Real life been hittin me hard recently, so this one took way longer than anticipated. Thanks for always showing up buddies
You take all the time you need man, I'll always show up.
You're not alone buddy, take care of yourself and thank you for this one. It helped make my day a bit brighter 💚 Luigi rules.
I feel you
We'll be here, chin up and do what you do
Glad to see it come through - RL first tho!
Daisy and Luigi are that couple that people are never sure are a couple, but then suddenly they are married. Some loves are quiet my man.
It's always felt like to me, if the Mario Bros were to rescue someone, Mario would be the one to handle the problem right away, and Luigi would be the one to make sure you're okay and give you a cookie and a hug before joining his brother. Both are needed, but one is more warm and personal.
That's apt as hell. Fully agreed
Hard agree
Mario stops you from crying, then Luigi makes you smile and laugh again.
@@bappojujubes981... and Waluigi touches you
@@hanshesthagen2843 while Wario films it and sells the tapes in the black market.
Luigi is definitely the bravest character in the series. Bravery isn't the absence of fear, but the ability to push through IN SPITE of fear. Luigi is afraid of almost everything, yet that fear doesn't paralyze him. He always pushes through.
He's *equally* afraid of everything. He has the same response to seeing a mouse scurry across the kitchen floor as coming face-to-face with a Kaiju, which means he's too cowardly to be cowered by anything.
Fearless vs brave
I think the special part about Mario and Luigi's relationship is that despite all of the "player 2" jokes, Mario himself always gives his brother props in the games where Luigi is integral or a lead. Luigi's Mansion 2 has him telling Luigi, that "Luigi is number 1." And in the Mario and Luigi games, while everyone else dumps on Luigi, Mario never does and always encourages him.
Yeah, number 2. He didn't give a shit about Luigi in 1 😂, Luigi crying and hugging Mario. Mario being like, "ugh Luigi, you're so annoying"
@@SoggyCoffeeAddict Why are you making shit up? Did you even play LM1? The ending is just Mario popping out of the machine dazed and confused and Luigi laughing with tears in his eyes because he is relieved.
@@Entropic_Alloy I did, Mario wasn't in the slightest bit reliefed to see Luigi again. If that happened to me and my girlfriend for instance (my little brother is a manipulative drug addict in the making, so not a fair comparison) saved me, my first instinct would be to hug them back and just be happy to be with them again. Pretty sure there's also a sports game where if Luigi gets the trophy Mario will walk up to him on stage clapping and looking so sarcastic about it, then step on Luigi's foot like "haha brother, you don't deserve that" 😂
@@SoggyCoffeeAddict Sounds to me like you may be projecting your own feelings and experiences of what a brother is onto Mario lol
@@Thealseie nah, just recalling my favorite memories of "Mario the bad guy". You don't hear me adding more evidence because I don't know of any other instances
Whenever I see Luigi's high HP and Defense in Mario & Luigi, I always think that he's determined to keep Mario safe, willing to take a hit or two for him so he can land his stronger attacks. The thought is really sold in Dream Team, where he'll buff Mario while in the dream world, and will even go giant in certain cases, even if the first three transformations occurred while he was cowering in fear,.The last two transformations show that, when his brother is in danger, he's willing to do anything to keep him safe, even if it means fighting the guardian of dreams and giant Bowser, while Mario, now weaker than his brother, cheers him on and even helps Luigi perform either a healing move or a spin jump, while also steering the finishing move (literally).
Growing up as a younger brother, always stuck with the crappier controller and the "2P" over my head just because my older brother said so, Luigi is and always will be my favorite Mario character of all time. This dude reminded me that it was okay to be second place, and even now that I'm much older and that hierarchy of brotherhood means nothing like it used to, he's just an all-round more interesting character to me than Mario ever could be. I loved this video, Ghost, fantastic work and I hope things get better for you soon my man
The ending of Luigi's Mansion actually got to me enough as a kid to make me choke up thinking about the relationship I had with my own brother. It's such a perfect character moment, borderline masterpiece, if it was in a film it'd win an oscar. Charles Martinet's actual best voice acting, he laughs and cries and it just wraps so much about him up into a succinct moment--and his only line of dialogue is saying "oh, Mario" with relief and love and exhaustion. It's not a good cutscene, it's utterly beautiful and it's only like 15 seconds.
