{{Nihongo | {{Nihongo|'''Linkle'''|リンクル|Rinkuru|lead=yes}} is a fictional character who appears in various versions of ''[[Hyrule Warriors]]'', a non-canon spin-off title in [[Nintendo]]'s ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' series, starting with the 2016 [[Nintendo 3DS]] release of ''Hyrule Warriors Legends''. She was originally featured in concept art for ''Hyrule Warriors'', and was conceived as [[Link (The Legend of Zelda)|Link]]'s sister, though this idea was rejected by ''The Legend of Zelda'' designer [[Eiji Aonuma]] who felt this conflicted with Link's sister, Aryll, in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]''. | ||
The decision to include her in ''Hyrule Warriors Legends'' was due to a strong response to the concept art. Reception towards Linkle was generally positive, though it was mixed across different groups. Western fans showed more excitement for her than Japanese fans. There were also disagreements with regard to how Linkle was executed, namely with the concept of a female Link. | The decision to include her in ''Hyrule Warriors Legends'' was due to a strong response to the concept art.
