Let's flip him over quick! Otherwise, the Bros. may form a tower and do their famous spinning attack! <br>- '''Disguised as Toads''': He's a funny color for a Toad. | |||

The '''Koopa Bros.''' are a quartet of costumed ninja [[Koopa Troopa]]s, and a spoof of the [[wikipedia:Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]. The Koopa Bros. consist of '''Green Ninjakoopa''', '''Yellow Ninjakoopa''', '''Black Ninjakoopa''' (blue in its artwork) and the leader, '''Red Ninjakoopa'''. They are followers of [[Bowser]] and his [[Koopa Troop]], and while they are all egotistical and obsessed with being cool, they have a great deal of respect for the Koopa King and for each other. They have been entrusted by Bowser with [[Eldstar]], and the first Star Spirit Guardians Mario has to defeat. The theme that plays during the fight with the Koopa Bros is a cover version of the [[Hammer Bro]]s. theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. | |||

It is mentioned by several characters throughout ''[[Paper Mario]]'' that the Koopa Bros. were originally inhabitants of [[Koopa Village]], apparently living in it around the same time as [[Kent C. Koopa]] | It is mentioned by several characters throughout ''[[Paper Mario]]'' that the Koopa Bros. were originally inhabitants of [[Koopa Village]], apparently living in it around the same time as [[Kent C. Koopa]]. Eventually, the Koopa Bros. grew tired of Koopa Village, finding its serene environment and lack of excitement boring. The Koopa Bros. eventually left Koopa Village and traveled to [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]] (which was apparently then in ruin), whose [[Bob-omb]]s they seemingly befriended. | ||
The Koopa Bros. eventually became conceited and corrupted due to the influence of Bowser and [[Kammy Koopa]], who had taken a liking to them. Enslaving the Bob-ombs inhabiting Koopa Bros. Fortress (which they seemingly then rebuilt), the Koopa Bros. worked them non-stop, and if they rebelled, imprisoned them. When Bowser stole the wish-granting [[Star Rod (Paper Mario)|Star Rod]] and imprisoned the [[Star Spirits]], the Koopa King entrusted the elder Star Spirit, [[Eldstar]], to the Koopa Bros. | |||

The Koopa Bros. first appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' in [[Princess Peach's Castle]] after the Goomba King's defeat, where they reassure both Kammy Koopa and Bowser that they can stop Mario, and also show them a technique, which impresses Bowser; the Koopa Bros. are later sent running from Princess Peach's Castle after informing Bowser that they did not actually post someone to guard the captured Eldstar, a show of incompetence and lack of thought which infuriates the Koopa king. | |||

With help from [[Merlon]], who sees through the Koopa Bros.' disguise, Mario is able to cause them to retreat. The Koopa Bros. attempt to impede Mario's progress in Pleasant Path as well, creating various obstacles and having various minions patrol the area. | ||
When Black Ninjakoopa finds that Mario and his allies have reached Koopa Bros. Fortress, he alerts his brothers and they proceed to set about making various traps and obstacles in their home, all of which Mario passes. In a last-ditch effort to stop Mario, Red Ninjakoopa has his brothers set up three [[Bill Blaster]]s on top of the fortress, which Mario likewise manages to overcome. Reaching the Koopa Bros. at last, Mario, before he can fight the Bros. themselves, has to battle their creation, a poorly constructed [[Bowser???|facsimile of Bowser]]. When their fake Bowser is destroyed, the Koopa Bros. attack Mario using a whirling tower attack. Regardless, Mario still defeats them, sending them tumbling into the prison of their own fortress, incapable of escaping. | |||

The Koopa Bros. appeared in ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]'', a Japan-exclusive manga. In their first appearance in ''Super Mario-Kun'', the Koopa Bros. appeared to attack Mario, [[Luigi]], and [[Yoshi]] in a platform-filled area, taking on various disguises and using shell-like shurikens in combat. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Red Ninjakoopa is the only member of the Koopa Bros. to wear an outfit that matches one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' outfits. He and Raphael both wear red. | |||
**However, prior to the 1987 cartoon, all of the turtles had worn red. | |||
**Black Ninjakoopa did have a blue outfit (Leonardo's signature color) in the official artwork, though. | |||
*Their appearance marks the second TMNT reference in the ''Mario'' series. The first was an episode of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', known as [[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]. | |||
