A mysterious light shines atop Star World…
Mario sets out with Toadette to investigate... and very quickly finds trouble.
Our heroes must fight their way through to the top of the center mountain… But more than mere Koopas stand in their way…

Episode 50 is probably my second-longest video yet. And it was indeed a pain to pull it all together, but I sincerely hope you all enjoy it!

    Make sure to check out the additional videos. One will post right after this one and three more later this week. Hope you like the videos!
  • The transition from the map to the level, Peachette, the crumpled Koopa, the launch star, it's so well done!
  • I just love Toadette partner up with Mario just like the party crew members from Paper Mario.
  • This makes me want to play a paper version of Super mario Galaxy.
  • @Oceane1803
    The references to the way all the various Paper Mario games, like SPM's doors, Origami King's transitions... It's great ! And the animation is incredible ! And the writing really feels like a Paper Mario game too ^^
  • @cosmogor
    omg that transformation sequence was so good!!! really impressive
  • @Berryrrst
    I was literally yelling at my laptop screen about everything happening because this video is so cool! Man, that Peachette transformation caught me so off guard that I screamed especially hard at that scene. You've completely outdone yourself!
  • @RoyKoopa9949
    Dude a six minute video?!?!? That’s insanely cool. This one is like the most paper Mario yet! It actually feels like a scene straight from a new game. That’s how spot on it is. This must have required an insane amount of effort and I respect that! Keep on keeping on. Also I thought of Metal Mario as the main villain of a new Mario game for my own fan fiction so it’s cool we had the same thinking in regards to that.
  • These animations really do fill the void of there not being a new Paper Mario game for so long.
  • @gamebitz7397
    Mario: The star of the show! He’s teamed up with Toadette to find out what’s going on at Star Road! With his trusty hammer, there’s nothing he can’t do! Toadette: This cheery toad girl is ready for anything (sometimes). She’s teamed up with Mario to uncover the strange happenings at Star Road. She can even use her Super Crown to become Peachette! Super Koopas: Troublesome Koopas with magic capes. They fly around and swoop down to attack innocent passersby. Metal Mario: The mysterious metallic clone of Mario. Who is he? Where did he come from? Why is he attacking? Ask questions later, because he’s ready to fight!
  • These just keep getting better and better, the movements feel so fluid! Well done!
  • I love the references you put in your videos, like the opening being the star world from super Mario world
  • @LankyMcSwanky
    I just watched the two videos! I came back to this one because it's so great. Easily the longest and greatest animation you've made so far, what a perfect number 50!
  • @Danominator
    I feel like I need to reiterate one of my previous comments and stayed again how well your animations combine multiple aspects of the entire franchise. This episode in particular feels like a really nice celebration of the series. Congratulations on one full year on YouTube!
  • @jadonh
    Oh my goodness… Everything about that was beautifully crafted! (For lack of a better term, haha!) Everything from the fight scene to the platforming to Toadette’s transformation was just incredible! It’s been amazing to watch your videos since “The Instant Oasis Tablet”. I believe that’s the first one I got recommended a long time ago. I hope you continue to make these videos, as they’re always a joy to watch!
  • I’m so proud! Everything about this was awesome! The Peachette transformation, the Launch Star, even Metal Mario!
  • @Kattsunee
    The crouching luigi was real sneaky I love it
