The DECEPTIVE Nature of MAJORA (Zelda Theory)

In today's theory, we take a deeper look into the character of Skull Kid and how he was used as a pawn for a greater, much darker scheme...
It goes without saying that the Skull Kid was a victim in this story, but today we find the answer to why he put on the mask as well as how it was able to easily control him.

[@qraz3228]

Skullkid has 76 new friends when I said this

[@andietheviolist9177]

raccon builders, it probably happened outside of the loop. When he time travels, we can assume (from the cutscene when Link first plays the song of time) that this loop starts during the game’s intro, probably when Link first finds the Skull Kid in the Lost Woods. At that point, he already had the mask. At this point, I bet you’re wondering why he can’t spam the Song of Time to travel back to when Skull Kid got the mask. In the game, it’s implied that regardless of when you rewind time, you will always start at the beginning of the same 3-Day loop. (Except the intro was probably part of that: the game won’t make you replay it, though, b/c it’s all tutorial.) [The Song of Time doesn’t care if you were about to enter the Moon, or if it were 6:01AM on the first day. When you rewind time, you go to the same spot.]

It's amazing how many folks break this game down, but never bother to get into the meat of what really drives the story of Majora's Mask. They get into how it fits into the overall Legend of Zelda lore, but never for its own sake. Love that you had the thought to actually break this down

I have somthing to add to this theory. Some more evidence. In breath of the wild when you put majora's mask on enemies don't attack you, they think you are one of them. A friend.

[@nathangelaude4787]

Carter Briggs actually, it says that it makes you harder to detect and I’ve had enemies see me, come up to me, then look around for me when I’m 3 feet in front of them, so they don’t know I’m there, and because of this I think that it actually has some form of extremely powerful cloaking magic, and that it is from an amount of magic that either never left, or was put into the mask by some deity or powerful creature.

[@KHolly-nn7bl]

I mean......True. OOT/MM Link does have the soul of a hero and he's strong, but....He kinda is a little "hurt". I've seen theories about OOT/MM Link have regrets. I forgot what the regrets specifically were but I think it has to do something with Zelda sending Link back to his original time, leading to no one knowing what he went through (In the child timeline) as the Hero of Time.....Which then leads to The Hero's Shade teaching the next Link new abilities, putting his regrets to an end. I don't know why but I just thought I would mention this.

[@popsicIes]

You're 100% correct! I could definitely see Majora bribing Link with something along the lines of "I could make them all remember..." or something like that. I think the major(a!) difference, though, is that Skull Kid was genuinely sad; it's a lot easier to take control of someone who's already in a weakened state. Link might have those regrets, but I don't think that would be enough to weaken him, if for only a short time.

[@ShadowSora8491]

Link's good nature would help him fight through any attempts from Majora to corrupt him. While Hero of Time Link eventually died with regrets, he still had a habit of putting the needs of others before his own, which is why he stayed in Termina, until he could save it from Majora, before he resumed his quest to find Navi.

@@popsicIes It makes me think of ordinary people who exploit others when they have the chance. Like insulting someone, knowing they will get away with it no matter what, or using someone they just met. Doesn't even have to be known by the "victim" either. It's the mask a lot of people put on to get what they want. Other people put on other masks, but it's not to deceive anyone. It's to keep overwhelming emotions from spilling out at the wrong time. We autistic people have to do that, because otherwise, we would drown other people with our own feelings. We feel that much. Masks.. both literal and metaphorical ones sure are interesting..

"Forgive your friend." They were telling Link to forgive Navi for leaving him. As long as we're doing sub-conscious fan theories... Imagine Link found Navi, found that Fairies only live on a limited lifespan, and her time is almost up. Navi will die in 3 days. Over the course of the next 3 days he tries everything he can to save his friend. The story of Majoras mask is Link coping with that loss.

[@ZeranZeran]

[@makiroll218]

During the amazing fan made trailer for Majora’s Mask, I forget they’re names,but the happy mask’s salesman is sitting by a campfire he made and is staring at Majora’s mask and reaches out to it but suddenly pulls away and passes out. This reminds me of Lord of the Rings with Frodo being tempted by the ring. When the skull kid picks up the mask he looks like he can sense some sort of evil in the mask but Majora’s temptation is too much for him and puts it on. You can see the rope like strands take over his head and forcing it to stay there on his face. During which the skull kid screams and writhes in pain until Majora has control. The part of him screaming as he puts the mask on reminds me of when link puts on either the Deku mask, Zora mask, or Goron mask.

