Zeldapedia:Temple of Courage



Welcome to the Temple of Courage, where various characters from the Legend of Zelda series battle out on a semi-weekly basis! You, the people, are the deciding factors in these matches. Functionally, all of these battles are popularity contests and not "battles" as such. For instance, in a boss vs. boss fight, we suggest that you vote for the one you like the most rather than whether or not one enemy would beat another in a legit fight. This is only a suggestion, though.

You can suggest a fight or vote or comment on others on the suggestions sub-article.

Rules

 * You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in a competition between the two combatants that week.
 * You may only vote once.
 * If you are a user, please include your vote in the user section. If you are not a user, please include your vote in the anonymous section. However, any votes put in the anonymous sections will only count as a half vote.
 * When a new fight is created (the process should take no longer than a week, give or take a couple of days), the votes from the last fight will be totaled and winner decided.
 * Please sign your vote (unless you want to be counted as an anonymous vote) with a link to your username in front of your eventual voting text.
 * Don't try to rig the votes by entering multiple votes; these pages are regularly patrolled and you WILL face consequences if you are caught.
 * A short notification must be made before changing the fight.
 * Please don't use talk templates.

Week 99: Byrne vs. Linebeck
{| style ="width: 100%;" LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLADIES AND GENTLEMENNNNNNNNNNNNN!!! Brought to you by the mythical, benevolent Fairies of the Temple of Courage, we present to you the 99th battle for supremacy! This week we have two beloved characters from recent installments in the series. Both are initially indifferent and uncaring towards the hero of the games, but become trusted allies to the point that they sacrifice themselves for the greater good! Let us meet our two combatants in the ring.

In the green corner is a mysterious man skilled in martial arts and has one mechanical arm, which boasts great strength. Despite being the second-hand man of the hero's antagonistic counterpart, his loyalty is to battle, not any one "master." Eventually, he sacrifices his life for Link, and his true nature is revealed. THIS... IS... BYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYRNE!!!

In the blue corner is an egotistical, sarcastic and self-serving treasure hunter with his very own steam ship. Initially, he agrees to aid the hero only for the promised reward of a huge amount of treasure, but he grows to like him and becomes wrapped up in the events leading to the defeat of evil and the restoration of peace to the World of the Ocean King. Also, his grandson would later help a descendant of the hero during another quest. THIS... IS... LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINEBECK!!!

Next week may be the 100th battle in the Temple, but firstly, we have a battle against two choice characters here, so there is nothing to say but... LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLET'S GET RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREADY TO RUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Votes for Byrne

