Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 This appears to be filler text with no specific meaning.
- ↑ This is the Japanese name for The Indigo-Go's.
- ↑ This is more recognizable as Hylian text in the original Majora's Mask. It may have been changed to a more nondescript symbol in Majora's Mask 3D due to lack of a meaning.
- ↑ Should be:
- ↑ These are the first seven morae of the Gojūon, the Japanese equivalent of the alphabet.
- ↑ Should be:
- ↑ This paper is seen next to a shark mounted on the wall.
