!!Meggy Spletzer
->'''Voiced by:''' Elynn Barclay, Yuji Tsuji (voice clips)
->'''First appearance:''' "If Mario was in... Videogame/{{Splatoon}}"
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_142.png]]
[[quoteright:350:[[labelnote:Click here to see her appearance from "[=SMG4=]: Final Hours" onwards]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/meggy.PNG [[/labelnote]]]]
A female [[Videogame/{{Splatoon}} Inkling]] that Mario found stuck in a paint bucket, causing her to run amok and flee into a manhole that leads to Inkopolis, taking Mario along with her. She completes in Turf War tournaments with her team, the [=SplatSquad=]. She was very popular in her debut episode and quickly became an EnsembleDarkhorse. After her reappearance in "MARIO'S CHALLENGE", she was promoted to main character status and has made regular appearances since then.

* AbsurdPhobia: Meggy is flat-out ''terrified'' of anime, after the events of "Mario waits for pizza". "Mario Saves Anime" reveals that all Inklings hate anime and Meggy's phobia runs in her [=DNA=].
* TheAce: Strongly established as such in-universe and out of it. Even Mario sees her as this.
* ActionGirl: Naturally, since she comes from the world of ''Splatoon''. [[AvertedTrope Sometimes averted]], depending on the video.
* {{Adorkable}}: Particularly when she's just learning what Christmas is, or how to cook.
* AffirmativeActionGirl: The first new ''female'' character to become a regular.
* AnimationBump: She and some of the other Inklings have very noticeably advanced character movements and animations compared to Mario and other [=SMG4=] staples.
* AntagonistInMourning: More of a hero's version of mourning for her rival. Yes, Desti was a pain in the ass, but when [[spoiler:she was impaled by Sephiroth]], [[BigNo Meggy is understandably horrified]]. Especially considering [[spoiler:Desti had been warming up to Mario and friends up until this point, as well as showing a softer and more heroic side to herself]].
* {{Asexual}}: Agrees that love is dumb and complicated, as shown in "Mario's Valentine Advice".
* AxCrazy: Downplayed compared to some of the other characters, but it's there. Mostly when she's [[TriggerHappy shooting things]].
* BadassAdorable: Cooler and cuter than even the average Inkling.
* BadassInDistress:
** In "Wild, Wild Mario", she gets surprised and captured by Donkey Kong. When Mario causes a distraction, Meggy frees herself by kicking the gorilla [[GroinAttack square in the groin.]]
** Becomes this in [[spoiler: "The Splatfest Incident", where she is kidnapped by a shadowy assailant. We later find out that Francis of the Anime Cartel is responsible.]]
** The Penguin Mom in "Little Penguin Lost" unwittingly kidnaps Meggy, mistaking the human girl for her child.
* BadassNormal: As a human, she's just as capable of an ActionGirl as before despite losing her squid form. Even as an Inkling, she very rarely used her squid form, and there was nothing she could do that a typical Inkling also couldn't do. Regardless, she remains a force to be reckoned with because her athleticism and combat skills are just THAT good.
* BerserkButton: Do ''not'' lie to her or try to con her. Wario found this out the hard way.
** Another is utterly [[EpicFail failing to speak her language]]. Mario received a chair to the face for that. Ultimately [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] in later instances as the most she does is just get visibly annoyed by who is doing it.
** Dissing her skills is another one. Same with her voice.
** Making fun of her small height[[note]]She's 5'2, by the way![[/note]]. [=SMG4=] found that out the hard way.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's a nice person, but if her BerserkButton gets pressed, watch out.
* BigNo: [[spoiler: She lets out an extremely anguished one seconds after Desti is [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impaled from behind]] by Sephiroth.]]
* BreakoutCharacter: She became so popular upon her debut that she quickly became a major character in the series.
* BreakTheBadass: To put it bluntly, Meggy had it rough in the Anime Arc.
** [[spoiler: When she was training her friends for Splatfest in "Meggy's Bootcamp", she was being way too hard on them, letting her insecurities and desire to win get the better of her. She feels so bad about going overboard that she breaks down in tears in front of everyone--the very first time she ''cried genuine tears''. Her friends forgive her and encourage her to keep training them, and her nicer training session was a success--then her rival Desti steals her weapons from her.]]
** [[spoiler: After her weapons were retrieved, she was ready to finally conquer Splatfest. But her plans get interrupted when she gets kidnapped by Francis, who intends to use her and all the other Inklings he's kidnapped to create an army of waifus. This process involves putting her in a machine that would drain her ink, slowly and painfully killing her. Even after she was finally saved from the machine, she was still very weak.]]
** [[spoiler: Worst of all, she had to watch Desti get ''impaled'' in "World War Mario". Meggy's rival had not only gotten closer to Mario and Co., but she also fought tooth and nail to take Francis down and rescue her rival. She was even starting to bond with Meggy too, even believing she will be a champion, only to get murdered for her troubles. In addition, Meggy feels responsible for Desti's death, and at her funeral, breaks down in tears a second time.]]
* BrokenAce: Meggy was initially portrayed as someone who succeeds in almost everything she does. Even her flaws of being [[SuperDrowningSkills unable to swim]] and [[LethalChef cook]] were mostly downplayed (all Inklings cannot swim and her cooking skills weren't helped by Mario being her first teacher). However, [[spoiler: "Meggy's Bootcamp" reveals that despite her natural talent, she still hasn't won a single Splatfest and she's extremely self-conscious of that. She subsequently takes her frustrations out on her friends whenever the time to train for Splatfest arrives, which makes her feel even worse as she fears that she might drive them away for good.]]
** [[spoiler: Made even worse at the end of "Final Hours" during Desti's funeral, where she feels if she'd been better, her rival wouldn't have been killed - shortly after saying this, she breaks down in tears. Even ''a full month'' after the funeral, she still can't get over her grief and tries bottling it all up, [[SanitySlippage which goes as expected]] and reveals her inability to move on from Desti's death.]]
* CantLiveWithThemCantLiveWithoutThem: Her rival Desti drove her crazy every chance she got, but after [[spoiler:her death]], she never stopped thinking about her. The trailer for "Meggy's Destiny" shows that she still looks fondly on their battles together.
* CombatPragmatist: Isn't above {{Groin Attack}}s and {{Sneak Attack}}s -- particularly in "Wild, Wild Mario."
* CompetitionFreak: Especially when it comes to [[VideoGame/{{Splatoon}} Splatfests]], or any kind of shooting competition.
* CoolCar: Drives one shaped like a Splatoon squid.
* CripplingOverspecialization: When in position of being a shooter of any kind with any kind of gun, she is quite powerful. However, when she has to do something else like cooking, vertical platforming with far platforms, stealth or swimming, then her flaws become more prevalent. [[WeaksauceWeakness Although to be fair, her ability to not swim is shared among other inklings.]]
* CrusadingLawyer: Sure, it was just a college exam, but the fact that she not only defended [[SociopathicHero Mario]] of all people, but managed to catch the real culprit shows that you definitely want Meggy on your side. She also managed to defend and save Mario's life from the Chungus tribe.
* DeadpanSnarker: Unlike Mario's other subordinates in "The Mario Mafia," she's completely unafraid of his JackBauerInterrogationTechnique; she just rolls her eyes in boredom and asks if she can go home.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: She and Tari start out as rivals in "The Mario Carnival", but when Tari shows off her ImprobableAimingSkills and destroys Meggy in a shooting contest, Meggy [[{{Squee}} is amazed]] and they instantly become friends.
* DesignatedGirlFight: With [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3 Wendy O'Koopa]] in "The Mario Mafia". Naturally, [[ActionGirl Meggy wins.]]
** Battles against [[GamerChick Tari]] in "The Mario Carnival" in a shooting competition.
* {{Determinator}}: Knock her down, she gets back up again ready to conquer any challenges that come her way. [[spoiler: Desti notes that this trait is why she chose Meggy as her rival in the first place.]]
* TheDragon: Appears to be [[TheDon Don]] Mario's bodyguard and main lieutenant in "The Mario Mafia."
* DreadfulMusician: Bob compares her voice to [[HellIsThatNoise "screeching metal"]]. Then again, it's [[{{Jerkass}} Bob]], so his comment should be taken with a grain of salt.
* DrillSergeantNasty: Turns into this in the aptly titled "Meggy's Bootcamp", putting Mario, Luigi, and Tari through TrainingFromHell during her obsession with winning Splatfest. [[spoiler:She drops it after realizing how awful she is being to her friends, taking on a more supportive role instead... though she seems to have slipped back into the mindset by the end of "There's Something Up With Meggy...".]]
* DrivenToMadness: Taking the internet away so she can't watch [[VideoGame/{{Splatoon}} Splatfests]] anymore led to her, Tari and Saiko [[AllBikersAreHellsAngels forming a gang and attacking anyone that comes near]] in ''Mad Mario''. [[spoiler: More seriously, bottling up her grief over the death of Desti and the dying promise she gave causes her to act completely OutOfCharacter, to the point ''[[TheDitz Mario]]'' recognises she's not acting like herself.]]
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** Though an ActionGirl through and through, she doesn't always resort to violence. In "Mario and the Diss Track", when Mario suggests smashing Bob with a baseball bat for making the particular diss track, Meggy gives him an unimpressed look. Twice.
** Despite her phobia of anime, [[spoiler: she supports overturning the anime ban once she learns that Saiko isn't legally allowed back into the Mushroom Kingdom because of it.]]
** While playing cops and robbers with Meggy and Tari in "A Day in the Life of Everyone", Saiko goes crazy with her weapon, trashing everything in Meggy's apartment. Meggy--who is quite a TriggerHappy GunNut herself--asks Saiko to stop.
* ExcessiveMourning: [[spoiler: Has fallen into this after Desti's passing, to the point where she's still grieving for her rival a full month after the incident and undergoes SanitySlippage trying to keep her emotions bottled up.]]
* {{Fainting}}:
** Does this after [[spoiler: seeing [[HuskyRusskie Heavy Weapons Guy]] dressed as a maid. [[FanDisservice Not that anyone can blame her.]]]]
** Also does it again when she realizes that she turned into a human.
* FakeShemp: At times, she uses Callie and Marie's voice clips for the sake of variety, and those of the Octoling enemies from the first game. As of "Meggy's Bootcamp", Pearl's clips are used as well.
* FatalFlaw:
** Her overeagerness has led her to take out a target with [[LeeroyJenkins brute force and]] [[MoreDakka overwhelming firepower]]. Of course, now she's just revealed herself to the enemies... This bites her in "Final Fantasy Mario" when it leads to the alarms being set off annd alerting the entire base to her, Mario and [=SMG4=]'s presence.
** Her competitive spirit often causes her to become overzealous when it comes to training, which usually leads to trouble whenever she ropes her friends into joining her. Meggy often pushes her teammates way too hard and is extremely harsh when they fail to meet her personal high standards. [[spoiler:"Meggy's Bootcamp" reveals that this overly competitive desire stems from her self-esteem being damaged by her failures in the Splatfests, and her guilt over treating her friends like crap only makes her feel worse.]]
** She keeps her real emotions hidden behind a confident mask, bottling all of them up. [[spoiler: When her suppressed emotions become too much to handle she lashes out at anyone nearby, which only makes her undergo HeroicSelfDepreciation, which she [[ViciousCycle tries to hide by bottling her emotions up...]] "Meggy's Bootcamp" and "There's Something Up With Meggy..." show the effects of this, with Meggy having a HeelRealisation in both episodes before running away and when confronted, [[HeroicBSOD breaking down in tears or shutting down entirely]].]]
* FireForgedFriends: She starts out wanting nothing to do with Mario, only giving the bumbling plumber the time of day because he accidentally incapacitated [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Heavy]] [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Squid]], and she needed a fourth team member. When Mario proves to be much more [[LetsGetDangerous dependable]] and [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold kind]] than he initially seemed, they became friends.
