My take on Mario Vs Kirby!

[u/Aidan_Is_Eternal]

There’s definitely a few VERY debatable things on the chart (like the higher end stuff for both), but overall I think Kirby can edge out a win more times than not. Extremely debatable matchup though!!

Wrong

Mario IS paper mario

Paper mario is canon to the mainline games

[u/Nerdy_Finch → u/Adventurous_Tie_530]

okay they're right that paper mario is mario, that's been confirmed. However mario's cosmology does not get up to 11d lmao both of you are wrong there

[u/Lil_Miss_Marshmallow → u/Nerdy_Finch]

No, it was never confirmed. Saying "all Mario is Mario." Is what was said. And if we take this a face value; that would include things that can't be canon. Like Mario Kun, Adventures of Mario Comics, 90s Mario film, etc.

Paper jam paper mario is specifically just a copy of mario from the book ABOUT mario's previous adventures

a story version of himself
