Kiyosumi Lyra Defeats Calamity Ganon Again and Reaches Breath of the Wild’s True Ending

HOLOLIVE — Kiyosumi Lyra of UNIT B defeated Calamity Ganon in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Sunday and watched the game’s true ending, wrapping up a stream of nearly five hours.

The session opened in Zelda’s research lab, where Lyra read the princess’s records aloud and then worked through the last of the game’s photographed memories. After a long search for the final location, she recovered it and the memory showed Zelda’s last moments before the Calamity. Lyra said she was moved that Zelda’s efforts had held Ganon back. She also told viewers she had bought the game’s downloadable expansion, which had added new challenges.

“That was fun. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. I enjoyed it so, so much.” — Kiyosumi Lyra, after the ending

With the memories complete, she turned to the expansion’s Trial of the Sword, in which weapons are sealed and the player must fight through tiers of enemies. Lyra took several runs at it, collected weapons and food between stages, and was caught by her own bomb barrels more than once. One run reached a late tier before she was knocked out, and she left the trial unfinished. A second challenge, in which a single hit kills either side, she judged harder than Ganon.

She then went back to the final boss. Changing outfits first, she fought Ganon with the Champions’ abilities and brought him down. She said it felt good that the win came with everyone’s help, and the true ending followed. When the credits sequence finished she thanked viewers for staying, and eight Super Chats arrived during the stream, several of them congratulating her on the ending.

Lyra said she planned to play more of the expansion, including the sword trial again. She will join a Minecraft stream at 8 p.m. the same day, and her next game will be The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, starting in November, which she said she would play blind.
