Seeing how big the meme has blown up (trending more than anything else at the moment lol) I though...eh why not a thread before it dies forever?

Not a fan of cursing, but sometimes strong language is required to convey strong emotions. So I will say... Da Fuck?

Why? Why does this image exist and why is it apparently a thing? (Also, I don't like some parts of this particular image but I want to keep my mouth shut for a little while, that valve thread was a poop show!).

A guy drew a comic based on Odyssey and how on the new game toadette turns into peach by wearing a crown so its implied they settled for each other using the crown

It blew up after famous Japanese artists started making their own renditions.

I'm not sure how I feel about this... Also not sure how I haven't heard of this yet.

The comic strips are amusing though for sure.
I don't know whether the X-CHANGE type gender swapping stuff is the best part or the worst part.

Yes.

So this character is bowser turned into a girl? That is bizarre. So it is gender bending bowser into a human princess like peach or rosalina, why? Or is it not supposed to be bowser? I also implied I don't like the image you showed for... some reasons... (I don't want to expunge personally but if I have to I will, and you can probably easily guess what I am getting at just based on my username alone) it seems like this fan character is made for the reason I don't like. That is a tad irksome. I am fine with fanart as it shows fans expressing their love for a series, but I don't like it when it gets too... colorful... it gets into weird territory that probably isn't necessarily the best place to be.

I think you're thinking about this a little hard. It's simply a joke playing on the reveal of New Super Mario Bros U from last week. Toadette can use a crown (which you can see in the comics above) to turn into Peachette, hence the joke being random characters using the crown to turn into attractive female characters. It's not exactly high art but it's an amusing enough framing device for jokes.

This is what happens when you combine insane sexual repression with a complete lack of social skills or worldly knowledge.

Fan art is fun, and it is a good community building thing for a fanbase. However, (this is my personal opinion based on my beliefs so please don't attack me and take what I say as an attack against you) when you build a character for the sole reason of gender bending or colorfulness (Sex appeal and half nakedness to full nakedness, is what I mean) that seems a bit iffy to me. Bowsetta sounds like she could be a good character if these things were dropped. Think about it, she could be a sort of evil peach! Like a wa-peach. Maybe she could be bowser's wife or related to him in some way? She doesn't have to be sexy or bowser changing genders. I think it is more fun and clean that way and it doesn't get into the whole semi-pornographic way.
That is a good example of GOOD FUN NONCOLORFUL (you know what I mean) fanart. Nothing is explicit, it is taking a character (boo) and making it into a princess. It is a fun, cute visualization that adds to the mario fan universe. It makes me wonder what it would be like to have her in a game and what her personality is.

I honestly think more princesses in the mario universe would be cool. I mean, we only really have peach, daisy, rosalina, and pauline. They are all under utilized as is (except for peach, and rosalina to an extent) and Mario does travel to different worlds and kingdoms all the time. Why not go all super mario land and have him save someone else than peach?

Amusing.
But of all pics in this thread, the one in OP is the worst.
It is neither visually appealing, nor does it reveal the nasty nuance.

This is a weird meme but I’m really not at all surprise.. :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Maybe it’s time for a Bowsette neogaf profile picture.

  • Its impressive how quick people can pump out fanart based of off it, seeing as how this is done in the span of a mere week.
  • Its also part of the fanart community that has too much time on its hands to invest this kind of effort into these things.
  • Its already getting combined with other memes, like the Loss meme.
  • Could very well be added to Smash if Sakurai sees enough of it.
Not only that but Bowsette/Peachette is also bordering on soft erotic content and thus an NSFW label needs to be applied.

Guys, can we post cleaner art please? I really really don't want to look at a half naked bowser/peach hybrid. You can show and admire the fan made character all you want but please have it not be semi-pornographic. Can there be an nsfw tag like a spoiler tag?

Well, Bowser was always naked.

It's just now we get to appreciate his "feminine" side.

Oh, that completely justifies everything pornographic/erotic about this art. My mistake, he never wore clothes so him having huge breasts and being in lingerie in sexy poses is completely normal. Clearly this art is not meant to invoke passion and lead people to lust after a cartoon. /s

Really? Animal based cartoon characters like bugs bunny are always naked. Does that mean bugs should have his genitalia exposed to invoke sexual feelings? (The sad thing is that I wouldn't be surprised if there is porn of bugs bunny on the internet simply based on how fucked up (remember I use this word sparingly) the internet is).

Anyway, shouldn't we have fanart that is clean? It gets a lot more people on board and it is more fun to make fan art that doesn't involve sex. What is bowsette like? Is she evil or a good guy? There are literally TONS and TONS of things you can explore with her character that doesn't involve weird stupid sex stuff.
 
In a way I love gender bending (kinda have to since I'm into the Fate-franchise), though this seems more like if Bowser and Peach had a daughter. I like the design, so would've been an interesting kind of character for Nintendo to add to a game. Would preferably be in an RPG. Seems like she's the "gal" or delinquent trope, so could be really interesting. Could play on the same thing as the Thor and Loki tricking Trym by having Thor dressed up as Freya and marrying him, in order to get his hammer back. Perhaps Bowser genderbent and speciesbent for that reason, in order to get revenge on Mario in some way.

It blew up on Japan's twitter and pixiv

So um yeah...Honestly it doesn't bother me at all! Most of the art you are gonna find from Japan (if not all) you are gonna consider sexist or unclean just because of the default attire alone.

I liked the last one. Red hair makes more sense if it's Bowser, though it depends on what his endgame is. Claiming to be unknown half-sister of Peach and stealing the kingdom, then it's the one one the left. Simply gender/speciesbent Bowser, would be more like the one on the right. So would depend on the plot, I imagine.

Damn hentai is gonna be Sakurai's next and most prevalent problem. Never been a fan myself, but it seems weird that there's a huge allusion to softcore stuff around this subject, or "meme" if you will. Are we becoming less prone to in comfortability in these notions? Why must I hear of a new "meme" to be bombarded with hyper-sexual imagery... makes me wonder why we bother tackling that subject sometimes. Didn't really expect some photos to surface like this.
