[@gavinfox7216]

Three big things I noticed that were missed. - In the first game, Bowser turns most of the toads into bricks, which could range from mass mutilation, to genocide if they died from the transformation. - As stated in Super Mario World, the Yoshis found throughout the levels where put there forcefully by Bowser after being stuffed into eggs. Mass kidnapping. - We’ve seen from Paper Mario and the Mario Movie that Bob-ombs are sentient beings with intelligence and emotions. We can also see from various cannons, dispensers, and pipes spread across the Mario universe that Bob-ombs are most likely manufactured by Bowser. This means that Bowser deliberately manufactures and deploys an entire race of sentient beings with the intent that they die in an attempt to blow up Mario. Don’t know what charge that would be, but I’m guessing a death sentence. This also applies to any game where Bullet Bills detonate after a short time.

[@Nabroskies]

I’m pretty sure it’s just boss battles

[@TMScientist]

He also forgot the Cloud Kingdom fight in Odyssey. Also, even though the Broodals did also all the robbery and battles against Mario, these could still be levelled at Bowser as HE hired them for those services.

[@masedaace5473]

Probably only mutilation for the Toads. The spell is undone after he's beaten, and, in spite of the claims, none of them die. According to the manual, Mario punching blocks frees the Toads, hence why he gets coins from them as rewards. Don't ask why blocks still give coins afterwards, its never explained. He also should have multiple charges for attempting to usurp the throne, since that was the primary motivation for kidnapping Peach in most of the games. He later does it because he seems to have become attracted to his hostage.

[@danemr6808]

Technically since Bowser is the leader of a militaristic kingdom, assuming there is a formal declaration of war, most of these "crimes" are allowed wartime activities. As for the war crimes... it really depends. In Super Mario Galaxy, many toads were shown carrying weapons so it could be argued to be a valid military target if brought to a court of international law. It might be a stretch but people have got away with far greater acts of destruction on non-military targets. The new galaxy thing is a bit weirder, and I don't think we have any applicable laws.

A few things that I think should be brought up: - The instruction manual for Super Mario Bros 1 states that Bowser used black magic to turn the residents of the Mushroom Kingdom into stone, bricks, and horsehair plants, so that'll probably be Mass Mutilation. - The first seven Bowsers in Super Mario Bros 1 & the first two Bowsers in Super Mario 3D Land are just regular enemies disguised as Bowser, so I think Bowser would only get charged for the final encounters against him in both games. - You missed all of 3D World and just did Bowser's Fury instead. (Kidnapping x7, Reckless Driving x2, Aggravated Assault x3, First Degree Murder) - Also I feel like the Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario games should count in a way.

Actually, the first 7 Bowser fights in the original Super Mario Bros were just his minions in disguise. So Bowser would only get 1 count of aggravated assault and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for that game. The same applies with the first 2 Bowser fights of Super Mario 3D Land, which would mean that Bowser would only get 2 charges of aggravated assault and arson for that game, because there are 2 fights with the real Bowser. Also, in the main game of 3D World, he's guilty of several charges of kidnapping, aggravated assault, and possible murder.

[@Loseph2l]

But the 7 minions were sent on Bowser's behalf meaning that he was in on the assault

[@oboll6064]

There's been some things I could argue, primarily about the extras. Most of the extras are the potential for him to kill the same person (Mario) and you can't really kill someone more than once (And if Mario losing a life counts as killing him, you'd have to calculate the max amount of lives Mario could die to Bowser with, which is essentially infinite.) On top of that, you can play some of these games co-op and Bowser can potentially kill everyone else that joins in co-op too. A lot more of the Bowser fights could also be considered -kidnapping- false imprisonment and/or attempted murder, as during a good portion of them he's seemingly waiting for/approaches Mario and then proceeds to trap him in the room with him before attacking him. Mario, Luigi and other characters could also be potentially considered law enforcement, since they're at around the same level of authority as any of the toad guards you see in the series and seemingly face no punishment for breaking into any of Bowser's castles or other property, which means extra punishment for doing things to them and adds in things like obstruction of justice. - And lastly, there's still other things to cover, like some of the Mario RPG's and the Mario Movie

[@danemr6808]

If Mario walks into the room, with violent intent mind you, then closing the door behind him is hardly kidnapping. And Mario is more of a soldier than law enforcement given he goes across national borders.

