I wasn't expecting to get the same feelings I got when I watched the BotW final trailer, but godamn it this actually exceeded that one. So many emotions bruh
I've been so worried and underwhelmed by the coverage of this game since the initial teaser. This trailer COMPLETELY blew me away and I'm no longer worried, I'm finally excited for this game!
I remember the final trailer for BotW did nothing for me after seeing hours of tree house footgae months before, lol. The one that got me was the one from e3 2016 which was the first proper trailer for the game. This one game a similar feeling.
Bruh, having beaten TOTK and rewatching this. I wanna go back to 9:05 PST on May 11, 2023 when this game finally dropped after 4 1/2 agonizing years of highly anticipated theorizing, guessing, but mostly....the WAITING. So many fan theories were damn near spot on for TOTK, and the game simply blew my mind. I mean, a whole ass SUBTERRANEAN map the same size of Hyrule's surface ENROBED IN DARKNESS, and we had to light the whole goddamn thing up one Lighroot at a time, knowing the gloom wreathed enemies awaiting in the darkness could pack Link out at ANY time early on? THIS WAS *THE* TRAILER OF ALL ZELDA TRAILERS
How much time has pass between the first game and this is essential to know now how come they again got separated. My guess is gane start in the underground that's when zelda falls down and I guess we gotta then go from there there has to be a time jump
The most hype is the scene with Link leading a rebellion of regular Hylians at 4:04 like farmers and regular people standing up to fight or launch a daring mission of sorts. Love seeing the Hylians put it all on the line instead of leaving it just to the champions.
It makes a lot of sense when you think about the fact a lot of them have probably spent their entire lives fighting just to get from one place to another. You have to imagine they’re pretty desensitized to it by now
Something I noticed, during the events that transpired before SS, the humans were cowering in fear, unable to fight, and hylia sent them all into the sky, while the rest of the races banded together to fight demise and his demons. What we are seeing here, however, is the hylians fighting back against ganon and his army along with the other tribes. And seeing as the hylians are not being sent into the sky, among many other things, I think it is pretty safe to say we are not seeing the birth of a cyclical timeline here.
Yeah I don't believe it's a prequel to SS but I do believe Time travel is gonna be a huge part. I feel like Zelda has been sent back in time to the height of the Zonai kingdom hence why nothing is seen in the air and she is with what seems to be Zonai people, either that or the Zonai have their own alternate dimension like the Twilight realm with its own version of hyrule.
The races aren’t the same as SS either. There were no Gerudo in SS’ time/ before, there were only the ‘Gerudo Dragonfly’ which could be indicative of a specific part of the desert. There were no Zora either. In fact, the Hylians and Gorons are the only recurring races from SS(excluding the dragons).
Demise's curse, on the other hand, definitely plays a part I think. Because of the great calamity killing everyone else in Hyrule Castle, Zelda may be the last person with the blood of the goddess, and according to Demise, "Those who share the blood of the goddess and the spirit of the hero... They are eternally bound to this curse". Ending the bloodline may mean ending the curse. So maybe Zelda herself, the Zonai, Demise or someone else has sent Zelda back in time to prevent her from dying in the pit, swapping her out for an ancient Zelda (the new character that fires a beam of light at moldugas) in a different place and time to ensure the bloodline continues.
I find this interesting: She says things like “Link, you must come find me” and “I know why I am here…” These lines are like she’s not in a world of her own. Like she’s somewhere different. I don’t think she’s just in the sky or underground. She is in the past. *EDIT* I also see in the shot where she’s holding the tear, the Master Sword is under her. It seems like the sword falls with her and she repairs it over the course of her own journey, while Link does whatever he does. It’s also strange because when the mysterious new ally is talking to Zelda, she acts like she is just remembering Link, almost like she lost her memory or something?
I caught this as well! It seems very much so like she's in the past! I wonder if the master sword shes holding near the end of the trailer is broken or not!?
I watch HMK to see the external manifestation of my inner feelings as I watch these trailers with a straight face. He hits the nail on the head every time! Thank you for the work that you do. Long time fan🙏🏿
That was crazy. You literally were making points in the moment which were spot on with others going back and pausing it to say the same thing, goes to show your on board knowledge of the botw/totk
I noticed that too. Most people's reactions you don't feel the energy, but Zeltik, Maze, and HMK are absolutely knowledgeable. I didn't notice Demise until someone mentioned it and I checked back, but I also think Hylia will be in the game. They released Skyward Sword on the Switch for a reason. Tears of the Kingdom could be a long game sequel to Skyward Sword.
Maybe the best reaction video of all time. I came back to this after playing more of the game. Legendary reaction. We can only hope the next game will get us to this level.
It feels like yesterday when you reacted to BotW's final trailer. 6 years later we're here, 1 month away from TotK . Like Revali's Gale, I am ready for this game!
I've known about this channel for awhile but never subscribed. Seeing how you were as hyped as this trailer as I was, and especially about the music?? You were literally the only one who noticed the music that hard. You've earned a sub my friend. Much love.
I started watching your Zelda reactions since the last BOTW trailer before its release. And 6 years later here I am. That was a pure Proust madeleine 🔥
HMK, I started watching you when BotW was in its hype stage, because no one I knew was as passionate about this series as I was (so I turned to the UA-cam zelda community to not feel so alone in my hype) it has been an absolute honor to ride the hype train again and watch your videos, alongside the others. Hylia bless you for these videos and excitement.
Bruh my reaction EXACTLY I am so fuckin hyped rn thank you for giving the same energy! Just makes me more excited for the hype to come while actually experiencing the game!
Even im watching this for 20 times now, i could still feel the geniune excitement and passion. You are truly my #1 to go reaction on zelda. The hype is real! ❤
As soon as I watched the trailer I immediately came here. I could hear HMK’s hype in my head while watching it and I wasn’t disappointed, lmao. As soon as I heard that music I knew it was a wrap.
Just think of all the joy,happiness and good vibes being created and pouring into the world by all us Zelda fans,i never thought i,d feel the same as i did when i watched the Breath of the Wild trailer but here we are six years later and all these emotions and swirling around my head once again,i am so overjoyed by this and not afraid to say i have been crying tears of joy watching this trailer over and over.
I wasn't expecting to get the same feelings I got when I watched the BotW final trailer, but godamn it this actually exceeded that one. So many emotions bruh
Agree is it me or there was 2 Links with Riju