Super Luigi World is still one of my favorite jokes Nintendo ever played
A brave man it's not he who is fearless, but he who even when beset by terror can find the will to go forward
Every Luigi centric game ever, even if he soemtimes need a push to start
Luigi is a true hero because no matter how scared he gets, he'll always rise to the occasion.
True courage is doing the right thing, even if you're afraid to do it.
This video is so endearing man.
This reminded me of a comic I saw on twitter a few days ago. It depicted Luigi just chilling at the mario brothers' house while taking care of things there (the laundry, the garden and so on). It is infered that Mario is on another adventure for the day; showed through a dinner plate made by Luigi, ready for Mario when he gets back.
I think that comic shows one of the points of the video. Luigi is no action hero, he knows Mario is more than capable of handling things by himself. But if the situation calls for it, he will step up. My personal headcanon is that Luigi preffers a more quiet life, but is still willing to help however he can whenever he is needed.
Luigis Mansion really solidified Luigi as my favorite Mario character, seeing him in his own game and overcoming the nightmarish obstacles was just perfect
Luigi has been one of my favorite characters in fiction. By the same token, Luigi and Daisy is my favorite fictional relationship of all time! Excellent work, dude!
Luigi’s mansion was a surprise classic with an absolutely jamming soundtrack, loved it
Luigi as a hero reminds me of this quote from Skyrim: What is better? To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?” ~ Paarthurnax, Skyrim despite being afraid, he always steps up. He overcomes, which in my opinion makes him a better hero than Mario.
I'm pretty sure the best compassion for LOTR isn't Aragorn and Boromir for them but Boromir and Faramir, with Boromir being favoured by everyone and seen as the golden boy of Gondor while his little brother being seen as a problem child who has a lot of good qualities but isn't seen by the public or his family as being the best son.
I have to say, I love Mario’s signature, especially the face that he writes it to the rhythm of his theme song
Luigi in the streets, Paarthunax in the SHEETS
And Daisy knows it.
I laughed with a tear in my eye during the entire LotR section. Physically threw my head back when the logo hit the screen.
True, younger brothers are always the lovable, fun and gutsy PLAYER #2.
Not enough people acknowledge the fact that Luigi's dance is literally him weaponizing his depression and inferiority complex.
people do it irl too, just more tactically
The way I see it, with Mario it's because he's been the hero so long that it's just his default state. With Luigi he has to push past his fears, insecurities, and doubts to accomplish just as much. But as long as it helps the red jumpmanor his friends, he will go through fire, flames and horror to see things through.
How do I feel about Luigi? Let's put it this way: Mario has spent 30+ years jumping for pennies. Luigi has a mansion.
He sure runs a fun game of poker.
Mario may be fearless, but Luigi is courageous.
I so want to see a remake of Super Mario Land in wich it is actually revealed that Luigi needed to assume the role of his brother because maby idk in Super Mario Brothers 2 it turns out Mario has fallen under a sleeping spell and can't wske up or something. Mario recives a letter from Sarasaland that Bowser is there and has kidnapped Princess Daisy but since he is unavailable and Luigi can't let the poor people of Sarasaland suffer and ruin his brothers reputation he gears up in disguise and goes himself. (It could even be that he acts a bit less cowardly given that he needs to represent his brother)
In a secret endcredits scene than it could be revealed that Princess Daisy was invited by Princess Peach to negociate a treaty and in the talks the mention of Mario as a savious comes up. Talking to her and maby seeing the two Brothers when she left the castle after official buisness Princess Daisy puts two and two togheter and thanks Luigi properly with a little kiss on the cheek.
Ok maby it's a bit to much but I can dream damn it.
Woah! Dude congrats so much on the growth. You love to see it.
1 mill in no time! 🎉
Luigi: "I'll take a milk."
