Brace yourselves, because this one is about to get weird.
Right, so it turns out there’s this item in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe called the Super Crown which seems to transform characters into some kind of version of Princess Peach (or at least they take on aspects of that character). What initially caught the internet’s attention is the fact that when Toadette puts the crown on, she becomes Peachette. This raised many questions regarding the full abilities of this item and whether or not it is going to add some new characters to the Mario universe.
The conversation became that much more interesting when people started asking, “What happens when Bowser puts on the Super Crown?”
We don’t know the official answer to that question, but the people of the internet have decided that such an interaction should result in Bowsette. Who is Bowsette? She’s the Princess Peach version of Bowser that has already developed quite a following despite the fact that she technically doesn’t exist within the Mario universe. It’s not entirely clear who is responsible for this concept, but Eurogamer and others are saying that artist aykk92 is responsible for popularizing the idea via a comic strip in which Mario leaves Peach for Bowsette.
That’s far from the only piece of fan art that portrays Bowsette, though. It seems that just about every internet artist has their own interpretation of what this character looks like (the image above came from Master Clockwork on Twitter). Most seem to agree that she’ll sport a pair of horns and the general consensus is that she wears black. There are already people cosplaying as Bowsette and others who argue that her technical name should be “Peacher” (based on the Toadette to Peachette transformation).
Before you start diving deep into this particular fan art well, you should know that the obsession with Bowsette (as we choose to call her) has already spiraled into fan art porn. Actually, it got there pretty quickly. So while we don’t know exactly what happens when Bowser puts on the Super Crown, we can tell you that it probably won’t look like some of the more recent images of Bowsette.
Take it away, ProZD…