* ForgotAboutHisPowers: Even for an Inkling, Meggy is rarely, if ever, seen in her squid form or shooting ink.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler:Mixed with a dash of irony, Meggy's transformation into a human was hinted throughout the Anime Arc.]]
** [[spoiler:Out of all the characters who supports the un-banning of all anime, she was one of the first to volunteer after learning of Saiko's banishment. Keep in mind that she's afraid of ''anime''...]]
** [[spoiler: Meta-wise, the ''3 Million Subscriber SSENMODNAR''[[note]]which was uploaded in the middle of the Anime Arc's second part[[/note]] features a skit where every character became animesque-styled, with Meggy being the horrified one.]]
** [[spoiler: In ''Meggy's Bootcamp'', Meggy claimed to have "losing sight of herself". At the end of ''Final Hours'', she literally becoming a different species as a result of the Arc.]]
* GirlsWithGuns: Often seen wielding a firearm as her WeaponOfChoice - then again, she is from ''Splatoon''.
* GogglesDoNothing: She's always wearing a pair of goggles, but they don't really do anything useful.
* GracefulLoser: Even though she takes competition ''very'' seriously and is often a SoreLoser, there ''are'' times where she takes losing in stride, as we've seen in "The Xmas Discovery" and "The Mario Carnival".
* GunNut: To say she goes a little gun-crazy would be an understatement.
* HiddenDepths:
** "Mario University" reveals that her dream goal is to become a lawyer, which she's shown to be quite skilled at when she has to defend Mario in court as part of a college exam.
** Beneath the mask of a cheerful, confident and competitive young girl [[spoiler: is an insecure person who pushes herself to ridiculous lengths in order to prove her own self-worth, yet is terrified of losing sight of everything and everyone she holds dear.]]
* HeroicBSOD:
** Enters one whenever the topic of anime is brought up. Probably because she's reminded of [[CallBack being forced to watch anime]] in "Mario waits for pizza".
** [[spoiler: After realizing what a jerk she was being to her friends in "Meggy's Bootcamp", she sulks away to be by herself, and has a complete emotional breakdown when Mario gets her to open up about her fear of driving her friends away in her obsession to win the Splatfest. Thanks to her friends' support, she comes out of it.]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: She pushes Mario out of the way of an exploding T-pose mushroom given by Waluigi in ''The Mario Convention''. She was also willing to sacrifice her ink to save her friends in "Final Hours".]]
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: [[spoiler: Views herself as a disappointment after spending two years in a row without winning a single Splatfest despite all her hard training, and feels undeserving of her friends for taking her frustrations out on them during training. Goes through this again during Desti's funeral.]]
* HonorBeforeReason: In ''The Mario Showdown'', despite having the upper hand outnumbering and outgunning Desti's gang, Meggy accepts an all or nothing gamble via a one on one duel against her rival. [[spoiler: This is immediately subverted when Meggy cheats.]]
* HugeSchoolgirl: Meggy is quite tall for a typical teenage Inkling. Taller than Mario, even.
* HumanityEnsues: After the events of the Anime Arc, [[spoiler: she's completely drained of her ink at ''???%'' within Francis's Ink Zuccer 2000]], which (somehow) turns her into a human.
* ImplausibleDeniability: Prone to this whenever [[NiceJobBreakingItHero she messes up big time.]]
* InsistentTerminology: She and Saiko didn't steal that fire truck, they ''borrowed'' it.
* {{Irony}}: Despite being weak to water, her paint gun apparently has a water setting on it.
** [[spoiler:For a character who's terrified of anime, Meggy became what she's afraid of: an ''anime'' human girl!]]
* JerkassRealization:
** In "If Mario Was In... Splatoon 2", Meggy pushes Mario extra hard in her determination to win the Splatfest, and the two end up getting into a fight. When Mario runs off, Meggy seems to realize she was too hard on him later though and decides to loosen up.
** Throughout the Anime Arc, Meggy gets increasingly frustrated at her friends for not taking their Splatfest training seriously. It all culminates in "Meggy's Bootcamp", where she turns into a DrillSergeantNasty and puts Mario, Luigi, and Tari through a TrainingFromHell. [[spoiler: Halfway through, [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone she realizes she's gone too far]] and is driven into a HeroicBSOD, reasoning that there's no point in winning if she loses her friends.]]
* LadyLooksLikeADude: Her human form, according to Mario.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Her human form was originally part of a shocking twist at the end of the Anime Arc. As part of a channel revamp, [=SMG4=] updated the banner in July 2019, prominently featuring it.
* LeeroyJenkins: Has a habit of rushing into battles at times. As "Final Fantasy Mario" shows, this can get the rest of the crew in quite a pickle.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Music from ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'' is used in a lot of her scenes, though "Splattack!" deserves special mention.
* LethalChef: Not very good at cooking. Her first attempt created... ''[[EldritchAbomination something]]'', and her second doesn't go much better, setting the kitchen (and eventually, ''the entire mansion'') on fire. The fact that Mario, a LethalChef himself, was the ''first'' person to introduce her to cooking doesn't help.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: To Mario. [[spoiler: Made more clear in the Anime Arc; as Mario takes her (seeming) HeroicSacrifice the hardest, and later during the funeral scene reassures her that he'll always have Meggy's back, no matter what.]]
* MoralityPet: Bit of a stretch, but Mario isn't nearly as much of a jerk around Meggy as he is with the other characters, and even when he does get into fights with her, it's mostly just friendly competition.
* MoreDakka: A '''huge''' fan of using this. To be fair, it works most of the time.
* AMotherToHerMen: What she aims to be. Sure, she can go overboard with her training for Splatfests, but make no mistake, she cares about her team.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler: She has this reaction in "Meggy's Bootcamp" after realizing that her obsession with winning Splatfest after two consecutive losses has turned her into a complete {{Jerkass}} towards her friends, resulting in her having an emotional breakdown complete with tears: the first time she's outright ''cried'' besides simply shedding a tear.]]
* NiceGirl: One of the friendliest characters in the series. She even sticks up for Mario in "New Year, New Mario" when Mario says that he wants to lose weight for his New Year's Resolution. That said, [[BewareTheNiceOnes she does have her breaking points]].
* NiceHat: Wears a salmon-colored beanie with headphones and a pair of goggles.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the "In Between" part of a trio with Tari and Saiko. She's more often than not a NiceGirl, but her TriggerHappy GunNut tendencies and competitive streak means she's not a pushover in the same way that [[ShrinkingViolet Tari]] is.
* TheNicknamer: She calls Mario "Red".
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: A variation in that it applies to how she's ''animated'': while everyone else's ragdolls are contorted and positioned to look as ridiculous as possible, Meggy is carefully animated using Henry's Animation Tool, resulting in unusually smooth, flowing animation. Even her basic look is a bit more detailed than the Inkling Girl from Splatoon. That said, [[ArtShift sometimes she's animated in [=GMod=] instead.]] Taken UpToEleven after she becomes a human girl.
* OddFriendship: With Mario and friends.
* OnlySaneWoman: If Sonic isn't around, she's usually serving this role.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** She agrees to take Boopkins to a "sexy maid" cafe, despite [[AbsurdPhobia her phobia of anime]], just to try and break him out of his HeroicBSOD in "The Melancholy of Fishy Boopkins".
** She is normally a NiceGirl, but grabs the JerkassBall hard whenever a Splatfest is around the corner, with her obsession with winning becoming all that matters. This leads her to get into unexpectedly harsh fights with her friends for failing to keep up the pace, first in "If Mario Was in... Splatoon 2", and again in "Meggy's Bootcamp". [[spoiler: In the latter episode, she fully acknowledges that her bad attitude has become too big of an issue to ignore, and she becomes much more relaxed and friendly again.]]
** [[spoiler: "There's Something Up With Meggy" goes overboard with this, from Meggy {{Squee}}ing over Tari's duck and ''asking to buy it'', being entirely focused on building a treehouse instead of training and attacking Mario and Luigi when they try and talk with her. Luigi even lampshades the latter two.]]
* OutOfFocus: She, ''of all characters'', hasn't appeared much in the 2020 season, with most of her appearances after ''Meggy's Destiny'' being short cameos, and the role of the most prominent female character being given to Tari.
* PhoneaholicTeenager: Always carries a phone shaped like [[Videogame/{{Splatoon}} an Inkling's squid form]], and is often seen texting on it.
* TheRival: [[NiceGuy Shroomy]] of all people sees her as this as shown in "Mario School Club" due to him disapproving of her hunting skills.
* SeriousBusiness: [[VideoGame/{{Splatoon}} Splatfests]]. She is ''obsessed'' with training for them. This gets deconstructed when she gets into a huge fight with Mario in "If Mario Was in... Splatoon 2" for not taking it as seriously as her, and turns into a DrillSergeantNasty in "Meggy's Bootcamp" to whip her friends into shape. [[spoiler: She finally drops this behavior when she realizes she's taking her frustrations towards her losing streak out on her friends.]]
* SoreLoser: True to ''Splatoon'', she tends to take losing unwell. Averted in "The Mario Carnival", where it leads to DefeatMeansFriendship with Tari.
* {{Squee}}: Over [[GamerChick Ta]][[{{Cyborg}} ri]]'s shooting skills, right after Tari destroys her in a shooting competition.
* SuperDrowningSkills: Being an Inkling, she cannot swim, which she re-discovered in "Stupid Mario Sports Mix" after some time of [[ForgotAboutHisPowers seemingly forgetting]] she was even an Inkling. She can only swim after Bowser offers her a pool float... which she's not happy about in the slightest.
** ''The Minecraft Plague'' demonstrates that this no longer applies after turning human, and she can now swim just fine.
* TearsOfRemorse: [[spoiler:Ink-like tears, at that, after she yells at her friends in "Meggy's Bootcamp". Besides shedding tears at some points, this is the first time she's all-out cried, making this SeriousBusiness.]]
* TechnicolorEyes: They were cyan in her debut, then changed to pink/purple in subsequent appearances. They were originally orange in [[Videogame/{{Splatoon}} the very game she's from]].
* ThrowTheDogABone: [[spoiler:She ''finally'' gets to win Splatfest after countless losses in "Meggy's Destiny"--the last-ever Splatfest, even.]]
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Tomboy to Tari's Girly Girl.
* TriggerHappy: Very much so.
* VomitIndiscretionShot: When she watches "My Gym Teacher's a Sexy Rhinoceros" in "Mario School Club".
* WeaponOfChoice: She uses the Splattershot, though she has been seen to use a Roller too. "Stupid Mario Sports Mix" shows she's also skilled with archery.
* YouthfulFreckles: She gets these after turning into a human.

