"I want a lollipop!" | ||
— Mama Luigi's first words in the Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures series.
|
Mama Luigi was the clone of Luigi, a former adventurer and plumber. He was one of the protagonists of Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures until his death in The Loss of a R****d. He played a central role in that series in that he was the one who defeated Bowser, starting the whole adventure.
A clone of Mario's brother, Luigi, he was slightly taller, had more brownish colored hair, and very unintelligent in general compared to his original counterpart. He was known for his obnoxious horsy laugh, and he also liked using a giant marker as a melee weapon. He also tortures people for touching his nickel.
Mama Luigi was killed off in the premiere of the second season of MLSDA, The Loss of a Retard, due to his voice actor, Zeke, having to move away with his brother Luke to Colorado. After his death, his character was briefly brought back several times in several episodes, such as in The Final Battle, and in the 2017 remake of Toad's Mistake!, with Zeke returning to play the character once more. He reappears as a ghost in the Luigi's Mansion series.
The death of Mama Luigi upset many fans, as many had loved the character for his humor. Many fans went as far as to unsubscribe from Logan, causing Logan to leave YouTube for a while. In season three, he was played by Lovell and Pablo.
Plush[]
This version of the Luigi plush is from the toy company Kellytoy (specifically the 2001 version). The size of the plush is the 9" variant. The plush itself is often used in plush collections and can go for high prices on websites like eBay. These plushies could be won or bought from arcades and carnivals. Kellytoy's Nintendo plushies started showing up in 2001, though, somewhere around 2015-2017, all of these plushies were won, which means they are no longer found in arcades.
Personality[]
Mama Luigi's personality tends to be a mixed bag, as he is depicted to be very ditzy and unintelligent. and stupid,
Although his thought process remains unknown, he has a history of violence, such as kidnapping, abusing, and assaulting Mario's true brother, Luigi, after he failed to win the Main Character Judging contest. He kept it a secret until this was revealed in the second season of Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures. He also assaulted and murdered Toad by putting him in the microwave because he earlier touched his nickel as seen in Toad's Mistake and its remake.
In spite of this, Mama Luigi has shown to be rather charismatic in an incredibly wacky way, coupled with his fair share of jokes and insane eccentricities that makes him out to be quirky and/or unpredictable. He is also shown to be very nice and has very few enemies.
Weapons[]
- The Magic Marker (A.K.A. The Super Sharpie): Mama Luigi uses a blue marker to "draw mustaches" on people's faces in a fight.
- Crowbar: Mama Luigi makes someone fall and smashes their head with a crowbar, as seen in Toad's Mistake!
- Toilet Seat: In Toad's Mistake! (2017), Mama Luigi puts Toad under the toilet seat and bangs it on his head.
- Microwave: In Toad's Mistake, Mama Luigi kills Toad in the microwave.
Talents[]
Mama Luigi possesses a few talents that compensate for his unintelligence.
- Fighting: Mama Luigi can hold his own in a fight. He nearly took down Bowser without the magic marker and beat him when he had magic powers with ease. He also beat up Luigi and Toad with little to no effort.
- Stalling: Mama Luigi can drag on a fight for hours.
- Video Games: Mama Luigi is skilled in the game Mario Super Sluggers.
- Smarts: Although he is shown to be very unintelligent, there have been instances where he may be smarter than he shows. For example, he was able to secretly beat up Luigi during game reviews without Mario's knowledge.
- Yo Mama jokes.
- The Force: Mama Luigi used the Force to get the magic marker.
- Endurance: Mama Luigi has survived things that would kill other people.
- Singing: Mama Luigi sang "If I Were A Boy" perfectly (although he may have been lip syncing).
- Bravery: Mama Luigi has not been afraid. He charged at Bowser when he had a gun. And all Luigi had was a bomb on his chest.
- Murdering: Mama Luigi has killed Toad because he touched his nickel.
Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures[]
In the first season, while Mama Luigi is supposed to be the deuteragonist, it is arguable he was the real main character because he took down Bowser and started the whole adventure. However, it turned out he was the tertiary antagonist as well, having kidnapped the real Luigi and replaced him, revealing that several random things he had done in videos had actually been him hurting Luigi. Afterward, he had imprisoned Luigi in a cocoon-like sack, in order to, as he put it, "turn into a pretty butterfly." Mario, Luigi, and Peach all went to court in order to bring justice to Mama Luigi's (stupid) crimes. However, the trial turned out to be a complete waste of time, with Toad being Mama Luigi's lawyer, Judge Officer Goodman being easily gullible, as well as Yoshi defending him by pointing out the good he had done (i.e., defeating Bowser and saving Peach). In spite of this, Mama Luigi was given a day in prison for kidnapping, but it was more of a reward than a punishment, as Bubbles was his college roommate and now cellmate. After the second season, Mario took the mantle of the main character, due to the death of Mama Luigi.
