History Funny / TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword

** It helps that the music also goes dead silent after you break the chandelier, as if to emphasize how badly you just messed up.

*** Related to this, you can scan the water basin with Fi to have her note how heavy it would appear to be. She concludes that she doesn't think it would be possible for the basin to be carried by a human, [[SincerityMode then immediately clarifies that she doesn't mean that as a dig at Link's physical prowess.]]

* Some monsters flee in terror at the sight of the beetle.

** If you ask Fi for rumors about Eldin Volcano, she'll occasionally describe how trying to traverse steep slopes will cause Link to slide down them on his backside... Followed by some quippy reassurance that he does so quite gracefully.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LgEA5KoB_U The cinematic]] after you insert the [[spoiler:Stone of Trials]]. Link's blank expression practically screams [[FlatWhat "What."]]

** One example is the first time you're exiting the basement floor via rope. [[spoiler:Out of ''nowhere'', the Cursed Bokoblins pop up and chase you up the rope, and if they catch you, you get to shake them off.]] It's hard to run away through the laughter.

** Another moment from the Cistern basement is when you finally get the idol. [[spoiler:A mob of Bokoblins springs from the ground and the statue above you begins to drop down from the ceiling/where it ''used to '''be''''' the ceiling.]] You could probably stay to fight them all off, but it's infinitely more satisfying to [[spoiler:sprint out of the way and watch the cinematic of them being squashed.]] And just for those budding PETM members: it's alright. They're already dead.

* Faron. From when Link first meets her wrapped up in her basin to her decision to [[spoiler:FLOOD THE FOREST]] to get rid of the monsters.

* Try and walk out of Beedle's shop without buying anything after looking at his wares. [[SchmuckBait Go ahead, try.]] [[spoiler:He opens a trap door beneath you, causing you to fall face-first to the ground.]]

** Gorko happens to walk by with a map in his hands while [[spoiler:Groose]] is freaking out. To which Groose reacts, in oversized text, "AND WHAT IS THAT THING?!" [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight Gorko doesn't even react]].

* The Cursed Bokoblins. Some find them [[NightmareFuel scary]], others find them hilarious. Even if the first time you're faced with a [[NinjaZombiePirateRobot horde of undead, leopard-print underwear-wearing monsters]] doesn't phase you, there are other moments. They're like the [[ButtMonkey Butt Monkeys]] of monsters.

* [[spoiler:[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp8lKGeSQZQ&feature Groose skydiving towards Link at a very fast pace.]]]] Link's [[OhCrap facial expression]] says it all.
** Later, he suggests they name the surface world [[spoiler:''[[{{Egopolis}} Grooseland]]''.]] [[LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand Even the music]] [[https://youtu.be/cu-vQwYkYZ4?t=160 thinks it's stupid.]]
*** ''Legend of'' ''[[spoiler:Groose]]''. Even he admits it was a joke.

** [[spoiler:Groose's]] reaction to the Surface, especially the 'tiny birds' which are later in the cutscene seen landing on him, with one even on his hair.

** Gorko happens to walk by with a map in his hands while [[spoiler:Groose]] is freaking out. To which [[spoiler:Groose]] reacts, in oversized text, "AND WHAT IS THAT THING?!" [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight Gorko doesn't even react]].

** [[MoodWhiplash Ghirahim's little victory dance]] [[spoiler:just before he starts the ritual to sacrifice Zelda's soul.]] He's just so ''giddy''.

** Bokoblins in general are [[ButtMonkey Butt Monkeys]] in the Zelda series, but nowhere else is it more apparent than in this game.

** Depending on your personal [[CharacterReactionIndex reaction trope]], you may end up yanking your hair and/or screaming in frustration, running off to tell someone about it only to [[ItWasHereISwear come back to find]] [[spoiler:the Sky Keep exposed]], or - just maybe - fall into StunnedSilence, and be ''just about'' to speak when [[spoiler:the rocks start falling apart]].

--> '''Groose:''' (''points to his hair in annoyance'') You lay off the do right now, or I'll flatten you. Everyone knows I've got the slickest pompadour in town.

---> You picked up a Rupoor!
---> That means you've lost 10 rupees.
---> [[AndThatsTerrible And that's a little bit sad.]]

* One of the Gratitude Crystal sidequests also counts. It's a MythologyGag centered around one of the weirdest [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment Big Lipped Alligator Moments]] from ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask Majora's Mask]]''. To wit: you discover somebody in the Knight's Academy's bathroom in the middle of the night, crying out for paper ("any paper!"). When you find paper, she lets you into the bathroom... to reveal that it's a [[spoiler:disembodied hand]] that appears from inside the toilet. The only thing that could make this better is the fact that the paper is actually a [[spoiler:love letter]]. It's truly a thing of wonder.
** If you analyze [[spoiler:the hand]], Fi advises you to "Cease being scared and talk to her".