->'''Voiced by:''' Kevin

A [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3 Spike]] who first appears[[note]]barring his brief [[EarlyBirdCameo cameo]]s in "The Evilness of Eggman(?)", "Casino, Cards, and Chaos", and "An Overdose of Dr. Mario"[[/note]] in the "Seaside Stupidity" two-parter. After his debut, he made a few more appearances before finally graduating to main character status.

* {{Adorkable}}: He's shy, geeky, and very cute.
* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: [[spoiler: He is unceremoniously caught and infected by [[ArcVillain Waluigi]] in ''Fishy Boopkins Plays [=VRChat=]'']].
* BadassAdorable: Fishy Boopkins is from an enemy race that looks quite cuddly and Boopkins himself is quite friendly. [[WeakButSkilled While he's not the strongest fighter, he can be pretty skilled with weaponry and can be crafty when the time calls for it.]] And if that doesn't work, [[PapaWolf he can always just call on his dad..]]

This drives poor Boopkins to tears.]]
* ButtMonkey: Slips into this role as time goes on, taking the brunt of insults and abuse from most of the cast.
* CharacterisationMarchesOn: His characterization in his debut episode, "Seaside Stupidity" is slightly different from his later appearances; his voice is lower pitched, he wasn't an {{Otaku}} yet, and he possessed two abilities that haven't been seen since: the ability to [[SuperNotDrowningSkills make people breathe underwater]], and the ability to sing while in pain.
* CheerfulChild: He's a young child, and very optimistic despite [[ButtMonkey everything happening to him]].
* ComplexityAddiction: Tries unnecessary (and [[EpicFail ineffective]]) stealth against a random {{Mook}} in the FinalBattle of "Wild, Wild Mario." By contrast, Bob [[MundaneSolution just arrows the guy in the face and says, "Close enough."]]
* CuteButCacophonic: His singing is so bad, it causes [[EarthShatteringKaboom the Earth to explode!]] [[spoiler: The threat of being ForcedToWatch him play Roblox for ten hours in ''The Mario Mafia'' causes Bob (a traitor at the time) to confess everything.]]
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Doki Doki Mario Club" is this for Fishy Boopkins. Not only does it star him but it’s surprisingly a character study on how lonely he is and how it affects him, which in most other episodes is PlayedForLaughs. "Mario And... The Well" is this as [[{{Pun}} well]].
* DirtyCoward: During "Mario Preschool", the [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Shipping Police]] show up to try and arrest him, and [[NotSoDifferent in a move not out of place from]] [[ItsAllAboutMe Bob]], he frames Meggy for the picture he drew of him and Hatsune Miku leaving her to be arrested by the Shipping Police. Granted, [[RewardedAsATraitorDeserves Fishy Boopkins]] [[LaserGuidedKarma does end up getting arrested too,]] [[NeverMyFault but thinks it's because they didn't like his painting.]]
* EarlyBirdCameo: He makes his first actual appearance in "Sonic the derphog: The Evilness of Eggman(?)" in a ReactionShot with various other characters.
* EarthShatteringKaboom: Causes one with his horrible singing.
* EatDirtCheap: He loves eating rocks - he ate at least ''354'' of them during his geology class in "Mario University". It's gotten to the point where he actually can't swim due to eating so many.
-->'''Boopkins:''' I can't seem to float anymore... oh, maybe I should go on a diet.
* FatalFlaw: [[ThePollyanna His naive, friendly nature]]. Fishy Boopkins is one of the few main characters who is unambiguously nice. It's his biggest strength, as he manages to befriend characters that the others would normally never have a chance of doing so (he proves instrumental in recruiting Axol), but it's also his biggest weakness as he has a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter, which leads to him [[UnwittingPawn being manipulated]] by people (Bob), keeping company that most people would find [[PoisonousFriend unsavory]] (Saiko, Bob) or straight up [[TheFarmerAndTheViper repaying his kindness with evil acts]] ([[spoiler: Waluigi]], [[spoiler:the Anime Cartel]], Bob). For better or worse, it's his most prominent character trait aside for his love for anime.
* {{Flanderization}}: As of "High School Mario" he became an anime-obsessed weaboo and nothing else.
* {{Foil}}: To Bob. Both are based on enemy mooks, both are among the few characters that use voice acting (even if Bob's voice is text-to-speech.) Both are TheFriendNobodyLikes from the rest of the cast and are shown to be losers. But the differences are that Fishy Boopkins is a WideEyedIdealist, who’s humble, doesn’t really let the abuse get to him and is a nice person, while Bob is cynical, [[SmallNameBigEgo has a huge ego]], cares deeply what other people think of him and is a {{Jerkass}}.
* ForgotAboutHisPowers: In his debut appearance, Fishy Boopkins had magical powers including the power to summon other sea creatures, swallow large amounts of objects a la VideoGame/PacMan, and allow humans and Toads to breathe underwater. After that two-parter, Boopkins isn't shown to have any powers.
* {{Hermaphrodite}}: [[RuleOfFunny Possibly]]. After getting blasted out of the school in "High School Mario", he mutters "[[GroinAttack My nuts.]]", despite a line in "Stupid Mario Kart" stating he had a uterus.
* HeroicBSOD: Falls into one after [[spoiler: the events of "The Mario Concert". It takes [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Meggy taking him to a "sexy maid" cafe]] to snap him out of it. Even that is a temporary solution, and it carries over to the next video.]]
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Due to his desire to be friends with everyone, Boopkins is prone to this.
** Boopkins considers Bob to be his best friend, and is willing to help him despite all the times Bob has either a)been the cause of his own misfortune, b) mistreated him and c) betrayed his trust. It comes back to bite him ''hard'' in ''The Mario Concert'' when Bob [[spoiler: reveals that he never considered Boopkins his friend and that he was the one that pushed Boopkins down the well, all so he could use Boopkins' rescue as a publicity stunt to further his rap career. To be fair to Boopkins on this point, he does wise up afterwards and Bob has to really prove to him that he's changed before they're friends again.]]
** In ''Doki Doki Mario Club'' he's ignorant at first to Saiko's true nature and even after seeing her at her worst he's very hesitant about breaking off his relationship with her until Toad and Toadette provide a demonstration of what will happen if he doesn't.
** In ''Mario and the T-Pose Virus'', [[spoiler: he greets his zombified friends and asks if they want to play Yu-Gi-Oh cards, to which they respond by painfully mobbing him and infecting him.]]
* KidHasAPoint:
** When [[spoiler:Meggy gets kidnapped]] in "The Splatfest Incident" and Axol is the prime suspect, Boopkins has a good reason to vouch for Axol's innocence. Not only does he have a friendly--if overdramatic--personality, but he willfully helped Mario and Co. get anime unbanned while demanding ''nothing'' in return. [[spoiler:As luck would have it, Boopkins was right.]]
** From the same episode, he was the first one to stop the CivilWar from progressing any further when they could be [[spoiler:saving Meggy]].
* MakeMeWannaShout: When he sings, it destroys planets. Also, his superpower in "The Super Dudes" is releasing a shockwave when shouting.
* NiceGuy: Sure, [[BookDumb he's not the brightest individual]] [[TheFriendNobodyLikes and is treated just as badly as Bob]], but he's one of the kinder members of the cast and is a friend that has your back (as evident in "High School Mario").
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler: Boopkins ''explicitly'' explaining to the Anime Cartel how Axol's ink weaver works causes problems for the rest of the arc, now that they know how to use it]].
* OddFriendship: With Bob and Waluigi.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Fishy Boopkins ''loves'' his TopWife body pillow. So when he leaves it behind while fleeing from [[ClingyJealousGirl Saiko]], it shows how scared he is of her.
** In the same vein, he's a ''massive'' {{Otaku}}. So when [[spoiler: he's too sad to watch anime because of what Bob did, you know he's taking it hard.]]
** He's best friends with Bob, going so far as to save him during "The Mario Purge" despite everyone else's objections, and thinks the world of him [[spoiler: prior to "The Mario Concert". At the end of "Mario and The Diss Track", after [[ArcVillain Bob]] lost his fame and fortune and asks to enter the cafe, Boopkins simply shuts the door on him. Just goes to show how badly Bob's betrayal affected him. It takes Bob a near-death experience and announcing his retirement to fix their friendship.]]
* {{Otaku}}: Judging by the fact that his ''wife'' is a Hatsune Miku body pillow, he's probably one of these.
** He later claims to have six wives. All of them are anime body pillows.
** In "Doki Doki Mario Club", Fishy has just shy of ''five and a half million anime body pillows''.
--> '''Fishy Boopkins:''' Hmm, let's see... 1, 2, 3...\\
''([[UpToEleven starts dumping an avalanche of body pillows from his cabinet]])''\\
'''Fishy Boopkins:''' 15, 97, about 5,372,227!
** This is the main reason why he brought [[BitchInSheepsClothing Saiko Bichitaru]] to life via magic, to have an anime girlfriend.
* PapaWolf: He has one that is a Cthuluhumanoid.
* RousingSpeech: Gives one to Luigi in "High School Mario".
* SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: In and out of universe! "Mario and the Anime Challenge" has him speak in fluent Japanese twice - the first is a ''very'' long string of Japanese that (in the [=SMG4=] universe) translates to "how was your day?" The second is after Tari gives him the win in said challenge - he says "Arigatō, Tari-chan"[[labelnote:Translation]]"Thanks, Tari" - the ''chan''-suffix is an honorific[[/labelnote]].
* ThrowTheDogABone: [[CharacterizationMarchesOn Originally]], Fishy Boopkins was a character [[FriendlessBackground who had no friends]] [[TheFriendNobodyLikes and was considered an annoyance by everyone else.]] Cut to recent videos however, and he has quite a number of friends, including the likes of [[LovableCoward Luigi]], [[SmallNameBigEgo Bob]] and [[ActionGirl Meggy.]] Even characters that don't like Fishy Boopkins such as [[AuthorAvatar SMG4]] and [[{{Jerkass}} Mario]] have been a lot less hostile towards him.
* ThoseTwoGuys: He and Bob are best friends. [[spoiler: That friendship temporarily ended, but they make up just in time for Christmas.]]
* TokenHeroicOrc: Boopkins is a friendly member of an enemy race (more specifically the Spikes) in the ''Mario'' series.
* TopWife: He has many waifus, but the one he seems to mention and pair himself with the most often is Hatsune Miku.
* TooDumbToLive: One of the dumbest characters in the series by far, perhaps just as dumb as Mario or even dumber.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Boopkins explicitly explaining to the Anime Cartel how Axol's pen works [[spoiler: gives them the idea to kidnap almost every Inkling in Inkopolis, as well as Axol himself, so Francis can have all the waifus he wants]].

