I see it as a continuation of the "eyes of Ganon" that some villagers allude to in Zelda II. I like the concept that there are some people that also side with Ganon, kind of like a silly version of how in Lord of the Rings there are humans that fought for Sauron.

The Yiga were sometimes a little too over the top, and particularly in BotW there seemed to be inconsistencies regarding how serious of a threat they are. Sometimes they were treated as a total joke but other times they were a very serious force to reckon with. TotK definitely made them more of a joke than anything which I suppose makes sense.

They're basically just like Orin in BG3, like it works twice but then you're just like "I get it."

I think I liked how they were handled in Age of Calamity best. They were still silly, but also managed to be a genuine threat and have some interesting story beats around them.

Age of Calamity isn't a real game.

I've never played the games, but presumably they're a reference to this?

Maybe the Japanese fanbase just really loves them for some reason. Like Tingle.

They're semi recurring enemies. Like moblins and skulltulas.

Sheikah tribe members that were butthurt about how the Hyrule Royal Family treated them, so decided to join up with Ganon.