 * 1) Heh. I know this bad guy has a soft side towards the end of Spirit Tracks but hey, I have no idea how Linebeck can attack...Pie 145
 * 2) There was just something about him from the beginning that made me like him. --BassJapas (talk) 00:09, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I haven't beaten Spirit Tracks yet, but I'm going with the contestant with the huge, mechanical arm! T h e Midna Laughing.png ™  00:16, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Normally I would go with Linebeck, but Byrne's boss battle and music barely puts him ahead of Linebeck for me. J-man Zelda Fan (talk) 00:49, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) My negative disposition towards Linebeck hinders me form voting for him. Besides, |3yr|\|3 15 4 |33457! --  Haru Mclean Namikaze  Anonymous.png Kana: ナミカゼ ハ ル マクリーン, Romaji: Namikaze Haru Makurīn
 * 6) byrne can own in this battle he could stangle linebeck with one hand behind his back Octorok (The Minish Cap).gif D m e r k a GU 10Octorok (The Minish Cap).gif 03:22, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) Look at him. 'Nuff said User:Hello Doggy
 * 8) Meep. M33P. mEEp. Meep Meep (talk) 15:49, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) He is a total bad@$$. Super duh... Alpaca [[File:Doggie Mask.gif]] 15:52, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) Even though his betrayal was highly predictable and he was injured for half the game Staven still makes a great villain with a perfect theme song, a bad ass gauntlet and the best and one of the only death scenes in the series. O yeah he's left handed too that might not make a difference to you but it does to me Oni Dark  Link 17:38, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) URK!  It pains me to even vote for one.  Spirit Tracks was a huge letdown for me, but Phantom Hourglass?  Oh gosh..... if I could i'd erase it from history.  It is in the same mental placement in my mind as the cd-i games, at least they had DINNERS and you could listen to peaceful melodies of MAH BOI!@@@#@$~!---Tehmeganerd (talk) 23:51, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) Total badass--DarkTriforce (talk) 01:48, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * 13) Got to vote here but the whole Han Solo of Zelda thing almost made me change my vote Birdman5589 (talk)
 * 14) ^^ This almost got me, too, but Byrne shares the rugged smuggler's most important quality...his 1337ness. Not that Linebeck isn't, obviously, but his is of a different breed. Jedimasterlink (talk) 02:58, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * 15) Totally and completely Byrne. Amazing theme music, amazing boss music, and the two other music pieces that bear his name (Byrne's Helping Hand and In Rememberance of Byrne) are AMAZING. He has a cool backstory, he's badass, he has better hair, I completely adore his relationship with Zelda and would probably be shipping them if she was older, and, most importantly, I don't want to slap him. Which kind of helps! --Ryttu3k (talk) 10:18, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * 16) I just love his theme song. It's super awesome! He's one of the best Zelda characters ever! Paffe 14:49, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * 17) Nice arm. /\/\r.6r33&#124;\&#124; &#124;-&#124;@T (talk) 23:53, May 18, 2010 (UTC)Mr.Green hat
 * 18) I don't have any PH experience, and Byrne is one of the best characters ever rendered to the DS graphics. (PS. It's a tie now!) LunarChild (talk) 04:27, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * 19) Byrne is totally better than linebeck. Linebeck wouldn't even be able to attack Byrne before he would be totally pwned by Byrne.--War62 (talk) 15:43, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

Anonymous votes

 * 1) This week, my vote goes to the one I don't hate with a passion.  As in, the vote goes to Byrne.
 * 2) This guy is so cool. Byrne's mechanical arm is cool, his theme song is cool, in general, he is cool.
 * Ha, this is my first TOC vote, and of course it goes to Byrne...I mean he's a warrior born, no offense, but Linebeck is just a self-absorbed treasure hunter that nobody likes...


 * colspan="3" style="width: 50%; background: #95aedd; padding: 5px" valign="top"|

