*This episode contains a few references to the ''{{wp|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles}}'' franchise, most notably the title. | |||
**[[Morton|Big Mouth Koopa]] also references the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles catchphrase "I love being a turtle!" from {{wp|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990 film)|their first film}} by saying "I love being a Koopa!" | |||
*The [[Koopalings]] also share similarities to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: they are brothers, teenagers, based on turtles, and ninjas, and each of the members' personalities reflect that of a certain turtle: | |||
**[[Roy|Bully]] is the team's arrogant member, similar to {{wp|Raphael (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Raphael}}. | |||
**[[Ludwig|Kooky]] is the team's wise member, similar to {{wp|Donatello (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Donatello}}. | |||
**Big Mouth is the team's bothersome member, similar to {{wp|Michelangelo (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Michelangelo}}. | |||
**[[Larry|Cheatsy]] is the team's neutral member, similar to {{wp|Leonardo (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Leonardo}}. | |||
*This episode is notable for being the first time in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' cartoons where [[Bowser|King Koopa]] is referred to as "Bowser Koopa" when [[Mario]] says that he is not taking over any land. He is also referred to by this name in "[[Princess Toadstool for President]]," "[[Reign Storm]]," and "[[Crimes R Us]]." | |||
**It is also notable for being the only episode in the series to show parts of it during the credits, with the scene with Mario and [[Luigi]] being chased by the [[Angry Sun]] and collecting a [[Super Leaf]] being used. | |||
*This episode, along with "[[Reptiles in the Rose Garden]]", are the only two episodes that use a different scene transition style, where some scenes transition with a pink border around them with no black screen appearing before fading to the next scene. This transition style does not appear in later episodes, likely due to these episodes being produced first. However, there is a exception for one scene; the scene transition from the Mario Bros. being transported by a [[Warp Pipe]] to the Koopalings approaching [[Prince Hugo]]'s castle uses a green border instead of a pink border. | *This episode, along with "[[Reptiles in the Rose Garden]]", are the only two episodes that use a different scene transition style, where some scenes transition with a pink border around them with no black screen appearing before fading to the next scene.
