In the {{MM|Himekawa}}, Kafei is first mentioned by [[Anju's Mother]], and later Anju explains his disappearance after nursing [[Deku Link]]'s injuries. He later makes an appearance as he tries to get into the Stock Pot Inn. Link, thinking Kafei was up to no good, chases Kafei away which causes him to drop a letter addressed to Anju. Link delivers the letter to her, and she decides to wait for Kafei. Link later tracks down Kafei, and interrogates him, thinking he is a minion of the Skull Kid. Kafei explains what happened to him, and asks Link to take him to the Skull Kid. Kafei pleads with the Skull Kid to change him back to an adult, who then fires a blast of energy at Kafei, gravely injuring him. Anju appears and the two embrace as Link enters the final battle with Majora's Mask. After the battle, Kafei changes back into an adult, and he and Anju enjoy their wedding day. | In the {{MM|Himekawa}}, Kafei is first mentioned by [[Anju's Mother]], and later Anju explains his disappearance after nursing [[Deku Link]]'s injuries.
