So if the bros actually are in Sarasaland for the sequel, why are they there? And if Daisy does appear, what would her role be? Perhaps something similar to DK’s role in the first movie?

Whatever it is, I hope they establish her as more than just Luigi’s love interest. I’ve seen some people mention how much they want her to appear in the sequel, but it’s only so she and Luigi can make goo-goo eyes at each other and nothing else.

If they are in Sarasaland, I'm going guess either

They need Princess Daisy's help either to find a macguffin or for political allegiance.

They got lost somewhere in their journey (maybe due to a malfunctioning warp pipe) and now need help finding their way home / to The Darklands to save Princess Peach.

In either case, I do imagine Princess Daisy would serve kind of a DK-ish role where she joins them partway through their adventure to give them a leg up. She acts as the muscle, mostly working in the background while having obvious on-screen importance in terms of turning the tide of battle.

As for her interaction with Luigi, I'm with you. Either I want her to have a respectful (albeit a little obvious) crush on Luigi that he stays entirely oblivious to for the entire movie or... better yet... I want them to handle it exactly the same way they handled Peach and Mario's relationship.

There's no moment that sparks fly, but you can see tiny things clicking into place: soft moments of connection and little instances of Daisy paying especially close attention to Lu's emotional state. From a distance it looks like just a strong friendship forming, but if you look harder you can see something a little stronger than that brewing beneath the surface.

#but fr Mario and Peaches relationship is one of the most 10/10 relationships I have seen on screen #on the premise that it's so natural and subtle and soft and innocent #maybe that's just the aro/ace side of me who is annoyed by movies always revolving around the romantic aspect #so them having the romance kind of there but so in the background it can be missed was nice.#There was no payoff of a kiss or a romantic date or even a blushing bashfulness #Mario wasn't there to woo a princess or even be a big hero he was there to save his brother #Peach knows that and wants to help him #but at the same time the way he loves his brother so strongly and is so determined to save him draws her in #endears her to him in a very respectful ''oh you're a kindred spirit'' sort of way #it's nice. I like it a lot #never shipped Mareach before but the movie got me into it #if they are just as slow and subtle in the way they handle Luaisy I would explode from happiness #Mario Movie 2 #Mario #Princess Peach #Mario 2 speculation #mareach #askbox #anon