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bob_9.PNG]]
[[caption-width-right:350:"Ow! My ovaries!"]]
A sewer wizard that uses a Garo model from ''Videogame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask''. Mario and Luigi first meet him in "Can Ganondorf Come Out to Play?" He's obsessed with fame, money and getting the most screentime in his appearances. He speaks in the "[=WillFromAfar=]" text to speech voice from Acapella. Despite his humorous ButtMonkey status, Bob has proven he can be a downright repulsive, self-admitted bastard if he isn't given the attention he wants.

* AmbiguousGender: Despite having a male voice, pain often results in this quote...
--> '''Bob''': Ow my ovaries!
* AttentionWhore: He's constantly doing annoying things to get attention, such as refusing to let Mario, [=SMG4=] and Toad into DIDNEY WORL unless [=SMG4=] makes him the main character of the videos, and interrupting a rap battle between Mario and [=SMG4=] to shill his social media accounts. This is taken UpTo11 after his rap career takes off.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Manages to take out ''all but one of the entire [[MultiMookMelee Fighting Polygon Team]]'' with almost no effort on his part in ''The Smash 5 Trials''.
* BigDamnHeroes: When Mario and Shroomy get surrounded by the Eagle Scouts in "[=SMG4: Mario The Boy Scout=]", he pops out of nowhere to craft a shield from a pile of wood and use it to deflect the Eagles' attacks.
* BladeSpam: In "[=SMG4=]: Mario The Boy Scout", this is how Bob carves stuff out of wood. [[MundaneUtility And how he does haircuts]], much to Mario and [=SMG4=]'s terror.
--> '''Bob''': Check this ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' shit out
* BreakingSpeech: [[spoiler:Delivers one to Fishy Boopkins, in which he reveals that he faked his friendship with Boopkins, intentionally pushing him into the well in order to "play hero" and boost his [=SoundCloud=]., then organising the events of "Mario and the Bob Mansion", ''all to boost his popularity''. After saying this to Boopkin's face, he ''then'' [[KickTheDog calls Boopkins a pushover and abandons him in the alleyway]].]]
* BullyingADragon: His attempt at telling a joke to Gobbles the Gargoyle in "MARIO'S CHALLENGE" amounts to calling him "a giant stone douchebag." Naturally, Bob gets squished.
--> '''Bob''': Laughing my ass off that was hilarious.
** [[spoiler: "Mario and The Diss Track" has him make the titular diss track about most of the characters. They team up and get revenge, the end result sending Bob back where he started, without fame.]]
* CardCarryingVillain: [[spoiler: After his BreakingSpeech to Boopkins about admitting he had engineered the recent videos to garner sympathy (''Mario and the Well'' and ''Mario and the Bob Mansion'') for him in order to finally gain fame and recognition for his rap career (which Boopkins unwittingly ruined), he flat out admits he's a repugnant asshole. He justifies it though by proclaiming that "it's either be an asshole or a pushover, a Bob or Boopkins", showing that he believes one has to be a despicable individual in order to get by in life. However, following ''Mario and the Diss Track'', after being called out for his actions in a song, and a near death experience, Bob sheds this, pulling a HeelFaceTurn]].
* TheChewToy: Most of his screen time consists of him being abused or ignored by everyone else. [[KickTheSonOfABitch Not that it isn't at all unwarranted]].
* ColdHam: Despite his SyntheticVoiceActor, his dialogue still manages to [[ChewingTheScenery Chew the Scenery]].
* ConMan: Tried to sell rocks as [[BlatantLies a cure for broken legs]] and runs a rigged carnival, among other things.
* CovertPervert: Peeks on women in the shower [[LaserGuidedKarma (though it turns out to be Tinky Winky)]] and likes watching... [[NotSafeForWork mature anime]]. Oh, and [[TheInternetIsForPorn watches porn on the internet.]]
--> '''Bob''': Bring on the 2-dimensional boobies!
* DirtyCoward: In ''Mario and the T-Pose Virus'', he chooses to flee from the T-Pose Zombie horde and leaves Mario and Luigi to their mercy, going so far as to barricade the door to the roof, which leads to Luigi being infected; Bob [[LaserGuidedKarma immediately pays for his selfishness and cowardice]] when a [[BigBrotherInstinct rip-roaringly pissed Mario]] proceeds to literally kick him off of the roof.
* DreadfulMusician: In his earliest appearances, his rapping was ''awful'', even making [[YourHeadAsplode people's heads explode]]. Later episodes [[AvertedTrope avert]] this to an extent: he even has his own rapping career [[spoiler:(albeit one made on [[FalseFriend lies]] and [[KickTheDog dog-kicking]]). He decides to retire his rap career in "[=SMG4=] Christmas 2018"]].
* EngineeredHeroics: ''The Mario Concert'' reveals that [[spoiler:his rescuing Boopkins from the well was this as a plow to gain popularity; in fact, Bob was the one who pushed Fishy down the well in the first place.]]
* FatalFlaw: [[GloryHound His desire for fame.]] Bob desperately craves approval and attention from others, and will do anything to get it, even if it means doing morally dubious actions like betraying his friends or [[spoiler: engineering events so he can look good]]. Even when he ''does'' get recognition, his unquenchable thirst for more fame usually leads to him [[LaserGuidedKarma ruining whatever good he has going for him in the first place]].
* FireForgedFriends: With [[PsychopathicManchild Swagmaster69696969696]] during World War Mario, this is solidified in Final Hours where Bob and the guards [[spoiler: save his friends from an army of False Sephiroths.]]
* {{Foil}}: To Fishy Boopkins. Both are based on enemy mooks, both are among the few characters that use voice acting (even if Bob's voice is text-to-speech). Both are TheFriendNobodyLikes from the rest the cast and are shown to be losers. But the differences is Bob is cynical, [[SmallNameBigEgo has a huge ego,]] cares deeply what other people think of him, [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder isn't afraid to betray them at the drop of a hat]], and is a {{Jerkass}}, while Fishy Boopkins is a WideEyedIdealist who’s humble, doesn’t really let the abuse get to him, [[UndyingLoyalty is fiercely loyal to the friends he does have]], and is a nice person.
* ForWantOfANail / UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: The ''entire Anime Arc'' started all because Bob destroyed Peach's castle in an anime-influenced stunt.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Well OK, "friend" might be a stretch, but he has become a member of the main cast as of late. Most of the cast can't seem to stand him (except possibly [[NiceGirl Meggy]], [[GamerChick Tari]] and [[TokenHeroicOrc Fishy Boopkins]].)
* GoodFeelsGood: After rescuing Boopkins from a well, he comments on how good it feels to be liked.
* HeelRealization: It takes a near-death experience, but [[spoiler:Bob realises friends are the most important thing to him, and decides to retire his rap career and make up with the rest of the cast.]]
* {{Hermaphrodite}}: Constantly claims to have ovaries.
* HiddenDepths: Bob is a complete {{Jerkass}}, but it's implied he has some respect for Creator/SatoruIwata. In "The Splatfest Incident", we see a picture of Iwata inside Bob's locker.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Despite Bob wanting to have friends and fame, [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder he sure doesn't mind betraying people who actually bother to let him into their group]] ("Mario Mafia") [[UngratefulBastard or even people he's teaming up with and actually bothering to help him]] ("Mario Battle Royale"). [[spoiler:This bites him in the ass come "Mario and The Diss Track", when Saiko, having been told [[FalseFriend what]] [[BreakingSpeech Bob]] [[KickTheDog did]] and [[HeroicBSOD how Boopkins was affected]], makes a popular song about it alongside the others. Bob essentially lost his fame because of his backstabbing tendencies.]]
* IncrediblyLamePun: His stand-up jokes from ''[=DerpTV=]: Mushroom Kingdom's Got Talent'', which causes [=SMG4=] to attempt to ''smother'' him.
* IHaveYourWife: In "Who Let the Chomp Out Again?", he forces Fishy Boopkins to do increasingly dangerous pet show stunts by threatening to kill his "wife" (a Hatsune Miku body pillow) if he refuses.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Eeeeeeeyup. It's always about Bob and never about anyone else.
* {{Jerkass}}: While some of the cast do treat him a bit too harshly, it's not exactly hard to see why. Bob has proven time and time again that he has a massive ego and does some rather questionable things in order to get famous.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: That said, he ''has'' done some heroic things such as rescue Fishy Boopkins from a well instead of leaving him there. He also plays a major role in [[spoiler: defeating Francis.]]
** JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: [[spoiler: However, he noted he was the one who kicked Boopkins into the well in the first place, making his "rescue" part of an elaborate attempt to gain popularity.]]
* JerkassHasAPoint: Throughout "The Mario Concert", Bob was constantly pushing Fishy Boopkins away, [[spoiler:his [[BreakingSpeech infamous crushing speech]] [[KickTheDog is as nasty as such a speech can get]]]], and him admitting that [[spoiler:[[EngineeredHeroics he orchestrated the events]] [[WoundedGazelleGambit of the last two videos]]]] doesn't help either. However, [[spoiler:he was right in that Boopkins was technically trespassing on a gig that Bob [[UnwantedAssistance didn't need his help on, and that he was]] ''[[UnwatedAssistance explicitly]]'' [[UnwantedAssistance told not to interfere, yet did so anyway]]]].
* KickTheDog: Has done this plenty of times, all to feed his ego. [[spoiler:He delivers an especially nasty one to Fishy Boopkins in "The Mario Concert", which sends Fishy into a HeroicBSOD.]]
* LaserGuidedKarma: When he's being a {{Jerkass}}, he's on the receiving end. He receives an ''especially'' large dose of this in "Mario and The Diss Track" [[spoiler:when after [[KickTheDog berating]] and [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder back-stabbing]] Boopkins in order to gain fame, he loses it when Saiko and the rest of the main cast, who Bob dissed for no reason [[ForTheEvulz other than he could]], team up and sing a ''epic'' song about what Bob has done and how despicable he is. Bob subsequently loses his fortune, fans and friends, and the episode ends with Boopkins [[IronicEcho shutting the door on him.]]]]
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k94xga2_wo0 This]] [[Music/SiIvaGunner high quality rip]] of the potion shop theme from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime''.
* TheMillstone: Even when he's not actively trying to screw over his teammates via [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder double-crossing]], the mere fact that Bob is on your team is usually a poor bet for success due to his stupidity and self-centeredness.
* MotiveRant: Goes into a '''massive''' one crossed with BreakingSpeech [[spoiler: when his plan to get famous through his rap career is ruined.]]
* TheNicknamer: Has called [=SMG4=] "Super Meme Generator 4" and "Smushy Mario Goopy 4".
* {{Ninja}}: Well no duh, he is a [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask Garo]]. That, and well, he has [[AwesomeButImpractical blade hands.]] Plus, when the episode calls for it, Bob can be a surprisingly effective fighter.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler:Bob out-and-out ''weaponised'' the trope in order to get famous. All of his seemingly stupid decisions in "Mario and the Bob Mansion" (replacing fire extinguishers with flamethrowers, labelling gasoline as "Bob Juice", sending [[LethalChef Meggy]] to cook ''knowing full well how bad she was'') were part of a plan to create a sob story to ''boost his popularity''.]]
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Not a full-blown villain, but he does diss both Meggy and Tari for being female, and with the latter he proclaimed that he'll win their game. [[LaserGuidedKarma He loses.]] He disses them ''again'' in "Mario and The Diss Track" via the titular track.
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: In "The Mario Mafia", he tells Bowser where Mario's base is, since they were having a feud at the time. [[LaserGuidedKarma Not only does he get cheated out of his money]], Mario [[ForcedToWatch forces him to watch]] [[ColdBloodedTorture Fishy Boopkins playing Roblox]] ''[[ColdBloodedTorture for ten hours.]]'' Happens again in "Mario Battle Royale", after kicking Fishy Boopkins off a cliff. [[LaserGuidedKarma He runs into Toad's]] [[{{Kaiju}} Kaiju-sized robot]] [[LaserGuidedKarma and gets killed.]]
** [[RuleOfThree And yet again]] in "Mario and the T-Pose Virus". [[{{Jerkass}} His laziness and refusal to let Mario and Luigi onto the roof]] led Luigi to be infected by the eponymous virus. Mario, in an out-of-character TranquilFury, then kicks Bob off the roof.
* SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids:
--> '''Bob''': You're either an [[{{Jerkass}} asshole]] or a [[ButtMonkey pushover.]] [[spoiler:A Bob or a Boopkins, and I'm sure as hell not going to be a Boopkins.]]
* SirSwearsALot: He has quite the potty mouth, cursing more than any other recurring character.
* SoftSpokenSadist: Sometimes goes into this, which is rather jarring compared to [[ColdHam his usual way of speaking.]]
--> '''Bob''': ''[[SoftSpokenSadist In my world, mercy doesn't exist.]]''
* SyntheticVoiceActor: He's voiced by Voiceforge's "Will From Afar", who some viewers might recognize as the announcer for the Watergate map in ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''.
* TankGoodness: Pilots a ''tank'' alongside Swagmaster when facing an army of Sephiroths.
* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: He just can't let go of the b-word.
* ThoseTwoGuys: He and Fishy Boopkins are best friends. [[spoiler:As of the end of "The Mario Concert", this is ''definitely'' [[AvertedTrope averted]].]]
** [[spoiler: Now double averted, as of ‘The Most Important Thing’, where he makes up with Boopkins and they become friends again.]]
* ThrowTheDogABone: Since his first appearance, he's often treated as TheFriendNobodyLikes and TheThingThatWouldNotLeave. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Also, anything he makes is trashy and unpopular]]. After the events of ''Mario And... The Well'' when he saved Fishy Boopkins from the titular well, his good deed gets rewarded; his [=SoundCloud=] receives dozens of followers and he has enough money to buy a mansion.
* TokenHeroicOrc: Like Fishy Boopkins, he is a member of an enemy race from ''Zelda'' known as the [[{{Ninja}} Garo.]] [[{{Jerkass}} Though the "heroic" bit isn't entirely accurate.]]
* TookALevelInJerkass: Becomes more hostile and aggressive in his attempts to become friends with everyone. [[spoiler: It gets to the point where he ''kicks Boopkins down a well'' so he can become famous.]]
* TookALevelInKindness: After his HeelRealization, he's been progressively cast in a more heroic manner and tends to make himself more useful whenever he has screentime. He also seems to get along better with the other main characters, and while his insults and AttentionWhore tendencies are still there, they've been [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold dialed back to a more tolerable level]].
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler: His Kamehameha destroys half of Peach's castle, and his shifting of blame ("Um, uh...Goku did it!") is the first of a few isolated incidents that leads to Peach banning anime in the Mushroom Kingdom, kickstarting the Anime Arc.]]
* VocalEvolution: Watch his earlier videos and you'll find that he speaks slower than he does nowadays.

