Enjoy that last tidbit because I believe it will be the last. I am extremely tempted to deactivate/delete this blog soon. I’ll leave it up for a little bit longer but after that it’s probably hasta la vista.

I’ll need to make some corrections to some misinforming “facts” I got wrong or incomplete on here but other than that, I’ll be declaring this blog dead (as if it wasn’t already lol) due to my faded interest in the series. Thanks for playing along folks! Follow my main if you care for my personal ramblings and most importantly, play Psychonauts !!
Which Mother character is mischaracterized the most? (In side media, fan works, etc.)
Ninten
Ana
Ness
Paula
Tony
Porky
Lucas
Claus
Kumatora
(Other - please comment or tag!)
Trying to figure something out for science (metaphorical). I couldn’t put everyone here so I only put the ones I’ve personally seen mischaracterized or misrepresented somehow. Feel free to ask how so, haha. One of the clicks for “other” was me to see the results progress. Please ignore that one. Ends on April 11th!
Hi folks, I'm back! And I come bearing another theory post. Tonight's episode: Magicant in Mother 3 and why Tanetane island is a manifestation of Lucas's.
It's rather common knowledge that Magicant, both of them, are a manifestation of one's subconcious, with Smash 4 stating "[Magicant is] a magical world in Mother and EarthBound, brought to life by the memories of certain characters." and Mother Encyclopedia stating "You get the feeling you've stumbled into somebody's dream. Going inside another person's slumberland shouldn't be possible, yet this country is like the replicant (the reproduction) of a dream."
However, with the mind, comes one's fears. As Ness's Nightmare and regrets over his previous battles, Buzz Buzz, Porky, and the Flying Men (if they die) appear in Ness's Magicant, likewise, Maria's Magicant contains the Forgotten Man and similar regrets over the Flying Men. Mother Encyclopedia even makes this clear by saying this about the final stretch of the Crystal Caverns: "With strange apparitions flying all about, if there were ever such a thing as the bottom of the world, it would, without a doubt, look like this desolation of immeasurable loneliness. You can't help but think to yourself, is this really how lonely Queen Mary's sorrow is?"
Magicant is known for really showing the mental state of its owners, but this series stable is oddly not present in Mother 3.
Or is it?
It's not really clear if Magicant is a physical location in either case, but it is clear that they have some form of tangibility given how both Ninten and Ness can bring back items from Magicant to the real world. In Ness's case, it is most clearly a mental location as otherwise, he's in Fire Springs. He didn't move in any extreme way between passing out and waking up, so that one is mental, but Maria's is a little more debatable. There seems to be no tunnel between the entrance and exit caves to her Magicant, and yet, Ninten is able to enter one, pass through Magicant, and exit though the other tunnel. Perhaps her Magicant is placed over the otherwise invisible tunnel in some way or it's just some form of teleportation, but it's clear that Magicants can have some interaction to the real world. Cue the theory.
I think Tanetane Island is some manifestation of Lucas's Magicant. Now, not the regular island itself, but the state it's in under the mushrooms' effect is, in essence, Lucas's Magicant leaking out into the real world. With his mind in an altered state, he doesn't control certain cognitive abilities, and with this, it just may include his ability to confine his Magicant. Let's go over the points: does the altered Tanetane reflect on Lucas's mental state? Absolutely. It is rife with his fears and some of his team's fears. (Side note: this may be some kind of telepathy gone wrong where this might even be everyone's minds contributing a little.) On top of that, altered Tanetane is bizarrely colored as the previous two Magicants were with surreal elements, similarly to a dream. The island may be real, but it's modifications are not. This, I believe, is Lucas's (and possibly Duster or Kumatora's) Magicant. It would certainly bring things full circle.
Maintagging for reach: I’m thinking of transferring this blog to a new owner. Please let know know if you’d like to be the new owner!
Howdy, folks! Oops! Guess who disappeared again? But I was cooking something… I made a Discord server intended for Mother fans to share their fanworks in! Art, fics, fangames, all fair game! We intend for it to be a chill but relatively mature space, so if you like the sound of that, c’mon in!
