After falling from the sky into a world she wasn't entirely sure existed, she managed to get herself through monster-strewn woods while being actively pursued, fought her way through the Skyview temple alone and ''unarmed'', and made 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 illing 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.

At first, Link can only watch as Ghirahim fights Impa and Zelda, but then he realizes that the barrier preventing him from jumping in is weakening, so what does Link do? He jumps into the air, and slams right into Ghirahim just as he's about to finish off Impa. Made even more awesome if you choose the IronicEcho dialogue choice, "Am I late?" It's not every day the HeroicMime gets to be a DeadpanSnarker. Especially satisfying if you ''don't'' feel Link deserved the above speech (since she gives it regardless of how much time you wasted, if any).

** An underappreciated moment comes in the form of Impa's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Link in the Earth Temple. Though she still has some faith in Link's ability to get the job done, she's not afraid to call Link out for taking too long to save Zelda.

If this failure is any indication, you have no hope of defending Her Grace from those who seek to assail her. Do my words anger you, boy? Do my words sting? Let them. If I had not come when I did, your Zelda would already have fallen into the hands of the enemy. The truth of it is you were late. You were late, and you failed to protect her. I sent Zelda ahead to learn more of the fate in which she is destined to play a part. Listen well, chosen one.

** The Ancient Cistern. Yeah, it's a little annoying at first, but then you realize that Link is practically acting out an IndianaJones movie. Between the whip and the trap upon finding the [[spoiler:idol/big key]] key]], it's something to behold. Oh, and it's hard not to laugh when you're being chased by [[spoiler:''Zombie Bokoblins'']] up a rope.

** 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 players are still learning to use the motion+ controls. This makes this scene the best one to display Link's [[TookALevelInBadass growth in strength and skill]], which is helped by the fact that Ghirahim himself does not even try to hide to his ''own troops'' that he is sending them to a certain death]]