* AlphaBitch: It's literally in the name. She tones down after softening up to the whole group, but she can still be pretty mean.
* AmicableExes: Subverted at first; she didn't take being dumped by Fishy Boopkins very well. Played straight after her HeelFaceTurn - she's still friends with him as said in ''Mario and the Bob Mansion''. [[spoiler: It even proves catalyst to Bob's downfall during his Rapper Arc, as Luigi revealing that Bob drove Boopkins into a HeroicBSOD causes Saiko to turn on him.]]
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Subverted, as she has brightly shaded pink-and-purple hair in girlish pigtails, but when not fighting or causing destruction, acts very calm and aloof.
* AntiHero: Of the Unscrupulous variety after her HeelFaceTurn. She's on the side of Mario and friends and she is fiercely loyal to them, but she's quite willing to maim anyone that pisses her off regardless of them being good or evil. And she has done questionable things, such as stealing a fire truck and using someone as a motorcycle ramp, to help her friends out.
* AttentionWhore: She really wants the spotlight. Probably why she [[FaceHeelTurn sides with Bob]] at the start of "Mario and The Diss Track"; she just wants to be famous. And even now, while she's definitely heroic, she's still quite vain.
* BareYourMidriff: Prominent in her design, as she originally came from a DatingSim which is usually marketed towards young men.
* BigBad: Of ''Doki Doki Mario Club'' [[spoiler:and the commander of the Milites group in ''Final Fantasy Mario'']]. [[HeelFaceTurn She's since dropped this.]]
* BigDamnHeroes: Saves Mario from a heart attack in ''Luigi's Lesson''. [[spoiler: In ''Mario and the Waluigi Apocalypse'', she saves Mario and [=SMG4=] from the T-pose zombies via giant hammer.]]
* BikerBabe: Rides a motorcycle during ''Luigi's Lesson'' and ''Mad Mario''.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Whooo, boy, is she ever. At least when she starts off. In her debut episode, she appears to be an average love interest in an average VisualNovel. But then she starts to become more and more clingy towards Fishy Boopkins, even going so far to [[spoiler: burn all of his dakimakuras]]!
* BerserkButton: Not paying attention to her or rejecting her is a good way to get on her bad side. She ''is'' a {{Yandere}}, after all.
** Being insulted, according to ''Mario's Hell Kitchen''. Hell, she ''weaponizes it'' during the episode, getting Shroomy to insult her so she can get angry and work faster. Particularly saying she'll never be loved -- or being called ugly -- is a HUGE Berserk Button for her, as Shroomy tells her she'll "never be loved with that horrendous face of hers." She goes full Yandere mode on the vegetables as a result.
--> '''Saiko:''' Insult me! I work better when I'm angry!
** [[spoiler: Killing one of her friends is the ''worst'' thing to do around her: she goes into TranquilFury mode when that happens, and that will most likely be the last thing you see before you die. Francis finds this out the hard way when he murders Desti with a Sephiroth replica; Saiko outright ensures that he will die painfully by stuffing him in one of his own Ink Zuccers and turning it on to maximum, letting the machine drain him of his life while she leaves him to suffer.]]
* BoobsOfSteel: Well-endowed, and is one of the most powerful of the main cast being able to kick people long distances among other things.
* ButNowIMustGo: Rides off on her motorbike after saving Mario's life in "Luigi's Lesson".
* CantSpitItOut: [[WhatYouAreInTheDark She may be able to say it while alone to Boopkins that they were friends]], but she's mistaken for having a stroke when she has to say it in public.
* CharacterDevelopment: Mellows out quite a bit over the course of the series, even more so after the Rapper Bob Arc, though she still keeps her penchant for violence. By the Anime Arc, you can undoubtedly call her heroic.
* ClingyJealousGirl: UpToEleven. She even gets jealous over OTHER anime girls! [[spoiler: It gets to the point where she wants to wipe out all the pretty people in the world... just so SHE can be prettiest!]] She's calmed down recently, but is still a bit yandere-ish.
* CuteAndPsycho: An utterly gorgeous anime-styled young woman from a dating sim brought to life, and a violent homicidal sociopath who will maim and kill anybody who dares rob her of attention or just straight up piss her off.
* ADayInTheLimelight: The Anime Arc puts her center stage, as much of the drama revolving around the anime ban is how it's caused her to be exiled from the Mushroom Kingdom. She becomes the de facto leader for the group in Japan when they seek Axol's help to overturn the ban and again leads the charge [[spoiler: once Meggy gets kidnapped.]]
* TheDreaded: ''Luigi's Lesson'' shows that pretty much everyone fears her and will run from the sight of her. In ''War of the Fat Italians 2018'', she scares [=SMG4=] so much ''he has a heart attack''.
* DropTheHammer: Wields a large, two-handed, wooden one. [[spoiler: She uses it to save Mario and [=SMG4=] from the T-Pose Zombies. ]]
* {{Expy}}: Design-wise, she's a combination of the ladies from ''VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub''. Personality-wise, she's an exaggerated version of Monika (to the point she can be considered an OCStandIn, seeing as how 3D models of the ''DDLC'' girls did not exist at the time).
* FailedASpotCheck: Rescues Fishy Boopkins from falling off a cliff in ''[=SMG4=]: Mario Battle Royale,'' [[spoiler: only for the both of them to be thrown to their deaths by Mario, who was right behind her. They get brought back, thankfully, at the end of the episode, and exact their revenge, as well as all the other people Mario got killed in that episode.]]
* FakeShemp: Aside from her song in "Mario and the Diss Track", Saiko normally uses [[VideoGame/HyruleWarriors Lana]]'s voice clips.
* FreudianExcuse: She acts the way she does mainly because she was so unpopular in her home game. Boopkins rejecting her only made her get worse.
* GadgeteerGenius: Commandeers several mechanical inventions, including turrets and a MiniMecha. [[spoiler: She uses a high-tech laser rifle and pilots a HumongousMecha in ''Final Fantasy Mario''.]]
* GaggingOnYourWords: In ''Mario and the Diss Track'', she has incredible difficulty admitting that Boopkins is her friend, to the extent when she tries to do so, Mario asks if she's having a stroke.
* GoodIsNotNice: While the "good" part is a bit more ambiguous to outsiders, [[UndyingLoyalty her loyalty to her friends]] sets her towards the good guys. That being said, it's generally not a good idea to mess with her or her friends, unless you want to be introduced to her violent side. Harming [[spoiler: or outright ''killing'']] one of her friends is even worse, as that ''will'' guarantee your death by her hand. You could ask Francis [[spoiler: after he killed Desti with Sephiroth, but Saiko ensured his demise.]]
* GratuitousJapanese: Her voice clips are mostly Japanese words, with a few of [[VideoGame/HyruleWarriors Lana and Cia's]] voice clips in there.
* GenkiGirl: How she started off, both as a dating sim A.I. and after becoming a real person. She was very cute and energetic and sweet towards Boopkins, and each time anyone would approach her, she would be friendly. Until they turned their attention away from her did this begin cracking and gave way to her murdereous and angrier side. As right below.
* GrumpyBear: Seems to have become this since her HeelFaceTurn. She's no longer actively hostile towards Mario and co. but still tends to be unfriendly and have a perpetual "I'd rather be anywhere but here" look on her face. There are rare moments since she very first appeared where she'll revert into GenkiGirl mode.
* GirlishPigtails: Possesses these, which fit the more bubbly and cute half of her personality. Otherwise, her hair doesn't fit her mood at all.
* HairTriggerTemper: Oh, yes. She's attacked people for minor slights such as getting her name wrong or ignoring her.
* HatesBeingTouched: When Luigi pats her on the back in ''Mario and the Diss Track'', she immediately crushes his hand and gives him a DeathGlare. In numerous episodes, when her friends give her a hug, her general response is to FreakOut and gripe about her personal space.
-->'''Saiko''': [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Hands. Off.]]
* HeelFaceTurn: Started out as an antagonistic {{Yandere}} who attacked Mario and company on sight. After Luigi befriended her, she's calmed down a lot, though she's still a {{Yandere}} with a HairTriggerTemper.
* HiddenDepths: It's hinted that she's good with technology - see GadgeteerGenius above. In ''Luigi's Lesson'', it's also hinted that beneath her ClingyJealousGirl[=/=]{{Yandere}} attitude she's deeply lonely inside, and just wants companionship and acknowledgment. [[spoiler: And she has a good singing voice too.]]
* IAteWhat: [[spoiler: Finds out that Bob's "special juice" is not wine, but gasoline. She promptly throws the bottle on the floor.]]
* INeedAFreakingDrink: Likes to drink wine. Probably to help her deal with the shenanigans that go on around her. She occasionally drinks beer, too.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Fishy Boopkins, at least before he broke it off. She still considers him a friend, though.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Pretty much ''everything'' is about her. [[BerserkButton Don't ignore or reject her.]] Albeit, these days, she has become substantially less selfish, becoming far more caring of those around her, namely Meggy and Tari, and even Desti.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Her entire motivation for being so angry and murderous: She has been ignored while she was still an AI in a dating sim game forever, and therefore is terribly lonely as a result, leaving her heartbreakingly desperate for even the smallest amount of love or adoration, and thus can't help herself when she's being ignored, as it reminds her of how much it hurt in the game. However, these days, she's since dropped this, as she now has best friends in the form of Meggy and Tari, and if anything is just grumpy and aloof.
