| | '''Big Blooper''' is a boss in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. He blocks [[Mario]], [[Bowser]], and [[Peach]] from moving on to [[Fort Francis]]. He has many tentacles. He uses the blue tentecals to attack Mario and the yellow ones to prevent Mario from moving on, even when he [[Flip]]s. Occasionally, from the center of his face, one tentacle will move up, pause, and move down. This blooper takes damage when anyone on Mario's team attacks the tentacle with red suction cups on it. 10 attacks and it dies. |
| '''[[Big Blooper]]''' is a boss who fights the protagonists in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' during Chapter 3-2. Its theme is an arrangement of the underwater music from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. | | <br clear=all> |

| This gigantic [[Blooper]] blocks the way through [[the Tile Pool]] and prevents [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]] and [[Bowser]], from moving on to [[Fort Francis]]. There are a few options for offense against it. The player may jump on the tentacles when they are sticking up out of the water. The player may also use [[Thudley]] to ground-pound the tentacles or use Bowser's [[Fire Breath]] to singe them. The fiery-breath may be the safer choice, as the player will lose [[Heart Point]]s if they miss when ground pounding, but it takes longer. Slamming or burning the blue tentacles makes the more-sensitive red tentacles bob upward with more frequency. If [[Mario]] goes into 3D and tries to leave, the Big Blooper's tentacles will block the way.
| | ==Trivia== |
| | *Big Blooper's appearance theme is a remix of the Underwater background music from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. |
| | *Big Blooper is similar to the [[Blooper]] that appeared in [[Rougeport Sewers]] in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door]]''. |
| | *The picture above with Peach in it was taken from a [[Beta Elements#Super Paper Mario|beta]] version of the game. |

| Defeating Big Blooper does not earn the player any points, and the giant squid is not killed by the encounter. If the player enters the area where the Blooper's tentacles come out of the floor and ceiling, Big Blooper can be tattled using [[Tippi]] or [[Tiptron]].

| In the Japanese version of the game, Big Blooper's [[Catch Card]] describes it as hailing from the western seas, a reference to the [[Blooper (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Blooper]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', who is also said to hail from the western seas.<ref>{{cite|author=inu651225|date=October 23, 2010|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmnG1YznKq0&t=577s|title=スーパーペーパーマリオ 全カード集｛ネタばれ注意｝|timestamp=9:37|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=February 5, 2025}}</ref>
