What about Twilight Princess on GameCube?

What are you talking about specifically? BOTW is the next game I played after the N64 games and it tonally it felt like OOT2 to me

What do you mean by "weeb" culture?

sexualization of cartoon characters, lolis, and “kawaii”. There’s also animal ears and tails that are “sexy” in weeb culture.

I know you weren't the one who made the claim, but if this is what the commenter meant by weeb culture, I'm not sure how it has anything to do with, for example, Twilight Princess.

I haven’t played TP, though I’d like to. Also I love Zelda and I don’t think the IP is “ruined” like the OP said.

BoTW has some anime influences with a feminine but gender neutral Link, animal sexualization, and a few lolis. That being said, BoTW might be my favorite game of all time.

Not only that, Twilight Princess matches GP's preferred tone much more than Ocarina.

I don't remember anything like that in Breath of the Wild.

There’s a couple loli in BoTW.

The worst one is Purah who is supposedly 1,000 years old but in a child’s body. She wears a mini skirt and thigh high stockings

There’s Mipha as well and then lady Riju.

I personally don’t care because i really enjoyed BoTW. Some people do though.

I don't really see what you're saying re: Purah, but I'll take your word for it. Mipha and Riju are both adults, though, aren't they?

If it's just about their designs, Riju has the same basic design that Gerudo have had since Ocarina of Time, and as for Mipha, I'll just link to Princess Ruto's concept art:

No i was wrong, Mipha isn’t the loli, it’s Finley. Wrong Zora

Finley: https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Finley

For Riju: https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Riju

She might have the same basic design as an adult Gerudo, but she’s still a kid.

For Purah, it’s obvious. Pure loli with a silly huge bobble head.

Gerudo Link?
