They're my favorite race and they're so adorable!

and they aren't giant floating winges eyeballs.
The have feathertails! :D
and cool hats!
Can't forget that. The Minish Vaati hat is hard to make, I almost feel like giving up on it.
you're making a Vaati hat?
Yeah, a Minish Vaati one, but it's so complitcated to cut the fabric just right. I don't know how they do it.
Ting alone! Tong along! Diggin' holes for Kinstons! (I love that song! :D)
I know how they do it. Animation.
Huh? Animating a hat? :-\

Not really. The feather tail is a Minish Forest fashion. Town Minish and Mountain Minish don't have them.
I always just thought that Forest Minish, Mountain Minish, and Town Minish were just different races of Minish, and that having feathertails ran in the Forest Minishs' genes or something, but I guess not. I should just randomly wear a faether as a tail to school tomorrow and see what everyone's reaction would be. :) :D
whatever they do, I don't want to know...
I didn't do that today, but I've really outdone myself by dying my hair purple.
Is it true that the Minish language is really Japanese backwards? I heard it was.
Irocip doesn't sound Japanese.
I think it was for the manga.
Yes, it's Japanese backwards. When I read the manga online (they kept the minish language the same), I could recognize a few words backwards. Some things sounded similar in the game (the yekopo-sound), so I guess it's their official language.
Aw, I wish I knew Japanese. But it seems like such a hard language. :'(

hmm i no french greman and a bit of russian but i don't no japaness but i wish i could no it
Strange, because "Gufuu", which is Vaati's Japanese name, translates into "tornado" (something of the sort) and Vaati is the wind mage/sorcerer and in FS and FSA her controls the tornadoes.
wow...it's almost like they did it on purpose...
They may have. But I can't imagine naming someone "tornado"...maybe something..."fancier"...that someone wouldn't be able to guess what it meant.
they....did do it on purpose. That was sarcasm...
It's hard to tell. It would have probably been easier if you put a " ::)" smiley.
smileys are my enemies. I do not understand why they are still called smilies when they are angry or frowning. this confounds and infuriates me, and thus I hate them.... ::) happy?sarcasm.
Sorry I asked. ::)
Okay, back to the Minish.
I wish I could live in a Minish house. They're so small and cute.
wonder how many of their houses were used in Syrup's potions...while they were inside. I guess that's how it gets the red color eh?
Hmm. I never thought of that. I ate a mushroom (It was yummy) and I was thinking, "I'm eating a Minish's house."
plus the minish
Yes, the Minish too! ;D
The Picori are ADORABLE.
I drew one at school, and everyone kept asking me what it was... xD
I ADORE the sound the mountain Minish make when you talk to them. Yattako, Yattako.... <3 God, I don't know, I'm so obsessed with them now it's like the Zoras don't exist anymore. (and they didn't in Minish Cap. ;w; So that's probably why.)
Can you email me a picture of you dressed up as a Minish or vaati? My email is fairy_penguin2@yahoo.com. And Irocip is Picori spelled backwards. nintendo needs to use made up words instead of backwards words. Like shnizzlebizzle.
Today my cat was licking a mushroom in our yard and attacking it. xD It reminded me of the cats in TMC how they attack the minish people. D:
wow so Nintendo is on to something there.
To Fishalicious, yep. :) I always think "Minish house" whenever I look at a mushroom or a boot.
I love the Picori .There small and adorable .
I must be scary being them because there so small and we're so BIG
Probably. Of course, this is my theory of the life span of a Minish:
Forest Minish (Up to when they die of old age) Because since there a barely any humans in the forest, they can't get squished, but then again, there's rain.
Town Minish (Up to about 40 years old) Since they live in town and there's tons of humans and it probably rains alot.
Mountain Minish (Up to about 60 or 70) Since there's no humans, it only rains at the top of the mountain, but there can be falling rocks.

Well, a deer or a wild boar could do some major damage to a forest minish, ne?
Good point.
yep i agree with vaati
I wonder what religion the Minish are. Most assurely a made up one. I figured they're probably the same as the Hylians because of their pointed ears. And in OoT, I think, someone said that the Hylain's ears are pointed up so they can "hear the goddesses" or something like that. And the Minish have pointed ears too, so are their ears pointed up for the sames reason? Well, actually, their ears don't really point up, they point out, soooo...that kind of gets rid of that theory. :-\
Echolocation.
Or... well, I don't know. Most animals have large ears to help with hearing... or to cool themselves off. XD
No, see, the Goddesses thought it would be a good idea to bring pencil sharpeners into the world at the same time as the Hylians. Unfortunately, the Hylians weren't entirely certain what they were supposed to be sharpening.
I believe the Picori are religious, as a quote from Ezlo:
Oh...my...many...minish...Gods...
When did Ezlo say that? (Just trying to refresh my memory)
I know this isn't totally true, but in an old Ask Ezlo question someone asked what religion the Hylians are and Ezlo said "Triforcist" or "Triforcism" And in another question someone said "Happy Minishcha" or something like that. I forogt the rest of the word.
That has just made me confussed :-X
...Ask Ezlo is an advice column on TDC. Jack used to answer the questions as Ezlo...
It was Ask Ezlo Ezlo who said that, yes.
Ah, 'kay.
...Go Picori! :D
I wonder if they play any sports...
Probably, but not too extreme. By the shape of their legs, (a bit like a kangaroo's) it might be hard for them to walk backwards and run. They could probably hop. If you notice in Melari's Mine, there's one Minish that's running back and forth and it looks more like their hopping/skipping. They might be good at track since it's all running forward and there's jumping.
Professional mushroom-hopping.
That and cat-dodging and sewing needle fencing. Ooh! I wanna play those games!
Beetle rodeo. ;D
That would be intersting to watch. lol. :D
Roach Rodeo
Sewing Needle Fencing
Cat-Dodging
Grape Dodgeball
Mushroom Hopping
Minish Track
Minish Trap (Instead of Mouse Trap, lol)
Let's try extreme corn stalk climbing.
The Minish could have an Olymics-type thing with all of these sports! Now that'd be fun to see!
I think there's different dialects of Minish. If they lived on Earth, there'd probably be English-Minish, Spanish-Minish, French-Minish, German-Minish, Finnish-Minish (lol), Japanese-Minish...etc. According to where in the world they live.
I think Kafei would look like Vaati as a minish... but with more bangs and darker hair.
Yeah, and with out the purple skin. I drew what I would look like as a Minish, and I look like a Town Minish.
FinishMinish ftw!!!!!!
Ger-minish sounds better than German-Minish
Funny: Minish and Finnish sound a lot alike. And Vaati's a Minish, right? Well, 'vaati' is a Finnish word that means "command".
I thought Vaati was a Japanese word that meant wind? Ah well, that's still sweet. Vaati, commander of the Finnish-Minish army!
I don't know the origins of Vaati's name, but I love saying it.
Vaaaaaaaahhh-teeeee.
Oh, and the "fuu" in Gufuu means seal, I thought that was interesting.
I like to just call him "The Evil Dude."

Nope, that's "Gufuu", except it mean, like, tornado, or something.
That's really interesting, Fisk. Maybe Gu just means "wind". So Gufuu would be "wind seal". It kinda foreshadows what will happen to Vaati after you beat him in MC and FS, eh?
Back to the Picori.
Actually, Fisk, the same thing happens to me (when I draw Minish in school). One time in science, I was drawing Minish Vaati. And this kid comes and asks me what I'm drawing.
David: What are you drawing?
Me: A Minish.
David: What's a Minish?
Me: A race of small people from a videogame.
David: Huh?
Me:...(Slaps forehead with palm and runs hand down face)