She’s in the exact same boat as the other playable characters, except it’s slightly worse as she’s a princess.)

[@ultimatememe3586]

One thing: A lot of the charges you gave to Bowser came when Mario broke into his castle to fight him. Even though Bowser did kidnap Princess Peach, Mario breaking into Bowser's castle to retrieve her could be considered breaking and entering, making Bowser attacking him be classified as self defense. A lot of Bowser's potential life sentences would also be removed if that is the case since Bowser would be killing Mario in self defense. When you break into a criminal's house with the intent to kill them, I think it's fair to say that the criminal fighting back against you isn't them assaulting you. Any thoughts?

Maybe Mario is counted as a law enforcement officer

[@ultimatememe3586]

@@alvaro4996 True, but if that were the case he would still need a warrant to go into Bowser's castle, which you never see him obtain. It would also be strange for him to go alone if that were the case. You'd expect there to be multiple officers since it's a kidnapping situation.

[@TheUnGhost]

Crimes forgotten: You forgot the crimes relating to Bowser kidnapping Yoshi and his friends in Super Mario World. This would be mass hostages and he can get some child abuse charges because at the end of the game, we see that the Baby Yoshis were trapped in each of the eggs and once Bowser was defeated, the seal was broken. And while it was offscreen, in SMB1, Bowser transformed the mushroom retainers into bricks, which has to be some sort of crime. He also traps the Toads behind walls in Super Mario 64. In SM64DS, he kidnaps Mario, Luigi, and Wario, so those are three kidnappings. In 3D World, he kidnapped the Sprixies which are living beings that can think for themselves. Not sure if Yoshi's Island should be in this video since it's not part of the Super Mario series. EDIT: He also told his children to transform the kings into various creatures which would be multilation and probably usurping the throne. I'm a bit iffy of the fake Bowsers should carry the same crime but I guess you can argue Bowser conspired with his minions to help him. Also, I'm sure Bowser would've gotten the death penalty already for kidnapping a monarch. I'm also betting that Bowser would be risking some crimes regarding child endangerment with Bowser Jr. Not sure if you could count the Koopalings, since they are retconned to be his minions and there is only detail of them being his children in two game manuals and some game guides.

A few notes. 1 - They are only war crimes if you lose the war (which in canon he does, but could remove a few life sentences in "extra" which is scenarios he wins) 2 - Super Mario Bros. the first 7 fights aren't bowser, just minions disguised as him, though he presumably ordered them to do so. 3 - Bowser is a monarch, there are many times the monarch is above certain/all laws, it's likely within his own castle/kingdom attempting to/murdering Mario is legal or it could be framed as killing an intruder/enemy of the state. Though when in the Mushroom Kingdom he still has valid charges. 4 - In Super Mario world he also kidnaps Yoshi in addition to Peach, then puts him in an egg (which he seems relieved to be out of when you save him), so that is kidnapping + torture.

In SMB 1, it’s actually only one count and it’s the very last bowser. The other “bowsers” are actually imposters and they’re just Bowser’s minions disguised as him. The real bowser is the one in 8-4. So I guess instead of 8 charges, he should only get one.

And for potential charges, include “Child Abuse” because how else do you conscript children and force them to commit heinous acts? But obviously that’s left pretty vague since it’s a Nintendo game so we don’t know all the details. You could have also thrown in some extra aggravated assault/war crime/conspiracy charges for the Mario RPG/Mario and Luigi/Paper Mario games. And “aggravated assault” for him going back in time to fight Yoshi/Baby Mario in Yoshi’s New Island. And any acts committed in both the 1990s movie and the 2020s movie.

[@Ascension721]

i always thought bowser, you know sent them. He could be charged somewhat as it was his plan, after all.

