(EARLY ACCESS) The Legend of Zelda Hero's Purpose Episode 6

It's finally here... Episode 6!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you all for your incredible dedication to my work, this channel, and this series. It took longer than expected to get this episode out, but you all stuck with me every step of the way. I can't express how much that means to me.

This episode is a true beast—it keeps delivering until the very last frame, so make sure to WATCH UNTIL THE END!

I can't promise Episode 7 will come any faster, but I can guarantee that the surprises and action will never stop. Production and animation will keep improving, and the story will always be our top priority!

In the final week before public release, we'll still be tweaking some dialogue and sound effects, but the animation will likely stay the same. Sometimes, after watching a video 40 million times, I feel like it can always sound and read better! So, look out for those final touches in the public release!

After it goes live, I’ll be posting more and more cut content from this episode. There were so many versions of this episode, and I’m a little embarrassed to show them, but it’ll be really cool to see how it all came together. Stay tuned for that!

I can’t thank you enough for all the support!

P.S. If I missed any legendary-tier names, please let me know! I'm 99% sure I got them all but gimme a nudge if I missed yours.

Comments

please dont push yourself. dont try to overwork. dont do more than you can in less time than it needs to take. since episode one it has been so clear how much you care for this story! take the time, no matter how long. i want to see this story to the end but not if its NOT the story you want to tell, and that can always change with the whims of inspiration! thank you for this most beautiful tale. a real, legend of zelda

I’m going to rank every episode so far! Disclaimer there is not a single bad episode in this series, that’s how incredible Hero’s Purpose truly is: #1: Episode 6: 73 minutes of pure brilliance! The action, music and emotional stakes made this worth every minute of the two year wait #2: Episode 2: Despite a short runtime, the reunion of Zelda and Link with that well deserved hug made for one of the most heartwarming moments in all of Zelda. Link and Shiek’s fight is also a highlight #3: Episode 5: Talk about edge of your seat intensity throughout. Perfectly executed fight scenes and jaw dropping moments of character development #4: Episode 3: Link and Saria’s meeting is one of the most emotional moments of any Zelda related media out there but Shiek and Link on the bridge deserves praise as well #5: Episode 4: Link and Malon’s scene at the beginning is just as heartwarming and bittersweet as Zelda and Link’s hug and Ganondorf’s flashback to cursing the Deku Tree is brilliant. The build up to the battle is chef’s kiss #6: Episode 1: Little slower but does its job setting everything up. Link and Skull Kid reuniting is incredibly sweet

Connor Vallecillo

I just joined Legendary tier the day you posted the trailer. I do have one request if you do plan on adding my name to the list.

Final hours was actually done by another composer! They came in, last minute to help us finish this, let us use there song :) https://youtu.be/zsuhqr857ao?si=iB5KV0u-btvUGs4f

Sean

DivineGalaxyJC

it was peak and my jaw was open for 90% of it. my food is cold now

Takito

Will come out Sunday! Called Courage (Spirit of Link)

Sean

Will there be a release of all the songs used in this? The finally fight scene towards the end where he uses all his strength but loses his eye . What is that song name?

Victor Perez

I have watched this episode 4 times already and I'm still at a loss of word. I got a patreon account only to support you and thanks you for bringing the closure I didn't know I needed to the tragic story of my childhood hero/crush. My heart truly broke as I understood at the same time as Tatl that link didn't plan to get out of the forest, burying my last delusional hope of a happy ending for him. The last frame of him resting against the gossip stone finished to crush the last pieces of my heart. I'm sure I have seen a fanart of the hero's shade in this very position against this stone somewhere but I can't find it anymore.... Thanks for everything Majorlink. It is a true honor to have my name at the end of this masterpiece and feel as a tiny part of this incredible journey. Warmest bravo from France <3

Sandra Chaudanson

Major, this is brilliant. All the threads are coming together in ways I wouldn’t have guessed. The way I slammed my drink on the ground when Skull Kidd knowing the song of time came up? Every single reference every single mechanic was used so purposefully and so meaningfully. Even after all this time on the series it still is so rooted in the world. Im one of those fans that feels like I have this series practically memorized and brother you and your team don’t miss a damn THING in that lore. Worth every penny. Link’s emotional journey feels earned and you did the titular question justice. I’ll be here until you bring our hero home in episode 7. Thank you.