* InstantAIJustAddWater: Once just an unpopular love interest from an unnamed dating game, magic from Kamek's wand not only brings her personality to life, [[BecomeARealBoy but it gives her her own body.]]
* JerkassHasAPoint: "Doki Doki Mario Club" rightfully puts Saiko in the wrong for her [[ClingyJealousGirl behavior]] towards Fishy Boopkins. But in her defense, Boopkins showed signs of being InnocentlyInsensitive at best. For starters, he and Lemmy were watching anime girls on TV, ''knowing'' Saiko is there with them, which is basically the equivalent of eyeballing other women on a date. The last straw for Boopkins--Saiko burning his body pillows of Miku--only happened because while showing her his stuff, he casually presented them in his own words as his "most prized possessions", making it seem like he valued a fictional girlfriend over a real one.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: As of "Luigi's Lesson", while she's still a violent Yandere, she's much nicer to others than she was before and acts as an older sister to Meggy and Tari.
* KarmicJackpot: After her HeelFaceTurn, she became the best of friends with [=SMG4=] and co., and nobody was really afraid of her anymore.
* KindheartedCatLover: As we've seen in "Super Challenge 64", cats bring out the best in her.
* LoonyFan: Seems to be one for [[spoiler: post-"Mario And... The Well" Bob, considering how she takes notes on how to get famous in "Mario And The Bob Mansion" and how it was her idea to go to Bob's concert in "The Melancholy of Fishy Boopkins". This is averted after Luigi tells Saiko about what Bob did.]]
* MeaningfulName: '''Saiko Bich'''itaru. [[{{Yandere}} Psycho]]. [[BitchInSheepsClothing Bitch.]] [[DontExplainTheJoke -Itaru]].
** Doubling as a LuckyTranslation: while her surname obviously isn't Japanese, the kanji in her given-name (最子) directly translates as "the greatest child", but can also be read as "the best", which is fitting for her arrogant, violent and attention-seeking personality. May also be an IronicName, as despite this name she was unpopular among fans of the dating sim she was from.
* MoralityPet: Several.
** Luigi, as he was one of the only people who tolerated her at first, and was even willing to befriend her at a time where everyone would head for the hills at the mere sight of her.
** Boopkins, as mentioned above. Took a while to get there, though.
** She forms a strong bond with Meggy and Tari in later videos, which may be due to them being the only other females in the main cast sans Peach.
** Subverted with Francis. He ''was'' an intimidating mafia boss, but he also listened to Saiko without hesitation, and when she was affected by anime being banned from the kingdom, he went out of his way to protect her. But all that is flushed down the toilet the minute he meets Axol, the legendary manga artist. He completely pushes Saiko aside in favor of fawning over Axol. [[spoiler: Then he kidnaps Axol to steal his magic pen, and has no qualms of trying to kill Saiko for opposing him]]. Even before all of that, it was implied that he only saw her as an anime waifu and not an actual person with feelings.
* MulticoloredHair: Let's see... blonde, pink ''and'' purple...
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the "Mean" part of a trio with Meggy and Tari. While ultimately a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, she's still a violent Yandere with a grumpy streak and occasional psychopathic tendencies.
* NonchalantDodge: Some videos show her to be rather good at dodging projectiles.
* NotSoDifferent:
** Amazingly to her former crush Fishy Boopkins, both are people that [[TheFriendNobodyLikes no one seemed to really like]] and desperately want companionship. This is [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] when Fishy Boopkins tells the others to just let her go because [[SympathyForTheDevil he feels sorry for her.]]
** Also to Bob. They both have ego-centric personalities, both desire to be famous and both just want friends due to their extreme loneliness, willing to go to extreme lengths to achieve that. It's not a surprise that when Saiko starts working as Bob's personal assistant during his rap career the two gel fairly well [[spoiler: though the partnership ends very quickly once Luigi tells Saiko about the truth behind Bob's heroics and what he did to Boopkins.]]
* OnlySaneMan: Compared to the likes of [[IdiotHero Mario]] and [[DependingOnTheWriter [=SMG4=]]]. Or, well, as sane as a violence-loving {{Yandere}} can be.
* OutOfFocus: So far, she hasn't really appeared that much as of 2020; with her first appearance being in ''Meggy's Destiny.'' And even then she only has two lines.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: [[spoiler: Saiko does this to Francis after finally managing to get ahold of him in the final battle of the Anime Arc. This crazed otaku chameleon wanted to kidnap all of Inkopolis and use their ink to make his waifu army. And he was directly responsible for the murder of Desti, who was killed by one of his drawings. He ends up being thrown in his own Ink Zuccer by Saiko, who sets it on maximum and leaves him to have the life drained out of him.]]
* ShootTheDog: After Saiko [[spoiler: stuffs Francis in his own Ink Zuccer and leaves him to die]], she closes her eyes as she walks away, as though telling herself that she didn't want it to have to come to this. Which makes sense, considering [[spoiler: Francis originally looked up to her before his attempted genocide]]. Nevertheless, we can tell by the way that she doesn't even turn back after she does it -- as well as the quiet, shaking fury in her voice -- that [[spoiler: she is absolutely repulsed by Francis' actions and that he ''certainly'' deserved it.]]
--> '''Saiko (seething):''' Jackass...
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler: To Bob during the "Bob Rapper Arc." After Bob had achieved his ill-gotten fame by manipulating the main cast into boosting his rap songs, causing everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom to be his fans, Saiko learns how Bob achieved his fame. That, as well as his diss track against the main cast to bump up the ratings causes Fishy to go nearly catatonic, Saiko proceeds to diss ''him'', exposing Bob's actions in the Arc and loses everything.]]
* {{Squee}}: Often over violence.
* SuddenlyVoiced: [[spoiler: "Mario and The Diss Track" has her singing a track called "Darkest Hour".]]
* ThrowTheDogABone:
** She gets a post on Twitter after winning the rock-selling competition in ''The Mario Hustle''.
** In ''SUPER CHALLENGE 64'', she succeeds her challenge of being nice via rescuing a cat stuck in a tree, albeit with much collateral damage.
** In ''Mario and the Diss Track'' [[spoiler: "Darkest Hour" actually succeeds in making Saiko popular.]]
* TeensAreMonsters: Considering she came from a high school dating sim and her youthful personality, Saiko is still a teenager, or at the very least in her early 20s. With this said, if you upset her in the slightest, she instantly becomes homicidal and will or attempt to murder whoever is dumb enough to anger her. However, with Luigi's help, Saiko is substantially less bloodthirsty than before, and her latest victim ''actually'' really deserved it.
* TookALevelInKindness: After the events of "Luigi's Lesson", she becomes friends with Luigi. She hasn't gone on any full-on rampages since, and even helps the heroes out from time to time ([[GrumpyBear if reluctantly)]]. It's since come full circle in a full HeelFaceTurn as, while she's still on the loony, selfish, violent side, Saiko has opened herself up to the others and has learned to care for others, most notably Meggy and even Desti.
* TranquilFury: Saiko is notorious for her HairTriggerTemper and loud, bombastic, violent outbursts. But when [[spoiler:Francis murders Desti]], she is instantly set into this. And it is ''absolutely horrifying,'' yet extremely badass. Her face gets cold as steel, and her voice is a low growl [[spoiler: as she slowly corners Francis and literally grabs him by the neck before tossing him in one of his own Ink Zuccers. She even sets it to ''maximum,'' causing the machine to slowly - and painfully - siphon out his life force]]. Saiko does not so much as hesitate as she walks away, nothing but ice cold ''disgust'' in her voice.
--> '''Francis:''' Hey, hey, let's not do anything rash now! [[spoiler: It was just one Octoling--!]]
--> ''(Saiko grabs him by the throat!)''
--> '''Saiko''': You pathetic waste of space... I'm gonna make you wish you were never born.
* VillainousBreakdown: Has a pretty heartwrenching one in "Doki Doki Mario Club!" after Mario and company defeat her, which leads to her [[DidNotGetTheGirl breaking up with Fishy Boopkins]] and running out of the castle in tears.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: [[spoiler: With Francis and the anime cartel.]]
* WhenSheSmiles: In her debut, before revealing her violent and jealous tendancies, Saiko is actually very cute and bubbly. And even now, if someone shows kindness to her instead of horror and disdain, she behaves very sweet and friendly in turn, Luigi, Meggy, and Tari especially. And yes, her smile is absolutely precious (when it isn't creepy or a SlasherSmile).
* {{Yandere}}: Seriously! She forced Wario and Waluigi to build a mech just because Fishy Boopkins rejected her! Downplayed after Luigi befriends her, but it's still there.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: [[spoiler: At the beginning of the Anime Arc, she can't stay in the Mushroom Kingdom after anime has been banned because she ''is'' a living breathing anime character. So she (and [=SMG4=], Boopkins and Bob, who are escorting her) flees to Japan. She comes back to the kingdom when they find Axol, who can help them with lifting the ban.]]