[@SmashCrafter321]

A few games, and details in already listed games I noticed you forgot in this video... 1. In the original Super Mario Bros, you only fight the real Bowser once. The others are just minions in disguise. Regardless, they are acting under his command. So he likely still gets a charge as a result. 2. Super Mario Bros the lost levels (Japanese Mario Bros 2) is more or less the same song and dance as SMB1, except; *His brother, currently only known as Blue Bowser, also fights you in 8-4, along with real Bowser *There's an extra world 9 also with fake Bowsers, likely acting on his behalf as well * As well as lettered worlds A, B, C, and D, with D-4 also having you fight Blue Bowser and Real Bowser once again. Worlds 9, A, B, and C all have toads kidnapped as well, and somehow, Peach is kidnapped again in D-4, so he gets an extra kidnap charge for each one. 3. In Super Mario Bros. 3, Bowser's koopalings each take over one of the 7 other kingdoms in the game, likely as a diversion while he kidnaps the princess. So technically, he conspired to World Domination. 4. In Super Mario World, Bowser's koopalings set up fortresses in dinosaur land and kidnap 7 unhatched Yoshi eggs, and even put a spell of sorts to trap adult Yoshis inside of eggs in question mark blocks. So that's 7 more kidnap charges, and for every Yoshi egg stuck in a block, a false imprisonment charge as well. 5. In Super Mario 64, all the Toads in the castle are trapped within the castle walls, unable to leave. So for each toad, that could count as either a kidnap charge, and/or a false imprisonment charge. 5. In Super Mario Sunshine, Bowser Jr takes the appearance of Shadow Mario, as to frame Mario for crimes such as defacing public property (graffiti) and "threatening the pianta's way of life". Additionally, Jr actually attempted to kidnap Peach 1 other time before he succeeded. While there are also Yoshis in this game trapped in eggs till you bring the right fruit, they are actually made with the same paint that created many other enemies in the game, so they don't count to any sort of kidnap or false imprisonment charge, as they aren't real. 6. In New Super Mario Bros. on DS, Bowser technically serves one of his hypothetical death sentences, since he technically died in the first castle. But he then proceeds to somehow break the laws of nature itself by coming back as an undead skeleton as Dry Bowser, and then came back to life proper after his son threw his skeletal remains into a cauldron pot. So while he could've technically served one of his hypothetical life or death sentences from this, it may not count as for all we know, him coming back as a skeleton and back to normal, could've very well been planned. 7. In NSMBWii, The Koopalings and Junior use a cake as a false present to invade the castle and perform the kidnapping. I don't know what exact crime that would count as, but I'd imagine it be the same as the Trojan horse more or less. 8. In Mario Galaxy 2, Bowser's planet at the center of the universe is actually trying to suck up energy from a nearby comet, which later turns out to be Rosalina's comet observatory. This could count as 2 sentences of Grand Larceny. One for the stars of the various galaxies he visited, and the other for trying to take it directly from Rosalina. 9. NSMB2 on 3DS could technically have a second count of Bowser commiting arson and assault, but not kidnapping, since you can fight Dry Bowser in World ⭐-🏰 (Secret world btw). However this may not actually count, since not only has he not kidnap Peach in this castle after the main story, but the Dry Bowser in this game may not even be the real Bowser, since there are times in which both Normal Bowser and Dry Bowser both appear at the same time as separate characters. Regardless, since Bowser previously had fake Bowsers acting on his behalf, and a brother also taking action, we could count the 2 charges under extras since it's from a bonus world with no impact on the main story. 10. In 3D land, it's found that after beating Bowser in the main game, that his minions actually kidnapped Luigi in special world 1. However, like NSMB2, not only is it an optional bonus, but you again fight Dry Bowser, (multiple times if you go through all 8 special worlds) but its still not clear if it's undead Bowser, or a different person from Bowser. So maybe add the Luigi kidnap charge to the extras instead of main charges. Namely because Luigi still appears in future games regardless of being rescued in this one. 11. In 3D world, both the original version on Wii U and the Switch port, Bowser actually kidnaps 7 sprixie princesses (twice), who he uses the power of to build a large amusement park kingdom. He also had lines of tanks and trains fitted with weapons and soldiers around the different worlds, and hired circus like bosses to attempt to stop Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Peach from progressing further. So in that game, he gets either 7 or 14 kidnap charges, 2 assaults with weapons (soccer bombs during world 1 and world 7 fights)a regular assault since the cat bell and double cherry are magic in nature, and thus may not count as weapons persay. And for extras, the murder charge is technically times 4 since he's technically fighting all 4 from a story standpoint. (It could technically be 5 since Rosalina also appears as a secret playable character in the game, but you only really need to play as her in the previous levels for an all levels stamp.) 12. In Super Mario Maker 2, there is actually a story mode. In the story, Bowser and Bowser Jr actually created levels, (while under anonymous names) with the express intent of harming Mario. Whatever crimes accur in those levels likely count as extras since for the most part, they are optional, as other levels are available. However, around the end of the game, Bowser actually kidnaps Toadette, which once again lands him "the Bowser trio" of charges. (Everything in this game however may not count as it's technically not a mainline Mario game) 13. In odyssey, Bowser should technically have multiple assault charges for attacking both Mario, and by extension, Cappy, in both the sea of clouds fight, as well as having a dragon under his control attack them as well. Also he, and the Broodals, who he hired as wedding planners(and also attacked Mario and Cappy), have committed multiple counts of grand larceny from stealing various artifacts from the different kingdoms, and his kidnap charge counts as 2, since the tiara he gave to Peach in this game is actually Cappy's sister. I can understand not including the RPG game like Paper Mario and Mario and Luigi, since they aren't part of the main series, and Bowser isn't the final boss in most of those games, as well as the various remakes such as the Advance series, and Super Mario 64 DS since they are just remakes of the previous games. But man, those last 2 in particular felt glossed over.

Would be interesting to see other video game villains be charged, such as Ganondorf.

Typically, he seems to not have control of himself in the form (although exceptions may apply, like in TP), however he typically willingly goes into this form, such as in OoT, but not always (OoX and ALBW). Here’s a short list of things I thought of on the spot that he’s done (probably missing a lot). Also no TotK here, haven’t done everything in that game, no spoilers please. OoT: Murder (Deku Tree) Assaulting a minor (throws a magic ball at young link when he’s chasing Zelda) Grand Larceny (stealing Triforce, probably also counts as treason given the Triforce’s importance) Murder x unknown number (likely kills many Hylian citizens, but no way to find number apart from the the redeads in castle town) Usurping the throne Kidnapping (Zelda) TP: Prior convictions (sentence: death) Murder (Probably second degree) (Water Sage) Usurping the Throne x2 (Techically Zant does this but pretty sure Ganondorf would be charged as well) WW: Assaulting a minor (Link, at FF) Kidnapping x4 (probably way more but the only ones we are aware of are Links sister, Zelda, and those two girls on windfall.

That’s what I said

Dang, you’re right!!

But that’s Bowser JR, not Bowser

@@capybara2515 bowser has legal responsibility of the child and is therefore liable for said crimes.

@@admiralensin. That’s like saying a child left home 5 years ago, kills a man, and the parent is responsible even though they had no idea where their child was.

I can see you’re charging a villain from a video game instead of a TV show or a movie. That’s new. You should do that more often!

[@PeachyNovaProductions]

I love how Mousait ignores that Bowser kidnapped 7 Sprixie Princesses in Super Mario 3D World, yet didn’t get charged for that.

[@swooperduck6856]

Next, you should do if Mario was charged for his crimes

[@SirNerdTheThird5143]

It's not as farfetched as it sounds, as Mario got arrested in Super Mario Sunshine.

[@CM333_]

i get the feeling that most of his crimes would be pardoned by princess peach whenever they're comitted on mushroom kingdom soil

[@freedantheeternal]

In his case, it'd be hard to actually make anything stick since we know Peach would just give him a full pardon if he was charged with anything in the Mushroom Kingdom.
