Look Im not the first person to review Lugis Toy Adventure nor will I be the last. I dont expect to bring much new to the ongoing analysis that takes place on the daily with this anime. So instead I want to share what this anime means to me on a personal level so dont expect any objective stances. If we are looking at it objectively then sure it may not be perfect but is art really the strive for perfection? I think not. Art is about feelings making the viewer feel some type of way and this anime of legend does this in spades. So without further ado her is my dissection of Luigis Toy Adventure and the impact it has had on my life. I didnt come from such a great home. I was the middle child which naturally meant that my family hated me. Whenever I played my nintendo wii will my older sibling I was always player 2. Naturally this scarred me even to this day as being player 2 is no good afterall. If you will so let me indulge I wish to quote one K.M. Weiland and her book creating character arcs to further my point as she says Creating character arcs isnt just about reaching a goal but allowing luigi to shine in the spotlight. Sadly her book was seen as troublesoom radical and too bold for its time by critics but I beg to differ. This book meant alot to me and there is a specific few words in that quote which I think you may recognise as important to my current discussion that being shine in the spotlight. This is a subtle reference to the best mario game: Super Mario Sunshine which you guessed it has alot of water in the game. Water is usually assocaited with the colour dark blue which also just so happens to be the colour of bowser in the boxart of mario bros 3... Coincidence? Probably but lets keep going. So now that we see clearly sun tzus intentions with his book creating character arcs you may be asking how this relates to the anime in question. Well to answer that I believe we need to go back to 1948. A random year at first you may be thinking but luigi wasnt made until after that time keep this in mind for later Now who is luigi mario? Is he a plumber? A ghost hunter? Green Mario? A fiend? No. For in essence Luigi is me luigi is us. Luigi is the player 2 we see in the world. Everytime we lost in mario kart or failed university we were luigi. Luigi is a show of all our failings a pathetic failure of a mario that cant even fix a pipe. But is that all? Is luigi really doomed to this fate? Are we doomed to this fate? Yes. All this to say that luigis stop motion toy adventure is a good show that teaches us that we will fail we will chase that mushroom and we will die trying. BUT and this is the most important part of this review. Mario will always come to the rescue. We cant do anything since we are player 2. BUT player 1 mario mario can do anything and that is what this movie teaches us. That we are pathetic but mario isnt. So next time you play player 2 in halo 5 just know that you are doing something great you are being a great verhicle to help player 1 grow. You will never achieve anything but mario will. And maybe if you are a good enough player 2 you shall also achieve your dreams through dying and being reborn a new. For luigi is all of our hopes. Nonexistent. Luigi doesnt struggle he accepts which is actually what the stop motion style of the play shows us that we have all the strings to hold us back we cant do anything. Luigi is a metaphor for the colour green. So with all that being said is Luigis toy adventure a good ova? Yes is it a good spiderman movie? No. But at the end of the day green is a good colour and that is ok. Life is full of failure and thats ok we are all fated for failure and that is ok. If you read all this then you above all else are destined for failure. Thank you all the player 2s of the metaverse for reading this and I look forward to seeing luigi spiral into the cosmos. Also if you are skipping to the end of this review then shame on you. I hope this review was impactful to you all. Merry Luigi Mario TLDR: Luigis Toy Adventure is a thrilling journey like none Ive seen before or evermore. It combines MMO mechanics like grinding and weapons and fuses it with fun slice of life RPG mechanics like grinding and food. Luigis toy adventure brings together family and proves that true love is real and that the attacks of 1975 were an inside job.
