Fictional characters[edit]

  • Loch Ness Monster: the rumored monster of Lake Yoshi is depicted in the signage like Nessie in a blurry photo.
  • Alice (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland): Alice and her playing card soldiers are a clear nod to Lewis Carrol's story.
  • Pinocchio (The Adventures of Pinocchio): the first part of "GO! GO! Mario Paint Theater!" is based upon the protagonist of Carlo Collodi's novel. A living marionette (called "puppet") who goes through a lot of misadventures on his transformative quest to become a real boy and reunite with his creator and father. His most distinctive trait, and focus of the section, is his iconic long nose that grows longer each lie Pinocchio tells.
  • Cinderella: the second part is instead a parody of the original Charles Perrault's version. It follows the story of a girl living with her stepfamily, who view her more as a servant than a family member (although, contrary to typical depictions, they are not abusive), until her fairy godmother gifts her a fancy dress to attend the royal ball that will disappear at midnight. While trying not to breach the curfew, she loses a glass slipper, which the Prince, who has fallen in love with her, will use to search for her.
