| | '''Lubba''' is a particularly large and sometimes wisecracking purple [[Luma]] who appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. He is the head honcho of the Lumas in the game. He created [[Starship Mario]] with his Lumas and handed it to [[Mario]]. His first ship was destroyed by a few meteors launched by [[Bowser]], which caused all the Lumas on the ship to disperse throughout the galaxy and become separated from one another. Lubba aids and accompanies Mario in his quest to defeat Bowser, making a deal with him that, in return for Mario recovering the [[Power Star|Power Stars]], he'll help Mario rescue [[Princess Peach]]. <ref>[http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=120465 GoNintendo - Famitsu pics/scans - Super Mario Galaxy 2, Xenoblade, Sengoku Basara 3, LovePlus +, Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Masou Kishin ~ The Lord of Elemental]</ref> As the captain of the mobile hub of the game and the leader of the Lumas, he more or less replaces [[Rosalina]] of the original ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' in this respect. |
| '''Lubba''' is a [[List of characters|character]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. He is a large purple [[Luma]] and the leader of the species in this appearance. Lubba has an orb on his head and wears blue trousers with darker and lighter squares divided by diagonal borders. Similarly to the other Lumas, Lubba can also be fed by shooting [[Star Bit]]s at him. Lubba often makes remarks about the guests on his ship; as an example, he claims to be allergic to [[Honeybee]]s, has an aversion to [[Gearmo]]s, and considers [[Whittle]]s to be good friends. | |

| ===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
| |
| [[File:SMG2 Lubba 77stars.png|thumb|upright=1.4|Lubba's response to the player having 77 Power Stars, from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'']] | |
| In the story of ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Lubba is first seen after Mario completes [[Peewee Piranha's Temper Tantrum]], the first [[mission]] of the [[Sky Station Galaxy]]. Prior to the game's events, [[Bowser]] destroyed Lubba's first spaceship by firing several meteors at it, causing most of the Lumas on the ship to fall down to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. After Mario brings back the "[[Baby Luma|young master Luma]]", Lubba thanks him and creates [[Starship Mario]] with his fellow Lumas and promptly appoints [[Mario]] the captain. Lubba aids and accompanies Mario in his quest to defeat Bowser, making a deal with him that, in return for Mario recovering the [[Power Star]]s, he helps Mario rescue [[Princess Peach]]. As the captain of the mobile hub of the game and the leader of the Lumas, he more or less replaces [[Rosalina]] and [[Polari]] of the previous ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' in this respect. Lubba mostly stands by Starship Mario's wheel and informs Mario of different things to help him out. However, he can also be found in some other places on the ship. Whenever a new item or passenger comes aboard the ship, Lubba appears somewhere else on the ship and tells Mario something about the new object or creature and/or cracks a joke about them. Whenever Mario enters a new world, Lubba flies off of Starship Mario and says something about Mario's progress. After Bowser is defeated and the final [[Power Star]] of the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]] is collected and [[Rosalina]] boards Starship Mario, it is revealed that Lubba has met her before, though the exact place is unclear. Lubba thanks Mario for his hard work bringing whom he calls "The Lady of the Shooting Stars" on board the ship.

| Lubba has various lines that appear during certain scenarios only. When playing early in the morning, Lubba's field speech bubble says "So...sleepy..." When spoken to, he says, "Geez. It's kinda early, isn't it? I feel so sleepy..." When the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]'s batteries are low, Lubba tells [[Mario]] to replace them and [[Fourth wall|warns that it will be bad]] if the batteries die in a dangerous place. When Mario has 77 Power Stars or 777 or 7,777 Star Bits, he says, "Hey, you have (number and object)! How lucky! ♪" Similarly, if the player has exactly 1,000 Star Bits, he says, "You have 1,000 Star Bits! That must feel pretty good!" Additionally, when Mario has 9,999 Star Bits, he says "What happens when you get 9,999 Star Bits? Something nice, I bet!" | | Lubba stands beside [[Starship Mario|Starship Mario's]] wheel, ready to dispense useful advice. Whenever Mario returns to the starship after meeting a special goal or unlocking something new, Lubba is right there to give him the full update. Talk to Lubba from time to time to learn more about the starship and the universe it's sailing through. Lubba is a wonderful resource for budding captains. |

| | After the final 242nd [[Power Star]] from the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]] is collected and Rosalina boards Starship Mario, it is revealed that Lubba has met her before. However, where he first met her is unknown. He thanks Mario for his hard work bringing who he calls "The Lady of the Stars" on board the ship. |
| Lubba appears in Rosalina's [[List of golfing terms#Eagle|Eagle]], [[List of golfing terms#Albatross|Albatross]], and [[List of golfing terms#Hole-in-One|Hole-In-One]] animations in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]''.

| A few collectible items of Lubba appear in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', there is a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] of Lubba, and in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', there is a {{iw|smashwiki|support spirit}} of Lubba that grants the {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}} immunity from reversed left-and-right controls when equipped. The Lubba spirit battle pits players against a giant [[Kirby]], who starts the battle holding a [[Launch Star|Super Launch Star]]. There is decreased gravity for the duration of the battle (unless a spirit that counters this is equipped), and the battle takes place on the Mario Galaxy stage with the music "The Starship Sails" from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' playing.

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *In the German manual of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', Lubba is referred to as a female Luma, and the [[Toad Brigade]] also called him a "she" once in the game. The game's official German website identifies him as a male. | | *In the opening, when Mario first lands on [[Starship Mario]] (which, at the time, was simply a planet struck with meteors that Lubba managed to turn into the starship with the help of the first [[Power Star]]), Lubba asks him a pair of questions at one point (the first is the quote). The two answers are "That's right" and "Yes." |
| | *When a bee boards the Starship Mario, he reveals to Mario that he is allergic to them. |
| | *When playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 early in the morning, Lubba's field speech bubble will say "So...sleepy..." He will say "Geez. It's kinda early, isn't it? I feel so sleepy..." when spoken to. |