THIS WAS *THE* TRAILER OF ALL ZELDA TRAILERS
The real tears of the kingdom were the ones we shed watching this trailer 😭
ΤΗΑΤ. Exactly that.
YAAASSS!
Facts
Can we talk about that part where the saxophone and erhu started playing together. Literally my two favourite instruments to listen to. 😩👌
The Erhu is so incredibly sublime. 🥴
That was incredible.
Right!
goosebumps
timestamp?
This trailer had me so emotional. I was already in tears when the logo first showed up
Cringe
Same they really nailed down the emotion this trailer presented

LOUD WARNING! THIS WAS AN AMAZING TRAILER! THE BEST WE'VE SEEN AGAIN!
THIS WILL BE THE BEST GAME OF ALL TIME
ToTK will be better thank BoTW
Lol I tear up hearing that music already
How much time has pass between the first game and this is essential to know now how come they again got separated. My guess is gane start in the underground that's when zelda falls down and I guess we gotta then go from there there has to be a time jump
Trust me I'm as hype as you man and your the only person I seen reacting that noticed that person with zelda having the same hand that link does
From ‘its Dangerous to Go Alone’ to ‘You’re Not Alone…. This trailer has me feeling so many things. 💚
This comment got me tearing up. I didn't catch this
A perfect comment
Good memories ❤️
Ganondorf is so lucky. He still has 1 month to live to say goodbye to his friends
😂
Great comment
FR 😂
Ganondorf about to win this battle and then will the trilogy
@@Bad616 This!! What if, narratively speaking, he "Wins" in the game and we don't beat him? Setting up the final zelda game in the franchise... lol.
*All I gotta say is the hype is real 10/10 trailer*
BOTW trailer was more hype
@@Jimmy_Jones No this tops it by a landslide
@@Jimmy_Jones nah
Nah
Nah I watched the botw presentation trailer for the first time yesterday so no nostalgia bias here and this blows it out of the water
Ganondorf: Do not look away.
Me: Oh I won't sir.

