Paper Mario: Glitz or Glory

Paper Mario: Glitz or Glory is an ongoing[when?] fan fiction written by Echobreaker, a relatively obscure writer. The story happens after the epilogue of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and centers on Miles, a street rat who, by a twist of luck, earned himself a ticket to Glitzville. In the process, he meets Mario and company, and deals with his own share of troubles.

Currently[when?], it is undergoing a remaking process, but both versions can be found here.

Tropes used in Paper Mario: Glitz or Glory include:
  • Adaptation Distillation: The chapters so far seem to be consolidated.
  • Art Shift: Compared to the original, the remake's style has changed dramatically to a more descriptive third person point of view
  • Author Avatar:
    • Inverted, Echobreaker got his pseudonym from the character he created.
    • Subverted in the remake, as the name is shortened to 'Echo'.
