Funny / The Legend of Zelda (1989)

• Late in "The Missing Link," Ganon states that Zelda is able to see Link's non-corporeal form due to The Power of Love. Both Link and Zelda are in earshot of this. Zelda profusely denies this to Link...
  Link: Yes, you do, yes, you do! (teasingly sings) That's why you can seeeee meeeee! (stands up on a ledge to proclaim the glorious news to the rest of Level-9)
  Zelda: Get down, you idiot! They'll hear you!
  Link: ZELDA LOVES ME! ZELDA LOVES ME! ZELDA LOVES MEEEEEEEEE!
  Ganon: (surprised by the singing that came out of nowhere) THEY'RE HERE!
  • This little gem from earlier on:
    Link: You swing that sword like a girl!
    Zelda: I am a girl!
    Link: (dryly) Yeah, I've noticed.
    Zelda: Oooooh! Even as a ghost, you're disgusting!
    Link: Well, Excuse Me, Princess! Just trying to keep my spirits up!
    • Even funnier in that, when Zelda first picked up Link's sword, she handled it as competently as he did with some impressive twirling.
• Ganon teaches boxing.
• The entirety of "The Moblins Are Revolting," where Ganon's army is so incompetent they defeat themselves.
  • Even the beginning, where they come close to stealing the Triforce of Wisdom as Link reads a comic book, and they defeat themselves easily.
    Link: Boy, I'm good.
  • Link telling the Moblin leader that their plan is the stupidest plan Ganon ever conceived, only to be told that the monsters thought it up themselves.
  • The Moblin leader tells another Moblin to be careful with the magic staff and to not drop it. When the other Moblin asks him to repeat the last part of the order, he yells "Drop it, stupid!" causing the other Moblin to do just that. The Moblin leader, hearing the staff break, does a Face Palm and muses that now he knows how Ganon feels.
  • Ganon's reaction when he is pushed into the Bottomless Pit while trapped inside a bubble.
    Ganon: No! No! Not the Bottomless Pit! Noooooooooooooooo!
  • Ganon's punishment to his disloyal minions is to make them clean the dungeon floors with their tongues.
• The scene with Link and Spryte in the first episode "The Ringer".
  Link: You're a girl, Spryte... how can I get Princess Zelda to pay attention to me?
  Spryte: Who cares? She's a snot. You should stick with me!
  Link: Spryte, you're three inches tall!
  Spryte: What, you don't like short girls?
• In "That Sinking Feeling," Zelda is overjoyed at a picnic Link has set up and glomps him. She's just about to kiss him when Ganon attacks and ruins the mood.
  Zelda: It's an underworld entrance. We're being attacked!
  Link: They couldn't have waited ten seconds?
• In "That Sinking Feeling," Ganon's reaction when he finds the Triforce of Wisdom is missing is to throw a tantrum, taking his anger out by breaking various objects in the room and generally tearing the place up, and yell "I'M VERY UPSET!"
  • King Harkinan and Spryte also keep having to hide from him in increasingly funny places.
• In Cold Spells, Ganon sends a Gohma to eat Link and Zelda. Of course, Gohma attempts to grab them from the side of the container. Ganon's response is this:
  Ganon: No, Gohma, no! Reach down from the top!
• In "Doppelganger":
  • Ganon does a hilarious Minor Injury Overreaction to Zelda biting his finger. Just listen to that overdramatic screaming!
  • Link and Zelda are running when Zelda stops at the edge of a rather high tower. Link keeps running and bumps into her from behind, knocking them both over the edge. They're both unharmed, but Link gives this line afterwards:
    Link: Sorry. Why don't you look where I'm going?
