[@KitsuneChiSan]

Just did this battle yesterday and I broke the cover on the first turn. I had no idea how I managed to dodge the one-hit kill for the rest of the battle. The jerk keeps taking away my opportunity to use the Vellumentals, so I had to rely on the extra hit panels and legendary hammers to finish him.

@@sirrbryan Oh, I know how you feel. I didn't have too much of an issue with the scissors despite the tedious battle of just using the hammer and no Ice Vellumental. But the other boss battles, I definitely stressed a lot due to time and did stupid crap like jumping on the Fire Vellumental multiple times with the wrong boots.

[@christopherwallace7903]

I know that people aren’t too keen on the idea of Paper Mario leaning more towards the paper aspect, but you got to appreciate that it allows a Mario game to get away with brutal and morbid things that you would never see in the average Mario game, like creating a monster made out of “people’s” faces and Mario getting split in half. Rated E for everyone.

[@Shadex_Joestar]

Look,as someone who started with TTYD(and enjoyed all the 5 Main games),I have to admit:I honestly think it's Genius for the same reasons you just said+it adds a lot to the game's charm,the use of the Outlines makes every Character pop out so damn well,allows them to create fun puzzles and Villains like Olly or the Black Paint,who may not be as Complex as Count Bleck,but manage to feel more threatening than anything the 1st Trilogy had to offer(although the Villains WERE definetely threatening) since they literally play with their World's logic "Who cares if the Shadow Queen is literally Genderbent Satan when you can just tape her coffin or cut her head off?" "Oh no,Dimentio has the Chaos Heart! Let me just suck his Colors away real quick..." "Bowser is now invincible thanks to the Star Rod! Too bad Hole Punch ate it and it's practically useless now..."

[@austinmorrison6953]

Plus it’s how far they lean into the paper aspect that I like. Like of course Scissors would be the most lethal in the LOS.

[@StarliteKat]

Not to mention that last stationary finisher move. That was a very brutal implication of what he did.

[@ctpp64]

​@@Aetheliayeah. cuz the first 3 games were more of a fairy tale storybook style. origami king is more like a pop-up book with a literal paper world

[@MeStirRyanYTP]

So, get this: In my first battle with Scissors, on my first turn after he removed the cover, I made a route that took me to an action panel, picking up an extra move along the way. Thinking his blades were considered “spiked”, I pick two Legendary Iron Boot attacks. Mario makes the first jump- BAM! Mario was sliced in half upon contact. 999 damage. Instant KO. But I had a 1-UP Mushroom on me, so I was revived. Then I remembered I selected TWO Legendary Iron Boots. You can probably guess what happened next.

(I assumed that the thousand fold arms would be terrible in this battle from the gate, and I also assumed his handle was his weak spot). By the time he unsheathed himself he was below half health, I only needed to dodge his final cut attack 3 times during the entire battle, it was just my instinct to dodge his attacks when the warning prompts me to plus the ice vellumental made it easier, the tip envelope reassured me that the thousand fold arms only work while he's frozen so I made it through this fight pretty easily.

Scissors is one of the only bosses I've faced who legitimately scares me. I've fought the Shadow Queen and Super Dimentio. I've bested Dark Matter/Zero and Void Termina, Ultra Necrozma and Enternatus and, going outside of Nintendo, took down Yaldabaoth and Azathoth. But no boss I've ever fought/watched gives me the sense of dread Scissors does; when I was going for the Bowser treasure, Scissors was the last boss I fought, and I have not rematched it since. It frightens me that much. And, strangely, I don't actually consider it a difficult boss (the Fire and Ice Vellumentals, Rubber Band and Tape all gave me much more trouble), and my time for beating it is one of my best; I just don't like facing it!

the boss fight is much more difficult if you break the cover first. there are no magic circles AT ALL, and the one you can use does nothing. alongside that, it's very rare you'll ever get a + action or X attack panel. you just have to learn all his movements, get ready in case he decides to juke you out, and pray that your legendary hammers will see through to the end. if not, you may as well give in, because that means you have little to no chance of winning. take this from someone who actually had to do the boss fight like this.

Game: WARNING DO NOT BREAK COVER me: oh is that a challenge me five minutes later: **crying in the corner** shit shit

[@gamingawesomeness222]

This is one of the best bosses available on the nintendo switch. If you've mastered this game's system and know your options, you only have to dodge it's attack ONCE.

Favorite boss in the game so far. Only reason he took me 2 tries was because I didn't think I'd still get one shot when trying to use Iron Boots on his blades lol

[@Christmas-Jacket]

get ready for hell when you fight Stapler lol

[@vgmarkis]

@@Christmas-Jacket I didn't find Stapler too bad. You just spam jump attacks then do fold arms while he's reloading

[@chalicethecharmer]

Iron Boots were still made out of paper.

[@lauziyi5728]

You’re just dead if you touch the blades

[@nobgs4505]

The fight gets REALLY tense once the sheath is gone, especially since its not the same timing every time, Scissors WILL try to throw you off your game, and the instant it hits a single attack, you're flat out dead. And if you break the sheath early, the game takes that as you challenging yourself and thus, removes the Vellumental Circles, meaning you HAVE to be confident in your ability to dodge multiple instant kill attacks, for multiple turns straight, as you whittle down Scissors' HP, knowing one mistake is outright fatal.

Paper Mario: *avoids final cut* Scissors: You Weren’t supposed to do that.

[@viczilla24dreamer51]

Looks like things are getting pretty sharp here!

[@cartoonriley56]

Please tell me im not the only one that I laughed so hard of how at the end of the fight i managed to beat the Scissors and after I did, it just became shocked without saying a word and then dies. Hard fight, but worth the outcome XD.

[@phillipwhitfield7890]

Ngl, seeing Bowser in that state really puts him in his place. Maybe Peach should learn how to fold like that, so she wouldn't have to keep calling Mario all the time. Seriously, plumbers aren't supposed to be knights, y'know

On that day, Mario and Olivia destroyed the natural order.

Never in my life have I’ve ever been scared by a pair of green scissors

[@MountainMemelord]

"I'll split you in two!"

[@johnmoss1444]

Wow! This is like the only time I’ve seen Kamek nice to Mario. Same with Bowser and his son. Well unlike the origami king, Mario and Bowser are actually more of a committed relationship. They are nothing without each other and need each other. Having a nemesis is a huge commitment and if the enemy antagonizes another good guy, the original hero will feel heartbroken.

[@RealSirMikay]

Dude, you just described the relationship between Perry and Doofenshmirtz.

THIS GAVED ME SO MUCH STRESS

I can’t believe one of the most iconic Thing battle items is now trying to kill me

[@bsmig5450]

I wonder if they made the scissors green to make a throwback to the first thing sticker in sticker star

[@Christmas-Jacket]

they probably did lol

[@Drago-ii9vy]

Word of advice: Don’t even try using the iron boots on scissors because if you do your as good as sliced. I learned that the hard way...

[@DrGandW]

So does the player in the video Good thing he had a 1-Up

[@flodthelunatic5678]

I love the idea, it’s so rare Nintendo make us fight a boss so lethal

[@gdashfan13gd30]

This is one of the coolest bosses in Paper Mario The Origami King

[@chalicethecharmer]

Thx

[@isaacabell3810]

This boss literally made my spine shiver. But I did beat it first try. I loved that this boss gave me a true challenge. This game is the best!

[@chalicethecharmer]

Thank you

[@fortheburbsandmemes7419]

I think he’s mad because he didn’t make the cut in color splash
