Johnson (Super Paper Mario)



Johnson is a Koopa Troopa in Super Paper Mario that falls under Nastasia's control.

While the Hammer Bro captain is trying to free the Koopa Troop, he encounters Johnson and another Koopa Troopa. They try to convince him to convert to Count Bleck's side, and the captain resists until Nastasia arrives and hypnotizes him. Nastasia then orders the captain to catch the rest of the minions that are not yet hypnotized, and he, Johnson, and the other Koopa Troopa head off to do so. The latter two then help chase down Peach, and they catch her on a ledge outside the castle, but she is teleported to safety at the last minute by Dimentio.

It is presumed his mind was changed back after the ending of the game.

Trivia

 * This is the only character named "Johnson" in the Paper Mario series to have an identifiable on-screen appearance, as the one from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door appears in a large group of X-Nauts from which he is indistinguishable and the one from Paper Mario: Color Splash is not actually seen due to only being mentioned.
 * Johnson is not given a name in the Japanese version.