!!Tari
->'''Voiced by:''' Celeste Notley-Smith
->'''First appearance:''' "Mario the Ultimate Gamer"
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tari.PNG]]

A [[ShyBlueHairedGirl shy blue-haired]] GamerChick who [[ButtMonkey tends to get hurt a lot]]. Mario turns to her for guidance on how to be a good player and kick [=SMG4=]'s butt at ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Super Smash]] [[BlandNameProduct Each Other In The Ass]] [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Bros.]]''
::
For tropes regarding her AlternateUniverse version in ''WebAnimation/MetaRunner'', click [[Characters/MetaRunner here]].

* {{Adorkable}}: Very much so. She's a shy GamerChick that's also very friendly.
* AloneWithThePsycho: [[spoiler:''The Mario Convention'' ended with her being in the same vicinity as [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds Waluigi]], who had turned many people, including her best friend [[ActionGirl Meggy]] into mindless zombies. Oh, and he also [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulu brainwashed Master Hand]]. Considering this took place late at night in the convention, and no other route of escape is evident, her situation at the time was all but grim.]]
** [[spoiler: Thankfully, she was revealed to be fine in War of the Fat Italians 2018, giving her the opportunity to pull a BigDamnHeroes moment.]]
* ArmorPiercingResponse: In "Meggy's Bootcamp". [[spoiler: When Meggy berates her along with Mario and Luigi for their poor performance during her training regime, Tari has a feeble and simple response -- but it works in making Meggy realize that she's demanding way too much from them.]]
--> '''Tari:''' [[spoiler: Meggy... we ''are'' trying...]]
* BerserkButton: In "The Mario Purge", she gets enraged when Quackington, her rubber ducky gets destroyed. A smaller one, seen in her first appearance, is dissing her for being a GamerChick, as Bob learns the hard way.
* BlushSticker: She always appears to be blushing.
* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler: During ''War of the Fat Italians 2018'', Tari appears along with [[ChekhovsGun a Rejection-powered controller]] and by controlling [=SMG4=], she manages to smash Waluigi's staff, freeing the T-pose zombies from Waluigi's control and reverting them back to normal.]]
* ButtMonkey: In her first appearance alone, she gets launched into a vending machine, has her head flattened by a mallet, gets kicked by Mario, attacked by ducks, and falls to the concrete ground of Peach's moat when the window sill she's standing on crumbles beneath her feet. It's clear that she will take a lot of abuse during her mainstay as a recurring character.
** [[spoiler: Also best shown in the climax of ''War of the Fat Italians 2018'', where even in her dramatic intro, she trips and falls comically from the pile of rubble she was standing on.]]
* CompanionCube: Her rubber ducky, Quackington. After its "death" in ''The Mario Purge'', it gets replaced in ''[=SMG4=] Christmas 2018'' by one named Archibald.
* CripplingOverspecialisation: INCREDIBLY good at games, to the point of beating ''[[TheGunslinger Meggy]]'' in a shooting game. However, [[ShrinkingViolet she's really shy]] and awkward socially and doesn't seem to be good at anything else. Further confirmed in "Meggy's Bootcamp", as when Meggy wants to know why Tari is struggling to shoot the targets in Splatfest practice despite her skills at the carnival, Tari explains that she's only really good at games and the Splatfest is more of a sport.
* CutenessProximity: She [[{{Understatement}} squees with joy]] around rubber duckies.
* {{Cyborg}}: By her own admission, which she says is why she's so incredible at games. One of her arms appears to be mechanical. ''Meta Runner'' establishes that some people went so far as to replace limbs with faster, more precise robotics specifically to be good at games - such is likely the case here, too.
* DrivenToMadness: Taking away the internet, preventing her from playing her games online, caused her (and Meggy and Saiko) to go crazy.
* EnemyScan: Tari uses this to incapacitate the ''[[ShowWithinAShow Super Smash-each-other]]-[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros in-the-Ass Bros.]]'' knockoffs of Toad and Peach.
* FireForgedFriends: She and Meggy start out as rivals in "The Mario Carnival", but when she destroys Meggy in a shooting competition, Meggy [[{{Squee}} is so amazed by her skills]] that they [[DefeatMeansFriendship become great friends]].
* GameFace: When she uses her cyborg abilities, her eyes go completely blue (if only for a few seconds).
* GamerChick: She's one of the most skilled gamers in the series, beating all the guys she plays against without a sweat. However, she only really enjoys playing for fun. [[spoiler: She even manages to beat Super Saiyan God Goku - who while not the real thing presumably has the same speed and reaction time - at a video game, though she gets on the receiving end of a NeckLift for it.]]
* HeroOfAnotherStory: More a different series. While it's unclear in ''[=SM64 Bloopers=]'', Tari is also known for being the protagonist of [=SMG4=]'s original series ''WebAnimation/MetaRunner''.
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Her shooting skills blow Meggy's out of the water, as she manages to get a score of ''infinity'' in a shooting contest.
* IntrepidFictioneer: Similar to her ''WebAnimation/MetaRunner'' counterpart. No thanks to Mario, both of them get warped into their fighting game in "The Tari Abnormality".
* LetsGetDangerous: When playing games, or if her [[CompanionCube duck]] is threatened.
* MeaningfulName: Her name is a play on Creator/{{Atari}}.
* MoralityPet: While not quite to the same extent as Meggy, Tari is one of the few people Mario is not as much of a jerk to.
* NiceGirl: She's one of the sweetest and non-confrontational people Mario has ever met, and only wants to make sure everyone is happy in the end. [[spoiler: Even when in a rap battle against [[BigBad Waluigi]] in WOTFI 2018, the GrandFinale of the [[CerebusSyndrome Waluigi Arc,]] she's still against actually fighting and suggests just playing games instead.]]
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the "Nice" part of a trio with Meggy and Saiko, being a ShrinkingViolet GamerChick who is one of the nicest and least violent characters in the series.
* PeekABangs: Tari’s hair covers one of her eyes, and she has a shy personality associated with this trope.
* ProneToTears: She cries a lot, whether it's over serious matters like [[spoiler: trying in vain to talk sense into Meggy while she's a T-Pose zombie]], or if it's over Bob's, um...[[BlatantLies "beautiful story"]] of Bobmas.
* ProperlyParanoid: She doesn't trust the Anime Cartel and says they're bad guys. [[spoiler: Turns out she was right.]]
* ShrinkingViolet: She's quite easy to fluster.
* ShyBlueHairedGirl: Her blue hair fits her shy personality well.
* SitcomArchNemesis: [[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarepants Bubble Bass]], apparently.
* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Takes a lot of abuse in the name of comedy.
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler: Waluigi had all but won, mind-controlling Master Hand, turning everyone except Mario and [=SMG4=] into T-pose Zombies and forcing the two men to fight for his amusement. He did not expect Tari's appearance, nor her gaming skills to surpass his, and he was especially caught off guard by her bold strategy of [[GoForTheCommander sending SMG4 straight for Waluigi]]. This leads to Waluigi being (temporarily) depowered and the T-Pose Zombies being freed.]]
* SympathyForTheDevil: She sympathizes with [[AntiVillain Mango]] when he says he doesn't want to fight anyone in "The Tari Abnormality".
* TheKidWithTheRemoteControl: [[spoiler: At the end of "War on Smash Bros. Ultimate", she takes control of [[ItMakesSenseInContext the Shroominator]] and curb-stomps Bowser Jr., Iggy, Morton, Wendy, and Roy.]]
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Girly Girl to Meggy's Tomboy.
* WeakButSkilled: Near useless in an actual, physical fight, but ''very'' skilled at video games.
* WomanChild: Downplayed as she's reasonably level-headed, but she definitely acts like this at times. She has a rubber ducky for a CompanionCube, she cries easily, and she completely believes the stories of "Bobsgiving" and "Bobmas".
* WorthyOpponent: To Meggy after beating her in a shooting competition, and FireForgedFriends on top of that.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Which perfectly matches her blue outfit.

