Talk:Kokiri

Improve
This page is pretty short, and a lot more info and detail should be added to it. I'm more than happy to help, but it's going to take a lot of work. Let's try to make a good article out of this one! 02:58, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Kokiri outside of the Forest?
Wodo, Sage of Mediocrity, and I have more speculations about Kokiri outside of the Kokiri Forest. As the article notes, since Kokiri are shown in the ending credits, it is possible for them to leave the Kokiri Forest for a period of time. However, if they stay out long enough, two things may potentially happen: 1. Like a Zora kept away from water for too long, they die. While death is not immediate, Kokiri cannot survive for months away from the Great Deku Tree. 2. Like the Lost Boys removed from Neverland, they will eventually grow up. Kokiri could actually be Hylian children who retain their youthful forms due to proximity to the Great Deku Tree and to their guardian fairies. The thought that they will die could be a rumor along the same lines as "don't make that expression, or your face will stick"--propagated to keep the Kokiri from leaving the forest (perhaps even started by the Kokiri themselves at some point in the past) but ultimately untrue. Or, the concept of "growing up" may have been so foreign and scary to the Kokiri that it seems like death, and the original message got warped. The fact that Link never received a fairy points to his destiny to eventually leave the Kokiri Forest and grow up. Either of these sound valid? 15:20, 1 July 2009 (UTC)


 * The point that kokiri cannot survive far away from the great deku tree has the slight problem that at the start of the game it dies and takes seven years for one to sprout up, so it may be more that mido or predecessor started such a belief Theif 1 21:12, 30 May 2011 (EDT)

Kikori?
To my knowledge, Kikori is a generic term for woodsman. Thus, the etymology may be similar despite no actual relation between the lumberjacks and Kokiri. Moreso, I'm sure that the idea for use of apparel similar to Link's could have hatched up long before the idea for the kokiri. --Stalkid (P T) 07:48, 18 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Yess, I agree. The Merchant from The Legend of Zelda also wears the same tunic as Link's. Jeangabin 07:51, 18 August 2010 (EDT)
 * Does 木樵 have any other connotations other than the "Lumberjack" type of woodsman (e.g. woodsman in English could also mean someone who lives in woods...)? I've also added a similarly dressed characters section to Trivia, with the Merchant, Nyeve, Link(...) and Tingle; should we also include a note on the "forest fairies" of the latter?

 * Absolutely. It is implied that the "forest fairies" are the Kokiri, which makes the relation with Tingle's outfit more relevant than say, Nyeve's or the Merchant's. Really, the mention of those characters might be better suited for the Tunic page... 00:49, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Agreed; I've moved the similarly dressed characters to Tunic, put up a note on "forest fairies"/"fairy folk"/"fairy children" and another on Tingle. I'm not sure I've done the latter justice though, as his relation to fairies and the Kokiri is somewhat complicated (and slightly varied between games). -- xensyria T 20:46, 19 October 2012 (UTC)


 * It seems fine to me :) 02:03, 20 October 2012 (UTC)


 * A bit late to the party here but -- now this is just mere speculation, but "kokiri" could be written 子桐/小桐, either would mean "little paulownia", a type of tree common in Asia. Banjoori (talk) 16:03, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

Hyrule Warriors
Huh? They're vaguely referenced through a few mentions, and we see what could be their current homes, but I don't remember ever actually seeing any.KrytenKoro (talk) 15:31, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Hole of Z/L?
Am I wrong or should there at least be a mention that the Hole of "Z" (as it was known in the N64 version) was renamed when it was ported to the Gamecube in the LoZ collection? Zygoatsalami (talk) 03:22, 9 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, that kind of information doesn't really belong on this page, but it certainly would go well on the Kokiri Forest page. 04:59, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

Can someone include the Korkiri outfit from Triforce Heroes on this page?
