Kinoppe is a recurring character in Comic BonBon's Super Mario manga. A female Toad with a distinctive giggling laugh, she is described as a follower of Princess Peach and Dr. Mario's daughter.
History
Kinoppe makes her first appearance in both volumes of the Super Mario Kart adaptation. She is the flag-bearer for the race.
In the epilogue of the Super Mario Bros. USA adaptation, Kinoppe is captured alongside Princess Peach by Wart's minions. She is rescued when Mario, Luigi and Toad win Wart's roulette game.
In the Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins adaptation, Kinoppe makes a brief cameo in the third volume. She is seen as a character Luigi is playing as in a video game, wearing clothes similar to Chun-Li.
During the events of the Yoshi's Safari adaptation, Bowser's forces attack Dr. Mario's laboratory and Kinoppe gets kidnapped by Bowser. Bowser later attempts to trick Mario and Dr. Mario by disguising Wendy Koopa as Kinoppe, but an irritated Mario makes Wendy blow her cover.
In the second volume, Bowser attempts to convince Dr. Mario into helping him by showing Kinoppe locked in a cell, but Dr. Mario, remembering the Wendy incident, thinks it's another trick. While Bowser is not looking, Wendy frees Kinoppe and brings her to Dr. Mario.
Kinoppe goes to Mario and Yoshi to help them by deploying various gadgets. While ridding Yoshi, Kinoppe is blown away by the cannon of the Mecha Nokonoko. The machine aims another shot at Kinoppe, but Mario shields her with her body. Kinoppe tends to a fainted Mario and he wakes up, to her relief. She deploys a jump pad, which allows Mario to destroy the machine by firing the Super Scope from above. Dr. Mario emerges with another machine and takes aim at Mario and Yoshi. Before he can fire again, Kinoppe shields them. This makes Dr. Mario pause, allowing Princess Peach to come on the scene and deploy powerful motars that destroy his mecha. Kinoppe later watches Mario infiltrating Bowser's fortress.
In the first volume of the Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 adaptation, Kinoppe makes a cameo as one of the frozen victims in the Penguin's lair. The third volume of the adaptation includes a 4-koma strip showing Kinoppe picking a mushroom (actually a Toad) from the ground.
Kinoppe makes a cameo in the first volume of the Donkey Kong adaptation, on a billboard in the Big-City. In the second volume, she is seen wandering on a street on Donkey Kong Island.
During the third volume of the Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island adaptation, Kinoppe is seen greeting the babies when they enter Dr. Mario's laboratory.
In the first volume of Super Mario 64, she is seen among those imprisoned among Princess Peach's Castle's walls.
For the Mario Kart 64 story, Kinoppe is a commentator on the first races and kisses Toad on the podium when he wins the first race.
For the 4-Koma issue, Kinoppe makes a cameo when a pipe falls on Yoshi's head and he fantasizes about being rescued by her.
Notes
- Beside her in-story appearances, Kinoppe is depicted on the reader's drawing submissions in Wario's Woods, the two volumes of Donkey Kong Country, and the second and third volume of Super Mario 64.
- In 2019, Super Mario author Kazuki Motoyama started publishing a series of doujin books titled Kinoppe-chan Forever (キノッペちゃんForever) starring Kinoppe in a new world. Due to their self-published nature, these are not considered official Mario material.
- According to the author's note in the 2nd installment of Kinoppe-chan Forever, a former editor of Kazuki Motoyama had pitched him a spin-off manga starring Kinoppe. These plans were halted when Nintendo unexpectedly pulled ComicBonBon's Mario manga license in 1997.
