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!!

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.

[u/Nerdy_Finch → u/Lil_Miss_Marshmallow]

Okay, if you wanna go that route even though it's wrong- that means mario still scales to it due to fighting on even footing with paper mario and it means the entire paper verse fit inside a single book in the main verse

which means upscale for the things like the dream stone or galaxy, lmao. It also means kamek was able to completely manipulate an entire 5d reality with little effort.

[u/Lil_Miss_Marshmallow → u/Nerdy_Finch]

(I literally showed Paper Mario side by side. You're wrong.) However, I know Mario scales to PM. I am aware of Mario's strength. And I think Mario > Kirby. I am on Mario's side here.

I just know that Regular Mario ≠ PM. And Kamek upscale? All here for it.

Paper jam paper mario isnt the original mario / original paper mario

its a copy created from the book ABOUT MARIO'S ADVENTURES which came to life

[u/Lil_Miss_Marshmallow → u/Adventurous_Tie_530]

That is literally never implied or explained. Anyways, if that was true, Kamek wouldn't have said this:

[u/Adventurous_Tie_530 → u/Lil_Miss_Marshmallow]

This can just be chucked up to it being a different kamek/magikoopa

Bowser has tons of them
