Battle begins at 2:56. He is the boss of Skyview Temple and also the first boss in the game. Once you force him to draw out his sword, the battle is a breeze.
Nintendo pulled a "shit just got real" on me when I was first introduced to Ghirahim. He disturbed the shit out of me, and defeated me 3 times. It wasn't until a week later that I knew how to get him. MAN do they know how to violate personal bubbles.
There's something so terrifying about the fact that he kind of calmly approaches you... It's honestly scarier than if he were to run at you. Also, Ghirahim is the best, and very fabulous.
3:27 the way that he just laughs and casually picks up your sword right before you get it just goes to show how little he takes you seriously. It’s just a game to him.
Well yeah, the rest of the Zelda villains are just like "I WANT MOAR POWAAAAAH!" and Ghirahim is like "Screw yourself and die", And Ghirahim has more villain facts, He can be Gentlemanly, Taking fights as a game "except final" but he can be a total psycopath and evil villain... It makes him FABULOUS!
He was supposed to be a Wake-up Call Boss. Basically, he was there to kinda teach the player that recklessly swinging their sword wouldn't get them very far.
lol, what?? Maybe it's your motion-control setting but really, try Breath where a blue bokoblin at the start of the game can deal you 3 hts damage??!?! this guy sadly was undermined by the makers,,,
@@netweed09 breath of the wild just parry, in this game, enemies can telegraph where you are about to hit next depending on what angle you have your sword at, this game is honestly harder than botw, not because of difficulty but the massive learning curve and distinctive combat system it has
He probably would've tried to grab her watery ass if she exited the sword.... although thinking about it, him holding the bottom section of the sword might be kinda like that. But to be fair, so was link.... O.o
Everyone is talking about how much he should be in smash, but I feel like no talks about how he is literally the most fashionable villain of all of them.
LOL, the first time I fought him he stole my sword, too. Link: "Dude, can I have my sword back?" Ghirahim: "Oh, sure. Here you go!" *throws it and it hits Link* Link: "Ow...Thanks."
+Nina Pines Compared to the rest of the cast of Naruto, he's one of the far better characters. Not only is he the only one who wasn't is an emo villain with eye powers, but the mysterious side of Orochimaru works really well for him. And you can't help but deny the similarities between him and Ghirahim.
The Skyview spring is actually the spring of courage in Faron Woods. It’s weird that the spring of power in Eldin looks more like it, but based on the locations the one in Eldin is the Earth spring.
1:34: That's where the english "translation" becomes a bit inappropiate. I can't understand why Link draws his sword just because Ghirahim says "But I'm not fussy". Okay, you might think it's because he teases him by telling that Link have to call him Lord, but if you look at the original japanese Version (I don't know it, but the german is as far as I know a direct translation) he says (in german): "Merk dir meinen Namen, es wird der letzte sein den du hörst...", means: "Remember my name, it will be the last you'll hear..." It's just logical that Link draws bis sword after THAT xD But I Must say that I, besides of that, like the english dialouge of Ghirahim better. Just as an example, SPOILER When eh captures Zelda, his first line in english is: (We all know it xD) In german he says: "Du törichter Narr! (You foolish fool)" (Gee, I can imagine him in japanese, totally badass: "BAKA BAKASHI!" xD I know, that means how stupid or something, but... Just imagine it! XD) Well, my Opinion. Fazit: GHIRAHIM, I LOVE YAA!
I think that Link drew his sword not because Ghirahim said "But I'm not fussy.", but because of what he said before that. Ghirahim had already said he was the one who made the tornado and that he was chasing Zelda, so naturally, Link knew that they were enemies and drew his sword when he decided that he didn't need to hear anything else from the demon lord.
I know this sounds crazy but..... I'm in love with Ghirahim he is good looking, especially with his cape so I'M IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is just so handsome and scary at the same time.
I fucking LOVE this boss, he has such an arrogant, yet creepy persona that just adds a lot to his character. Looking forward to seeing more of him as I'm only just past temple 4.