Robin Grooms

In 25 years of playing and adoring zelda games. I have never experienced as powerful, or fantastic a bit of content for Zelda, as Hero's Purpose. All credit to you and the team. This is absolutely wonderful, cannot wait to see where it goes from here.

Kornelius Gulbrandsen

The nod to the hero who protected Goddess Hylia herself from the manga was *chefs kiss*

Butch J

These fights! All of them, bone chilling, amazing work!

Butch J

Incredible

Trevor Rogers

Absolute Cinema 🖐️🤚

predusk

It’s not allowing me to watch it on the app😩😭

Lawrence Gant

Thank you so much! A poster has always been in the back of my head.. gotta figure a way to do it legally or without looking sketchy! one day maybe!

Sean

Finally got around to watching this with my partner just now and we both loved it! The script was on point, the fights were next level, and the music was perfect. You and your team really do the hero of times extended story justice and I consider cannon. Thank you and all of your hard work. It has inspired me on so many levels. Out of all the Patreons I subscribed to and eventually canceled your has stood the test of time. When I cull my subs I never consider axing yours. You and your teams work mean a lot to me. I was so hyped to see my name in the credits on the first column LETS GOOOO! Now that its out if you gotta take a break take it. Yall deserve it and know I will still be here to support you and spreading the good word that is Major Link to my friends who haven't seen your content yet. Also if you guys could release a poster, I would buy it.

Ezokewn

😉

Sean

Watched it like 4 time already, I'm still blown away each time This is insanely good, so worth the wait ... Gonna watch again

Cnaan Ben Hur

So this Isn’t the end?

Lobo_Grz

Watched all the episodes. Read ALL the comments. There's nothing left for me to say that hasn't already been said. You deserve nothing but the highest praise. This story is everything. Depression. Anxiety. Trauma. Hope. Perserverance. Sacrifice. The list goes on. I don't even know how to feel right now but chances are good I won't sleep tonight. Major Sean, I love you, in the most non-creepy fangirl way that's possible. Your work is canon. Guess I did have something to say after all.... One last thing: please please please let that not be the end of our Hero yet! What about his kids??!! Give "Malink" a chance!!! =P

Alexandra Bolick

I think alot of what you are making feels like the natural conclusion, and I'm not saying this just because I love this series. I, as a fan, always wondered WHO can injure Link in a way like he was in TP when he was the Hero's Spirit (missing an eye). I think this is a really good explanation on what could of happened. I am interested why Ganondorf wouldn't remember Link in TP and I hope that gets addressed in this somehow. On a side note, seeing Link and Ganondorf fight in such a way remind me greatly of Cloud ve Sephiroth in Final Fantasy 7. While that fight had great meaning, and I hold it in high regard, this build up from Link as a kid, fighting him as adult in such a manner, is what I think about in the battle with good and evil in Zelda. I ALWAYS wanted a fight with Ganon/Ganondorf that felt like this. While I'm sure I may never get it, I feel blessed that I got to see it done so perfectly.

Justin Mcmullen

I've watched certain scenes like the ones with all the Links and others multiple times a day since the release and even rewatched the whole thing through a few times. I'm going through a stressful point in my life and watching this helps me feel calm and gives me hope ❤️

Fallon O'Connor

Thank you so much! Your words mean so much to me and the team!

Sean

Wow, im gonna sound like a broken record to all these comments... but I'm at a loss for words. This episode now departing into areas we have no information about was a scary endeavor.. I had plans for this section from the beginning, but making it was a leap of faith. It makes my day to hear the love for the episode, Thank you so much for the message.

Sean

My wonderful fellow Zelda fan I salute you. From the bottom of this 30 year old mans heart thank you once again. I was 4 years old when Ocarina of Time came out and it has been the game a long with Majoras Mask that has still to this day stuck with me the most out of the whole franchise. You deliver so many beautiful details and spin the continuation of the story in a way I think we all could absolutely see possible. You are creating something magical and I cannot thank you enough for your wonderful work. Please take some well deserved rest and when you are ready we will all gladly be ready for episode 7 of A Hero's Purpose. From Sweden with a lot of grattitude Espardeh