In season 3, Mario goes through many dimensions and finds a smart Mama Luigi. With his help, he travels to another dimension. The real Mama Luigi was revived and made his comeback when Mario returns to the right dimension in the third episode.
Relationships[]
Mario[]
Mama Luigi considered Mario to be his brother (even though he technically does share DNA). Although they have opposite personalities, they act as each other's foils, smart and cool. Mario, by far, was the saddest about his death. Although Mama Luigi does some stupid and smart stuff, he is well-intent on helping Mario, such as when he started the adventure by paying Bowser to get Peach. Another example was when he bought a Nintendo DSi for Mario to make him happy for his success.
Status: Best friends
Bowser[]
Bowser is Mama Luigi's worst enemy. Mama Luigi is known as the only one who can beat Bowser.

This meant there was an Alternate Mama Luigi, so Mario found him, and he helped Mario start his journey. Unlike Mama Luigi back in Mario's dimension, this version is highly intelligent. and saved Mario,

Trivia[]
- Mama Luigi returned in the Toad's Mistake! remake when Zeke, his original voice actor, visited Logan for a short time.
- The SuperMarioLogan Movie! would have been his final appearance, and Zeke's final time portraying him.
- However, due to the lawsuit by Nintendo, the film was rewritten, thus removing Mama Luigi's part and making the Toad's Mistake remake his final appearance.
- When Logan killed off Mama Luigi, many people unsubscribed due to negative backlash, as he was one of the most popular characters. This, alongside his poor health at the time, lead Logan to quit YouTube for a while throughout 2009 to 2010.
- It's unknown how Mama Luigi attended college with Bubbles though it's possible he has some of Luigi's past memories inside his mind and Luigi was actually roommates with Bubbles.
- Mama Luigi and Rosalina (though the latter had returned since late 2019) are the only characters whose removal from the series was due to their actors becoming unavailable for filming. All other characters were recast once their voice actor became unavailable or were removed due to the popularity of Jeffy and Bowser Junior. Any subsequent attempts to recast Mama Luigi were met with polarizing reception, leading Logan to fully retire him unless Zeke ever decided to come back (which he eventually did as a tribute to the Classic Era in the Toad's Mistake Remake, but not full time).
- Though most characters have died at least once, they are revived in the next video; Mama Luigi is one of the first few characters (and the only major character) to die permanently.
- Like Brooklyn T. Guy, Mama Luigi is one of the few characters who has done a Let's Play. In Mama Luigi's case, it is QWOP.
- He is the only character to play a video game on a channel not owned by Logan Thirtyacre.
- Mama Luigi is named after the series finale of Super Mario World, a cartoon produced by DiC Entertainment in 1991, which was a popular internet meme during the late-2000s, featured in many YouTube Poops.
- The plush used for Mama Luigi is the Kellytoy Luigi Plush, which is incredibly hard to find nowadays because of Mama Luigi's popularity.
- In Jeffy's New Toy, an email from Mama Luigi to Mario is seen asking him when he wants his scenes recorded, possibly hinting at SuperMarioLogan: The Movie.
- This has led to debate if he is actually dead outside of the Mario and Luigi's Stupid and Dumb Adventures series.
- Logan revealed his original plan for Season 3 of M&LSDA was Mario would eventually locate an actual time machine, albeit hunted by a villain who had other purposes in mind for it (saying Diddy Kong might've been a candidate) that would take him back in time to prevent the events of Seasons 1 and 2 and resurrect Peach, Black Yoshi, and Mama Luigi. He would've succeeded, leading to the SML Movies canon from 2011 to present day. Mama Luigi's absence since then would've been explained as he and Mario simply went their separate ways after their celebratory vacation since Bowser wouldn't have sought vengeance in The Loss of a Retard.
- Mama Luigi is apparently allergic to birds.[1]
- As Mama Luigi is a clone of Luigi, he has the same blood as Luigi, and therefore is a member of Mario's family.
