There were three cartoons based on the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' franchise.
First was ''[[The Super Mario Bros Super Show]]'', a 1989 animated/live action [[
Saturday morning cartoons titled ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World (
on DVD. See also ''[[Super Mario Bros the Parody Series]]'' for the [[Abridged Series]] version.
Line 10:
For tropes unique to one of the three shows, see their respective articles.
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Peach not only still has her old American name, but her appearance is a fairly good direct rendition of her early game sprite: a more Daisy-like redhead.
* [[The Anime of the Game]]: To the extent that sound effects and background from the shows' game (Super Show counting for SMB 1 and 2) are used extensively.
Line 22:
* [[Christmas Episode]]: "Koopa Klaus" and "The Night Before Cave Christmas."
* [[Circling Birdies]]: Super Stars in this case, and Mario [[Invincibility Power-Up|uses it to his advantage]].
* [[Clumsy Copyright Censorship]]: The song covers in SMBSS and a few SMB3 episodes being replaced by instrumentals from the latter series, most notably an instrumental version of "Mega Move," an original song created by DIC that first appeared in the ''[[
* [[Composite Character]]: King Koopa, the cartoons' version of Bowser, appears to be a mix of both Bowser and Wart (especially in the ''Super Show'').
* [[Cowardly Sidekick]]: Luigi, and later Yoshi.
** This became canon as of [[
* [[Daddy's Little Villain]]: Kootie Pie.
* [[A Day in
** Especially notable is that Luigi is the ''only'' one of the four heroes to be in "Life's Ruff".
* [[
* [[Inevitable Waterfall]]: In Mama Luigi episode.
* [[Loud of War]]: One episode had a group of cute little aliens saving the day by using their kazoo-like noses to hum a tune which drove King Koopa ''nuts'' and forced him to flee. The song they sang? The theme of ''[[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|The Legend of Zelda]]!''
Line 37:
* [[Off-Model]]: Every. Freaking. Thing. There are countless animation errors, all around sloppy animation quality, and some blatant inconsistencies between drawings! (note, for example that in the "Night Before Cave Christmas" episode, [[Your Size May Vary|that Mario inexplicably grows large between cuts when he's talking to Oogtar about being "good".]] And the ''Super Mario World'' cartoon is probably the least frequent offender.)
** The intro meanwhile has some very good animation that one can think it wasn't for the show.
* [[Plot Induced Stupidity]]: At no point in the series does Koopa [[Breath Weapon|breathe]] [[Playing
* [[Quicksand Sucks]]: A few times the good guys got stuck in it and needed someone to help them out, [[Gameplay and Story Segregation|apparently forgetting they have the ability to hop out of the quicksand]].
* [[Royals Who Actually Do Something]]: Princess Toadstool. Possibly King Koopa too, though it's arguable if he's a real king since his crown appears to be taped together.
Line 43:
* [[Spoiled Brat]]: <ref> Wendy O.</ref> Koopa, to the max.
* [[Super Not-Drowning Skills]]
* [[Villain Exit Stage Left]]: King Koopa frequently pulls this off in the ''Super Show'', usually by way of a warp-generating potion (based on the doors to Sub-Con in the American ''[[Super Mario Bros
* [[