* This line by [[spoiler:Ghirahim]] when Groose tries to block him.
-->'''[[spoiler:Ghirahim]]:''' Stand down. You're in my way, [[TakeThat and the sight of your appalling hair makes my gorge rise]].
* While [[spoiler:battling Demise, Link can whip out his bug-catching net. Demise will actually [[MythologyGag pause to stare at it.]]]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoMxru4J7f8 This fan video]] that adds lyrics to Groose's theme.

** Kina: "[[NeverLiveItDown Oh, look!]] [[DeadpanSnarker It's the brave knight who slayed the chandelier!]]"

** Alternatively, you can pull out your bug net to catch him and he reacts as though its a sword.

* When first encountering Batreaux, you can pull out your bug net to scare him and he reacts as he would with a sword.

--->'''Cawlin:''' Huh...? What's your problem? Why are you looking at the restroom? ... [[ParrotExposition What?]] There's someone in the restroom at night who wants... paper? YouFool How dare you? This is no ordinary piece of paper! It's a letter! (...) All right, fine! It's a love letter! And that is why you will not, under any circumstances, EVER allow it to be used as toilet paper! Do you hear me?!

--->'''Cawlin:''' Huh...? What's your problem? Why are you looking at the restroom? ... [[ParrotExposition What?]] There's someone in the restroom at night who wants... paper? YouFool How dare you? This is no ordinary piece of paper!

-->'''Ghirahim''': Stand down. You're in my way, [[TakeThat and the sight of your appalling hair makes my gorge rise]].

* When first encountering Batreaux, you can pull out your bug net to scare him.

** When inside the Goddess statue, she has some choice words about crucial parts of the prophecy being missing from hand-me-down version relayed by Gaepora.

** Likewise, after the 2 Mogmas mentioned earlier on the page mention how a girl fitting Zelda's physical description to the letter was taken into the Earth Temple, you can suggest to Fi that it was actually the very agile and capable Impa that they saw instead. By her calculations, the chances of that being true are 10%... [[WorseWithContext Rounded up.]]

* When you start searching for Zelda in Faron Woods and come across a Kikwi with her aura around it, answering "Zelda?" results in Fi giving an [[OverlyLongGag overly long analysis]] of the Kikwi that confirms, [[IfMyCalculationsAreCorrect with 95% accuracy,]] that the kikwi is not, in fact, Zelda. You know you've said something stupid when your ''sword'' [[DeadpanSnarker starts snarking at you.]]
** Also kind of funny: in this dialogue tree you can either choose "Zelda?", or instead you can have Link respond with a confused "[[FlatWhat Really?]]".
** Likewise, after the 2 Mogmas mentioned earlier on the page mention how a girl fitting Zelda's physical description to the letter was taken into the Earth Temple, you can suggest to Fi that it was actually Impa that they saw. By her calculations, the chances of that being true are '10%. Rounded up.'
** If you repeatedly fail a Silent Realm trial, Fi eventually states that "the chances of you not being the chosen hero are increasing..."

** If you ask Fi for rumors about Eldin Volcano, she'll occasionally describe how trying to traverse steep slopes will cause Link to slide down them on his backside... Followed up by a quippy "Quite gracefully, I'm sure, Master." It's up to the player whether this is meant to be snark or sincerity.
** Normally, after absorbing a Sacred Flame, Fi bounces off the walls a few times before coming to rest in front of Link. However, Nayru's Flame is situated on a ship's deck with no barriers in sight, so instead she rockets straight into the sky. An awestruck Link tries to spot her among the clouds... [[OhCrap only to realize his mistake]], diving out of the way as an enormous blue fireball almost slams back down on top of him.
** When analyzing a yellow Chuchu, she very logistically outlines how it will attempt to feed on Link after paralyzing him with electricity, before concluding that [[AndThatsTerrible "This is not pleasant."]]

-->'''Fi''': [[OblivioustoLove .........Master...]] We now have the means to bring the propeller back to Skyloft.

* After the [[spoiler:second Moldarach boss fight]] happens while you are searching for Skipper's ship, if you continue to search long enough, Fi will tell you that there is a 0% chance that the ship is there and that you should leave due to those "substantially unfavorable odds".
* "Ah yes, the oral tradition. One of the least reliable methods of information retention and transmission." Fi is just so hilariously matter-of-fact about how wrong Gaepora has gotten the prophecy.
** It becomes a bit ironic when you realize that what amounts to a talking sword is speaking that line.

* The Guays (crows in the forest) will sometimes poop on your shoulder. Link makes a horrified/disgusted face as he runs around with an adorable stylized poo on him.

* There's something funny about seeing [[TheComicallySerious Fi]] twirling in circles upside down, for no apparent reason, during Link's performance of Din's Power.
