Bowser then shows up and kidnaps her, leaving behind the pendant that she always wears. The next day, a little dog called Kibidango shows up at the grocery store owned by Mario and his brother Luigi (yes, they're grocers in this movie) and takes the jewel. The Mario Bros. give chase after him and wind up in the Mushroom Kingdom, where they meet the wise old Mushroom Hermit. The Hermit tells them that they've been brought to the Mushroom Kingdom to rescue Princess Peach, whom Bowser intends to marry on Friday the 13th, and save the people whom Bowser has turned into useless objects. The Mario Bros. embark on this journey, along the way gathering the [[Rule of Three\|three powerful items]] of the Super Mushroom, the Fire Flower, and the Starman, which help them in their quest. They make it to Bowser's castle just in time to [[Wedding Smashers\|crash Bowser's wedding to Peach]], Mario defeats Bowser, and {{spoiler\|it turns out that Kibidango is actually Prince Hal, Peach's previously unmentioned fiancé, much to the disappointment of Mario, who had fallen in love with the Princess himself}}. ~~----~~ ~~==== Tropes used in the movie: ====~~ * [[Affably Evil]]: Bowser seemed a pretty nice guy, [[Clingy Jealous Girl\|albeit a bit too jealous when it came to Peach]]. {{spoiler\|Heck, at the end, he is seen working with Mario [[Go-Karting with Bowser\|and liking it]].}} * [[Art Evolution]]: Luigi is designed with the taller and slimmer look he sported in the games since the U.S. version of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', but his color scheme is a bit different from his later look (he wears blue overalls and a hat with a yellow shirt in the actual film). * [[Bittersweet Ending]]: The fact that {{spoiler\|Kibidango/Prince Hal is actually Peach's fiancé [[Did Not Get the Girl\|upsets not only Mario]], but [[Ship Sinking\|also the Mario/Peach fans]].}} Needless to say, the fact that {{spoiler\|Prince Hal}} was never incorporated into the games should speak volumes about how many fans were upset by that revelation even back then, it could also explain why the movie has become so obscure, that it never had an overseas release. ** Masami Hata was the director. ~~Trust~~In meretrospect, the ending could've been much, much worse. * [[Cross-Dressing Voices]]: Amazingly, not Kibidango, but {{spoiler\|Bowser}}. [[Those Two Bad Guys\|The two Goombas]] and the Laikatu are also voiced by female actresses. * {{spoiler\|[[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Bowser at the end}} Line 20 ⟶ 19: * [[The Stinger]]: {{spoiler\|One of Mario and Luigi's regular customers walks up to the counter and is shocked to find Bowser working there.}} * [[Those Two Bad Guys]]: A pair of Goombas who continually try to impede on Mario and Luigi's progress. * [[Tohru Furuya]]: The voice of Mario. * [[Why Do You Keep Changing Jobs?]]: Despite being dressed like plumbers, Mario and Luigi run a grocery store.