Votes for Linebeck

 * 1) It's Linebeck. Freakin' Linebeck. His very name alone owns Staven Byrne. Byrne is exceptionally cool, but come on, it's Linebeck! The very own Han Solo of Zelda, but somehow even more awesome. He made Phantom Hourglass. Well, err, you know, he didn't make it make it, but he, you know. He made the game. Without him... I don't even want to imagine it. LINEBECK, LINEBECK, LINEBECK!!! (Psst, anyone who thinks Linebeck appears in two games... you know what you are. Also, LINEBECK!!!) --Auron  Kaizer !  23:58, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Linebeck is sweet. And sarcastic. Easily one of my favorite characters.--  C  2  / C C  00:00, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) This is a hard choice. I'm just gonna go with my gut. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 00:05, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) When in doubt, go with the guy who's funnier. -Minish   Link  00:08, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Awesome, awesome, and double awesome while clicking CTRL-SHIFT-AWESOME... -  McGillivray  227  00:44, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) I like both of them, but LINEBECK MUST WIN, for a variety of reasons. 1. Who can forget his reaction after that wish Oshus promised him? No, really, who? 2. Byrne's theme song is good, but Linebeck's is much better in my opinion. 3. Linebeck accompanies Link throughout the whole adventure of PH, and isn't one of the antagonists, soo... 4. His coat. I mean, look at it. 5. You wonder how Linebeck can attack? Well, he can easily beat Byrne by using SHAKE ATTACK!!! SHAKE ATTACK is a OVER 9000 power physical move that causes confusion. He's already used it on Link before in the TotOK, and you know what that looks like, right? *Link staggers around holding the key with his eyes spinning* 7. He actually fought Bellum, unlike Byrne who only made a shield for Link.  And 8. HE IS LINEBECK. -- Deku  Stick   Master 
 * 7) A close contest... but Byrne doesn't do himself any favors by using the classic cliche Nintendo villain line, "All who stand in my way will be eliminated." Yes, eliminated. Because as we all know, villains don't kill, they just "eliminate" people. I can't find any other way to discredit Byrne, and I'm already struggling to do so... but there's nothing wrong with Linebeck, just lots of things that are awesome.  Portal-  Kombat
 * 8) Linebeck is amazing! He is better than Byrne in many aspects. Don't get me wrong, they are both awesome, but Linebeck has more character. Linebeck is in my top ten best characters of all time. Byrne is maybe in my top 20. --Braelolk [[File:Gold Ball & Chain Trooper (A Link to the Past).gif]]
 * 9) First and foremost, Linebecks's theme is simply just amazing.  Second, Byrne really does portray the typical villan pretty well.  Third, HE IS LINEBECK!  Fourth, HE IS LINEBECK!  Yeah that's pretty much it.  Darax King Dodongo.png
 * 10) He's Linebeck. That is all the reason you need. Also, I like his coat. It's a cool coat. AK's right, he IS the Han Solo of Zelda... does that make Link Luke Skywalker, then? -Stars  <font color ="#187868">talk  http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/pyroac/Starssprite.gif 18:43, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) Without this gut Link would have never even made it off of Mercay Island. Plus, you have to love his excentric personaility. This guy makes me laugh, he's awsome. Zoma89
 * 12) Actually, I like Byrne a lot, I mean, he IS awesome in 100 differant ways, but for all the reasons above, and for my special reason, he gets the vote. What reason you may ask? His Super-special-AWESOME! heroic theme moment after he is promised a wish. Plus, Line Solo FTW! Jioplip
 * 13) Linebeck has a coat. If Byrne and Linebeck were in a freezer guess who would live. Linebeck of course cuz Byrne woul freeze to death. Linebeck's coat would keep him alive unlike Byrne's t shirt. Linebeck's better and thank you for your time.       A human
 * 14) Byrne's cool and everything, but Linebeck is just...better. Don't really know what else to say. He just...is.  Xykeb   Yvolix   Zraliv  23:14, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 15) I think AK has already said it all. --<font color=#E0115F>The <font color=#082567>Ultimate <font color=#50C878>Hokage88 [[Image:Arwing.png|25px|]]
 * 16) Lineback is awesome. First off, his theme is the best in that pile of crap soundtrack that is phantom hourglass, AND he is just plain awesome. I also liked his little sidequest in ST where you have to use his letter and find his grave and stuff.Hylianhero777 (talk) 19:28, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * 17) He am coolio! <font color=#3ba0c5>Dawn Of A New Day <font color=#3ba0c5>(is cool)  Deku Flight.png
 * 18) I LOVE THIS MAN!!!!!! Zelda Fan 888 (talk) 04:03, May 19, 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) Yeah he's awesome because he has a piece of paper. "Super Paper Cut!"
 * 2) Its Linebeck, I mean Byrne was cool and all but I liked Linebeck better 'cause he was funnier and had a EPIC theme song.
 * 3) I like his theme song and PH is a better game. It is also much funner to be on a boat than a train.
 * 4) I love both Staven (byrne) and Linebeck. Buth Linebeck is in both SS and PH. Pluss he is way more cool than Staven (byrne).

Thank god I'm not the only one who loved Byrne's fight music! --BassJapas (talk) 02:05, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I loved the fight and the music, but he was super easy. I only lost 1/2 of a heart. For such a buff character, you'd think those attacks would do a little bit more damage. Portal-  Kombat
 * I, um... Think I died once because I didn't exactly know what I was doing. The music in boss fights always gets me. The mini-boss music always gets me in Wind Waker. --BassJapas (talk) 03:54, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I like the OoT dungeon music the most. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 04:38, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * You know me, I like short names the best. --<font color="#3ba0c5">Auron  Kaizer <font color="#3ba0c5">!  04:44, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Molgera's music. It was stuck in my head, and I couldn't fall asleep because it kept replaying. --BassJapas (talk) 10:59, May 17, 2010 (UTC)