Your theories are always pretty solid, so I'm excited to see you tackling one of the more theory intensive games in the series! I'd like to direct you to a certain theory: The Stone Tower Temple was built as heresy to the gods to attempt to invade Heaven. This theory has many, many, MANY layers and is kind of complicated to work through. However, it was always a favorite of mine and one I consider to be very likely to be real (At least, some of it - there are parts I don't agree with due to them clearly going way further than Nintendo would intend)

[@ETHomerin]

Great video! I've wondered if the Imp was actually the individual who became the mask. Like the Imp might have refused the order of the giants to leave and they turned him into a mask that was later sealed inside Stone Tower Temple by an ancient tribe that it ruined, but the skull kid with his own feelings of abandonment became drawn to it. Basically the Imp was someone else but the Skull kid sort of became him completely while also being someone else. Kind of a paradox but the hero of time's journey seems to be just that. The game's obscurity makes it so incredible. The fun thing about Mask though is every theory anyone comes up with pretty much has some kind of hole.

You know. . . I don't blame Skull Kid, it's not his fault, but I do blame the Giants. Just put yourself in Skull Kid's shoes for a moment. You are a lonely child, who have four closest friends. They were your only friends. However one day, they "abandon" you in order to protect the world. Betrayed and anger and just wanting to see his old friends, he causes mischief, the people called forth the Giants. However, instead of helping their old friend, instead of understanding why the Skull Kid was acting out. His would-be friends instead threaten to kill and banished him from his home. Keep in mind during all of this, Skull kid is in fact, a child. A scared and frightened child; betrayed by his friends, and abandoned by them. It is no wonder why Majora thought Skull Kid was an ideal host for itself, Skull Kid was weak, he was hurting, and all he wanted was his old friends back even though they betrayed him. The Giants; due to their poor treatment of their "friend", crafted a perfect host for Majora. None of this would've happened if it weren't for the Giants' mistreatment of Skull Kid. I am not saying that I agree with Skull Kid's actions. However, I understand that his actions weren't done out of malice, he was a child who was hurt and upset, and those whom he thought of as friends both abandon and banished him. The Giant's may have thought themselves noble by swearing to protect Termina and its people. But they failed to protect their friend. I was personally happy that Skull Kid met the Hero of Time and befriended them in OoT. Which leads me to my own personal theory on Majora's Mask. Perhaps Skull Kid wasn't as weak-willed as everyone thought. Because why would he attack Link and steal his Ocarina and take Eponia? I believe that Skull Kid; subconsciously influence Majora into attacking his new friend that he met during the events of OoT. In order to get Link to notice that someone was wrong with his friend, I personally believe that Link went/follow Majora into Termina not only to save Epona and get the Ocarina of Time back but also to rescue his friend from Majora.

[@forroforro9781]

Hello Nintendo Black Crisis, I have a theory which I will try to make it really simple in order to win time reading ... Games : Oot, MM, TP Interlopers used powerfull dark magic during civil war to reach trifoce. They were sheikah rebels. Fierce diety was the most powerful dark magic used by a power full sheikah to win the civil war. Godnesses had to stop them and punish interlopers by sealing their dark magic. Without any more power and control they have been banished from hylians people and traveled to gerudo lands, defintly banished to the dark realm. Some of them stayed in hyrule hiding. The masksalesman is one of the sheikah rebel. In order to take back the powerful power of the fierce diety, he tricked Link. He (or another powerful sheikah) created majora's mask in which fierce deity power is sealed. Termina was created as a real world by a dark magic (mask salesman asked Link to retrieve his mask be fore he leaves in 72hours which is the exact same time of the moon crash). Fierce diety represent (according to eiji anouma) all the memories of people of termina meanings all people that Link helped in order to get better. But Salesmaskman always told to Link that he wanted people happier with his masks. In order to win against Majora, the only way to obtain the fierce deity mighty power was to have all masks after that majora boy appearance would take all link's masks and would give the fierce deity mask in order to play with him. If Link win the majora's "game", termina would survive to the moon. The majora's mask returned to masksalesman after majora's defeat but the next tricky part is the fierce deity mask. Masksalesman was waiting inside the clock tower until the battle ends and took back fierce deity mask to hide it and also get back majora's mask. When link awakes, Masksalesman even says just after looking to the majora's mask on his hands : "so the evil has left the mask after all...". He didn't care about majora's mask or majora's evil killing everyone in Termina, he only cares about fierce diety power which he took back because of Link. Thank you for reading, hoping you enjoyed !

