* [[Canon Foreigner]]: Felicia, the [[Tsundere]] [[Fairy Companion]]. She's another Canon Foreigner fairy companion that predates Navi. There are also several original villains like Karuna, the Moblin swordsman, and Master Drona, the Hinox warrior.
* [[Distressed Damsel]]: {{spoiler|Surprisingly enough, not love interest Marin, but the fairy companion Felicia who is kidnapped by Moblins.}}
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: There seems to be a G-rated equivalent of [[Did You Just Have Sex?]] during a [http://www.otakuworks.com/view/87922/the-legend-of-zelda-links-awakening/vol-01/read/140 dialog exchange between Link and Felicia]. Of course, that isn't what actually happened, this is a Nintendo game after all.
* [[Girl Next Door]]: Interpretations of Marin in the game range from exotic islander to girl next door, the manga goes heavily into a girl next door interpretation.
* [[Heroes Want Redheads]]: Link likes the red-headed Marin.
* [[Heroic BSOD]]: {{spoiler|Link gets one in the manga after learning the truth about the island.}}
* [[It May Help You On Your Quest]]: Link is given the ocarina from Madam MeowMeow as a reward for rescuing Bow-Wow instead of finding it in the Dream Shrine like in the game.
* [[Jump, IllI'll Catch You!]]: Played straight between Link and Marin when they are attacked by monsters while traveling to the Animal Village.
* [[Lotus Eater Machine]]: {{spoiler|Since Link can actually talk in the manga, a good portion of the manga deals with Link's emotions as he eventually accepts that he must wake the Windfish and bring about the end of Koholint Island.}}
* [[Master Swordsman]]: One of Link's fights is with Karuna, a Moblin master swordsman.
Line 154:
* {{spoiler|[[Face Heel Turn]]: Agahnim was genuinely good-hearted until Ganon's power fucked his mind up.}}
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Ghanti, who started off as a bandit before becoming Link's friend.
* [[How Do You Like Them Apples?]]: Link wants to be an apple farmer. Keeping with the imagery, he also gets a healing apple.
* [[It Was With You All Along]]: {{spoiler|Ghanti's earrings}} turn out to be the weapon they will need to defeat their enemy.
* [[Love Triangle]]: Ghanti the bandit cites this as the reason for her reluctance to help Link rescue Zelda.
Line 205:
* [[Ironic Hell|Ironic]] [[Karmic Transformation|Transformation]]: Skull Kid turned Kafei into a child because Kafei (walking home from his bachelor party, late at night) turned down an invitation to play with the Skull Kid by saying "Kids like you should be in bed!"
* [[Prequel]]: The ''Majora's Mask'' manga includes a bonus story illustrating the creation of the titular mask.
* [[Ripple -Effect -Proof Memory]]: Link and Tatl are the only ones to experience it.
* [[Shout -Out]]: Mikau's grave has the epitaph, <ref>This only appears in the English and Italian versions, however; the original Japanese version was written before Guitar Hero's existence.</ref>
* [[This Is Unforgivable!]]: Link's reaction to Majora's Mask vagabonding the Skull Kid after he said the mask was his only friend, calling him worthless and trying to kill him. To put this in perspective, Majora's Mask gives Link the Fierce Deity's Mask (going by it's Japanese name the "Oni Mask") and tells him to become the oni a game of tag (Japanese terms for someone being "it"), and he agrees to the idea without a second thought.
* [[Tsundere]]: Tatl is a Type A example, as she was in the game.
Line 229:
* [[Marshmallow Hell]]: Link endures this with Impa.
* [[My Own Grampa]]: At the end of ''Oracle of Ages'', Link discovers that his actions in the past have {{spoiler|changed his family's history, and there is a portrait of ''himself'' hanging in his grandparents' house. His grandfather crossly reminds him that this is Link, their greatest ancestor, after whom he was named. So Link was, in the altered reality, named after himself.}}
* [[Ret -Gone]]: Veran attempts to do this to Link by ordering the execution of his ancestor. Includes Link experiencing [[Delayed Ripple Effect]] dizzyness with his hand fading out like in [[Back to The Future]] (possible [[Shout -Out]]?).
* [[Ripple -Effect -Proof Memory]]: Everyone in ''Oracle of Ages'' seems to have it.
* [[Sequel Hook]]: The ending of ''Oracle of Seasons'', with {{spoiler|the witches Koume and Kotake}} plotting the events of ''Oracle of Ages''.
* [[She Is Not My Girlfriend]]: Link keeps saying this to Ricky the kangaroo about Din in ''Oracle of Seasons''.
Line 256:

Line 268:

* [[Hilarity Ensues]]: Link taking the Four Sword splitting him into four Links with their own personalities, and each of them having just as much of an ego as him.
* [[Literal Split Personality]]: Each Link supposedly represents a facet of Link's personality. In Vio's words, [[The Determinator|Green is focused and motivated]], [[Hot -Blooded|Blue is hotheaded and aggressive]], [[Incorruptible Pure Pureness|Red is innocent and optimistic]], and [[The Stoic|Vio is calm and collected]].
* [[Medium Awareness]]: Just one moment, after Red thaws out Blue with the Fire Rod - and scorches his rear:
