I think the only thing that could've made Bobby's death even wilder would've been if Olivia mistook a generic Bob-omb for Bobby, only to be told that they're all the same with no distinguishing qualities, copes by calling it Bobby, only to then watch as said Bob-omb gets launched as explosive ammunition along with hundreds of other of Bob-ombs.
...Oh wait!

There also a detail that even support the "Bobby factory made" theory:
Bomb-ombs thay explode without harm always just go in a puff of smoke and a bit of confetti. While enemy (factory made) bomb-omb's, even in past games, explode in a fiery and realistic explosion. When Bombette and Bobery explode, they do the confetti variant and return somewhat tired, almost as if these explosion make them physically exert themselfs. And they can only explode craked surfaces.
Bobby's explosion was a big fiery display, powerful enough to destroy an uncracked boulder. Maybe all Bomb-ombs CAN do these sacrificial explosions, but factory bom-omb's are made to be extra powerful, with no regards of what happens to them...
Rip Bobby

Itās still unsettling how Mario essentially breaks a dogs jaw for a finishing move with the stapler fight

Olly folding Peach into the castle is the same as skinning someone and using their skin to make a window. Yes, the entire world is made of paper so the castle, the princess, the toads and minions the all the same thing, but not all of the paper is *alive*.

Fun fact, in Japanese, the name for Bob-ombs is ćć ćøć, read as bomuhei. While Olivia's "Bobby" nickname for the one Bob-omb is ćć å¹³, also read as bomuhei. The joke is that using kanji makes it sound more like somebody's personal name. å¹³ specifically is a surname that happens to mean "commonplace"

11:48 To be fair, the child of a god sacrificing themselves to save all people from a terrible fate born from man's despair and sin and then resurrecting afterwards does fit with many of the Christian parallels that Chapter 7 holds, it just needed more build-up and juxtaposition to feel earned. And we can add Fracktail to the friendly death tally, as he's only brainwashed to fight Mario, then visibly breaks apart and dies on screen, with no hint of ever coming back.

The Paper Mistake could easily be something from a horror game; A massive hard-shelled reptile with beady red eyes, which covers itself in (still-living and very uncomfortable) stolen faces which it uses for magic attacks.

I always took it as the party member Bob-Ombs were custom models, while Bobby and his ilk were mass produced.

I know Origami King isnāt perfect but Iām glad that people are talking about how excellent and tragic this gameās story was. You made an amazing point about Olivia, I have no doubt in my mind that she 100% intended to make the wish that she did, including the implication that she would be gone too.
As innocent and naive as Olivia was, she watched that innocence completely die inside her throughout the adventure. Her friend Bobby had died for her sake, leaving her to feel as though she was at fault, she watched her world fall into utter chaos, and was then forced to essentially kill her brother by her own hands. (Olly was a monster and absolutely had to be stopped, but my point is that it must have been incredibly traumatic for her to have killed someone she once considered family.) By the end, she had seen just about everything there was to see, that innocence was long gone at that point.
I donāt often see many acknowledge it and Iām glad you mentioned that yes, there are many different ways she could have solved the issue. āI wish all the chaos caused by my brother was undoneā, āI wish all of these past tragedies could be fixedā, āI wish all the people who had passed away could come backā are just some of the few examples of alternate wishes she could have made that wouldnāt have resulted in her disappearing. However, she had specifically chosen the one where it would include her being unfolded as well. I have no doubt that she specifically wanted to put the entire tragedy behind her, and to Olivia, that meant removing herself from the picture as well. She would no longer have to bear the guilt of Bobby dying for her, she would no longer have to watch those she loves suffer as she did with him and Olly. Olivia had seen practically everything by the end of the adventure, and so, I do think this may have been how she felt it would be best to bring closure to the conflict, which is absolutely heartbreaking.
There is so much to dissect regarding Olivia and her intentions. In an era where Paper Mario had struggled with telling effective stories and establishing interesting characters, Olivia is one of the most three-dimensional (no pun intended) and well written characters the series has seen. Thereās a lot to discuss and Iām glad more people are talking about it

Great video! I really enjoyed the dark aspects series a lot!
One detail I would want to add is the implication of why Bobby remembered his past when seeing the fireworks. All of these explosions, the loud banging noises, the quick burst of light... all of that is exactly what happened all around him during the initial Gooper Blooper attack on the Princess Peach. All the Bob-ombs who were on the ship were fighting it and trying to save the other passengers by throwing themselves at the monster, willfully intending to explode to cause it the most damage. I think it is strongly implied that the fireworks at Shogun Studios made Bobby have a flashback to those exact moments in a PTSD kinda way.
And let's not forget: Bobby was also throwing himself at the Blooper with a fully lit fuse before it got knocked off. So he already made the decision to sacrifice himself for others, even before meeting Mario. And when the situation with the boulder happened, he had another opportunity to follow through with that decision he made back then. A chance to change something for the better. To make an impact.
RIP Bob-omb a.k.a. Bobby š£š¤

I always say how King Olly is essentially a more serious version of Zant.

0:47 lol mario just standing there with that expression while not doing anything is hilarious
he looks like he's judging the toad for even being in that situation

i watched my sister play this game blind and had to keep a straight face when she responded to bobby falling off the bridge with "whoops! guess he's dead. -1 party member" (entirely joking, she didn't think they'd actually cross that line).

Itās really crazy how these adventures look so cutesy for the player but are consistently portrayed as horrifying for those actually involved. Itās something you donāt really think about, and Iām glad thereās a video about it.

I think the paper machete goomba slowly turning around was a resident evil reference especially with the chunks on his face
35 |
I love that they consider Toads with human-like proportions as "horrifying" and "disgusting." So true. XD

I like how many unexpected and horrifying instant Game Overs there are in this game.
I especially like the one in the Origami Castle, where the floor falls out and Luigi falls. If you jump down after him you'll get a game over... But Luigi returns later on in the story, implying he was able to escape a fate that Mario was unable to in that same situation.

This game is so good and I wish it got more love.

I always figured that Bobby didn't come back because he used his friend's fuse instead of his own. Since it technically wasn't part of his body. Either that or since the boulder wasn't cracked, he had to use more force than your standard explosion to destroy it.
