The video tutorial explores the concept of tidal forces in the context of Majora's Mask, focusing on the density of the moon. It explains the mathematical derivations needed to understand tidal forces and compares the Earth-Moon system with the Termina-Moon system. The tutorial concludes with calculations showing the moon's density must be extremely high, akin to a neutron star or white dwarf, and challenges viewers to apply these concepts.
