Line 63:
** When Koops is reunited with his father after the first dungeon, he says "Everyone thought your game was over!" This may have been an example at the time, but [[Retcon|it no longer remains so.]] With the release of [[Super Paper Mario]], the common term for death in-universe has become [[Game Over]].
* [[Breather Level]]: Chapter 6, for the most part. It's more puzzle-oriented than battle-oriented (since you spend most of it on the Excess Express and all), but it does have a "dungeon" portion with some fairly tough enemies.
* [[Broken Bridge]]: The first time Mario tries to go to the west part of Rogueport, he (accidentally) steps on Zess T's contact lense; she is naturally upset and [[Dronejam| decides to block his path to that part of town]] until he replaces it. The store will not have one for sale until you finish chapter one, so the west part of Rogueport is inaccessable until then.
* [[But Thou Must!]]: After catching the Yoshi egg in Glitzville, Mario is given an option to, instead of free it, say, "Let there be hot dogs!" Picking this option will simply result in Mario's partner scolding him and freeing the egg.
** Immediately afterward, Mario is given [[Blatant Lies|an option]] to bring the egg with him or not. If he says no, his partner immediately changes his mind.
Line 247 ⟶ 248:
* [[Mood Whiplash]]: Going from Grodus {{spoiler|essentially killing TEC in front of Peach}} to another Bowser sequence.
* [[Mook Bouncer]]: The Boos in Creepy Steeple. If you let too many of them latch on to you, they'll throw you outside.
* [[Mook Medic]]: Or rather, Boss Medic, Kammy acting as this for Bowser when you face him in the Palace of Shadow.
* [[Mr. Exposition]]: Professor Frankly, who fills you in on the places that the Crystal Stars point you towards. And like Goombario in the first game, Goombella's Tattle ability has her fill you in on places you visit, people you talk to, and enemies you fight.
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Not to the extent that she is in, say, the ''Strikers'' games or ''Smash Bros'', but Peach ''does'' have to strip naked at one part of the game (while invisible, but still!) and gets a [[Shower Scene]] if you interact with the bathtub in her room. Flurrie is another example for the [[Chubby Chaser]] crowd, since she's a well-endowed [[Big Beautiful Woman]] with [[Jiggle Physics]].
Line 317 ⟶ 319:
* [[Sunglasses at Night]]: The Dark Koopas and Shady Koopas (this is actually [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] by Goombella when she wonders why they wear sunglasses in the depths of a cave).
* [[Surprise Creepy]]: In particular, the final boss is a pretty jarring development in a Mario-branded game.
* [[Supreme Chef]]: [[Punny Name| Zess T]]; bring her the right ingredients and she can cook up some potent recoverey and buff items.
* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]:
** Several of Mario's party members in this game are functionally identical to the ones in the first game. This is most obvious with party members that are the same species, such as Goombario and Goombella, or Kooper and Koops.
