BOTW Zelda's narrative is about how much she sucks at being Princess Zelda, how incredibly restrictive and stressful she finds that role. The tension created between Princess Zelda, the ideal, a long established tradition of divinely connected princesses, and Princess Zelda, the reality, who would much rather spend her time digging for frogs and studying ancient technology and can never seem to live up to the ideal is the beating heart of BOTW's story. Nearly every time we see Zelda she's cracking and straining under the stress of trying to be something she simply isn't, resenting her role almost as much as she resents herself for failing to fill it properly. So yeah I do wonder how anyone came to the conclusion that she's cis. The only way you could make her more trans is to make it canon.
#my posts#loz#literally will never stop baffling me how everyone's decided that obviously botw LINK is trans but ZELDA is the gender conforming cis girl#were you not paying attention to the narrative and instead just like. looking at a thin guy with a small ponytail#don't answer that question#also no i have not payed totk yet no i will not accept criticism based on what happens in that game#if this gets contradicted totk is simply wrong and i'm right. have a nice day#(only half joking)#botw