And look now, we have people voting for Bryne because he's ripped, and has a giant claw. Not saying you can't do that, I just feel that it makes more sense to vote for the one you like. This is kinda the thing that will happen with Flute Boy vs. Skull Kid. Aside from a few honest votes, the majority of the Skull Kid votes will be: He's from MM/He has Majora's Mask/He is from Majora's Mask/etc. And if I'm wrong great, I would really love to see that people vote for the one they like more. But if I'm right.....-- C  2  / C C  10:46, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * And you're right. That is what will happen. In fact, it's probably already happening in the suggestions area. --BassJapas (talk) 10:59, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * And with my vote Staven takes the lead. WOw go Staven. Also I have want to ask you AK because of your crossed Staven in your suggestion, have you played the European spirit tracks yet or are you still just using the pirated copy? <font color="#66FFFF">Oni <font color="#7F007F">Dark <font color="#007A00">Link 17:44, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nope, just pointing out how lame it is. --<font color="#3ba0c5">Auron  Kaizer <font color="#3ba0c5">!  18:37, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not so fast, Oni, I just made it even. A giant claw cannot beat Linebeck's coat. -<font color ="#68E0D0">Stars <font color ="#187868">talk  http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/pyroac/Starssprite.gif 18:46, May 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed, Linebeck's coat is very much win. - Jioplip
 * Nuff said. Darax
 * What if those are the reasons they like him? --  Haru Mclean Namikaze  Anonymous.png Kana: ナミカゼ ハ ル マクリーン, Romaji: Namikaze Haru Makurīn

Anonymous vote #3 makes me want to cry for a number of reasons. - Isdrakthül  23:38, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Which side? Cause if it's for Linebeck, I think I understand why. More funner ARGH! I'm a grammar nerd/english freak/grammar pirate/aspiring author the word funner doesn't exsit. and i don't think PH is more fun the ST BassJapas (talk) 02:18, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Funner is a word: Look here. However, "More funner" IS improper use of grammar... That person actually wrote "Much funner" which is proper grammar. -- Deku Stick   Master 
 * MY TEACHERS LIED TO ME!!! BassJapas (talk) 02:38, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's also because he turned this into a game vs. game fight (which people do way too often) and then turned it into a mode-of transportation fight from there. This is me, but I can't log in right now. -Isdrakthül
 * That's disputed. - Isdrakthül  03:58, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * If we're gonna do a mode of transportation fight, then Epona deffinately wins. BassJapas (talk) 04:00, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * He/she voted for Linebeck so thank you, but Anonymous vote #4 for Linebeck is just...wow. Even after AK made a warning.  Darax

Week 98: Dekadin vs. Kamo
{| style ="width: 100%;" 21 > 19 LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLADIES AND GENTLEMENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!! It is now time for this week's battle, being the ninety-eighth in the series. The Spectacular 100th Fight is looming ever closer, but we mustn't lose sight of the present, and this week, we have a very special battle for you. A battle between two depressed (and depressing) social recluses who shun the society in which they find themselves. However, with the public spotlight now thrust upon them, which of these anti-social characters will walk out the winner? Let us see what has brought these two combatants here today.

In the purple corner is a young Labrynnan boy who likes living in darkness. Reader of touching literature, he does not initially appear to have that great of a sense of humor, but show him a joke manifested as an oversized moustache and he will laugh as heartily as you'll ever be likely to. THIS... IS... DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKAAAAAAAAADIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!!!

In the light red corner is a young man from the Great Sea, who has appeared in the Temple of Courage before. Convinced that nobody understands how he feels, hopelessly in love with a girl, he gazes at the moon, which appears to comfort him. While maintaining an uncaring façade, a sensitive, likable guy is found underneath. THIS... IS... KAAAAAAAAAAAAMOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

And now, these two similar characters will battle it out in the ring. This week's battle is sponsored by Johnson & Co., your one-stop shop for legal advice. If there is anyone who wishes to object to this battle, speak now or forever hold your peace? Nothing? No? Good. Then there is nothing to say but... LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLET'S GET RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREADY TO RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Votes for Dekadin

