Majora's Wrath is the third and final manifestation of the final boss in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. After Majora's Incarnation is defeated, Majora revives with a strengthened body and a much more deliberate, aggressive bloodlust. In addition to a newly formed demonic head, Majora returns with long, whip-like appendages in place of arms with which it uses to attack Link with surprising accuracy and finesse. Overall, this final form has a very demonic aesthetic, yet manages to retain the child-like, psychotic mannerisms so integral to Majora's character.
[edit] Battle
Majora's Wrath is arguably the most difficult boss in the game. Its attacks usually revolve around creative use of its whip-like tentacles, which may be used to strike or grab Link from afar, usually knocking him down. Furthermore, Majora's Wrath may spin around like a ballerina with its tentacles extended or unleash a rapid-fire barrage from a standing position. In addition, after taking enough damage, Majora's Wrath will start throwing spiked tops that spin around the room and explode upon coming to rest. In order to damage Majora's Wrath, Link must first stun it, either with an Arrow, or with his Zora Boomerangs. In this state, it may then be damaged with conventional sword strikes. Link should also be shielding most of the time to block any far-reaching whip attacks that Majora's Wrath might use, as well as any spinning spiked tops that come his way.
Zora Link's electrical shield is the most useful, because it allows Link to get close to Majora's Wrath while taking minimal damage, making it easier to stun it. If Majora's Wrath grabs Link, the electric shield can also be used to send a shock through the tentacles, stunning it.
An alternative method is to simply use the Fierce Deity's Mask, which makes the battle significantly easier.
After the final blow is delivered, Majora disintegrates along with the rest of the Moon. Majora's Mask is left behind, finally cleansed of its evil. The Happy Mask Salesman picks it up and leaves after a few kind words with Link.