The main protagonist and central character of the entire series. He is [[TrademarkFavoriteFood crazy for spaghetti]] and extremely retarded. Almost all of the bloopers revolve around him and the trouble that he gets the main cast and himself into.

* AbusiveParents: Considering his father was horrified of how ugly he was when he was born and immediately attempted to kill him to "prevent him from laying eggs", and then callously throwing him out the window, leaving him to grow up without parental love, it could explain why Mario is the way he is.
* AbsenteeActor:
** Mario doesn't appear at all in "The Battletoads Justice Crew".
** Not counting the promotion at the beginning, Mario is completely absent during ''The Japan Trip'', the first time he's not been in an episode in years. This is justified, as he's still stuck working for Francis back in the Mushroom Kingdom following ''Mario's Illegal Operation''.
** Additionally, he is mentioned and shown in the video thumbnail but does not physically appear in "The Weegee Uprising".
* {{Acrofatic}}: Mario has a surprisingly high level of agility when he concentrates. When he doesn't...
* AdaptationalJerkass: In this canon, Mario is portrayed as a selfish JerkAss obsessed with [[TrademarkFavoriteFood spaghetti]], compared to his official heroic depiction in Nintendo's games. [=SMG4=] admitted in a 2015 [=QnA=] that the reason behind this is because he thought the generic hero character would be boring. Subverted, however, as since 2016, he's [[TookALevelInKindness Taken a Level in Kindness]] thanks to meeting Meggy and Tari, he's come to finally care about something other than himself or spaghetti, to a heartwarmingly massive degree.
* {{Adorkable}}: He is pretty adorable, for a sociopathic [[TheDitz dumbass]].
* AffectionateNickname: "Red", courtesy of Meggy.
* AmbiguousDisorder: He has sociopathic tendencies, mental retardation, and a distinct LackOfEmpathy mostly seen in borderline personality disorder. He's actually began to overcome this since The Waluigi Arc.
* AntiHero: Has shades of ClassicalAntiHero with his retardedness, but also has bits of the modern variety with him being a [[JerkAss total prick]] and actually being the ''cause'' of the situations the main cast get involved with. However, he's slowly began shedding this with a more GoodIsNotNice disposition.
* ArtShift: Frequently shifts between his ''Videogame/SuperMario64'' model (rendered in either [=SM64=] itself when using movement or in Garry's Mod when in ragdoll mode) and a modern Mario model. Other times he can become a sprite drawn in one of several styles.
* {{Asexuality}}: Other than his "[[CargoShip love]]" for spaghetti, Mario doesn't seem to be attracted to anyone. Not even [[OfficialCouple Peach]].
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: [[SmartBall He has a rare moment of this]] in "Stupid Mario World", when, after he and Yoshi get knocked off of Rainbow Road and sent flying towards Earth, Mario somehow manages to calculate the exact area of Bowser's bouncy castle and land both himself and Yoshi into it perfectly.
* AxCrazy: At times. He once threatened [=SMG4=] with a knife for asking if he can have some of his Spaghetti.
* BarbieDollAnatomy: Whenever Mario is naked, this trope applies.
* BellyButtonless: When he's naked. He is however given a belly button in fan art.

[[quoteright:450:[[labelnote:Click here to see [=SMG4=] in real life ]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/realsmg4.PNG[[/labelnote]]]]
The creator of the bloopers and the deuteragonist of the series. He resides in the castle with Mario, often making his bloopers (or playing Minecraft), and gets generally annoyed by Mario (who is apparently his assistant), but he likes him nonetheless.

* {{Adorkable}}: Of the badass variety.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Kicks [=SMG3=]'s ass on a weekly basis.
* AnIcePerson: Gains these powers in "Final Fantasy Mario".
* AntiHero: He is a NiceGuy, but '''''DO NOT''''' get on his bad side.
* AntiVillain: In "Mario's Illegal Operation". He only works as a member of the Anime Secret Service due to a promise to Princess Peach and makes it clear that he doesn't really want to use force against Mario and the gang. [[spoiler: He's also horrified at the fact that the anime ban has forced Saiko to leave the Mushroom Kingdom in order to avoid persecution, and as "The Japan Trip" shows, helps her to overturn the ban.]]
* AuthorAvatar: Represents [=SMG4=] as a whole.
* AxCrazy: A rare heroic version, but he can be quite unstable when pissed off.
* BadassAdorable: He's [[{{Adorkable}} nerdy]], [[NiceGuy friendly]], and takes on [[SerialKiller serial killers]] and other AxCrazy monsters on a daily basis, and trumps them regularly.
* BadassBookworm: He is the smartest character in the entire series, and he kicks more ass than the others.
* BadassNormal: Unlike Mario, he doesn't have any weird powers, he just has his wits and that is enough.
* BenevolentBoss: Mario works for him, and he is '''''extremely''''' patient with him.
* BerserkButton:
** '''''Do not touch his computer.'''''
** Or change the color of his gloves.
** Don't even steal his password or give it to another person. He will give off [[http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140516223348/supermarioglitchy4/images/a/a8/Accountloss-2.png this look]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He's an AntiHero for a reason.
* BigEater: While not as much as Mario, he can still eat his fair share in food. "Mario University" reveals that he was the one who ate most of the food in the college cafeteria.
* ButtMonkey: Not usually, but he does catch hell in a few episodes.
* CloudCuckoolander: On bad days.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Serves as this to [[JerkAss Mario]] all the freaking time.
* TheComicallySerious: At least when around Mario.
* ADayInTheLimelight: "The Day [=SMG4=] Posted Cringe" and "[=SMG4=] Runs Out Of Memes", among other earlier ones. "The Japan Trip" counts too, mostly through not sharing his screentime with Mario.
* DeadpanSnarker: Only when dealing with Mario silliness, usually he's pretty average.
* DeathGlare: Gives these to Mario all the time, also if you steal his password.
* DependingOnTheWriter: He can either be making bloopers... or just hangin' out at the castle. Or he could be intelligent and aware of Mario's retardation or act just as retarded as him.
* DepravedKidsShowHost: He's one of these in "Ssenmodnar 12: Stolen Spaghetti Edition".
* DoesNotLikeSpam: He hates spaghetti.
* TheDitz: When he's this he can be just as retarded as '''''Mario'''''.
* FaceHeelTurn: Works for the [[FunWithAcronyms Anime Secret Service]] for most of "Mario's Illegal Operation", then undergoes a HeelFaceTurn [[spoiler: after finding out [[YouCantGoHomeAgain how the anti-anime laws affect Saiko.]]]]
* {{Flanderization}}: Went from being the well-rounded straight man and foil to Mario's antics to simply "the meme man" as of 2017.
* {{Foil}}: To Mario, most of the time.
* FreakOut:
** He goes into one in "Problematic Pipe Problems" from the thought of becoming an old man. It persists for the rest of the blooper, to the point where he goes into a pipe labeled "Gay bar" instead of the actual exit.
** He has another one during "Freddy's Ultimate Custom Spaghetteria" when the flood of comments telling him to make the blooper become too much.
* LetsGetDangerous: When pissed off.
* MoralityPet: To Mario, ''barely''.
* NiceGuy: Other than the times he gets frustrated with Mario's stupidity or {{Jerkass}} behavior, he is pretty friendly and outgoing.
* NiceHat: He is a palette swap of Mario after all.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler:His suspicions about [=SMG3=]'s new studio in ''Mario's Spicy Day 🔥'' end up being unfounded, and winds up forcing [=SMG3=] to [[ThenLetMeBeEvil fall back into villainy]].]]
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the "In Between" of a trio with Mario and Luigi. While a pretty affable and sane guy most of the time, [[BewareTheNiceOnes pissing him off is still a really bad idea]]. He's also not above going along with Mario's crazy antics from time to time.
* NotSoAboveItAll: See DependingOnTheWriter above.
* NotWhatISignedOnFor: During the Anime Arc, he's [[spoiler:initially in favor of Peach's anime ban and joins the Anime Secret Servive, serving as a HeroAntagonist throughout the majority of "Mario's Illegal Operation." When he discovers that said ban also applies to anime ''characters'' like Saiko, he's disgusted and quits, stating outright that he never would have joined the A.S.S. had he known that was the case.]]
* OnlySaneMan: Is usually this, but it can [[DependingOnTheWriter vary based on the story]].
* PersonOfMassConstruction: In "Final Fantasy Mario" -- he uses his new AnIcePerson magic to create handy things (a LivingSnowman, a giant [[VideoGame/MarioBros Freezie]], a defensive glacier wall, etc.) for himself, Mario, and Meggy.
* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Mario's red. [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience This is further emphasized by the color of their hats]].
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Sensitive Guy to Mario's Manly Man.
* SeriousBusiness: Memes are everything to him, both in the bloopers and in real life.
--> "Don't forget the memes!"
* SuddenlyVoiced: Starting from 2019, Luke would start voicing his avatar, though in the short-phrase style like Tari over full sentences. This is most noticeable in ''The Japan Trip''.
