The Toad then rejoices and gives Mario an HP-Up Heart, in addition to doubling the stickers that were placed.

Olivia, Paper Mario: The Origami King

MAX UP Hearts return in Paper Mario: The Origami King under their current name. Like in Sticker Star, they can now be found around the world in various locations. Each one increases Mario's maximum HP by five, ten, or twenty. The amount of damage Mario's attacks and First Strikes do also increases every time Mario's HP is increased to an even-tenth number. Collecting all hearts raises Mario's HP to a maximum of 200 (not counting HP boosts from Heart Plus accessories).
