It doesn't matter how many times I experience the ending of Mother 3, it never fails to make me ugly cry. No matter how prepared I think I am, it always gets me. Such a powerful work of art.

I will defend the appearance of the magypsies in Mother 3 til the end, them looking like that is both explained in-universe and out and the fact that there's a bunch of characters in effeminate clothing with very obvious facial hair that are treated as kind, heroic and in many ways divine means a lot to me. Boiling them down to a transmisogynistic stereotype means only seeing them on the surface level imo, they're not meant to be trans women, they are explicitly not men OR women in the story of Mother 3. They are genderless, magical beings that have been protecting the island since forever and they are some of your greatest allies in the game when allies are especially sparse. There's a lot to criticize about Mother 3, including the name of these characters, but I don't think the appearance of them being painted as transmisogyny is a fair or genuine criticism, especially since I straight up know people IRL who look like them.

This mural seen in the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials in Super Paper Mario presents a very interesting piece of lore continuity between two separate timelines in the game that is never explicitly stated. While the mural at first glance simply depicts King Croacus IV, the boss of Chapter 5, with his Pure Heart, it is apparent upon closer inspection that while he is red, the flower in the mural is black. This is because it actually King Croacus I, the predecessor of the boss fought in-game.

It is established in two separate places that: -The Ancients created the Pure Hearts 1,500 years prior to the events of the game. -The Floro Sapiens have their own calendar according to which the game takes place in the year 1626. King Croacus I ruled from Year 1 to Year 496.

Cross-referencing these two gives the result that 1,500 years before the game was the year 126, within the reign of King Croacus I, so he would have been the one in possession of the Pure Heart at the time assuming the murals were made at the point where the Pure Hearts were given out to their guardians.

All of this can only be gleaned by the players cross-referencing the dates on their own instead of ever being explained in-game.

Concept artwork for Yoshi's Woolly World when it was still intended to be more similar in style to the earlier Kirby's Epic Yarn, and featured a Yoshi that was a 2D yarn outline instead of a 3D doll as in the finished game.