[@sethdracanseth601]

I remember from the Legend of Zelda Manga for Majora's mask that at the end there's this scene where a figure resembling the Hero lulling this weird dragon beast to sleep and carving the mask out of its body.

[@succubasu]

An old theory, but a small tidbit further strengthens it. In the story, it talks about how the Giants can be summoned by shouting something like "the blizzard has trapped us" or "the ocean is going to swallow us". What happens in those related areas? There's a blizzard trapping the gorons, and the ocean is so turbulent from the storm that no one can go out in boats or swim too far out

[@lnsflare1]

Theory: Skull Kid and Majora are the same person, in the same way as Ganondorf and Demise. When the imp went to the heavens, what it actually did was throw away it's malevolent will, which was sent to the moon and the mask was the path for it to come back. Or maybe the Happy Mask Salesman and Majora head that relationship, considering how alien he is, how the Moon Children have his face underneath their masks, and how there are a lot of parallels between him and Ganondorf (red hair, plays the piano/organ, knows at least one medic spell, is familiar with the secret magical artifacts of the Hyrulian Royal Family, manipulates Link into doing his dirty work for him, has access to Sheikah magic, has a Gerudo Mask, is able to freely traverse the Lost Woods, and has/is seeking powerful sealed monster/artifacts).

Second for me

[@_.El._]

Mejoras Mask is my favorite game cause I relate to it a lot...by Nature I’m a person who will help anyone in need and feel helpless when I can’t. Also I understand why Skullkid felt the way he did cause a broken heart really does blind you to logic and ration. Majora much like evil delights in pain and suffering and this game captures that well.

[@puline397]

This was interesting. I liked the part about him bringing the moon down so his friends would come back and save him :) It's also curious that he caused the events that the Giants used as examples xP One thing, though: Hyrule = heaven... Are you confirming the theory of Termina being the purgatory?:P

[@GeneralGud]

Another thing that I believe to be a proof that the entrance to Termina is in the Lost Wood is the legend that anyone who isn't a Kokiri who ventures in the Lost Wood will disappear. What if they have not disappeared but fallen to Termina. Terminians might just be the descendants of these people who disappeared who forgot about Hyrule over time. It would also explain why Kokiri are the only Hyrulian species not to exist in Termina.

Termina was created by majora as a illusionary realm. Majora has a aility to create tentacles and manipulate minds. When skull kid found the salesman asleep, he searched he's bag, he picked up majoras mask and the burned yellow in its eyes and wrapped it's self around skull kid

[@Guntherson220]

Can you imagine if Ganondorf got his hands on the mask before the Happy Mask Salesman, OOT would have been a *very* different game.

Using Majoras mask and Super Paper Mario’s in the same video? Sign me up!

[@qraz3228]

At 6:49 you can see A MARIO HAT ON THE CART (Btw if you can get that in the game anyways then ignore me because I can't get past the first 3 day cycle)

"Breath of the wild link is immune to majora." - me who just thought of that

[@igimaster5872]

@Katie Lewis it lost all it's power after being destroyed by link

[@igimaster5872]

@Katie Lewis i mean it was sacred and as far as we know sacred items in zelda can't be destroyed (master sword for example)

[@giantenemycrab1192]

I don’t believe dlc is canon anyway

[@cakemakenavantiya]

What if Majora is not a sentient entity by itself, but after being worn by someone, it absorbs all the dark energy within them and can then take on a life of its own. That would explain why the Mask wanted to crash to moon onto the Earth: because it was feeding off of the Skull Kid's subconscious desires

[@granspectre]

Oh ho? A Majora's Mask theory? How did I miss this? This is the game I was wondering if were going to make videos about. Very few ever touch on skull kid, and so this was great to watch. There is one theory in this game I am wondering if you would be interested in making, but I would rather message you directly on this one if you were interested.

CHUGGAACOROY! That’s super cool reference! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jenbreatheafire]

Not even gonna lie o cannot believe you played that version. Ocarina was my first game and I remember waiting for majoras mask to be released. I remember one day going into funcoLand games, yup, that old, and the Japanese demo was in store. I remember seeing link do that stupid flip for the first time and I’ll never forget how crazy 7 year old me went. Now 20 years later and over a thousand times played and majoras mask is still one of my favorites.