Espardeh

*Claps hands several times in applause* What need be said....? Yet another. Well made, beautifully composed, and heartfelt continuation of this story...within this episode. If anything shall give justice and proper honor towards the tragedy of the Hero of Time. Your story, would have to and continue to be it. The Harmony and Acknowledgement of the past from the progenitor. "The Hero of the Sky". To an even younger chosen youth, lost in a similar cycle of fate and emotional/mental turmoil....given not just mentorship or wisdom. But companionship in the most prolific sense, showing how the roots started and "why" it should be important to them and everyone to continue striving onward! Even if you don't have all the answers that you seek. What matters....is that "one" answer you HAVE found and fully realized. Dude, genuinely. Have no fear about the time that is spent on this project you seem to love, just as much those of us here. It WAS well worth the passage of time between each entry and it IS well worth continuing to support said effort. So long as the writing spirit continues to dwell within you and the passion to continue exploring this story is present....I can claim with absolute resolve, my membership will never vanish and remain firm. Even when the Hero's Purpose is fulfilled. My support will continue to remain right on this site, should it continue to remain open. And before I drown you out any further with my post. Let me reiterate the "Hero's" words in retrospect to you. ......Thank you, Majorlink. For sharing this adventure and story with me. And with us. *He holds his hand out across the other Patreon and Youtube members.*

Firestar01234

This was worth it buying the legendary. It was worth the wait. I’m glad to see you improved your animation skills

Aintewitherspoon 018

I had to get legendary.. I've been waiting so long for this. I had the tissues ready and it was nothing but perfection.

Logan Clarke

Is it wrong that I also really want to know if Malon is pregnant or not? Because of Link’s background in Twilight Princess being a farmer and knowing Epona’s Song by heart and that you can hear Malon’s singing voice in Hyrule Field at night, I 100% believe that theory.

Connor Vallecillo

You have no idea what this meant to me. Thank you. I really am at a lost for words. That's all I can really say. Thank you.

Justin Mcmullen

This is completely insane, TP here we come BABYY. Im so glad that you exist MajorLink ❤️🥹

Joey

Honestly, I'm nearly at a loss for words. This was incredible. The fight between Ganondorf and Link was amazing and so brutal; I thought they both killed each other on at least four separate occasions. Link finally awoke to his true purpose of being the hope for people while Ganondorf seems to have been fully consumed by malice and Demise. And the references, holy crap: all the Links, including the one from the Hyrule Historia comic, the quotes from Ganondorf from Tears of the Kingdom, Ganondorf falling in a similar fashion as his seal from OoT, Demise saying he "will house his power" just as Ganondorf said to Zant, among so many more. And Link having the last word to Ganondorf/Demise by inverting the latter's speech from Skyward Sword...such a great way to end an amazing episode. The idea that the Lost Woods consumed the original Hyrule is such a clever way to explain why the Temple of Time is in the forest in Twilight Princess. I believe there was also a glimpse of the Forest Temple from TP. This was such a love letter to all Zelda fans. Beyond that, the animations, music, script, sound effects were amazing. You should be proud, Sean. Thank you for this amazing series and I already can't wait for the next episode. Take all of the time you need, we'll be here ready to watch what happens next.

Herald Savior

And so well done keeping in mind the condition we find Faron woods as a region as well as Hyrule Castle Town in TP! And I assume there will be a huge battle in the Temple of Time where Ganondorf will rip apart the Temple! And the sages at Ganondorf’s execution at The Arbiter’s Grounds being human specters with floating masks will be explained by your next episode, which I assume is the last for this story? Also, I assume Malon is currently pregnant? These are speculations, of course. I’m not going to spoil anything for others reading comments before watching, but your attention to detail is perfect! You are arranging the state of Hyrule’s locales and peoples in such a way that every scene and every flash back from TP will fit in nicely. OOT’s setup and this as the middle story, and Twilight Princess being the end of the story fits so freaking perfectly! I could rave about this all night, posting more and more comments acknowledging just how fantastic this is! I’m an OOT MEGA FAN, much to the point where I’ve been building Lego versions of everything in that game! And as a mega fan, I bestow upon you my nomination of being the greatest Zelda writer period. And I mean the greatest; not even the writers of the damn series AIN’T GOT NOTHING ON YOU!!!!

Cody Bertrand

I love that you keep in mind not just that certain races are gone (like the Kokiri being gone and the absence of the Gerudo in Twilight Princess,) but you manage to surprise us while also making the story fit perfectly into Canon, like the fact that Gerudo are gone and disgraced as a race in TP because THEY LITERALLY SACKED HYRULE!