Nord: "Milk Drinker"
Luigi perfectly embodies the quote "True courage is not the absence of fear, but the choice to act in spite of it." I've always found him more interesting than Mario, I DO ship him with Daisy, and the scene in the movie where he proudly talks about getting a call from their mother about the commercial was adorable.
The G O A T
Greenest Of All Time
L is real
Mario is missing is the best game ever.
There's definitely an argument that mario & Luigi are comparable to aragorn & borimir. But honestly I'd argue that there more comparable to frodo & sam. Mainly in there places in the series & personalities. While everyone knows frodos place in the series as the ring bearer & main character driving the story to its completion. Sam is right along side him. Growing braver and braver as time goes on. He went from a hobbit scared of taking the furthest step from home that he's ever been to the one carrying frodo up the burning hot path leading to the entrance to Mount doom. And honestly I believe he's more well loved because of it. Sam was a humble man who just wanted to be happy. He didn't mind being number two on the journey. And those are some of the best qualities I find in both Luigi & Sam.
As a literal lifelong Luigi main, thank you for this.
The "look at the socks" part made me realize..
that I just found Waldo. That's what Luigi is, the character that is psychologically hidden from our view as we focus on either the gameplay or on Mario.
You should do a podcast of this series, your audio and your scripts are top notch
M&L Dream Team has gotta be one of my favorite depictions for Luigi.
Luigi is the comic relief hero to his brother the straight line hero
I really enjoy that his actual first major hero role was in a children horror comedy game
I always imagined Mario and Peach as the popular football star and cheer captain in high school. They do like each other but on a certain level they are only dating because they the two most popular kids in school.
Luigi and Daisy are like the two nerds in band class that aren’t super romantic but are very friendly. In fact if you could confuse them for brother and sister if you didn’t know they were dating.
In some ways, we're all Luigi. Stay green everyone 🤌
The "Mario, where are you?" commercial was a reference to the theme for the show "Car 54, where are you?" Starring Fred Gywnne aka Herman Munster.
me and my sister agree with each other, since in Mario canon the Mario games exist, that Mario is actually player 2 and Luigi is player 1. They are of course playing as their favorite character. Each other.
If you look into the lore for the Canon games, Peach never really pairs up with Mario. Iirc, they go on a single date, and Peach decided Mario wasn't her type, so Mario went off to another kingdom to do his thing, where he met Daisy and hooked up with her. That history also lends credence to the fan theory that Rosalina is actually Peach and Luigi's daughter from the future, based on her story as told in that little picture book.
1:37 - Luigi doing all the work while Mario gets the credit is a nice touch.
I've always enjoyed Luigi, because growing up I was the little brother and player 2. I like others more, like Donkey Kong (DKC was a huge part of my childhood), but Luigi will always be special to me. I always enjoy when he gets to shine.
I love when we get to see Mario and Luigi interact with each other; it's always just so sweet! Maybe we will get more Mario & Luigi RPGs someday because they are my absolute favourites. Luigi will always be a favourite character being this cowardly but lovable guy who nevertheless bravely soldiers on when everyone is depending on him. I do hope Mario gets more chances to develop characterisation like his younger bro beyond being the default hero (he's getting there slowly). 😊
(P.S The one weird thing about Luigi is how his voice was just so all over the place in the N64 era. His Mario Party voice is...something else.)
I like to think that Mario and Peach are a more traditional relationship, like how Mario and Peach represent traditional heroes and damsels/heroines. Luigi and Daisy, by comparison, are a bit deeper, a bit more nuanced, like the green man himself.
It'd be interesting to see a DK Heropedia as we could see him go from curmudgeon ape tangling with Mario to laid back 90's man in the DK Country games to what he is now. I hope you get the chance to make it and take a real look at Nintendo's masterful monke.
A duo in a similar vein to Mario and Luigi, to me, is Tintin and Captain Barnacle. It's a very similar look at the intrepid hero and their all-too-human sidekick. Not sure if that's more nerdy than the lord of the rings comparison or not
Remember when Game Theory claimed Mario hated Luigi because... Mario playfully squashed Luigi's foot for a second one time?
I'd love to see you do a Heropedia video on Hat Kid from A Hat in Time.