 * 1) I just thought it was kind of cool to see one of those usually chipper (albeit sometimes weird and funny) kids as a self-obsessed, anti-social guy. Used the same sprites even. Also, the Funny Joke scene is hilarious. Well, when I was a kid anyway. Now I just laugh at the fact that I laughed at it. Oh, and I wanna read the Touching Book. His name is also cool. It just is. Sounds a bit like a Final Fantasy character. --<font color="#3ba0c5">Auron  Kaizer <font color="#3ba0c5">!  01:18, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Second vote! He looks sadder, and every vote counts. Also, his name almost has "Deku" in it, and he likes mustaches. <font color="#663300">T <font color="#996600">h <font color="#CC6600">e Midna Laughing.png ™  01:19, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) His plea moves me more, and his joy touches me. He gets my vote. <font color="Orange">The Gerudo Guy
 * 4) He is less weird and he is a freakin' kid! Kamo just goes googlie eyed over the moon at night, so he does't need a home, but this boy needs one. So pity vote... <font color="OliveDrab">Super <font color="DarkSlateBlue">duh... <font color="SteelBlue">Alpaca [[File:Doggie Mask.gif]] 01:53, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) "I'm an emo kid, non-conforming as can be, you'd be emo, too, if you looked just like me. I've got paint on my nails, and make-up on my face, I'm almost emo enough to start shaving my legs." this song describes this fight. -- Haru Mclean Namikaze Anonymous.png Kana: ナミカゼ ハ ル マクリーン, Romaji: Namikaze Haru Makurīn

 * 9) This guy was awesome and I dont care about the moon Octorok (The Minish Cap).gif D m e r k a 10  Octorok (The Minish Cap).gif
 * 10) Kamo kind of annoyed me, what with his whole "Linda doesn't like me and the moon is my only joy and nobody understands me and I hate everything and you're so annoying because just like everybody else you don't understand me but oh wait you do understand me well here's something for your trouble" business. Dekadin was an overall better character. He was self-absorbed, just like all stereotypically depressed characters, but at least he didn't wallow in self-pity all the time until finally meeting a kid that can take color photos of a huge chunk of rock going in circles around the planet that somehow means that he understands him.

 * 13) I detest depression  but I think Dekadin portrayed it better. Like why does Kamo act completely out of character at night even when there is no moon. Stick to one personalty and only change is something life changing happens! <font color="#66FFFF">Oni <font color="#7F007F">Dark  <font color="#007A00">Link 16:10, May 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 14) I see a bit of myself in this guy, likes book, sorta depressed, and never gets any jokes, but especially the depressed part.  Plus Kamo is just...... pathetic compared to this guy, he only cares about himself and his large hunk of light reflecting geode in space.  ---Tehmeganerd (talk) 19:49, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

 * 1) Anyone who loves the moon is cool in my book.
 * 2) i agree with the comment above. and you kind of have to feel sorry for the dude
 * 3) He's the only one who's game I've played
 * 4) come on, why is moon-watching Kamo losing again? Someone who spents his time looking at the moon should easily beat a guy who doesn't even get out of the darkness.
 * 5) How can anyone NOT see the awesomeness of this guy?! I like how realistic he feels compared to the cartoon silliness of most of WW's cast (in my opinion)
 * 6) Only because Oracles is the only Zelda game I've never played. Plus, Kamo lost to Grog last time so gotta give him some credit. Final reason: as the comments above, Kamo has true emotion and you can really relate to him.

Week 97: Gillian vs. Mama
{| style ="width: 100%;" LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLADIES AND GENTLEMENNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!! Welcome to the Dark Horse round that is the 97th battle in the Temple of Courage! This week, we have a battle against two famous barmaids of The Legend of Zelda lore, battling it out for the grand prize: being featured in the Duff calendar. The two can dish out the brewskies, but can they dish out pain in this perilous battle between one another? We'll just have to see! Let us meet our fighters in the center ring.

In the blue corner is the owner of the Cafe Bar on Windfall Island, the de facto capital of the Great Sea. Always happy to serve customers, be they little men with serious aversions towards noises or bloodthirsty, bomb-stealin' pirates, and the lover of a Fishman... THIS... IS... GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAN!!!

