"'''King Scoopa Koopa'''" is the sixth episode of the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series.
"'''King Scoopa Koopa'''" is the sixth episode of the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series. This episode could be seen as social commentary on fast food franchises and obesity in the United States, which became a serious issue by the turn of the 21st century. It can also be a commentary on addiction, such as [[Luigi]] and [[Yoshi]] stealing a treasure chest to feed their unhealthy habit. This episode is notable for being the only episode where a [[Roulette Block]] and a [[Super Mushroom]] appear. Chronologically, this is the last episode to use [[Yoshi]]'s original design before being redesigned with a more anthropomorphic appearance that more closely resembles his official game artwork. Despite this, "[[The Night Before Cave Christmas]]" (episode 411), produced later than this episode (405), uses his original design.
