In ''The Adventures of the Super Mario Bros. 3'' and the ''Super Mario World'' animated series, Larry was known as Cheatsy Koopa and he was given a personality to match his name, as he was sneaky, unfair, and devious. For example, he attempts to double-cross Bowser in his attempt to obtain the Mushroom Kingdom from Princess Peach in "[[Never Koop a Koopa]]". He also eavesdrops on a conversation between [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]] in "[[The Yoshi Shuffle]]". It is also shown that he enjoys listening to music, as shown in the episode "Never Koop a Koopa", where he is ignoring his father's lecture and listening to music on a set of headphones. He seems to be sarcastic too, as shown in "[[Gopher Bash]]", he says ''Don't just help him! Stand there!'' to his minions. In the PC version of ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'', Larry is shown acting tough as the first guard, but shows cowardice once Luigi gains a [[Fire Flower]] and has the potential to destroy him. Like Ludwig, he is also into horror to some degree, as seen in ''Hotel Mario'', since the room that the player fights him in is called "Larry's Scary Lair". His hotel itself is very dark and the entrance states, "THIS MINE IS MINE". Larry's hotel tagline may also indicate a greedy side to him, since the name of the hotel shows that Larry is very possessive of his belongings. | In ''The Adventures of the Super Mario Bros. 3'' and the ''Super Mario World'' animated series, Larry was known as Cheatsy Koopa and he was given a personality to match his name, as he was sneaky, unfair, and devious.

While the games don't reveal much about the relationship between Larry and his siblings, both ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'' and the 3DS version of ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games'' reveal that Larry has some kind of admiration for Ludwig, whom he tries to imitate, although he still isn't able to replicate all his moves without getting dizzy. In the former game, he always fights with Ludwig in the battles and is never seen alone with his other siblings, furthermore he also shows more respect towards him than his brothers, calling him ''boss'' and accepting to have him as his lead even after Ludwig's leadership among the Koopalings has been questioned<ref>BeardBear (December 3, 2015).