In the pink corner is the proprietor of her self-named cafe in Hyrule Town, the geographical and economical center of Hyrule. Always staying in the loop as far as gossip is concerned, and being self-employed, has the chance to fuse Kinstones during working hours once in a while... THIS... IS... MAAAAAAAAAAAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

And now, paid for by the Trilateral Commission, it's time to indulge your animal impulses by watching barmaids battle it out. What is there to say but...LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLET'S GET RRRRRRRRRRRRRREADY TO RRRRRRRRUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Votes for Gillian

 * 1) I like Gillian. She seems thoughtful and nice and that. I really hate gossip and moles. You do the math here children. Gillian = AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! --<font color="#3ba0c5">Auron  Kaizer <font color="#3ba0c5">!  02:17, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) You know what, I don't think anyone could have explained it better than ol' AuronKaizer here. -  McGillivray  227  02:22, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I agree with McGillivray's agreement with AuronKaizer. - Isdrakthül  03:17, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) —<font face="verdana" size="2"> Baltro  [  talk  ·  edits  ] 03:51, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) AuronKaizer is right. How helpful is gossip to the actual quest? Gillian is probably the most helpful in terms of the main quest as opposed to Mama. ---<font color="#FF0000">Pie <font color=#000080>145
 * 6) On top of being an overall more likable character than Mama, Gillian has the nerve to date a talking fish, which (though disturbing and kind of creepy) takes an unparalleled sense of pervertedness guts.  Xykeb   Yvolix   Zraliv  05:38, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) I don't like the other one, don't know why, I like Gillian though, so here's my vote!- Jioplip
 * 8) Gillian here is tough enough to handle these rude pirates nearly every single night. She is obviously much tougher than Mama. Braelolk [[File:Gold Ball & Chain Trooper (A Link to the Past).gif]]
 * 9) Gillian seems like a more like-able character with better traits, a cooler personality, and a winning attitude.  Plus I like her better.  Darax King Dodongo.png
 * 10) I feel somewhat sorry for that prolonged visit by Tetra's crew. She deserves this victory because of that. LunarChild (talk) 12:51, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) Even though Wind Waker was not one of my favorite games, in this case, cartoon 3D is better than 2D.--Lincas1[[File:Vaati (The Minish Cap).gif]] 20:13, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) personally this was a better game, it kicks -Fooster 04:23, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 13) The fact that her name has 'gill' in it is reason enough to me. -- Haru Mclean Namikaze Anonymous.png Kana: ナミカゼ ハ ル マクリーン, Romaji: Namikaze Haru Makurīn
 * 14) Poor Gillian, having to deal with a sick father and still have to run the "cafe" and put up with grumpy sailors and pirate parties.  Portal-  Kombat
 * 15) I hate both.  Gillian's cafe is much better than the other thing's cafe though.---Tehmeganerd (talk) 21:39, May 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 16) I've never played Minish Cap, but I have played Wind Waker, so... TheUltimateHokage88 (talk) 22:01, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 17) No reason really.....she just seems pretty cool. And I always did like hanging out at Windfall Island.--  C  2  / C C  01:04, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 18) At first, I was going to vote for Mama, but two things changed that: her name (Mama?) and that Gillian's storyline is much more developed. <font color="#663300">T <font color="#996600">h <font color="#CC6600">e Midna Laughing.png ™  20:08, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * 19) Goooooo GILLIAN!!!  ZeldaQueen12
 * 20) I have nothing novel or interesting to say here. Gillian's just more interesting. Jedimasterlink (talk) 21:09, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 21) +1 Gillian! Woo!! The Postman

 * 1) I just like Wind Waker
 * 2) Mama looks too much like a whore then a bar-woman. I prefer the more plain type:P
 * 3) I dont have any of these games but Wind Waker PWNS.
 * 4) i would have to choose this side because she actually looks and semms to act the part, no offence
 * 5) She is from WW and I never played Mama's game.
 * 6) She's taller. LOL, just kidding. This is in respect of Wind Waker. And also, Mama is from Minish Cap, FYI.
 * 7) I didn't even know that Mama's name was that, she is a very, very less important character

Bleh, I just don't find this fight interesting... I don't feel like voting... -- Deku Stick   Master 
 * For the love of all things 2-D you should vote for Mama then ;) --Birdman5589 (talk) 09:01, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

Gillian is wiping the floor of the Cafe Bar with Mama. - Isdrakthül  00:02, May 6, 2010 (UTC)
