The Couple's Mask is a difficult-to-acquire mask in Majora's Mask. A Couple's Mask is a sign of two people dedicating their lives to each other by creating two wedding masks and combining them to form a Couple's Mask, a ritual which signifies that the two people are now married.

The mask is different from others in Majora's Mask in that it gives the wearer no special ability or attribute; the mask's only use is in Mayor Dotour's office during a meeting on the first day: by showing Dotour the Couple's Mask during the meeting, the mayor will end the meeting and give Link a Piece of Heart.


Creating the Mask

The Couple's Mask is formed through the merging of two separate masks, the mask Link obtains being made from the Sun Mask and the Moon Mask. The merging seems to be simple, happening if the two lovers simply press each mask against the other. It then seems to be tradition to allow a witness to this union to take the Couple's Mask that results. Although it is uncertain if the Couple's Mask is always made up of a Sun Mask and Moon Mask, the form the final mask takes seems to always be the same. [1]

The Moon Mask is a ceremonial mask created by Anju for use as her ceremonial wedding mask, and is one half of the Couple's Mask. It is kept by Anju on a mannequin in her room at the Stock Pot Inn. Combining this mask with the Sun Mask results in the Couple's Mask. As a separate mask, the Moon Mask is not obtainable in the sense that the other masks are.

Combining this mask with the Moon Mask results in the Couple's Mask. As a separate mask, the Sun Mask is not obtainable in the sense that the other masks are.

Obtaining the Mask

The Couple's Mask is obtained in the longest and most difficult sidequest in Majora's Mask. See Reuniting Kafei and Anju for further information.
