* CastFromHitPoints: If you refuse to hit Whacka during his boss fight, he will have to self-inflict damage (by making ceiling objects fall on his head) to build up Whacka Bumps for use. Considering that one Whacka Bump can restore 25 HP or inflict 10 damage when he loses only 1 HP per bump, there is arguably no drawback at all besides him wasting a turn.

* AFatherToHisMen: A firm believer that NoOneGetsLeftBehind, per his underlings in the third game. He considers it a personal offense should anyone make a mockery of his loyal followers, whether it be Mario himself or an even greater villain.

* NiceGuy: He's nothing but friendly and cheerful.

-->'''Luigi:''' Have you ever experienced a time when no matter how hard you tried, you failed, and the time you spent felt wasted? If you ever feel such pangs of regret, try to remember this tale... the story of a young man's quest to save a sweet princess.

* OutofFocus: Outside of his major role in ''Super Paper Mario'', where he is important to the plot and is playable, though only late into the game and not permanently, Luigi role in the other games in the series is generally minor, if not inconsequential, especially for a main character, and even when he does help Mario, he doesn't do much.

* AdaptationalDumbass: While Luigi is a CowardlyLion in the main games, he makes up for it by being extremely clever, able to expertly navigate hostile areas and solve puzzles using his wits alone. Here, Luigi's cowardice is heavily downplayed and largely replaced by a sense of recklessness that leads to him getting into trouble.

* OutOfCharacterMoment: His plan to [[spoiler:possibly destroy the Paper world]] in ''Paper Jam'' is unusually destructive by Bowser's standards ''The Origami King'' reigns him back in and re-establishes his [[EvenEvilHasStandards usual morals]].