DUNGEONS!
AIRSHIP!
*BUBBLE?!*
Always love your reactions, HMK
😂
was looking for this bro had me dying 🤣
😂
best part of the whole reaction! i felt the same way when i watched
DANJENSSSS!!
This is the hypest reaction I have ever seen and you 100% transferred that energy because this was an awesome reaction and an awesome trailer!!
“BUBBLE!” this took me out😂😂
I was watching this with my sister we both were screaming Ganondorf design look baddass, this trailer is amazing.
I cannot wait to play this.
2:22 BUBBLE??? This made me die laughing. I cant wait to play this game!!
when he said that i lost it😂
Hmk is such a fucking king at reacting with maximum energy
I WAS IN TEARS BY THE END NO PUN INTENDED OH GOD

My favorite was the npc with a bucket on his head he’s ready to take down Ganondorf’s army lol

I find this interesting:

I don’t think she’s just in the sky or underground.
She is in the past.

Agree. The “you must come and find me” line sounds similar to a plot device in Howls Moving Castle, where there was a time element involved.
That would explain the more ancient-like clothing
ur mom was in my past ;) hello son, I've returned
Would also explain that shot of a restored hyrule castle throne room in that shot with link
I caught this as well! It seems very much so like she's in the past! I wonder if the master sword shes holding near the end of the trailer is broken or not!?
“DUNGEONS UNDERGROUND!!!
AIRSHIPS!!!
..BUBBLE?”
This is why I love watching your reactions 😂
Why is Ganondorf so freaking buff and so badass looking just wow
And look at the king haired dude that’s prolly demise!!!😈
Long*
He got that ‘Malice GH’ desert-dwelling boost
@@Eternal_Tr thats still ganondorf you can tell his hands are green.
@@mionaruse2748 no because Ganondorf’s hair isn’t that long its gotta b Demise
This trailer was fucking perfect it blew my entire soul away
This trailer is S+ tier
I watch HMK to see the external manifestation of my inner feelings as I watch these trailers with a straight face. He hits the nail on the head every time!
Thank you for the work that you do.
Long time fan🙏🏿
I love HMK's energy in general, but especially in this reaction vid, bro is ecstatic.
I think it’s safe to say that this is no expensive DLC after watching this trailer
If it was then it will be the biggest dlc ever made
The Reaction I was waiting for!
Best part 3:54 HYPE let's go.
That was crazy. You literally were making points in the moment which were spot on with others going back and pausing it to say the same thing, goes to show your on board knowledge of the botw/totk

This trailer was just as amazing as the switch presentation one. This somehow made me even more excited man
Bro this trailer looks so insane I so can't wait and my boy Ganondorf is finally back I'm so excited
Ganondorf has finally rehydrated
“BUBBLE?!” took me out 😂😂😂
I can always count on you to hype me up man. I had the exact same reaction to the "BUBBLES???".
When Ganondorf showed up in this trailer, I had the same reaction as you, HMK. I can’t wait for this game to come out in May!
The way every time a big, new looking creature popped on screen I was also screaming "BOSS! THAT'S A BOSS!" lmao
This is by far the best reaction I’ve seen to this trailer. The sheer level of hype emanating off of this man as he watched ganon is in godly
Maybe the best reaction video of all time. I came back to this after playing more of the game. Legendary reaction. We can only hope the next game will get us to this level.
I love your “The New Champions Have Risen!”
Epic quote dude!
It feels like yesterday when you reacted to BotW's final trailer. 6 years later we're here, 1 month away from TotK .
Like Revali's Gale, I am ready for this game!