Cody Bertrand

What a video! What animation! What a story! And best of all? What characterization! You really have somehow fleshed these characters out and made them feel so real while also not violating Canon in the slightest! This IS Canon, because, how else could this have gone down? Especially now that we have the backstory and sequels to fill in the lore!

Cody Bertrand

Wow, this episode had me at the edge of my seat throughout the whole thing! So worth the wait! Amazing work as always! I am so proud to be a patreon when supporting something awesome and well thought through as this. Can't wait for the next episode! Well done, mate!

Sara Bjorøy

I'm gonna be ruminating about this one for a long time.

shachrisley

This was incredible! Became a patron just to see it and I'll continue to support. I hope 7 can be a less than 2 year wait!!

Tom Johnson

I was not expecting to see the hero from the skyward sword prologue comic that is in the hyrule historia and also the hero that shows up in minish caps intro. This has always been the greatest form of a love letter and every frame and word really captures that.

Crazytim7 Alexina

That gave me Jojo’s Linked Universe comic vibes. MajorLink and JoJo would be an epic collaboration

Connor Vallecillo

Wow!!! That was epic and fantastic. It was worth the wait. Well done. I really enjoyed the part where all the Links were there to give support to the Hero of Time.

Monica Spath

One other dialogue suggestion. When Skyward Link introduces himself to Time Link, should it be Hero of Sky or Hero of *the* Sky?

Jeff Bingham

I hope not!

Sean

🤣🤣

Sean

Absolute Cinema.

Justin Asamoah-Boamah

Creepy mind image of Ganondorf and Demise and that squishy sound.

Invisible Exo

Now we wait for 3 years?

Invisible Exo

Incredible. Sad about the Deku tree

Invisible Exo

Absolutely amazing! You really are a master of your craft. Especially the ending with Link talking to Ganondorf, literal chills!

Dewdrop06

This was truly amazing. I often say after each episode you release, it was worth the wait, but damn this was worth the wait. How the connections between games were drawn, the characters, the animation, EVERYTHING. This series you given us is a blessing. Thank you for the hard work and effort you put into this. Its hard to be patient sometimes as a fan, but my faith in you guys and your work always remains. This episode was BEAUTIFUL

Elijah Medina

Thank you so so much for this incredible peace of art. Peak cinema! Love everything about it. Keep up this amazing work!

Ms. Hope

Never even considered joining Patreon for any content creator until right now. Thank you for putting. The work to deliver something truly special. Now to kick back, spark this bowl and cry my eyes out

Tyrone Silky Patrickson Mcfitzerwellington The XXXVII

BEST VALENTINES DAY EVER WITH MY FIANCÉ!! Master piece. Chefs kiss, so so in love!! I was crying so much 😭😭❤️💕

Fallon O'Connor

I had to become a member to see this and I'm excited to continue supporting it. This series is fantastic and means a lot to me. Thank you for creating this masterpiece for us all to enjoy. Absolutely loved the fight scenes and the dialog. I will be waiting patiently for episode 7 and will wait as long as it takes

Eliza Hill

I added up all 6 runtimes of the series, in total it’s 218 minutes so far! That’s Lawrence of Arabia, Lord of the Rings Extended Cuts, Godfather Part 2, and The Brutalist level run time 😮

Connor Vallecillo

PEAK CINEMA

RichMan

I just watched it again 😂 this is literally peak like this is what Zelda should be when you think about loz. You’ve got a great story, incredible music, the feels, THE EPIC FIGHTS. I am more hyped for the next episode of this than anything about the Zelda movie. This IS a Zelda movie it’s just that fantastic

Jane

UNGODLY GOOD I WILL BE THINKING OF THIS FOR WEEKS <3

Jane

Literally past 1am in the morning for me. OMFG!!!! I LOVED THIS SO MUCH! Thank you for all your hard work!

Beyond The Story

Time Vs Sky was honestly my favorite part of the whole episode (there’s many incredible moments so it was hard to choose)! Considering everything that Time has gone through his reaction felt genuine and only Sky (a Link who is full of energy and life) could help him see the way. That’s how I saw it and I thought executed perfectly

Connor Vallecillo

Wow, wow, wow. I thought the final fight in TOTK was the most epic but you blew that away. Felt like everything was taken to a new level. Animation, models, music, fight scenes and the storytelling. Skull Kid trying to reason with Ganondorf, brilliant idea and execution. Favourite part was HOT VS. HOS. I can see that part being the most divisive. Personally, I thought it was nearly perfect. Did not see Epona but still a fantastic scene. Quite amazing how you continue to make Zelda content that years from now will be cherished by the fanbase. I hope you keep doing this as long as possible.