I personally think that Ghirahim is not necessarily arrogant, he is really strong and powerful and he knows it better than anyone, he had the opportunity to slaughter link when he showed up to him and yet didn't and prefered to engage a direct and long battle with him, well he had also his reasons to do so. He is but rather sadistic and antipatic in the character's depth Also yes you are completely right Ghirahim is absolutely amazing and badass
The only thing I didn't like about the zelda games was the absence of enemy health bars. Sometimes when I was in the middle of a boss fight I would get sort of confused. Basically I wasn't sure if I was doing fight correctly. Anyone who played these games would know that the boss fights have several parts.
At first I thought Ghirahim was a ridiculous, silly villain - but he is downright scary. The fact that he's completely psychotic makes his presence all the more chilling. Unlike Ganondorf or Zant, who just want power, Ghirahim wants to screw with your head. He's sick, twisted, and unhinged, all traits of a good villain imo
@@Reb3nga it explains how the Triforce came to be. It explains how Hylia started. It explains how Hyrule started. It explains how Link started. It explains how the master sword came to be. It explains how the hero came to be. It explains why Ganon always comes back. It explains why Zelda is so powerful. It explains the legend. And more.
Honestly the moment he took my sword I’d be tempted to deck him. Knowing he’s a sword spirit himself I’d probably bloody up my hands before I make him feel anything xp
Man I remember the times when I learned he could steal my sword, and when I tried to slowly move my sword to keep him guessing to attack at an opening, he *straight up slapped me* and I died
Ok who else figured out how badass this game is when a) it took you 10min to figure out how to put the key in. b) you lost more than once on the first boss battle. c) as soon as you popped the game into your wii. or d) all of the above.
To be honest yes, the face link put on as well and ghirahim kept groaning so.... this cut scene came when my dad was in the living room and he looked at me weirdly, I was smiling awkwardly....
I love this game and I understand the concept that Girahim is supposed to shock the player into reading their opponents moves more closely, because up until this point you're largely able to waggle your way out of most of the low level enemies. But man... they could have telegraphed what you were supposed to do a little better and not made it such a long ass fight. It doesn't help that the wiimote is genuinely a terrible input method and spazzes out like 25% of the time.
You know that trick to this is to Just Dance, but if that doesn't work then I guess you better put on your Poker Face and just Applause, if all else fails, just toss it away like a Bad Romance
Before the second fight with him you meet him again and he reveals his arms are made of the toughest armor…And his final form shows he can only be hurt by stabbing him dead center into his gem like stomach…So Ghirahim right here is basically a shell…And throughout the game he starts losing it slowly if you notice the cracks in his body as he changes everytime you meet him…eventually he comes out of his shell and reveals his true form
+Aaliyah Johnson He's hard when you don't know what you're doing, and I'd say the first stage where he tries to grab your sword is probably the trickiest part.
I know a lot people complain about the Ghirahim fight and how it was annoying to fight him multiple times, but I personally really enjoyed them. It felt like a real duel and each time the game challenged everything you’ve learned up to that point. I really felt accomplished the next time I faced him, it felt like I improved and had become a more skillful swordsman compared to our last encounter.
I tell ya, Ghirahim has that Yiga Clan-esque vibe to him. Since becoming a huge fan of Breath of the Wild, I wonder if there’s any connection between he and the Yiga clan in Zelda lore ? Been thinking of that, lately.
oh HELL no.. just beat him in remastered. was hard at first but once he told me i was predictable it kinda clicked and i figured it out. this is definitely my new fav zelda game because of the bosses and soundtrack alone.
The motion controls in this game are so bad. Even on the pro controller, half the time the sword doesn't even swing in the direction you are pointing the joystick. It's not even enjoyable to play when the controls are the most annoying part highlighted especially by this fight. You should be able to spam him after the red cards and Link doesn't even swing sometimes.