It’s the “BUBBLES???” That makes me enjoy watching reaction videos 😂 cause honestly, relatable
2:08 That's Ganondorf becoming Demise.
Remember, he is after all the reincarnation of the ancient demon king.
Watch me fool around and make this the first Zelda game I beat 100%. My coworkers and students are going to be very annoyed by me today lol.
Yo! I haven't seen this trailer yet so I'm gonna be hyped right alongside your reaction! LET'S GOOOOO!
I started watching your Zelda reactions since the last BOTW trailer before its release. And 6 years later here I am. That was a pure Proust madeleine 🔥
Spectacular and chock-full of new stuff, what an incredible last trailer, I'm even more looking forward to playing this in a month than I already was!
The zelda's lullaby notes on the end ... is just a great way to finish the trailer
2:20 “Undergound! Airships! Bubble?!” 😂😂
😂 that took me out
Hahaha, I’ve seen this trial a hundred times now, and your energy is contagious, dude. I was geeking out all over again with you, man.
This brings me back to “LAUNCH LAUNCH LAUNCH”
love your zelda reactions man, this game is gonna be game of the year for sure
I've been watching your videos ever since the Zelda wii u days. I can't believe Tears of the Kingdom is almost here!!!! Let's gooo!!!!!

"Dungeons underground! Airships! Bubble!?!" lol
I watched a lot of reaction trailers today but your reactions are by far the best.
HMK always got the best hype reactions 😆
🤣🤣🤣 "bubbles???" Awesome react vid
I loved your hyped energy bro, I felt the exact same way! I could watch this trailer 1,000 times and still feel the same way every time! 😭
I've been waiting six years to see this reaction.
Definitely this is the video reaction that I was looking for! Amazing.
Thank you! THIS is the trailer I was waiting for.
Honestly hearing the Zelda theme come in within the last minute made me cry
i've already watched your reaction about 10 times, its the best!!
Merry Christmas HMK!
Bruh my reaction EXACTLY I am so fuckin hyped rn thank you for giving the same energy! Just makes me more excited for the hype to come while actually experiencing the game!
I love this guy’s reaction lol
Been looking for and forward to his reaction!
THEY COOKED WITH THIS TRAILER 🔥🔥🔥
3:57 The loudest I heard him scream since the Smash Bros. Switch first announcement when he beat his chest
I GOTTA KNOW, is that Hylia herself at 4:00!?!?!?
I really love ur reaction bro ! So hype

You always have the type of reaction that we all have in our heads, i absolutely love these ❤
I'm so glad!
2:18 JAJAJAJAJA that "Bubble??!" was so funny XD
My god you're right about it being Arbiters Grounds! I totally forgot that it was a location in BOTW.
Hands down, best reaction! Lol. Your hype is so freakin’ infectious! Lol
"Dungeons? Underground?? Airship??? BUBBLE?!?!?!?!"
😂
Idk where this came from but this trailer. Is a blessing. I’m so hyped

GET TO IT!
This is the reaction I wish I could do during work as I watched. 😂 I thought I was the only one to tear up. 😅 This game will be epic!
I have not seen one reaction as hyped as yours 😂
That’s pure joy right there 😂😂😂
I just knew you were gonna flip your lid when Ganondorf started yelling.
The reaction videos I always look forward to 😂
HMK: Hype Masta Killa!
Your reactions are the best and so hype! 😆
Love HMK’s reactions
Dude. You were quick to notice thats Teba’s kid, Tulin.
Good eyes!

4:47 Gotta love that Goofy holler impression 😆
