I’ve always liked 6-1. It’s tedious, but it was really cool with how urgent it was with the vortex ominously growing behind the fights.

In a story sense, which is where SPM shines most to me, hearing Ch6 bashed and Francis' Peach scene too was crestfalling. Those are great moments in this game which is full of quirky humor and immense stakes.

i always thought the pure hearts looked really yummy, like a fruit gusher and as a kid i always wanted to eat one

Things like O Chunk’s built-in grab counter and Bone Chill’s infamous Luigi cheese make me believe a difficulty hack of SPM would be pretty interesting. Something that’d add anti-cheese tactics like permanent icicles to Bone Chill’s ceiling or more HP for bosses (a vast majority of them have less HP than Muths, which I find kind of interesting?) I haven’t seen much modding with SPM though, I don’t know how much we’re capable of making with it yet

Really wish this game had a harder difficulty. They really could've leaned into bullet hell mechanics if they wanted to

O'Chunks puts Melee Marth's grab to shame.

Man you make Count Bleck look so easy. Good job, mate. This was great

Bowser quickly goes from ok to overpowered once you get carry

The “running away from battles is a valid tactic” quote made me smile

There's actually a really cool detail I only noticed in a recent replaying of this game that makes Francis so much easier to beat. I used to think it was just part of the music, but if you listen you can actually hear Francis walking around the room and can get a good idea of where he'll show up. You can also go into 3D with Mario and see his shadow on the ground as well.

Never knew you could throw boomer neat

Honestly, whenever I play this game, I just exclusively play as Bowser riding Carrie unless I need an ability from another character or Pixl.

Grinding is a little boring but actually really easy with a certain trick. In the first level when you get to the big star area run through everything but make sure a single coconut shooting guy is alive. Repeatedly trick off the coconuts without touching the ground and your score will skyrocket

I like that TTYD jab.

This channel really makes you appreciate the amount of secret interaction the Pixls have, like Fleep, I just never thought of using her on Bowser

The first Paper Mario game I've ever played. I love it

Best story of any Mario game.  Period.  The world is going to end because society can't handle an interracial couple.  Mario needs to help, but he can't because he's saddled with crippling debt.
There's a mini Mario civil war with brother against brother.  A Flower King goes insane because of pollution and decides to get even by brainwashing the dolts that poisoned him.
Mario goes to heck.  Then God and Satan decide to put a deity in the form of a child....hmmm.  That sounds familiar.
Mario takes a break and helps two old wizards swap some questionable media.
After overcoming all of that and finding their way back to each other, the interracial couple is rewarded with the sweet embrace of death.
Oh.  And Bowser's bounce sound is super cute.

Now I wouldnt call this no-hit run considering you have been "hitting" save block

Bowser isn't required for thudley it just seems like that becuase Bowser is big and stuff like that and Bowser actually has the lowest Girth score.

Such an underrated channel! :( your efforts are not going unnoticed!
