A Super Mario lore specialist issues an important correction: “Mario does not ‘die and go to hell’ – he is sent there directly while still alive” new features
Mario historian Supper Mario Broth has acknowledged a mistake where they incorrectly stated that Paper Mario died and went to hell; it turns out that isn’t true.
Despite never being a story-focused game, the Super Mario extended universe has some bizarre lore. We’re seeing this recently with the mass confusion around Donkey Kong Bananza adding a young version of Pauline despite her being an adult when Donkey Kong’s grandpa (or maybe dad?) kidnapped her in the original arcade game.
To illustrate how wild the Mario lore gets, Twitter user Shitposts.mp4 reposted a tweet from the lore specialist Supper Mario Broth. The original post points out that in the 1990s Super Mario World, when Mario loses all of his lives, he is shown with a halo above his head, implying Mario will go to heaven when he dies. However, in Super Paper Mario (2007), he is sent to “The Underwhere,” which is the series’ equivalent of hell, implying that Mario committed some heinous act between 1990 and 2007 that secured him a spot in hell.
