Description Aww, shipping. You simply can't avoid it in a fandom. If you're the kind of person who's searching for every single piece of Super Mario fan fiction on the surface of the Internet, you'll notice that pretty much every possible combination has been made, no matter if it's straight or gay/lesbian. Here's those that particularly stand the test of time.


LUIGI x DAISY: First introduced in Mario Tennis, then hinted in Melee and Mario Kart Wii, this pairing is one of the favourites in the Mario fanbase. It's also very interesting to see how diametrically-opposed characters can work out as a potential couple (Daisy is brash and tomboyish, Luigi is shy and a bit of a punching bag).

WARIO x MONA: Wario rarely gets paired (seriously) with anyone. If there's one that stick out the most, though, it's probably this one, which seem to work alright. In the WarioWare games, Wario and Mona work with the same goals in mind, and seem to have some kind of chemistry. The apparent age gap between them doesn't seem to be much of a bother to the fans.

WALUIGI x DAISY: Waluigi first existed only to serve as a partner to Wario in Mario Tennis. He didn't grow much as a character since then, but considering Daisy was reintroduced in the series at the same time he first appeared, people like to put them in the same boat (or should we say in the same SHIP?). Waluigi is said to have a crush on Daisy, but does she reciprocate? 

TOAD x TOADETTE: Of course, because two characters of the same species yet opposed gender often appear side-by-side, people just HAVE to pair them together. On that point, some game guides hint at the fact that Toad and Toadette are siblings. That obviously won't stop people from pairing them together, but still, something feels wrong about it. And despite the fact that Toads are now considered to be a genderless species, it would be nice if Nintendo would come with more variations of female gender-role playing Toads. There's a bit of a Smurfette syndrome going on here.


(Can't get enough of that wonderful shipping? Rejoice! There's a second part HERE !)


All characters belong to Nintendo!


Update, 2018-06-23: brushed up and streamlined the descriptions a bit to reflect my current feelings on each pairing.

i agree, Toad and Todette... i've tried putting those two as a couple, but...no, it just doesn't work out, instead i put them (like you said) as bro and sis, it seems to work better, i'm going to see just what people think of toad and toadette in a sec, but i'm bound to blind myself...oh well

Makes me wonder if the Ice Climbers are related or not since you mention the Toad thing...

I see some fanart depicting them as a couple.

But with the Toad & Toadette thing going on, I wouldn't trust that.

You´re right, the only pairing that has the official looks and support is Daisy x Luigi.

But aside the Pairings and stuff, I like how you illustrated Toad. His whole Body Propotion with that pose makes the bottom part look like its banging on, like "Yeah baby yeah, I got ants in my Pants." backed up by his grin.

Maybe that is the REAL reason Toadette is frightened.

TheBourgyman In reply to Manuel-1988 [2008-08-02 03:10:23 +0000 UTC]

How can a relation between two characters be real if it's a fan comic you read on the internet? Unless you mean that Nintendo Power comic where Wario fights against Mario for the best gift for Peach?

And yeah, the point of this pic was to show fan couplings. Even though Luigi x Daisy is quasi-official now.

LOL Awesome.

I think the first 2 pairings are pretty cute, but the other 2 also don't really work in my opinion. XP
Haha. Daisy is trying to run away from Waluigi. I just love that pic. Her expression is awesome. And so is Waluigi with that rose.

And the Toads made me laugh too. LOL

I recall reading in Mona's profile in Mega Party Game$ on the Game Cube that she actually does have a crush on Wario. I'm assuming the bond is only one sided though since I haven't heard anything on Wario in that area anywhere except in a mock interview advertising Wario World and the first Wario Ware where he said he had no time for love life.

Wait, Toad and Toadette are siblings? I didn't know that. Toad's Comment made me laugh regardless.

I was cracking up at Toad's line. Just the shock on Toadette's face is priceless.

Though I defiantly fall into the group who think Toadette and Toad aren't related.

Though, on the other hand... they're Fungus so... they reproduce through spores.

But I haven't seen anything in the games that link them together. Me thinks the answer lies in Paper Mario 2, where Toadette talks alot.

TheBourgyman In reply to ArbySasini [2008-08-02 03:21:47 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I haven't seen any info about it in Paper Mario 2.

I'm starting to believe Nintendo is contradicting itself at some places regarding their relation.
