't approach you open mindedly.

Re: Hyrule Castle Exploded?

I honestly haven't considered it seriously. Perhaps the castle was rebuilt, or perhaps the land was restored to its former glory when Ganondorf's evil was erased...who knows? *shrugs*

Maybe the credits aren't canon or big stuff up by Ninty.

They might be able to build quickly. Also, nearly a year may have gone by in the credits.

After the explosion Hyrule Castle no longer appears on the horizon, and when Link runs up the hill to see Midna in the ending you can see the ruins of Hyrule Castle in the distance.