Watto

Tears, man. I can't believe the absolute masterpiece you've created from this series we've all grown up with. The detail, soundscape, animation - it's all gold. Thank you for everything you've done and the work you and your team have poured into this.

Vilamaek

Loved that part so much!! Glad it was easy to read!

Sean

Great animation, story and progress you´ve achieved! I couldn´t simply wait a whole week knowing this masterpiece was online so I immediately became a member. An special mention to the message in your stories, it is much more impactful than you will ever imagine and I personally thank you for it.

Mikau

The amount of attention to detail is also insane. When Demise’s PTSD kicks in at 42:40, he prepares to block the attack to the left because SS Link is right handed. Oot Link is left handed, so the right side of Ganondorf’s neck is fully open for him.

Caleb Evans

This was so worth the wait. I can't express how much this series means to me. Thank you so much for the work you have dedicated to in my opinion, the greatest story arc of all time. The Hero of Time

Josh Bates

Just finished watching this, and I have absolutely no words. This was absolutely, without a doubt, worth the two year gap. From the incredible animation, the passionate dialogue, and the story… this is a love letter to all Zelda fans. Now, I’m going to spend the rest of my day trying to figure out how to live after watching this.

Caleb Evans

I have been sobbing since the release of this video. Thank you... MajorLink.

Y.T. Cheng

Darunia vs. Phantom Ganon is not something I knew I wanted to see. In terms of dialogue tweaks, during the Hylian soldier's conversation with Goron Link the contraction words have unnecessary spaces after the apostrophes. I'm not sure if you noticed. Other than that, when's Episode 7? ;P

Jeff Bingham

Ohhhh HECK YES!! I'm SO damn keen to watch this!

Chris Hiddins

200/10 Absolutely wild

Alva

What a way to close this episode! Can’t wait for the next episode!

Diego Martinez

Zelda is my childhood and I cannot thank you enough for creating this masterpiece. This episode was everything I wanted it to be and more

Phillip Strong

Thank you so much!

Sean

My god man! I asked you to deliver and by Hylia and the Three Golden Goddesses, SIR, YOU DELIVERED!

Thane

NOOOOO!!! I'm in the middle of work and can't watch it till later tonight, CURSES!!! Lol, super excited to see it, my sister and I will be watching it with coffee and meals from TOtK.

NovelDefender

I just finished. I’m at a complete loss for words. Anxiety, dread, but hopefulness at the same time. The music, the action, the emotional stakes, and that ending just blew my socks off. MajorLink you have a gift that not many storytellers in Hollywood have. If my excitement for Episode 6 was through the roof my excitement for Episode 7 is astronomical. This was 100% worth the two year wait. You really know how to deliver on your promises. From all of us Zelda fans thank you for these incredible 5 years of this incredible series

Connor Vallecillo

Huge W, awesome work!

BrotherV

OMG OMG OMG can't right now ! Let's put the kids to bed and watch this on our giant screen at home like it's deserved ❤️

Sandra Chaudanson

I’m not emotionally prepared for this, I got 5-6 minutes in and started crying already. Pray for me y’all. Edit: 10/10….100/10 the music, dialogue, the nods and call backs, the HUD. I had to take a break from watching about ten times. It just keeps getting better and better, OOT is my favorite game of all time, amongst my friends and family and anyone who knows me, I’m the Zelda guy, I’m not saying I’m the biggest Zelda fan ever, but I do know that this game has an extremely soft spot in my heart. The way you tell this story is nothing short of brilliant, and it does justice, pure justice to this game. Thank you, this story was everything I wanted it to be and more, by a very wide margin, thank you and I can’t begin to describe the excitement I have for whatever you do next with this.

Tyler Carter

Yes!! Thanks for your hard work I can't wait to see this new episode. Edit: Man... That fight was amazing, the reunion of the heroes, the music and the ending... I can't express how much I liked it. There's a lot to say about this episode, but thanks for giving us this great series. For me, Hero's Purpose is canon. Greetings Sean.

Bastian Cabezas

Christmas morning in the middle of February?!?!

Caleb Evans

LETS GOOOOO, Thank you so much. I cannot wait to watch this later today!

Ezokewn

YES YES YES!!! Let’s go 😃
