Do Waluigi and Daisy Actually Have Secret Romantic Chemistry?

At first glance, you might speculate that lanky purple villain Waluigi and the fiery flower princess Daisy have been secretly getting closer behind the scenes. Perhaps a forbidden mushroom kingdom love is blooming?!

Unfortunately for Waluigi fans hoping to see him find love, the evidence overwhelmingly suggests Daisy only has eyes for his arch-rival and her unofficial boyfriend – Luigi.

Let‘s analyze the key moments hinting at relationships between Luigi & Daisy and Waluigi‘s one-sided crush, along with Nintendo‘s apparent reluctance to confirm any Mario universe pairings.

Luigi and Daisy: Budding Video Game Romance

Luigi and Daisy have shown obvious on-screen chemistry and possible mutual affection ever since meeting in 1989‘s Super Mario Land. When they‘re together, their body language suggests a blossoming mushroom kingdom romance may be unfolding:

As early as the Mario Party 4 guide book in 2002, hints were dropped that Daisy prefers the lanky green plumber over his purple-clad rival. Fans reacted with joy at seeing the two together in a lovey-dovey statue in Mario Kart Wii:

While never officially confirmed as boyfriend and girlfriend, their flirty interactions leave little doubt about a mutual attraction.

Waluigi’s Unrequited Love

In contrast, Waluigi has clearly shown one-sided romantic interest in Daisy across several titles. Fans have speculated endlessly about the origins of his crush:

Waluigi fans are torn about his chances of winning Daisy’s heart – some stage elaborate plots for him to woo her, while others urge him to move on. But when he sees Luigi and Daisy flirting up a storm, you can practically see Waluigi’s heart break in two inside his lanky chest:

For now at least, it seems Waluigi’s affections are destined to remain unrequited.

Nintendo’s Relationship Policy – Or Lack Thereof

Nintendo has infamously declined to establish any canon romantic relationships between major Mario characters. Series creator Shigeru Miyamoto himself vetoed a potential Mario/Peach marriage that was planned back in the mid-90s.

In our opinion, this reluctance to define character couples is a huge disservice to fans who invest in shipping their favorite characters! Nintendo may worry about limiting future story options, but they’re missing opportunities to make fans happy with relationship choices that ring true.

We at Super Mario Brothers Fans United hereby formally request that Nintendo confirm Luigi and Daisy as an item immediately! Surely even Miyamoto can‘t resist their sweet chemistry?

Final Verdict: Waluigi Must Move On From His Daisy Crush!

In conclusion, I must insist as both an expert Mario fan and hopeless romantic that Waluigi STOP pursuing the lovely Daisy at once!

Can‘t you see her heart belongs to another, you lanky purple fool?

We wish you a speedy recovery from this heartbreak Waluigi. Your true soulmate is still out there somewhere – perhaps you just need to look beyond princesses to find the love you deserve?

Meanwhile, all evidence suggests Luigi and Daisy’s affection grows ever stronger. Here’s hoping Nintendo makes it official someday!
