Francis

Francis is an enemy boss in the Wii video game Super Paper Mario. He is a nerdy butterfly/kitten-obsessed lizard who is the main boss of World 3 in Bit Land. During the events that take place in World 3, Francis kidnaps Tippi, thus making Mario and team go after him. Once Mario enters his lair, he'll notice how much of a "geek" he is, seeing that he collects multiple different things ranging from obscure anime to video games. He also acts rude toward Princess Peach, calling her things such as "hot babe" and so forth. Around his lair Mario will find miniature little kitten-robot servants (MeowMaids) that do all of his chores. Before you fight him, you enter a dating sim game with Princess Peach. He overuses the phrase "nerrrr...." and "That's so HIGH TECHNICAL!" and has no offline friends.

He attacks by camoflauging himself. Mario can see his shadow, however, when he flips dimensions. He can also call Meowbombs from the ceiling.

Trivia

 * One of Francis' animes features Tubba Blubba; additionally, some of Francis' posters have images of Bow, Bootler and Petuni on them. There's also several X-Naut related television shows and games, as well as a video-game featuring Larry Koopa. He owns several dolls of Petuni, Vivian, the Yoshi Kid in all colors, and Pennington from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He also wants an Excess Express train set, a Ms. Mowz doll with "real smooching action", a product called Cyborg Wart, a Magnus Von Grapple action figure, and a Tanooki Suit made with real Tanooki fur.


 * His first love was apparently an anime character.