Though if it was my own descriptor of what I believe she is, is that she is a very strong embodiment of a Chaotic Neutral Child/Young Protagonist.
In more layman's terms she is a very Smug Anti-Hero type who is just as likely to help you and be your best friend, as she is to beat you up, cause unintentional havoc or kick you off a cliff while giggling.
# 001 If they ever do a scene in the upcoming Mario Movie where Luigi wins in a situation by doing absolutely nothing, he will have achieved PEAK greatness! I'm saying this unironically.
Luigi like player two characters made playing player two fun and sometimes more fun than being player one.
You make good videos man. Always some interesting angle in there that makes me think a little deeper about the character and what they could be representing
Old Luigi sounds like Italian Yogi Bear.
This video put a lot of perspective in my life. I had a brother whose name was also Mario, he was three years older than me and he passed away a few years ago. When we were kids and we played any game, I used to be the second player since he was the older. That means I was always Luigi, so over the years I became accustomed to be the second controller, and ever since I always choose Luigi has my player in any game where he is playable. I truly understand why Luigi is the way he is, his older brother is always there to help and protect him. Thanks for the memories!! Really loved the video 🥲
Luigi, the Wesley Wyndam Pryce of the Mario universe.
Link's best bud, and Mario's backup.
This is exactly what I needed right now bc 1) I need to get to sleep & 2) I have had the worst time lately and I always love your videos. ❤️
Hope you feel better. I'm having an awful time right now too and I should be sleeping but a panic attack Is keeping me awake.
Hope both of you are feeling better! You are having a bad day(s), not a bad life, remember that!!
@@Gwinnmusic Thanks. I'm feeling better. I have pneumonia and my side was starting to hurt like the first time I had it. That first time I had pneumonia I ended up in the hospital for a month, with a giant needle sticking into my back to drain my lung. I was dreading it getting that bad again. I am feeling better but still somewhat sick though. I just Don't want to end up in the hospital again, not fun.
Luigi is my favourite character of all time. I love him so much
I'd love to see more Mario games focused solely on Luigi, dude deserves more games where he is the star.
My eyes: hey, Luigi's here
My brain: ye, Waaaluigi
I think we can all agree that the Mario series wouldn't be the same if Lugi was removed from it.
Even though I grew apart from Nintendo over the years, Luigi has always been in my top 5 next to Bayonetta, Rouge, Raziel and Zidane.
Being second best means you have the gold star personality.
Excellent use of the Melee opening theme aka the best video game theme of all time! Luigi is my fav as well. Also obligatory R* character mention: Edgar Ross
My brother introduced you to me when you are at 37k subs. Since then it's awesome to see the growth your channel.
The Mario party team names give me the vibe that while Mario and Peach are the sensationalized it couple in the spotlight with all the hype and drama around them, Luigi and Daisy are in an actual healthy steady relationship in the background and feel no need to broadcast it
Green was my favorite color when I was a kid and I was always tall so I always felt more attached to Luigi. So yeah I was always the one picking Luigi over Mario too.
Luigi and the Arbiter taught me player 2 is still cool
It might be sad to say but Daisy started out as a sweetheart for Mario....but honestly I think it is about time to change history and make a modern remake of Super Mario Land called Super Luigi Land or maby Luigi in Sarasa Land or something and say that it was never Mario but actually Luigi who saved Princess Daisy.....
or maby make it a plot twist at the end where Sarasa Land heared of this legendary hero of Moshroom Kingdom called Mario but he was sick or something and as the good little brother and person he is Luigi didn't want to see Marios reputation fall or leave the Kingdom of Sarada Land in their perill so he dawns Marios clothes and saves the Kingdom instead.
Later on when Princess Daisy comes to a visit to the Moshroom Kingdom she sees the real Mario for the first time wanting to thank him for his actions but sees how short he is and Luigi is also there and she sees how tall he is.
She puts 2 and 2 togheter and finally understands who the real hero of the Kingdom of Serasa Land is.
Thous finding it very sweet of Luigi to have gone through so much trouble for his brother and to save her.
And that is were their actual romance started.
