I’ve been re-watching SMG4 lately and looking back into the Mario franchise, something tells Me that the Mario Bros kinda have a secret type when it comes to having a crush (or at least, in this case, being friends with another person).
Comparing to both Nintendo and SMG4, here’s what I have a little headcanon about the Mario Bros in Both Different Universes;
Mario often catches up and rescues Girls who are captured by Male Animal-Like Beasts (example; Bowser kidnaps Peach, DK kidnaps Pauline, and even SMG4! Francis kidnaps Meggy) where’s Mario is the one who has to face up those Guys just to save the Damsel in Distress (yet, he is even thanked at the end of it).
Luigi is often mainly a shy yet timid guy who has secret courage yet he mainly acts like a Malewife most of the time, especially when it would be either Daisy or Saiko (who are both Girlbosses).
So what’s my personal fan-theory of their taste in Women? My guess is that Mario is into Damsel In Distresses while Luigi is into Girlbosses.
I dunno if that could be true or not but that’s just my own headcanon right there if I got the patterns right.
