    What makes the OoT animation a bit cooler is that Link is older after the animation, like the beams hide him from your view and after the flash of light, he grew old (and everything else changed as well, but you only see that after leaving the cathedral)

      Which seems weird when you think about it. Has he been passed out there for 7 years? How did he stay alive? Where did he get clothes that fit?

        The sages used their advanced technology to send Link into a divergent timeline but had to massively simplify their explanation for refugee child living in the woods.

          So does he have memories of the past 7 years or did he just take the place of the adult Link in that timeline?

            I like to think that his memory is linear and if he goes from (a) young to (b) adult and back to © young, his knowledge goes from a ➡️ a+b ➡️ a+b+c. So, his age is sort of irrelevant.

        And why can he not use the Kokiri Sword as a dagger? It’s like he’s not even trying

          I imagine he could, but why would he? He’s got a perfectly good sword right there!
