Why are his proportions so different? What's the explanation the story will provide? Because the default assumption is that he is simply a mutant fucking freak.
>>378441204
He is from Mushroom Kingdom like everyone else, this Brooklyn shit was introduced by americans and their own lore of what the Mario universe is supposed to be.
Mario is of normal human proportions, just stylized. That means if you remove the stylization from the "humans" he's looking at you'll find the truth that they are horribly distorted monsters, impossibly tall and thin, mockeries of human beings. Mario is afraid.
>>378441204
He's Italian
there is no difference. the suits are just very tight.
he a fuckig mario
>>378441204
New Donk City isn't Brooklyn.
It's an urban setting that mimics our world.
Everybody there wheres the same grey suits.
>>378441204
Manlets aren't human.
They look different to you? Are you feeling alright OP?
>>378441376
> implying this is not cannon
>>378441204
the game is saying that Mario is from a cartoon "real world" and he's visiting an interpretation our reality that's not his own

Literally a lie

Oh OK didn't realize that the pic in the OP is a picture of actual reality (?).
Also there is no evidence that your silly explanation is true. You're posting your cognitive dissonance to justify the retardation of the setting.
tl;dr STOP fucking buttposting me, fag

He's born in the Mushroom Kingdom.
It's like the girl on Planetes that was born on the Moon, she grew abnormally tall since the lack of gravity changed how her bones formed.
Why do you think most everything in the Mushroom Kingdom, except the Princesses and Bowser are short and stubby little things.
>>378442074
that doesn't have as much meme potential is "Mario 06 lmao"
>>378441204
Think about it like this, he is human but he's from a different planet/dimension/whatever where humans look completely different.
Cringe. Won't buy it simply because of the mixing of regular proportioned humans and Mario.
Why do people care about things in Mario games that aren't "How fun is it to jump" and "How difficult are the jumping challenges"?
>>378442271
I get people being ironic for jokes/memes but I'm shocked that there are dumb people who didn't get that "oh Mario is from another world" shit.
Do those people consume other forms of media?
>>378442074
>obvious "different world/dimension/universe"
>no explanation of why Mario is there and why he's so different even though he's canonically Human.
If everyone was as indifferent, lazy and dumb as you, we'd never have progressed beyond the stone age.
>>378442115
I said it's an interpretation of our reality, it says New Donk City on the signs
Mario is from Brookly, New York, so it's clearly not the same dimension
>>378442440
IT'S A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE WHERE THESE "HUMANS" ARE 10 FEET TALL YOU FUCKING MORON REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

You could just wait until the game is out.
Mario is simply dead
>>378442440
>>no explanation of why Mario is there and why he's so different even though he's canonically Human.
what about the fucking magical flying hat ship
>>378441204
stop overthinking fictional characters you sperg
>>378442440
the answer is already in the text you quoted and somehow still fail to see the answer
DEEPEST FUCKING LORE
>>378441204
Why would they even disgrace Mario by putting him in an ugly and filthy city like that
>>378442353
Because it has a deep and intrisicate lore that must be discussed upon.

Is New Donk City an edit or did Nintendo actually name something that?

It's the real name of the level.

Stupid Japs.
>>378441204
Hey OP watch a movie called Roger Rabbit and that will explain everything. Hint: Mario is a videogame character, and in the canon of the image/game you posted, he is a video game character outside of a videogame/in the real world.
>>378441376
>He is from Mushroom Kingdom like everyone else
Jesus christ is this what children actually believe today!? Even the fucking animes from Japan showed Mario originally going into that world from a more grounded one. The canon changes from American to Japan, yeah, but Mario was never from the mushroom kingdom.Also Metroid can't crawl, faggot.

No. Fuck off. It's just meant to be humorous.
>>378443158
>Even the fucking animes from Japan showed Mario originally going into that world from a more grounded one.
Are you serious? The anime OVAs with Dragonball Z cameos? That shit isn't canon; whenever baby Mario is shown he is already there on the Mushroom Kingdom, meanwhile the Brookly lore states that he came over only as full grown man while working on the sewers.
>>378444183
Im sorry
>>378444120
well fine, be that way and don't play the best mario game by a mile
>>378443416
The babies were from Brooklyn, fell into Mush Kingdom, then were returned by Yoshi. Mario discovered the alternate world independently as an adult.
>>378441204
They don't either clarify why Eggman is that weird in the Sonic series.And no, Overlanders aren't canon.
>>378444078
Everyone is assuming OP's pic is from the game, but it's actually a photograph of my grandfather when he first came to America.
>>378441858
>cannon
it might as well be
its literally a disaster. thats the simplest way to put it. anyone who thought this was a good idea would be fired in a just world.
>>378444861
Sega didn't think about stylizing other humans until Unleashed.
Oh shit does this mean we will be platforming on actual construction sites?
>>378441204
What don't you dumb fucks understand about this?
The game is called Mario Odyssey, which means Journey
Mario is travelling through all kinds of different universes, that's why he looks so different
Or would you rather have it look like this?

All these fucking butt posters ITT. Mario is canonically from Brooklyn. Dismissing the 80-90s canon out of hand is absurd.
You realize that there is various media that LITERALLY STATES he is from Brooklyn?! You can't just say it doesn't count when it violates your head canon.
Here newfaggots and buttposters:
>It's the Mario Brothers and plumbing's the game
>Found the secret warp zone while working on the drain
>Lend the Princess a hand in the Mushroom Land
>Yo, you're in for a treat, so hang on to your seat
>Get ready for adventure and remarkable feats
>You'll meet Koopas, the Troopas, the Princess, and the others
>Hangin' with the plumbers, you'll be hooked on the brothers
>To da Bridge
>Musical interlude
From memory, faggots. Don't butt post at me about Mario lore.

Mario is from a city, shown in Donkey Kong. He was renamed from Jumpman to Mario by Nintendo themselves.
