History Awesome / TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword

* Ghiranim finally, ''finally'' [[spoiler:receiving a well-deserved death at the hands of Demise. Sure, it was likely part of his plan, and he seemed to be enjoying it, but just knowing you're finally rid of the SmugSnake is gratifying.]]

* Who ever thought that [[spoiler: Impa would be a BadassGrandma? Surviving literally thousands of years in the sealed temple so when Zelda arrives she can set in motion the right things. THAT is awesome.]]

** The same with [[spoiler: Tentula. Yes, he [[{{Narm}} looks silly]], but the amazing atmosphere and equally cool subversion of the now typical BossRoom makes the fight seem really epic.]]

* Pulling the Master Sword out of its stone is something Link has done in many, many Zelda games to date. In Skyward Sword however, it is actually YOU, the player, who literally does the pulling thanks to Wii Motion Plus. And it is a glorious moment.

* Zelda. Zelda herself is a CMOA. After [[spoiler: falling from the sky into a world she wasn't entirely sure existed, she managed to get herself through a monster-strewn woods while being actively persued, fight her way through the Skyview temple alone and ''unarmed'', and make it through Eldin Volcano. Yes, she ended up getting captured and would have been caught by Ghirahim if it wasn't for Impa, but the fact that she made it there in the first place is pretty amazing.]] And, even after all that, she's still [[spoiler: willing to sacrifice herself for the good of the entire world. You know someone is pretty damn amazing when even [[BigBad Demise]] gives some reluctant props.]]

* The final "Jam Session", playing [[spoiler: The song of the hero, and hearing the main theme for the series play for the first time in the game, it has a special meaning because this is the first Link, which means it's chronologically the first time it's heard.]]

* Ghirahim [[ his darker, twisted, AxCrazy BloodKnight demon side, before his second fight. Actually, heck... every single thing he says! Both [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel creepy]] and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome awesome]]. Well, CreepyAwesome.]]

* The fight with Koloktos, which is one of the best boss fights in Zelda history. You even have to use a {{BFS}} it itself uses in a similar manner to using weapons dropped by enemies in ''TheWindWaker'', a feature absent since then.
** The battle is very reminiscent of an [[TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Iron]] [[TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask Knuckle]] fight. Link goes up against a large armoured humanoid with a [[{{BFS}} massive weapon]], and they're both pretty powerful and a lot of fun to fight. Add in a touch of [[TheLegendOfZeldaWindWaker being able to use its own weapon against it]], and the sheer epicness of the battle (as well as the [[AwesomeMusic/TheLegendOfZelda awesome music]]), and one can see why Koloktos is regarded as the BestBossEver.

* Ghirahim [[spoiler:revealing his darker, twisted, AxCrazy BloodKnight demon side, before his second fight. Actually, heck... every single thing he says! Both [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel creepy]] and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome awesome]]. Well, CreepyAwesome.]]

** Even moreso the third time. When rubble blocks the path to the bomb flower, Groose decides to launch ''Link'' at the beast, allowing him to finish the job.

* "[[DeadpanSnarker Am I late?]]"

** ''Then'' he tops it [[spoiler:[[BigDamnHeroes by performing an Epic Dash to save]] Zelda]].

** At this point, [[spoiler: a single strike of the Master Sword can send three-four Bokoblins ''flying'': these are the same Bokoblins which were probably a challenge in the early part of the game when most player are still learning to use the motion+ controls. This makes this scene the best one to display Link's [[TookALevelInBadass growth in strenght and skill]], which is helped by the fact that Ghirahim himself does not even troes to hide to his ''own troops'' that he is sending them to a certain death]]

* [[spoiler: Link literally going against an army of Bokoblins and Moblins in order to get to Zelda and Ghirahim. The numbers of the Bokoblins and Moblins have to be seen to be believed. Link then fights Ghirahim in his OneWingedAngel form, having to push him off the edge of the platform he is on. Ghirahim unleashes everything on Link right after they are on ground level, including wielding a HUGE sword.]]

* [[spoiler: Link riding on his Loftwing toward a GIANT WHALE IN THE SKY, then having to fight a parasite ontop of said whale. Your opinion may vary on the fight with Bicolyte, but the setting is amazing.]]

* "[[DeadpanSnarker Am I late?]]"

** Even moreso the third time. When rubble blocks the path to the bomb flower, Groose decides to launch ''Link'' at the beast, allowing him to finish the job.

* Groose helping Link take out the Imprisoned the second time with a cannon.
