my issue with movie peach isn't that she's not feminine because obviously she is, and anyone sensible already knows "she's too feminist" or whatever is dumb. my issue is they made her into every generic cool serious surface-level "strong female character" action girl in a group of all men whose only character trait is "capable" that they've been writing over and over and over for the past ten years. I genuinely feel like they erased any personality she had past her appearance in favor of the single superficial female character type men tend to write when they want to be feminist and "modern." I'm not saying she shouldn't be capable and she shouldn't be cool or fight things because (I love paper mario) those things already are a part of her personality. this point is difficult to make with all of the "they're erasing feminine dainty proper women" takes because that's not what I'm taking about at all. I've seen people say if they wanted a character like this daisy was right there, but I wouldn't switch her character over to this trope either. daisy's LOUD and energetic and fun and the subdued woman whose role is being picking up the men's slack doesn't really fit her either (although I agree the two of them together would balance each other out (and it'd be nice if there were two women and they could interact)). it's exactly what I'd expect from a movie like this so I don't know why I complain, but I wish they would've done her differently. the character mario is about the whimsy but so is peach

I think I once heard Charles Martinet say at a panel, the script for Mario Teaches Typing 2 had Mario telling the player negative things if they failed but he himself changed the lines and instead said things like “That was great, but I know you can do even better” and “That wasn’t as fast as last time..let’s try again” because in his mind he had already decided that he wanted Mario to be always loving

Have some doodles and quick headcanons for Princess Daisy! I love Daisy, she’s probably my favorite Nintendo Princess aside from Pauline. owo ANYWAY! Those headcanons!
-Rough, tough, energetic with the attitude to match, Daisy is the rowdy crown princess of Sarasaland. With her parents still in power, Daisy is not the one in charge of the kingdom, which suits her just fine quite frankly! While she doesn’t mind being a princess she’s far more interested in other endeavors, especially sports, so this allows her to fullstop pursue a career outside her role as future queen. Even if she were the official ruler of her kingdom, Daisy still wouldn’t give up her pursuit of sports, luckily for her Sarasaland is hella big on them.
-She is very sporty and a proficient athlete, although she in particular has a rising career in boxing. As she currently is, Daisy is near undefeated in her weight class and she’s aiming for the international title.
-Daisy is one of Peach’s oldest friends; they met when they were teenagers on diplomatic business and became sudden friends when Daisy offered a sad Peach a hug outta the blue in hopes of making her feel better. They’re been besties ever since, so close they consider each other family. The two balance each other out quite well; Peach tempers Daisy’s rowdiness while Daisy helps Peach feel more comfortable in being casual. The spunky princess is the source of Peach’s evergrowing love for video games as well. uwu

And there ya go! I’d put more but I actually gotta head out soon so if you have any questions feel free to ask! Other than that, I hope you enjoy the art!! owo