Mario has a mustache because they couldn't design a mouth, a hat because they couldn't design hair and overalls to differentiate arms from the torso. Everything iconic about Mario and Luigi was completely by accident and technical restraints at the time
Your voice is so soothing man. Keep up the great work!
5:34 Killed me with that casual line about racially unbalanced media coverage 😅
"Mario from Donkey Kong!"
HA! Screw you, MatPat, Jumpman IS the same person as Mario!
This is gonna sound weird, but I'm glad to see this cause I just recently saw some fan art of Wario stealing daisy and I was like "Noooooooo doing my boy dirty"
Ladies never say no to Wario.
@Charles Hastings Gotta be the moustache.
I don't know why but this video made me cry. It probably is because I'm the younger brother and seeing the love for player 2 is nice to hear
I think one of Luigi‘s core character traits is that of the guy who is deeply scared but is also profoundly brave like Usopp from one piece or Eduardo from fosters home for imaginary friends they are deeply afraid of danger but show true courage in dangerous situations because they care so much about their loved ones
Luigi started out as a Clone then grew into a man of his own.
luigi lore : forgot that the leftover pizza was in the fridge for a week
I find it hilarious that Luigi is essentially the antichrist in Super Paper Mario.
Luigi doesn't sit in Mario's shadow, he willing watches from the sidelines. Because Luigi know what it takes to be a winner, what he must do to get there...
Nothing.
Heropedia sounds like a disease an old person would have or like it would be in a ad mesothelioma
Luigi ain't a coward; cowardice implies running from fear. Luigi might run sometimes, but he always faces his fear. That is called courage. A scared-y cat? Yes. A coward. NO.
Luigi vs Kratos.
He runs to fight again, He fights to run away...
My favorite Nintendo characters are of course me Wario & my brother Waluigi.
13:00 my Brin when I try to study
It might be the fact that I'm in my early thirties but I'm actually pumped for the Mario movie. I like the choices of voice actors. I feel like it'd be super annoying to hear that awful fake italian accent for anything over 5 mins and I like the idea of them going back to their Brooklyn origins for a change.
Exactly! Give Pratt a chance!
Luigi is my favorite Mario character I ever had 🙂💚
Ohhh yeah It's Luigi time
Would donkey kong be a hero or villain pedia?
Wait wait lol the 90’s movie confirmed Daisy and Luigi are together 😂 26:46
Every time you said twins I pondered how technically accurate that is 🤔 I never thought of them as twins but then again, Luigi was literally a clone at first...
Luigi really is among the leagues of Artorias, Sgt. Johnson, etc.
Artorias is a great warrior who plunged into the scariest place in Dark Souls lore to save people. Just like Luigi. Sgt. Johnson is voiced by David Scully. Luigi should be voiced by David Scully.
I wonder....are you aware you can hear Charles Martinet in Skyrim? He voices a particular white dragon.
1:54
Mario's even Shorter!
Peach is around 6'
Luigi is around 5' 10"
and MARIO is 5' 1"
My tummy hurts, can you kiss it and rub it to make it feel better 🫃🧚🏿🫃🏼🫃🏽🫃🏾🫃🏿
Luigi is the one and only party star. Nobody can tell me otherwise
Another splendid video essay.
Mario is a hero because he projects an image of unflappable confidnece.
Luigi is a bigger hero becasue he can't hide how scared he is, but he still does the right thing anyway.
Mario the plumber was originally Jumpman the Carpenter.
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
Is it just me, or does Waluigi just scream, that bad guy that became a good guy, that could still go back any time, so they keep you on your toes? You know, like Vegeta, or Dinobot from Beast Wars, if you remember that. Bitter, angry, egotistical, powerful, but when push comes to shove, usually ends up siding with the good guys. Those characters that test the faith of the good guys.
that’s mama luigi to you
1. I am so thrilled the know that a commercial spoofed the "Car 54 Where Are You?" theme song XD.
2. Watching Mr. Martinet doing the voices is an absolute delight.
3. I appreciate all the fun trivia and highlights for Luigi that I had never seen before. Thank you kindly!
lookin forward to one day hearing the jester backstory. luigi represent
